With Jangbi, Stork, Turn, Reality, etc. on the team, these guys would have never seen the light of day.

Hopefully they do well in whatever they decide to do next.


The timing would be quite a coincidence if SC2 had nothing to do with it.

7-8 players have left Khan in the last 3 months alone.


Do you have a source on this?

January is one of the coaches I've heard the most good things about from ex-SC progamers, honestly don't think I've ever heard anything bad at all about her.

Yeah i don't think anyone is actually blaming her.
It's just that when you're in a must win situation and you send out brave instead of an osl winner ... yeah that's kind of what we call trolling.

Yeah some props to her. She seems to have a lot of faith in Reality.

Hiya on his stream said he wanted to go on Samsung Khan because that's where the player are best treated, that he had refused another team with a lower salary, but that if it were Samsung...

Does anyone know when they were drafted ?

Maybe Brave had an ace up his sleeve, we just don't know. Either way, Jan knew that she had to make sure that all her players were getting the spotlight so it didn't turn into Stork/JB KHAN right?

You also kind of get the idea from Khan player interviews(especially Stork) that the team is fairly loose in terms of practice regiment. It does make sense that January's more of a players' coach than other teams given her player background.

Oh yeah, but didn't something similar happen with grape ? I mean i understand her wanting to play kind of everyone, i think she's actually one of the only coaces that gives so many opportunities to lesser players, but like ... not when you're down 2 - 0 ; 2 - 1 or tied 2 - 2, or at least not so often ^^
Not really criticizing tho, she's doing a great job !

I'm not saying it was aliens is SC2's fault, ... but it was aliens is SC2's fault ...
/troll
I also think SC2 gives another chance to random A teamers and less successful B teamers. Because evidence suggests that your BW level =!= your SC2 level, so it's like a reroll, everyone seems even again. It seems like a new chance for them. Or it would seem so to me if it were just " changing game " ( by that i mean i don't know what will happen to the viewerbase ETC ) . Then again maybe they tried SC2 for a while and felt like they didn't have the talent and didn't want to risk it all again, or just didn't have the motivation to, maybe they just didn't like the game enough. We won't know until we get an good interview, which we will probably never get since those players are not exactly famous.

Edit : the "it" was included in the strike

if the alternative is to assume it's coincidence that they are all leaving during the transitional period to SC2, yes I would say it's SC2.
