Lyn retirement
EDIT: To all those who state whatever / he might as well retire / others will rise to his level - you are all ignorant and/or delusional. There are only 4 players left that are at the very top of the food chain, and with Lyn leaving this game will begin its decline into nothingness.

So, Lyn has a little while ago voiced that he wants to retire after a few demoralizing losses. He has also declined invitation to the ongoing B Cup 15. He has already taken vacation not long ago, so that is off the table for being the reason he’s doing this.
I don’t think that the community as a whole understands how big impact this will have on the scene. If Lyn is gone then that will essentially leave Forti, Happy and eer0 dominating all tournaments - meaning only 2 races will reign supreme, giving almost zero variation in matchups at the very top level. We will either see HU vs. UD or UD vs. UD in the vast majority of grand finals.
What can we as community do in order to hopefully convince him to remain active?
