As I understand it, the ACE team was made simply because Boxer has a large fanbase and the Air Force saw through that as good publicity. Without Boxer (who's going to end his edit-mandatory service this year), the ACE team wouldn't have existed as there were progamers who went to the service before him, yet the idea wasn't heard of until Boxer came along. Either the team disbanding simply because Boxer is leaving is ridiculous, or their image as the team who loses even more than Estro doesn't look so good.

So as basically none of the ppl of my time were still active, I started chatting with some very young players there. A part of the clan, forms a semi pro team today. I was talking with this 15 years old kid, and asking him about his team, how things were running etc. It basically went like this :

- And so, what kind of money are you getting ?
- 500 000 (won).
- That's not too bad..
- No no. I pay manager 500 000.
- The fuck ? he should be paying you.
- T_T nono.
- Huk. You still live at your parent's house ?
- No, no. Team pc bang and house. I'm so tired, I have to play 40 games every day.
- Is your manager a nice guy ?
- No. He very scary man T_T. I'm scared.

That's somewhat fun and sad at the same time. But it's very much like this for many many gamers not famous yet.

God that's so shitty. Stuff like that makes me feel bad about watching pro starcraft. I feel like in some way I'm supporting child labor...
