The big question is still unanswered how much resources/manpower are the teams going to invest in sc1 when sc2 comes out. Cleaning the team of "bad" gamers to save costs and to invest these resources into the upcoming "market" called Sc2/B.net 2.0 sounds reasonable. Oh well who knows what the big sponsor said and how the financial situation is. Thats why we need some insider infos :D I personally am reaaaaally curios how it all play out in the end. | ||

Guess what, SKT T1 falls directly in the "marketing cost" category. If SKT is really that worried about cash...I am kinda worried about Boxer's contract with SKT. According to Hyuk, Boxer is still being paid something like $150,000 a year due to the contract he signed after leaving ACE. His contract expires this year...and he has not exactly contributed to SKT's win rate other than coaching. | ||

He might get paid less, but they can't drop him because he's pretty important because of his fanbase. B teamers won't be that big of a deal however. | ||
