Well, the bidding period extends until after OSL finals, and I'm guessing that since it's JD's parents, and not JD himself that has a problem with Hwaseung, the team will still let him prepare for OSL with them and cheer him on until then.

He sure carried the whole of OZ by himself, and deserves more rest, but still, it would be hard for me to get used to seeing him in another team. He was raised in OZ, and atm he is OZ. I can understand his mother's concerns though. Does this mean for sure that Jaedong is actually going to leave, or can Hwaseung still bid for him? If they can still bid for him, it might not mean Jaedong leaving, but rather that he gets the much higher salary that he deserves (from his mother's comments, it seems like they feel that he's being underpaid by Hwaseung). | ||

Hwaseung made an offer (which I'm sure is pretty good) and apparently promised to resign Jaedong with these exact conditions (whatever they may be) in case he doesn't reach an agreement with a different team. They didn't have to do that; if a player doesn't reach an agreement with his original team before FA negotiations with other teams and doesn't get signed by a different team the old team can pretty much force the player to accept whatever contract, because otherwise he'd end up as non-contracted semi-pro and wouldn't be able to play any professional leagues. So for Jaedong it's pretty much win-win. He will either get a new team due to some sick offer or resign with Hwaseung after the FA negotiations under conditions which I am sure are better than his current ones. | ||

(Yes you too kona) I'm sorry, but SKT has no place for Jaedong. Know why? Jaedong goes to SKT, there is no way he will be able to shine as a star. SKT1 has such a strong Terran heritage and an S-class Protoss. In having Fantasy, you can see how much screen time the rest of the players get. The more recent line-ups has been a Canata-Fantasy-Bisu locomotive that plows through every other line-up. Best hardly gets any screen time and who can blame SKT? Best is not playing as well as he was at his peak. Either zerg player SKT pays is fielded because it is mandatory to have every race represented. I still seriously think Hyuk's win against Jaedong was partly a fluke (one can argue that it was a build order loss, yada, but everyone knows Jaedong's capacity to neutralise the initial advantage with his drone micro). Jaedong needs to shine. Comes from hauling Oz through every situation. Where else can he get the arrogance to make such remarks as "Week of Jaedong" (Even I thought this was ludicrous, but I'm a Fantasy fan.) SKT1 will not offer him as much chances to shine as Oz did. Why? Because SKT fans will root for their favourite players. Jaedong won't be a necessity, but a luxury. Imagine chat in kona's livestream Randomguy1: "Fantasy's up first" kona: "F*** YEAH!~!!111!" JaedongFan: "Jaedong's playing in fourth set gusy" Randomguy2: "It won't even make it that far geez fantasy bisu canata already got this" JaedongFan kills himself Sorry, but in a bo5 in Proleague, Jaedong won't even get the screen time a player of his class should get. I am pretty sure with Boxer back in his throne, SKT has upped the bias for its Terran players. Jaedong's talent will be misplaced in SKT. Jaedong for CJ imo. Why? Effort and Jaedong will sweep PL and Kwanro will pull out the odd win. Why CJ? Because SKT v CJ would fucking be fucking balls to the fucking walls awesome. Why? Because fucking TvZ is the most fucking exciting matchup ever. Jaedong for CJ please! | ||

It's like if messi went to manchester city he would not be star because machester city already got tevez and wright-phillips and santa-cruz. he would not get as much attention bc fans and manager likes british people. also i mean, he would never get the ball because he be on bench till city won LOL. | ||

With too many egos, there would be far less pressure on Jaedong to perform. Less pressure, and he will get complacent. With absolutely no backup whatsoever, of course, he could burn out. So don't send him to, say, MBC. I think he's fine where he is. | ||

No doubt they will put Jaedong in the lineup and sweep all the opponents, but what's the point? Where's the drama and tension? Would you rather hear "Jaedong match win against Canata's BBS from a 12 hatch deficit, SKT CJ 2-2 TIED WTF NERDRAGE FU CANATA STICK TO STANDARD PLX" or "SKT stomps some poor other team and the poor team went home crying, expected." @ STX Too bad go.go had to go, I think the STX quarterfinalists grew really close after knocking one another out in OSL. | ||

Because fucking TvZ is the most fucking exciting matchup ever. Jaedong for CJ please! I agree with what you just said, especially the part where Terran being the dominant force in SKT. However if JD ever comes to SKT, I'm pretty sure their line-up will be nothing else but Bisu/Fantasy/Jaedong (in no particular order). Unless Jaedong isn't in a good form, there is no way in hell SKT coach will leave him on the bench. Reasons are: 1. JD has a ridiculous winning rate. For SKT as a progaming team, I believe winning is the most important factor (hell, they even cheesed in the ace match of SPL Grand Finals .../sarcasm_off). I'm not saying Canata or Best aren't any good. They can win, sure, but JD fucking dominates! 2. If SKT ever to offer JD a contract, it'll be a huge one. Will SKT let their biggest investment (possibly) rotting on the bench? Doubt that. 3. JD has a huge fan base. 4. JD's mom will drop-kick the coach and rub his weiner on shattered glass if her son is not a regular (j/k). | ||
