I dont know if anyone has mentioned this, but how Jaedong does tonight might have a big impact on the bidding. If he totally fails, teams are probably not going to bid as much on him, so a lesser team could pick him up.

But this could be just me wanting to see Jaedong on Estro.


Even if Jaedong gets 3-0'd, he's still the most valuable player around.

But his salary would be 30,000 less or something like that, and teams could lower the cost by double the amount his salary gets reduced.

max contract length is 3 years, just FYI

actually i'm not 100% sure but i heard it somewhere and it sounded plausible.

SKT1 with JD becomes the Real Madrid of SC.
And, tbh, I really want to see that :D

Looking at the money listed, it's pretty clear that FA hasn't helped players a single bit in terms of salaries. There's basically no competition unless the team doesn't really care if you come back(go.go) or if the team low balls you tremendously(Jaedong).

I'm still surprised Oz made such an insulting offer to Jaedong. I mean, we're only talking about a 25% bump up from Calm's new contract.

Well, there HAS to be some sort of a restriction, or else the loophole's way too obvious. Three years sounds about right.

Light told me that Jaedong would either join WeMade, Woongjin, STX or stay at OZ, as Samsung, KT and SKT dont have enough money to afford him. Meanwhile Guemchi also told me that Jaedong to Woongjin is quite possible.

Woot, good teams to go to imo without breaking PL balance. Zero/JD in the same team using gosu Zerg strats would be WIN. and with JD to practice with Zero will fix his ZvZ. They just need to pick up another T like gogo and theyll be kissing bottom 6 goodbye and will be kissing PL trophy. STX must have a crapload of money to afford JD though.

Edit: thanks for the info romad + who the hell are you to know Guemchi and Light and take inside info from them, you continue to surprise us.

Jaedong should go to CJ. It would have the most epic Zerg line-up ever.

that's interesting, i wonder where the players are getting the info. i wouldn't be surprised if coaches tell their players that they are pursuing jaedong to boost their morale

Oh my god, STX w/ Jaedong would just be god-mode. Team of the Swarm ©

Seems to me going to Wemade is pretty much the same as staying at Oz, in terms of talent level of teammates. STX already has by.hero and Calm. So Jaedong seems like a waste of money for them.

Jaedong joining Woongjin, however, would be awesome.

Damn Hwaseung representatives, you have the best player in the world, you've been using him heavily in your products' marketing and + Show Spoiler +
he's the Golden mouse holder
. Why can't you pay him what he deserves, but force him to look for another team instead? He wants to stay, just make an offer that is adequate to his contribution. You must realize that without him, no one will give a damn about OZ.

Man! I always thought that JD would stay at OZ forever and single handedly drag them on all by himself.But, JD joining Woongjin would be a great move for both him and the stars.

Damn I hope Fantasy will not share the same fate as Midas. Back when Midas was at his peak, there was Savior, the 4th Bonjwa. Now when Fantasy seems to be doing really well, Jaedong steps up and shows the world what he is made of.

As I understand it, it's not the pay, it's the team.

Anytime is with the Air Force.
fOrGG is with KT.
HiyA is a Protoss wrecking machine, but unreliable for anything else.
BackHo has moments of brilliance, but is unreliable for anything.
Lomo is good for nothing on the whole except annoying Zergs with wraiths and stealing the occasional TvT. (Okay, I'm being too hard on Lomo here, but I don't like him.)
OZ's junior Zergs suck.

Jaedong literally has no one on the team to practice with any more.

IMO, OZ's decision to let KT buy fOrGG off of them just bit them in the ass (well, actually it would have done that in PL playoffs when Lomo had to do his, "I'm a competent Terran, really," impression except that BeSt kind of threw that game away... anyway, getting off topic here).
