Btw, Perfectman has been added to KT's Feb roster. So he's now able to play televised matches.

I'm always glad when BW guys get jobs, but to be honest I've never thought to myself "boy I sure wish KT had someone like perfectman." It would be nice if KT at some point played him at the end of R3 because they secured the top playoff spot, but unless Pman stole some of Bisu's skills I hope KT is never in a situation where they need him.

Perfectman must have been posting up some good results at the practice room or not why would kt field in a not competent player ? . Time to dt rush Turn this time .. do it for stats perfect man !.

Dunno, probably not. But I don't think he was paid at STX either.

didn't a Neo.G protoss also join T8 recently?

Yes, Pigbaby. But he's still a semi-pro so he can't play any televised games. Very likely, he's an online practice partner.


No, this is not true. His nick is not "Pigbaby". Thats just awful (Even though i suspect its considered "cute" in korean just wow...).

On topic: Glad to see that team 8 is recruiting, its somewhat telling that they are not shutting down within the next 2 weeks at least
Bisu[about JD]=I was scared (laughs). The force emanating from his facial expression was so manly that I was even a little jealous.

i dont think team8 biggest problem is zerg's practice mode. they should really aim for better terran backup or else i can't see them doin anything.
and btw. aren't there enough ex estro/mbc/hwaseung pros just waiting to get invited for play?
I apologize for all my english mistakes. I used to write really good senteces in this lenguage, but nowadays, i smoke too much weed and drink too much vodka. So you must forgive me :)

Well adding him to the roster just makes him one more option - either if he has particular strengths, or they want to throw a game without having to waste a really good player.

Good news! I remember Check from somewhere, but I don't know why... maybe dreamleague? More players on T8 is always good, if nothing else, atleast for practice.

neo.g_pigbaby is the latest nick he (양희수) used in Jan when he played in the Rookie League. Maybe he'll change it later on.

Fox, not estro. In any case, Team 8 has no money so they can only afford to recruit rookies. They might recruit a Terran rookie some time later who knows.

He never gives up, Check. Actually Check almost didn't become a progamer at all. He tried several times to win Courage but couldn't. His very last chance to win Courage was in Feb 2011 and he finally did it. Had he not won in Feb, MBC would not have been able to draft him in April and he would never have become a progamer because the team was more or less disbanded by August.

Cool, he seemed to have some talent the times I've watched him play. Another zerg on the team can't hurt.

Yay, great news! Always good to see players getting picked up. I was hoping he'd do well at STX, but they've started playing so many new rookies, I guess there would have been a lot of competition anyway. Good luck to him now, and hope we see him in the lineup soon

I'm not quite sure what is going on at STX. They basically got rid of everyone they recruited in 2011. Maybe that was part of their strategy, to overhaul the B-team.


As far as I know STX has always had a very small/weak B-Team. They seemed to put more emphasis on their A-Team.


But yeah this is a heartwarming story. <3
