Well they deserve it. He worked so hard while go.go/Yarnc/Justin fixed matches. I'm not surprised that he's disappointed in his team and wants to leave.

is there a salary cap or can any team sign leta as long as they're willing to fork out the money?


the latter, ktf were notorious back in the day for buying then the most popular players who end up ultimately failing (think los galaticos of real madrid)

Which could mean the end of Sparkyz. Personally, I'd rather he stick around if those are the stakes. The team needs time to grow again, not their ace player to leave.

and oh shit, not only are leta and lomo both infatuated with jaedong, they are both known for wraith micro!!

one day all the star players left this team to join much richer teams. it appeared the team was on the verge of collapsing failing to qualify for many team leagues and players lacking motivation.

but they persisted on, grew some of the most influential talent ever to grace the bw scene and eventually won a proleague.

guess who it was

TBH the only team I can see wanting Hyuk would be Hite. Or else he stays with SKT.

I can see Hyuk going to Hite and Leta staying with Hite as a valid option

'It' wasn't involved in the biggest scandal to happen in esports in a decade. IMO Hite needs stability now.

Not to say this as a KT fan but I think KT might pick up Leta, even. They have a salary gap from kicking out Luxury and they're similar class gamers. The same goes for STX and Hwasin.

That said, ANY team Leta joins will instantly be a playoff contender. He is a damn great player and almost every team besides maybe wemade would hugely benefit from him.

Leta Hiya Lomo Jaedong would be a nice lineup. Not too early to rule out STX or CJ though.

Im sure Hite has freed up plenty of cash when they dropped the players from the scandal.

I hope Hyuk stays with SKT. Imagine you are a fan of some other team and that team gets Hyuk and then he Hyuks things up. How mad would you be?

If he moves from SKT, hopefully it's to oz so he can replace Killer the zerg failure.

Wow.... i knew that Oz was a hugely different team at one point, but i didn't know it was quite like this.

GL sparkx..... But i dont know how much i will be able to root for them, they are going to be the worst team. Horang2 for ace...? nope.

Teams i can see NOT getting leta:
KT: already 2 very solid terrans.
Estro: too poor... and they have Really, they would need any other race first.
ACE: because thats not how it works.
CJ: They have a very solid field already, including a pretttyyyy good terran (skyhigh), They are already raising their own b-teamers.
MBCGameHero: any other race, yes, but they already have 2 A+ terrans.
FOX: Lollll you gotta have some diversity.... SOME.

Maybes:
STX: Seeing as how solid they were, they probably want to develop their own terrans again, instead of buying new ones.
STK: they are rich... they might, but i feel like getting Leta would not solve their problems haha.
OZ: as much, oh god, as much as i want it. (i want it so bad) OZ has a semi decent terran lineup, hiya and backho still needs to grow for OZ to improve fundamentally.

Most Likely:
Stars: I know least about the MBC coaching style to make an accurate prediction, but unlike other lines where the Terrans have been getting better, Woongjin terrans have been pretty bad, and they need the boost that they could get from leta. (unlike STK and STX) Leta would help them greatly.
Khan: Leta is exactly what they need since FBH left. it would catapult them with some smart coaching into top 4 teams imo.

Hyuk: who really cares... he won't effect any team besides sparkyz significantly.

OTOH if Leta goes to a different team I will probably start rooting for that team. Here's hoping he ends up happy with wherever he ends up!

My guess is he stays with hite.

STX can afford Leta and they do desperately need a solid Terran in their lineup. Bogus/Notice and Last? are terrible, not to mention Frozean. Though the first 3 are still considered rookies IMO.

i want to see leta on STX. he would benefit a ton from practicing with players like calm and kal and it would give STX a true A-class terran.

this would instantly make STX a true top3 team as well imo.


i can see him moving to KHAN as well, because as many others have previously mentioned, they need a #1 terran after FBH and frozean both left. moving to KHAN would allow leta to get improve his TvP to a sick level after practicing with jangbi and stork every day.

Ahh a legitimate free agency now. I wish there were long contracts.

Everyone is talking about leta going to Kt or Oz, but what about khan? They need a terran lol.
