who the fuck is he.

i love how they are saying he will 'traveling to a large list of venues in the 2009 circuit' when there is virtually no notable events in korea except for the professional ones.

probably just some d+ chump

Haha, I know right? This guy was a huge SK.wc3 fanboy and now he's switching over to SC. It's either Frag Dominant has no knowledge in the SC scene or they just want to be a huge multigaming team to attract sponsors.

on second thought, I am going with fenix on this one.

Yeah I am going to have to agree w/ya there. Remember in the scforall game of fenix vs idra? Daniel Lee mentioned he wanted to see more of Fenix. Plus he is pretty young as well.

The only other one I can think of is F91. If you check out his iccup stats, he plays a lot of koreans and has managed to get A- right now, so that's pretty incredible. Not sure how old he is though.

Fenix seems to have disappeared lately though (?)
Haven't seen him in many major tournaments/ladder/stamina/whatever.

F91 is >20 and is married.
He is definitly not a good pick for a Korean team + they will ruin his style and it would be so so sad

After 4 pages of speculation, do we know if this is real, or it's just an unconfirmed rumor?

I'd also like to know that.

Enough of protoss, let's hope it's a zerg.

unless Artosis is in the business of lying to the Starcraft community, it's real. What's not confirmed is whether the player has accepted or not.

I think that ESTRO would look for someone with decent mechanics and then teach them how to play. So Dinot would be an awful pick. < 200 APM zerg ? The only foreigner that a proteam may pick with such low APM is Mondragon, becuase he's very known and established around the bw universe. Fenix, Castro, Deska and maybe even ClouD or JF. I call JF last bcuz even though he obviously the best player there, I think the previous 3 would be more attractive to ESTRO becuase of their mechanics or potential i.e. APM. Not saying that Jf couldn't raise his APM if he really wanted to. I hope its JF !!!

Din0t would be a great pick, very strong zerg in all matchups, and hes young. Language barrier might be awkward, but I'm sure they could get by.

JF and Mondragon are the only two foreigners that I honestly think have progamer potential. It's a shame that neither of them seem to be interested.

I'm really at a loss as to who else it could be. I guess Strelok would be a good choice, but I agree with the sentiment that they're more likely to pick up a Protoss or Zerg.

Edit: Now that I've thought about it for awhile Dreiven seems plausible. I see Fenix is being thrown around a lot- was Daniel Lee really that impressed? I never thought Fenix was one of the best.

to be honest they probably aren't so concerned about their current skill since everything will change so fast - I remember in a video on scforall of idra going to get dinner and daniel said he wasn't so concerned about the skill level but more on their legitimate reasons for going to korea
