I wouldn't mind seeing Jaedong on Samsung or hite.
That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.

This FA kills all nostalgia the starcraft scene had... Midas switching? I know he had to go as low as playing Minor league, but thats not SKT's fault.

Jaedong moving to another team (im guessing SKT1.. just a gut feeling) will make that team imba. If its SKT1, then its surely going to be imba XD.

I hate FA..

The system Kespa devised is absolutely retarded, but I don't understand how anyone can think players switching teams is a bad idea :<

yeah you are right i guess... but i dont see why Midas would switch teams.. not SKT's problem that he is playing poorly.. or maybe it is. Generally it is the player's problem. Who knows.

I hope Midas finds a decent team and plays well again. Last year he played pretty good for a while and then started crashing again, wtf. Sad to see him leave SKT though.

I had a bad feeling Midas would leave SKT but then again we probably wouldn't get to see him play over Fantasy and the current form of Canata =(

I think the answer has been mentioned too many times in this thread...
1. Jaedong becomes super awesome due to perfect training partners.
2 .Proleague becomes shitty.

Thus, Khan deserves JD more. <3

*REPAYMENT RULES*
Teams that wish to acquire free agents must A) Repay 200% of the the progamer's annual salary to their original team, or B) Repay 100% of the progamer's annual salary to the original team, and give one player to the original team (excluding six players on their protected players list). Progamers who earn less than 50,000,000 Won a year are excluded from the repayment rule.


How does the protected players list work? Does the team choose 6 players to protect? Looks like Oz will be getting a new player soon. Who in the right mind will want to pay Oz 200% of Jaedong salary as well as paying Jaedong an increased salary as well...

Why is nobody discussing this?

I love Khan and its players, I really do, however I don't think it's the best place for Jaedong. Khan has a very light training schedule and the team seems to have a lack of discipline.

Examples:
1. January's PMS session.

Because if Jaedong does in fact switch teams the only thing OZ might get is a marginal player or some young player who they think may have a lot of potential. Either way there isn't much to speculate about, as we don't know much about how coaches view other teams mid to low level players in terms of talent.
