C’est aujourd’hui que BabyKnight annonce l’arrêt sa carrière Starcraft 2 pour retourner sur Dota 2. En effet BBK est à l’origine un joueur pro de dota. On peut comprendre cette envie de retourner sur son ancien MOBA quand on voit l’annonce du prize pool de The International atteignant actuellement plus de 6 Millions de $ !
Cette nouvelle handicape son équipe Millenium sachant qu’il était l’un des meilleurs joueurs de la line up, et que celle-ci participe à l’Acer Teamstory Cup organisée par TaKeTV.net.
Communiqué de Babyknight :
Today marks the end of a big part of my life. Today, I am no longer a StarCraft II pro gamer. This has been one of the toughest decisions I’ve ever had to make, and I’ve taken a lot of time to think about it to make sure it is the right one.
Recently, I started playing DotA again, and I realized that right now this is the game that I can play for almost unlimited amount of hours with no breaks. Whereas StarCraft II has become to me, a game that I have to force myself really hard to play. It’s not that I’ve lost all my passion for StarCraft. It really isn’t. I still love the game, the community and the tournaments. The problem is, if I don’t practice, I can’t do well enough in tournaments to satisfy myself. I get really depressed and it’s just not a healthy situation.
I used to be able to play 6-10 hours a day easily, in WoL when I was incredibly motivated, and it showed in my results. Even though I never won a big tournament, I had some really solid finishes at the biggest tournaments.
I’m sorry to all the fans who still cheer for me in SC2, I hope you will continue through my transition into DotA 2, and know that I really really appreciate you all! <3
I will play my WCS matches while I’m still part of the system, but if/once I’m knocked completely out (of Challenger) you probably won’t be seeing me play StarCraft II for quite some time. I will try out the game when Legacy of the Void comes out, but I can’t promise I will be back.
