MIsO are all very close to contributing heavily in proleague. Hydra got some pretty rave reviews from FBH recently, who played him in both preliminaries, Devil was damn close to qualifying for the MST before KeSPA stepped in, and MisO was a game away from an MST appearance as well. It should be interesting to see which one fills the gap as CJ's 2nd Zerg.

Don't know why CJ would do this =/ I wasn't the biggest Kwanro fan, but Kwanroll is just too awesome to give up. Maybe they did this because Kwanro eliminated Iris in some kind of league that will not be named because it never happened. Hopefully Savior picks up the slack and Devil, and Hydra start raping. An Oversky return would be nice as well.

Oh man I'm gonna miss Kwanro...I wasn't a fan of him at first, but then he sort of just grew on me, with the way he randomly wins games. I hope this means more MJY time

Hmmm... I wonder how this will affect my decision to but Zero in my FPL team.. Seems like he might not be getting the same amount of play that I originally envisioned.

I'm a bit mystified by this as well. Kwanro will see more play on Woongjin, and if he wanted it that badly, then sure, I guess, though CJ's depth seems to have taken a beating lately. Their Protoss lineup sans-Much looks flimsier (Movie is good but inconsistent, Snow hasn't proven he can deliver yet, nbs is consistent(ly terrible). Their Zerg lineup is still stacked, and the prospects promising, but trading Kwanro off just as his play finally evolved to the level CJ must have wanted it to reach seems bizarre.

Though, remember the talk about CJ looking to make a big acquisition during Free Agency? Perhaps they've freed up some cash toward hiring another really big gun.

Too bad CJ didn't get free in return, Movie needs a good mentor. Isn't Iris and Kwanro really tight? man, players being traded is just sad.

How does this work in terms of a player's contract and salary? If two teams and the player agree are they free to just transfer the contract from one team to another? Did Woongjin have to give CJ anything?

This is exactly the push I needed to become a full Stars fan. Kwanro/Zero/GanZi/PianO/MVP are some of my favourite players

edit: and how can I forget Crazy-Hydra :D

Seems like a bad trade for CJ, but a good one for Stars. Dunno why they would trade away their second best zerg when the only other zergs besides Effort who are somewhat decent are relatively new players, but I guess they might have shown great progress during in-house training.
Hopefully Oversky will get to play more because of it, but that's probably as likely as Savior getting a shot.
