- In Team KHAN, there are two players, Stork and Jangbi who have joined the transfer market. These two players have gotten similar records in both 08-09 season and 09-10 season, but because their team didn't make it to the post season, they got a salary cut. Because of this, they are looking to transfer to a different team - Team D is looking to recruit player Stork, and Team E is also looking to recruit player Stork and Jangbi. Meanwhile, Team F is even considering trading their team's Ace, Player G, in order to get player B. Team D is also looking to bolster their weakest race line up, as they are also looking to recruit player G, along with player Stork. - Team KHAN's Manager January had a different opinion during the salary negotiations with Samsung's main players, Stork and Jangbi. Because of this, he has revealed desire to retire. He argued that the players should get a raise, or even have the same salary, the Team strongly disagreed after revealing that they wished to cut their salary. Manager January, after his contract ended in August 31st, had left the team and has been resting at home. [note, original korean did not specify a gender] - Team F, in order to bolster their coaching staff, is looking to recruit Coach J, who has coached in Team I before. They are currently negotiating. Omitting the coaching improvements, as they are unconnected. Assuming A = Samsung, B = Stork, C = Jangbi, the most important question is who the teams are. The most interconnected statements are: - Team F would trade its ace player G in order to get B (Stork); Team D is looking at G in order to bolster their weakest race lineup. Who has severely lacking race lineups? Who would trade their ace player? The one team that comes to my mind that would get rid of their ace player might be WeMade. WeMade doesn't have a distinct ace player and Baby failed to deliver in the playoffs. But would they really trade away their greatest talent? Also it's possible that G is merely "a" Ace player, so it could be Hwaseung's Hiya. Trading Hiya for Stork would make sense. In any case, since most teams have Terran aces, and since G is an ace player, it makes me think that team D is Woongjin stars. They would really benefit from another good Protoss and their Terran lineup is terrible. WeMade being E would make sense. Their Protoss lineup is subpar, besides a sometimes well-performing Pure. Also, the two teams that have shown most activity in transfers, besides the telecommunication ones, have been WeMade and Woongjin, and both have been on the rise. MBC usually uses its own talent. Samsung and Hwaseung have been stagnant. eSTRO and hite underfunded and unsuccessful So, conjecture: D= Woongjin E= Wemade F= Hwaseung G= Hiya | ||

just want to say one thing, If team F really is OZ, the player is JD. I mean, talking about Hyia, he played like one ace match the whole season - calling him an Ace player is a bit too much. Altough I agree that it would be stupid if OZ considered selling JD to get Stork. | ||

On another note, team E being interested in both players really suggests, if they are indeed interested in housing both players, a team with room to grow - my money's on Hite (and their 6 man A-team). | ||

Or maybe Killer, he did play 3 ace matches Yeah I don't think they would trade Jaedong. I don't want them to trade Hiya either don't' care about killer as he's not much of a killer (oh yes a great joke I made)  | ||

Team D is looking to recruit player Stork Team E is also looking to recruit player Stork and Jangbi. Team F is even considering trading their team's Ace, Player G, in order to get Stork. Team D is also looking to bolster their weakest race line up, as they are also looking to recruit player G, along with player Stork. Unless they simply use ace to refer to any of their main players (which just sounds weird), it makes no sense for it to be Hwaseung. Even if it did and G was, infact, Hiya, that wouldn't really improve Oz much. You'd lose your only good Terran to go from 2.5 players back to 2.5 players, even if those 2.5 were a little better than before. I'm sold on A being Khan and B/C Jangbi. The possible teams here are: CJ Entus eSTRO & Hite Hwaseung Oz KT Rolster MBCGame Hero SKT STX WeMade Woongjin The wording makes me think that Player G is not Protoss. The Zerg aces are Jaedong and Effort and neither of them will be traded. There's also Zero and Calm who are a close 2nd on their teams, but the #1 on each is a protoss. It seems unwise for those teams to unbalance their lineup by trading either of them. Thus, I feel Player G is a Terran. -CJ has a strong Snow and a slumping Movie. They also have a reasonably strong Skyhigh, plus Effort. They don't really have a clear weakest race, although T would be the closest. Trading Effort nets them no gain. They could be D, if anything. -Hite and eSTRO have practically no budget, so I can't see either of them being in the running here. I could see these two teams coughing up their ace, but there would still be no other good players, so this wouldn't really improve either team. -Hwaseung Oz got back Backho, but otherwise they have no good P. Protoss is their weakest race, but there's no way in hell Jaedong gets traded. If Hiya is considered an ace (I disagree), then the trade just changes the team balance from ZTZ to ZPZ. They'd be better, but still unbalanced. They'd be a very strong candidate for E. Picking up both players would make Oz a top powerhouse, but I don't feel like Oz has a big enough budget for them. D doesn't really fit since T isn't their weakest. -KT has an emerging Tempest, an unreliable Violet, and a strong Stats for protoss. Their weakest race is Zerg, currently. They need a Zerg, if anything. They already have a pretty full roster, so I don't think KT is in this. -MBCGame is a team who I'd consider highly likely to trade their ace. Light and Sea overlap each other immensely and neither has really seemed to excel since Light's dominance back in WL. It seems that if MBC were to drop a Terran and pick up a P, they'd be much better off. If Player G is a Terran, as suggested, then it's unlikely that they're D. They could be an E, but I peg them very high as an F. -SKT has no need for Protoss. -STX has Kal as an ace, so it's highly unlikely that they're F. Shuttle was doing pretty well a few months back, but his performance dropped a bit more recently. STX is missing a Terran more than anything, so they seem a strong candidate for a D and possibly (but I feel less likely) to be E. Getting Stork and a T would made STX extremely balanced and very strong. You'd have Stork, Kal and Calm, plus a solid T, whereas currently you have a slumping kal and calm and no Terran. This would really fit STX well. -WeMade has about 500 Terran. If G is Terran, then they aren't D. P is their weakest race, so I could see them being an E. Unless they think Baby is never going to break his slump, it seems weird for them to be an F. -Woongjin has no good Terran and just Free as a reliable P, so they're a good candidate for D. Trading P ace for P ace or making your team 2 P ace with no good T and only 1 somewhat-good Z just seems foolish, so F is unlikely. Maybe E, but just for one. The only unclear thing is if E wants both players or just one of two, as long as they get one. So, since I spent 30 minutes on this: D: STX E: Hwaseung F: MBCGame G: Sea/Light | ||

He did much better last year than the one before that; the article says the players in question did similarly well. | ||

Yeah i'm pretty much convinced its Stork and Jangbi. I was kinda just expressing how I'm also a fan of great and that if he also were to leave i wouldnt have anyone to root for on Khan. | ||

Best at least has been performing very well, and if the maps aren't unfriendly to protoss next season they might bump another one of their zergs if they really did recruit the pair. But with Canata's fall from grace SKT could use a Terran too, and not just a strong Zerg. | ||

But yeah given that the draft was so tiny (and no changes from FA), if teams want to get different results for this coming season they have to trade.

But with Canata's fall from grace SKT could use a Terran too, and not just a strong Zerg. Fantasy is still holding the SKT terran line quite solidly, while Bisu has seemingly retreated into nowhere and Best is performing well. Hyuk,s2,and the last zerg( i forgot x.x) could suddenly perform well and then fail much, so i dunno. But i guess basically SKT is pretty fine with Fantasy being a solid ace,just that he needs to brush up on his bio TvZ -.- | ||
