I am not convinced Gundam's thinking is that simple ... maybe that is his ultimate conclusion, but he must have some reasons or factors in mind. We can't know for now unless Rekrul tells us! We know Boxer left a team in the past due to a lack of practice partners. Now, on the other side of the coin: SickofLife: Do you think that Yellow's slump, or any other slump in recent memory, had anything to do with teams? I believe there is a particular former underachieving team that was full of stars at one point, but I just can't remember it.

Sad to see Gundam move on, i always thought he had a tight relationship with Hexatron managers. I hope he can make a strong comeback and perform well in the leagues

Hahaha. That's one of the reasons Boxer has made millions of people hate him for years. It seemed like that the whole team was for just emperor Boxer

Boxer deserves to have a whole team just for him. :-)

Leg@festerscomp - A lot of the "leaving teams for no practice partners" and other such lame excuses are all just fake reasons for people to leave teams the easy way and to make it seem like its for a smaller reason thats whats really going on under the surface.

Dont beleive everything you here!~

I don't know about Yellow's slump, but Boxer's, it would almost seem, has something to do with teammates.

SK T1
Z: ZergLee, Mumyung
T: Boxer, ILoveoov, Kos
P: Kingdom, IntoTheRainbow, Terato

Those would be Boxer's current teammates. His TvZ is still good, but not what it used to be. That could be due to a change in game dynamics (I can't think of the other word, but change in styles of the game), but I don't know. His TvT should be really good, and it would seem it is. He beat Sync, and Nada recently in TvT. His TvP, however, seems to be lacking, and that could be due to practice partners. Kingdom and Terato are good toss players, but they aren't the top players. (I think that'd probably still go to Reach and rA as far as top tosses go) Back to TvZ. I don't know much about ZergLee, but I do know that Mumyung is terrible. Of course, Mumyungs game can improve off of Boxer and OOv, but I don't know how much theirs can off of his.

I think part of the problem would be practice partners, but for the oldschoolers, like Boxer and Yellow (who is owning it up right now), it'd probably be more the change of the game.

That's just wrong discounting Kingdom.

Kingdom, Reach, and Ra are at a level of their own. No other toss comes near their level.

While Ra/Reach are above Kingdom, the skill gap is pretty small... Kingdom is very easily the third best Protoss at the moment, all three being way above everyone else.

TvP was always Boxer's worst mu anyways.

I think kingdom is better than ra. Reach and kingdom are on the same level.

O its good to hear that he will continue progaming and he is in good relations with the team. But why is he leaving the team? I really like him and it would be great to have him on Hexatron. Why would he want to be not on a team? He won't get paid, won't have the opportunity to participate in team leagues, might have difficulty finding practice partners..Why WHy WHy WHY~~

Don't think he will have a rough time finding practice partners

Ahk-Gosu for sure
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer
