![[image loading]](http://www.nevergg.net/photos/513512939_AqkfP-L.jpg) Summary: - RuBy is demoted to the B-Team by MBC in March - RuBy applies for the Air Force ACE team and is accepted - RuBy will be leaving for military duties on 4/24 - He will most likely appear on the roster some time in the end of May. - Other known candidates which have applied but are unknown if they succeeded in making it to ACE are  Tester, Chalrenge, TT and  DarkElf.This is all I could gather from my limited Korean knowledge + help from ilovezil.

Which is why you see players like Nada trying to juice in as much money as he can before he goes and those like Anytime who just want to get it out of the way before SC2 comes around. | ||

Which is why you see players like Nada trying to juice in as much money as he can before he goes and those like Anytime who just want to get it out of the way before SC2 comes around. To be fair, Nada has played consistently well for years, and is far better now and historically than Anytime. | ||

 I've known him in passing since last year and he's a lovely guy - very fun to photograph. I'll never forget that silly shoot where I taught him the word 'window' (which is where that photo in the OP is from!) | ||

Uhh..apparently the players on Ace are playing better than they've played in years. Reach is finally playing and winning again. YellOw, according to Anytime, is working hard and he had a good showing in MSL Offlines (he only lost to Skyhigh in the finals of his group). Anytime is playing again and even with limited play time he's winning some and Anytime has always been a beast. Sure it's Lecaf, Khan, SKT1, or KTF but they still bring their matches to the Ace game a lot of times which is a lot more than people expect and what other teams do. | ||

![[image loading]](http://www.fomos.kr/board/issue/1239809758_1.jpg) MBC게임 민찬기, 3월 공군 e스포츠병 모집 지원 MBC Game’s Min Chan Ki, accepted into the eSports Airforce team for March [포모스=심현 기자]공군, 4월 24일 최종 합격자 발표 [Fomos = Reporter Shim Hyun]Air force, April 24th presenting the final candidate MBC게임 민찬기가 3월 공군 e스포츠병 모집에 지원한 것으로 확인됐다. It has been confirmed that MBC Game’s Min Chan Ki will be given an invitation to the Air force eSports team for March. 공군은 지난 3월 2일부터 13일까지 3월 e스포츠병 모집을 진행했고, 민찬기도 모집에 지원해 면접까지 진행하고 최종 합격자 발표를 기다리고 있는 것으로 알려졌다. Starting from March 2nd to March 13th, the Air Force eSports team sent out March invitations in which Min Chan Ki received an invitation in addition to an interview, and now we are waiting for public confirmation of his eligibility. 민찬기는 당초 3월 e스포츠병 모집에 지원했다가 접수를 취소한 것으로 알려졌으나, 이를 취소하지 않고 1차 합격자 발표 이후 신체검사와 면접, 실기 시험까지 치르고 최종 합격자 발표를 기다리고 있는 상황이다. At first, Min Chan Ki seemed to have cancelled his eSports invitation, but after the first announcement, it seems that he must undergo physical examination and physical training, so we’re waiting for the final announcement. 이에 따라 3월 e스포츠병 모집에 지원한 선수는 민찬기를 비롯해 이스트로 서기수, 온게임넷 이승훈, 삼성전자 박성훈, CJ 김성기 등 5명과 트레이너로 전향 준비중인 B팀의 C선수 등 총 6명이다. Following this, besides Min Chan Ki, the March invitation consists of eStro’s Seo Ki Soo, Ongamenet’s Lee Seung Hoon, Samsung’s Park Sung Hoon, CJ’s Kim Sung Ki, in addition to these 5, player C from team B will transition into a trainer, making 6 total. 한편, 3월 e스포츠병 모집의 선발 정원은 총 3명으로 오는 4월 24일 최종 합격자 발표를 통해 합격자가 결정되면 5월 25일 진주 공군 교육사령부로 입대하게 된다. Meanwhile, the March eSports selected personnel will consist of about three who, referring to the April 24th announcement, will be stationed at the Air Force’s training headquarters if the official announcement is confirmed. EDIT 1 already: was trying to figure out what 심현 meant, but it was apparently the name of the reporter... EDIT 2: Thanks HonestTea! | ||

And hopefully Chalrenge doesn't go to ACE. It would be nice to see him play, but knowing it would come at the cost of his boisterous personality just isn't worth it. Seeing him sit there like a statue during a PL match would just be strange.

What does this part mean exactly? Are they trying to recruit B-team players for practice partners or coaches or something? | ||

What does this part mean exactly? Are they trying to recruit B-team players for practice partners or coaches or something? That part actually confused me quite a bit. From what I racked up, it's something like a B team's "C" member becoming a trainer, a C team member becoming B team through a trainer, or a trainer becoming a B team's "C" member. I was hoping a more knowledge korean user would help me out there | ||

There's just using "B" and "C" as place holders to avoid revealing the actual name. So you should read it as: Player C, from Team B who is trying to transition into a trainer. or... Player John Doe, from Team Unnamed, who is trying to transition... | ||

"Player C" from "Team B" is a PLAYER who is trying to transition into a coach/trainer. But he applied for ACE like the rest of the players mentioned in the article. | ||

RuBy was like going to be the next big thing or the next Sea. Then something happened =[. He was so good in the GOM MSL's and after that for a while then suddenly started losing and completely disappeared. | ||
