“Hey guys, it’s been a while.
I just wanted to let everyone know I’m going to do my military service.
I wanted to end on a high note by finishing with a GSL title before I retire and go to the military. But I failed to keep the promise I made to the fans and let them down, and that has weighed me down a lot.
After falling short in the GSL, I thought a lot about going to the military, asked around for advice, and I finally made up my mind.
I’m sincerely sorry to all the fans for not living up to their expectations and support. However, if there is a new RTS, or still a Starcraft 2 scene, I promise I’ll return.
I’ll always be grateful for the love and support I got from being a professional Starcraft 2 player and try to keep my chin up in the military. Nothing’s confirmed, but I’m hoping to go between January and March. Until I ACTUALLY go, I want to use the time I have left in a meaningful way by streaming on Twitch and communicating with the fans, having fun and leaving all stress behind”

He doesn’t owe us fans anything. We are only hopeful, not expectful.
He has repeatedly said that he felt stressed by professional competition, that he had the weight of expectation on his mind.
His promise to his fans is not a commitment to us, only to himself.
PartinG, please take care of yourself!

This is kinda expected considering how Parting has dissapeared in large tournament since Code S S3. Now I kinda feel bad for Protoss in the coming IEM, unless Classic and Hero can get enough EPT points to make it.
Let hope herO win ST so that Trap does not feel alone when coming to the stage next year.

Let it be known,
that Aiur’s son,
of great renown,
will ever shine in gilded bars,
a stalwart place amoungst the stars.
But soft the sun,
may rise again,
and then the one,
may seek revenge,
and woe betide your nat and main,
when you are pancaked by the train.

Not so suprising from watching his streams.
GL Parting, my favourite player.

Commend him for all of his achievements and years throughout the near-decade he’s been playing.
