Neeb is leaving the team to “focus purely on his studies.”4 Posts
A player with a ridiculous skill ceeling. He wasn’t always “there” for every event, but when he was truly in the kitchen, almost nobody could take the heat.

You brought me great joy and, at time, great heartache 😀
Good luck. Come back to visit.

I remember Scarlett writing on twitter in like 2016 that Neeb had god tier skills and I was like “huh, who?” and then he had his bloom in 2017!
GG Neeb, enjoy uni!

Probably just wanted/was required to finish his contract with Onside for the WTL.
I’d expect him to still play in the EPT tour next year.
Is there anyone who’s full time in NA now btw? Are Scarlett and Astrea full time?

In SC2, yes.
In all of SC, no.
To be fair, Grrrr…won his OSL in 2000 and that was a completely different era in esports.
When Neeb was focusing on the game first and foremost he was a frickin’ beast.
Hell, he was still the undisputed #1 in the US even playing part-time.
He will be missed.

Slayer (norwegian player) won that huge KBK Masters tournament in 2000 also.
