YELLOW FIGHTING!

KT just got manlier. Perhaps the decrease in term of responsibilities would allow Violet to refocus and regain his peak? Judging from what Jaedong said, being a Captain isn't mere formality.

Cloud is a coach now...congrats. I thought he was going to retire. If he makes Hite Terran strong...he will be a miracle worker.

Does anybody know how long Canata has been playing for SKT A-team? It's like since the dawn of starcraft.....

Venture Capital is better off spent on lottery tickets rather than investing in E-Sports; you'll get a far better return. The difference is simple: Koreans are tryharding at the game, foreigners are tryharding in real-life.

Maybe he can influence Fantasy with his own stupid cheeses. At least Fantasy is better at executing them. Also, I like having long BC fights, maybe Oov+Canata can make it happen.

Kong is back, motherfuckers!

On a more serious note, this is only the proleague (A-team) roster right? Canata might just got sent to the B-team. I don't think he is retiring.

Sad to see Canata go out this way. In hindsight I guess the writing was on the wall, but still, you always prefer to see gamers go out on their own terms.

When a player leaves the A-team it's never a good sign. Especially old ones. Most of them go to ACE or retire.

Probably just back to the B-team like HoeJJa (and others) did recently. Maybe to the army, but I don't think he's retiring quite yet.

He's been moved out of the roster for this month, I don't know why everyone is overreacting, acting like he died or retired. Canata was playing like crap, and they'll likely stick him in the dream league where he belongs, let him get back to form. If he ends up reitiring later on (or going to the army) then so be it but as of now he's just moved off the active roster, like many slumping players before him.

Canata was 3-7 in his last 10 games, and only played 4 games in the 10-11 season anyway (lost all 4 btw), having him off the active roster isn't going to hurt SKT at the moment as they have plenty of rookies of varying success to field out this coming round.

ForGG retired.

Its still unclear why/what made him retire so suddenly.

For the "WTF HAPPENED TO CANATA" worriers out there:

From Fomos:
SK Telecom’s (T)Canata, removed from the January roster

[image loading]

SK Telecom’s senior Terran Canata has been removed from the January Proleague roster.

Ever since his debut, Canata showed a stable appearance and led the way for SK Telecom on many occasions. With Boxer switching over to Starcraft 2, iloveoov becoming a professional coach, and Midas transferring over to the WeMade FOX team, each of SK Telecom’s former poster Terran players chose a different path for themselves, but Canata decided to stay as a player for his team and as a part of SK Telecom’s Terran line.

Recently however, Canata has been competing against his juniors (T)Fantasy and (T)Ssak for a chance to participate in more matches, but in the end was pushed away and could not seize an opportunity. His recent record out of 10 games played is a record of 3 wins and 7 losses and has come to a halt with a 30% winning rate; he is even in a situation in which he has a record of 3 losses out of the 3 games he played in Proleague.

It seems that Canata has been removed from the roster because of his lack of strength in his games nowadays. Because of the fact that his strength in his games in both the Proleague and individual leagues has fallen greatly, it seems that he was removed from the roster in order for him regain back his strength again.

SK Telecom’s executive office clarified, “It is true that Canata’s strength in his games recently has dropped a lot, so in order to let him rest for a while, we have removed him from the Proleague roster.”

There have been growing concerns over whether Canata, who has been removed from the Proleague roster for the first time since his debut, will get out of his slump and be able to put his name on the roster with confidence again in February.

Source: http://www.fomos.kr/board/board.php?mode=read&keyno=113961&db=issue

In short:
-No, Canata's not going to the army.
-No, Canata's not switching over to SC2.
-No, Canata's not suddenly retiring like ForGG nor is he ragequitting his pro gaming career.

He's just been sucking lately, so they decided to give him a rest in order to not let him plague their record in the Winners' League.

Out with Canata and in with Kwanro!

Actually thats precisely what it means. Off the roster = off their A-team (for now at least). The rosters make up the A-teams (who can participate in SPL).
I'm going to sleep, let me get some of that carpet.

Ah, really now? I didn't know that, thanks for catching my mistake.

YES YELLOW IN KT ^_____^ I like this, because of him being a #1 legend of all the players left in BW, and also because he could replace FailCtion as a more normal zerg. And also maybe in a more overall consistent team he will play even better. ^_^

Go Yellow!

Good to finally hear about Canata. Hopefully he'll take a vacation where Bisu did before he won his first MSL.

I'm actually wondering if KT will actually field YellOw now that he's back on KT's A-Team. He performed rather decently in this time with ACE, but so did Reach and he's practically contributed almost nothing to the team since his return (though the switch from a regular team member to captain MIGHT give him a bigger role behind-the-scenes, especially for the KT Protosses).

Then again, Action alone can't really uphold KT's Zerg roster alone, especially when HoeJJa is performing REALLY badly as of late, so here's to hoping that KT actually fields YellOw with some degree of success throughout the Proleagues.

After all, if Midas and NaDa can perform REALLY well, then every old-school player has a chance at success (outside of BoxeR of course =/).

Canata.Why'd you have to go and leave? I know that you were having a rough time, but I believed in you. D=
Also, Mantoss captain with the addition of Yellow to the team is gonna boost KT's morale a lot (and maybe Violet will perform better now that he isn't Captain anymore).
Hrm...I don't know who this "Wuk" guy is, but I've got my eye on him. In about 1-2 years, I think he might make a name for himself.

edit: Ahh, so Canata is taking rest to regain his strength. Well then, Canata, rest well! =D

That interview gives me a sigh of relief, he wasn't doing well in Proleague, and this time off should bring confidence into February, where he will hopefully regain the title of Survivor King..
Venture Capital is better off spent on lottery tickets rather than investing in E-Sports; you'll get a far better return. The difference is simple: Koreans are tryharding at the game, foreigners are tryharding in real-life.

Does anyone think the "Roster" system isn't good ? I means it prevent the "sudden" appearance of a player since everyone knows the list of players of every team. For example, it prevent iloveoov to suddenly appear on a game vs Flash ( as a cannon fodder for example).
