Title says it all. I rarely see him tweet or get mentioned. this is a trend for pretty much all of 2013 thus far.
I thought he was a great dude and a good player!
Does anyone know whats he's up to?
Is he still a member of TL? Will we ever see him again?
I really just wanna know whats going on with this incredibly manner person!
UPDATE FROM SHETH:
On July 06 2013 12:00 Liquid`Sheth wrote:Hi guys. I wrote two more blogs that I didn't put up, because they just didn't feel quite right. I know I need to put out more information like "Well I'm retired" or "Its looking positive". But right now my hands just aren't at the point I can come back to play and honestly I'm scared to say I'm retired. Its a scary thing. I don't want to leave e-sports and I don't want to go into casting, but at the same time, my hands hurt way too much when I play sc2 to consider going back to it atm. I can play xbox games on a controller, or even a little of other games like League or Dota or whatever, but whenever I play even 2-3 games of SC2 my hands end up killing me that entire week. I'd love to have had that fixed by now. Its been over 6 months sense I had this hand problem. However I guess things don't always go as planned. I'm going to start part time college shortly. I'm trying all I can to fix the hand problem, but its sad because I just don't have any great news. I still follow the scene as much as I can, and root for my team mates. As for diet, its still fairly similiar to my last blog, So nothing great on that front. Just in a place where I'm really sad about my hands, because SC2 was my life. And by no longer being able to play games, or go to events I kind of lost a lot of friends, or at least interaction with friends. So just going on and hoping in the future. If you have any questions I'll do my best to answer em here. Sorry its not great news, but not too much I can do with hands like this. I will say over the past few months they've been getting better. For a week or two they've been feeling great, but then I played a few SC2 games and it went from no pain to lots of pain. So it seems very SC2 related rather then just typing on the computer or playing other games. I'm taking lots of supplements for my hands, and just trying/tried so many things for them. Anyway thanks for still having an interest in me even though I haven't released much information lately. I obviously still read TL all the time and love this community

Eaxtly, it had links to any relevant information, and was closed for a good reason. A second thread of similar nature will likely end the same way

Actually I closed the other thread because it ended with terrible "source!?!" and "inb4" jokes. Leaving this open until posting becomes "meh" again
|
Ah, I figured nothing has changed since then, but you have the power ^_^
Edit: Also I apologize if my reply sounded rude, too many bad games of Counter Strike today

This thread may be the same topic, but after skimming it; I don't really see an answer. I know you probably think you contributed to this thread, but you did not even take the time to suggest a response, likely only ran a quick search with the title. thanks I guess if im way off, but all I see is puma discussion
Edit: in response to astroorion; I didnt mean to come off as rude in response. I just felt the need to defend my post! Sorry man!

You are 100% correct, I did a simple search which usually can answer such a simple question, but I didn't get the right thread. He did a blog update a while ago which I can't seem to find, but this Reddit comment seems to be the most up to date

Almost too long I think!
I wanna know whats going on with him, even if it's nothing exciting. I just care about our pros!

hmm this does say a great deal about the situation. It makes me wonder, why is it just these short updates from him? seems weird to say but it feels like he/teamliquid are taking advantage of esports dollars to support someone who (while trying to get better and who will eventually contribute I'm sure) will eventually stall out and not offer the same thing they once did. Wouldent this support be better invested in someone else?

I'm no professional, but I'm assuming since he's on break he's not getting paid at all, or very little. Maybe if he was streaming or contributing he might be getting paid, but I don't think he is.

Agreed, if he hopes to come back now, its going to be purely of the hype of who he once was. I want an answer! I want a convincing reason why he has been gone so long!!

That Source thread was really fun.
I thought Sheth was gonna do more blogs but he hasn't since like Frebrurrauary.

It would be based on the contract he had signed with teamliquid, something none of us here would have any knowledge of as TL likes to keep them private between themselves and the players.

I don't know what exactly he is up to but he still posts on reddit and was even in the Blizzard Community AMA on /r/starcraft.

I miss you Sheth
But dont you dare come back before you are ready!

Good point! He's been gone for so long I forgot he was even gone :-O

Dont you agree he should at least be around!!? In my opinion occasionally commenting on reddit hardly says anything!
