 They can be in both, in fact many Korean teams (online) are tied with proteams, example of one is Name clan. They have a team house where amateurs can pay to train all day there and get scouted by proteams. | ||

it's just the guild names they chose, but now that they're progamers they might not be on the same team; if they still have the tag it's just because they choose to keep it | ||

Boxer was a tester (as in, the guy who plays new members to test them out) in a guild called Forever and his ID was ForeveR@BoxeR. After the guild broke up, he kept the BoxeR part of his ID, but wanted a fierce sounding word to add with it. He looked up 'slayer' in an English dictionary and that's how he got SlayerS_`BoxeR`. It has nothing to do with Slayer (who was Norwegian and not Swedish) or that anime/manga series called Slayers (I've seen tons of people say Boxer got his name from that series. He didn't.) If anyone tries to argue with me about this, I swear I will fucking murder you. | ||

One thing I remember very well about Lim yoHwan is an interview that was done w/ him, I believe, around the time when he made his Orion team, he said himself, when asked about his SlayerS tag, was that he watched the anime back in the day and there was a character named Boxer on the show..

Bring it on humpty-dumpty  But ya - There was a thread created long ago, along w/ a similar talking about clan channels on east/west/euro for all the team/clans (obviously back before ICC was around and everyone went there) But 1 of the threads explained all the meanings of the tags. Like old school clan [AKUTA] which was All knowledge, Use to attack. and n.Die_ I'm guessing being never.die_Jaedong etc. but ya - some of them are kinda nice. I always like Nal_ [Shield] is nice. [AeGis] [Oops] [3.33] [30D.O.M.] [Auto] SiZ) by. etc!! I remember [gm] was really stacked a little bit before Stork became an actual progamer - I remember testie stating here on the forums "watch out for a kid named Stork, kids going to be a monster one day" I remember 3 protoss's came out of that clan and I thought they were all pretty much the same, since they were all from same clan (figured they all practiced a lot and shared similar play-styles, which of course prolly has changed to date) much[gm] free[gm] anytime[gm] oh, and tester[gm] too, which was really hot for a time - then he totally fell off =[ 1 Protoss player that I think either retired or just vanished that was really gosu was Ever)P(Zealot I remember watching a lot of that guys replays back in the day - when replays 1st came out, before u had to worry about them being bugged - and before apm trackers etc. Then patches came out and all the v Z replays went to shit ;O gL | ||
