They were doing what they had to do. The only time I can think of where there is genuine tension between players is when something like the tossgirl/yellow thing, where yellow lost and people accused him of sexual relations or some shit. But in reality, I'm certain jd/fantasy don't hate each other. edit: and what if two teammates meet each other in individual leagues? After one loses, does he go home and beat up the winner? Of course not. Lol ETT, good I'm not the only one. It's also their job. and while yes you understand the other is doing what they have to do, it would still probably make you angry.... | ||

He's built this team from the ground up - and so it's not like he's a terrible coach... just mishndled this situation haha I totally agree. He is obviously a pretty good coach considering they got 2nd place in PL this year with JD, and the failcrew. Obviously he arranged some smart sniping, and consistently at that. | ||

I think JD will still be playing under Oz I guess.. Just speculating. :D Edit: he will never feel the same bond he had with the players in OZ with the other teams I guess. Just look at ET's post were Bisu perfectly fits T1 but he isn't T1 material. It's just like that OZ is JD and JD is OZ as of the moment. And like the reports said: JD still wants to play for OZ, its just his parents that wants him to gtfo | ||

I'd love to see him and Flash together. Also, spending hours and hours together practicing every day- and discussing theory/mechanics... I think would elevate both their game play and and at the same time catipult KT to at least #3. | ||

There is probably huge pressure on JD to stick with Oz no matter the bid. It could take the team years to recover from losing him unless they themselves buy good players. | ||

I don't get why people constently underrate Luxury. He's a top 3 zerg player when he's on, an MSL winner as well as a the winner of the World Cyber Games. He recently knocked Calm out of the WCG qualifiers. He's every bit as good as his brother Yarnc if not better! With a player like that, why in the world would KT want to spend bank on Jaedong? And don't give me 'because Luxury sucks' because he doesn't. -_- To me, the best fit for Jaedong would be Khan because they have needed a great zerg (haha NPI) for a while now. | ||

Seriously 200 million isn't much at all unless the viewership of SC is MUCH lower than I would imagine. | ||

There is absolutely no reason that these companies couldn't throw down MUCH more than 200 million won for a player like JD. I would think the publicity JD would bring them would be huge and well worth the money. Seriously 200 million isn't much at all unless the viewership of SC is MUCH lower than I would imagine. It's more like 500 million If they bid 200 million since they have to pay the teams double the bid and pay the player the bid. Jaedong in SKT1 might destroy Proleague, not only would they have a top player from each race but those top players would be practicing against each other all the time, making them even more deadly. Also I initially thought this had something to do with Jaedong and Frozen Arbiter as well  | ||

Signing Jaedong for your team would be like signing Michael Jordan to your basketball team. | ||

On the other hand, of these 4 teams, the one that needs the most a zerg is SKT. I think KT still has confidence in Luxury, like me. At individual level, Bisu and fantasy are already good against zergs, so JD would benefit more. That would be awesome for SC, especially zerg, appreciators. But does he really need them for this matter? Back to team talk, SKT would be farther than they already are. In the future, that would be nice to remember. But this would ruin proleague for me, as I prefer competitive leagues. In conclusion, I'd rather see Oz picking another reliable player. Don't know the possibilities of it happening, though. | ||
