I wonder if WeMade is a viable alternative - they didn't appear shy to spend money in order to boost their lineup, e.g. when signing Nada or Moon in Wc3.

Isn't WeMade considering pulling sponsorship from BW if Avalon doesn't succeed. I forgot where I heard that though...

Jaedong declares Free Agency!!!


According to an unnamed source from OZ (remember this is OZ's version), Jaedong wanted to stay with OZ, but there his parents had some disagreement with the team. Some fans speculate this is just parents' greed, trying to cash in on their son. The source also revealed that they would offer JD the same contract if he failed to sign with another team.
You have to be kidding me who doesn't want Jaedong on there team his a monster.

Jaedong should join Wemade since wemade zerg SUCKS!

This is really win-win for Jaedong. I'm certain Hwaseung already made a really good bid. With the way the system works (thanks Kespa for being fucking stupid) he'd normally have to renegotiate with his old team if he didn't sign with a new one, but the old team would have all the trump cards and could basically resign him for free, because otherwise he'd end up as semi-pro for the time being, lol. Now, if this offer by Hwaseung is true it gives him a pretty sound security net.

I can't be sure without transparent salaries for every player, but looks like the big story of the FA period so far is "how the hell are Kal and Hwasin getting so overpaid?"

I suspect they are both pwning Calm from day to day in the STX house, so they didnt settle for any less;)

There's no way Jaedong isn't getting signed with another team at this point, I'd think. However, that's pretty cool of them, seeing as if he somehow wasn't signed, they could completely ream him contract wise.

If what he said it's true (I'm talking about the person who said the rumou abotu that), the reason can be personal. He said "parents aren't gree with some things from Hwaseung". If it's true, we can understand his reasons to sign with another team.

I hope Jaedong heads to SKT. They need a more reliable zerg in the lineup than Hyuk and Fantasy/Jaedong/Bisu would be gg to every other team in proleague.

Midas seeking a new team? I feel sorry for him, he was such an awesome player back then...

Wonder if he would go back to CJ?

Would that really be all that fun to watch? Really it would be more fun if he balanced out another goodish team.

From original thread:
*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...

I think Wemade do have a good chance of picking up JD, they've shown in the past how much they're willing to pay for players they want (see; nada & moon) and their zerg lineup isn't great, though I do love shine :3

I can't believe that Jaedong would want to leave Oz, he seems to have such a great relationship with the other players and the coaching staff. Gonna be sad to see him go to one of the other soul-less progaming teams. Parental pressure would make the most sense but that still blows for Jaedong (don't pretend whatever team signs him isn't going to ride as hard as he was on Oz, maybe they'll be less dependant but he'll still be playing the same ridiculous number of games)

If JD joins up with SKT1 we can all say that proleague is gonna be imbalance for 2 years unless they release fantasy or bisu to another team

What's Hwaseung without Jaedong? good call by Jaedong anyways, which ever team that he gets into, i just hope its not another one that depends their performance on just a single player. That guy is over over overworked...

I would love if MBC shelled out some serious money and got Bisu back.
