If that rumor about JD going abroad for studies is right then I'm even more sad that we might never see JD again in e-sports
I can imagine how sad the JD fans will be (it'll feel the same if Flash was in his shoes )

The rumor arose because during the 2009 FA, his parents mentioned that but IMO it was largely as leverage to get Oz to negotiate.


any news of any sponsors,any good news so far?

even rumors

Yes, there are some rumours. Jinair possibly? But its just a rumour so far. Lots of speculation, just have to wait I guess.

Yeah, it would be a pretty huge blow to BW to lose 3 teams at once without at least one new team .

Speculation from the article: It's not possible for all 40 progamers from these 3 teams to be drafted into the remaining 6 teams (excluding ACE). However, if a new team is formed, most players will be able to retain their jobs and we can have 8 teams in the PL this coming season. There are only 8 teams in Korea's professional baseball league so this is not unusual and might actually help in making the league more efficient (some of these teams have been ill-managed).


But wait for a confirmation from either DES or Fomos first.


Edit:
lol Fomos picks up the story from the joinsMSN article and states that if new sponsors cannot be found for all the 3 teams, forming a new team to include some of the players from these 3 teams is very possible.

Sad that OZ is disbanding too. I thought the 3rd one will be STX for sure.

Now we only need one team to be formed from the 3 that are disbanding and the rest of the players to be drafted by the remaining teams and its not that bad. And KIller for KHAN pls !

STX has always seemed quite willing to pump money into their esports teams, judging from the high salaries Calm and Kal are under (and paying tossgirl to promote their brand). The SF team just won the PL too so it was very unlikely to have been STX.

Killer to Khan would be a very good outcome.

Just imagine Jaedong, Killer, Sea, Jaehoon/Tyson, Baby, Mind/Wooki for the first 6 games, then they could choose their ace player depending on the opposing team(ex. JD against Stork, Shine against Bisu, Killer against Zero, etc.) instead of predictably sending only one ace player for all of their matches :p.

Best to have at least 1 new team and then 1 draft (like the Estro draft) for the remaining players.

Well if there is at least 1 new team, there is a chance to make PL more even in terms of team strength.

With these 3 teams disbanding there is a huge free talent pool to form a really really strong
line-up, a team based around Jaedong, Baby, Sea, Killer, Jaehoon seems quite deadly.

Maybe Samsung can get a good draft as well, combing with their aspiring rookies they could become an even stronger team as well, leading up to a closer overall balance between the teams, making Proleague more exciting (for me, at least)

PS - Thanks Ryo for keeping up with this stuff, if we ever meet IRL I'll buy you lunch or something lol.. Sorry about MBC, I was starting to become a fan too, dat Jaehoon...

Don't want to appear vulturish... Jaedong + others to STX or Khan and new team would really make every single proleague match an epic clash of titans. ACE is beefing up too.

Agreed, supply and demand: demand graph stays same, supply graph moves to the right as amount of players on the market increases. Result is lower price. So its time to tighten our seat belts and hold on tight, because its gonna be a helluva ride

I hope that if they can't get the 3 new sponsors, that the merger actually happens. Imagine Baby practicing with JD

Quite possible that there will be a new team.

from where is there such an info?

BTW - I think that if things go well (PL starts a new season), it's quite probable that Samsung acquires (Z)Shine. Lack of good zerg + obviously Shine being a very good candidate for a practice partner to Stork, having beaten him such a lot of times.

Gogo KHAN.Shine!

Speculation from a joinsMSN article.

Speculation from the article: It's not possible for all 40 progamers from these 3 teams to be drafted into the remaining 6 teams (excluding ACE). However, if a new team is formed, most players will be able to retain their jobs and we can have 8 teams in the PL this coming season. There are only 8 teams in Korea's professional baseball league so this is not unusual and might actually help in making the league more efficient (some of these teams have been ill-managed).


But wait for a confirmation from either DES or Fomos first.


Edit:
lol Fomos picks up the story from the joinsMSN article and states that if new sponsors cannot be found for all the 3 teams, forming a new team to include some of the players from these 3 teams is very possible.

like I said

Killer,Jaedong,Baby,SEAAAAAAA,midas,wooki,Jaehoon,anytime,Hiya,sHy,Han,Shine,RoRo...my god

Poor rookies though, where will they go. I'm not too worried about the senior players.

Sad that OZ is disbanding too. I thought the 3rd one will be STX for sure.

Now we only need one team to be formed from the 3 that are disbanding and the rest of the players to be drafted by the remaining teams and its not that bad. And KIller for KHAN pls !

STX has always seemed quite willing to pump money into their esports teams, judging from the high salaries Calm and Kal are under (and paying tossgirl to promote their brand). The SF team just won the PL too so it was very unlikely to have been STX.

Killer to Khan would be a very good outcome.


yeah the rookies will barely get playtime at all,they will probably quit progaming or move to SC2 or something...I hope they get to continue trying to live their progaming reams.
Uhh things wont change for rookies, now matter how much of them a team has. Remember, upkeep of a player is cheap. Food, very low rent with the tight bunk bed quarters they live in, other low costs. The only real thing about having player is the salary, and rookies dont get any salary anyway. So its basically almost no problem to have teams draft more rookies
