C9KD Curious announces retirement from competitive Overwatch

Curious has announced his retirement from professional Overwatch, stating that he will now be playing PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS professionally. Curious recently competed with Cloud9 KongDoo in Apex Season 4 as a substitute.

Curious joined KongDoo's Overwatch division after wNv.KR disbanded. He played with KongDoo Uncia in the BigFile Overwatch Battleroyal and the Nexus Cup - Summer 2017 before joining Panthera for Apex Season 4. His contributions to the team as a DPS sub were generally positive, although the team failed to match their Season 3 performance in which they were runners up.

The KongDoo Panthera roster was signed by Cloud9, owners of the London Overwatch League franchise, during Season 4. However, Curious' announcement comes after failing to be signed to the organisation's Overwatch League franchise. Curious will join fellow Korean Luna in the PUBG scene, with Luna also recently announcing his retirement from Overwatch.
