Team SlayerS @slayersclan
끝 - (END)

I feel like this has been a long time coming, but I'm really sad to seem them go. Thoughts?
UPDATE:
Legitimacy of this twitter has been questioned. Stay tuned for more details.
UPDATE2:
Twitter appears to be legit. As Fionn said:
People following OP's twitter: Alicia, Puzzle, Doa and a few others.
UPDATE3:
From SlayerS fanclub:

I'm kinda shocked by this ..
UPDATE4:
Have received info from sources regarding MMA ---> Axiom eSports, take this as speculation for now.
UPDATE5:
Totalbiscuit replied with:
[8:00:17 PM] S. Job: Hey, what are the odds I can get an official statement from you re: Slayers disbanding and the rumors that MMA is being picked up by Ax?
[8:05:09 PM] John "TotalBiscuit" Bain: nah, don't have anything to say about that. All sorts of things are possible but speculation isn't something I'll confirm or deny

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
That's what I think.
|
|
|
I saw this too and immediately read it as such. I'll wait for more information. Does that twitter account officially represent them? I was under the impression it was a fan keeping other fans up to date.
|
It would be very very sad
|
Wow, looking forward to a statement and to see where the players go.

afaik that was the case for their facebook page atleast.

Daaaaaamn  .
|
|
|
They don't even have an Official Twitter anymore
|
Jessica long, long ago said this twitter no longer represented them.
|
Sorry this is a fake twitter.
EDIT: Might be real.
|
The last tweet is on Feb 24th, maybe they made a new one?

Pretty sure that's their English Twitter/Fan Twitter.
If so, I can see MMA/Ryung joining Axiom super fast. Would love to see Coca join TSL. But we'll see what happens. There have been rumors that they were in trouble, but we'll see. Sure Jessica will make a tweet about it soon enough.
|
Also, mid-season GSTL is a strange time to disband...
Edit: That was a dumb thing for me to say. Obviously, it might not be a situation that can be controlled.

If It's true I really hope MMA goes to Startale or LG-IM, those would be the best training environments outside of Kespa teams.

I kinda saw this coming after boxer left, it's really sad

He wants to be on a foreign team. He is also bros with Crank. I would see him joining Axiom, honestly.

Relevant, from the Slayers fanclub thread.

I have had information from sources saying that MMA was joining Ax- not surprised at all to see this announcement after hearing that.

Wait whatttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt
If this is true, this is super sad news. Though it was a little incoming, still a sad case of how a great team is breaking apart like this. Hope this isn't true.

Ever since Boxer left . . . .

Oh, wow. I wouldn't be surprised if Axiom picks up some Slayers then.
Edit: I saw this coming after Boxer left so not too shocking, just sad.

Man, Boxer really left his team to die in the end.
Such a sad story if SlayerS has to end like this.
And poor Genius...
|
Man, this is sad. Hopefully all the SlayerS guys can find a new team.

are they done? is that a fake twitter?

Nooo Slayers!! If its true hope they go to Korean teams and bolster their lineups! TSL as an example could use some Protoss and a terran. Prime could really use a boost to their squad Zergs and toss anyway,

Wow... this would actually be kind of awful.

Poor Genius indeed. ._. Sad that this could be true. I just hope all of them find new teams  Especially the players who were rising up and getting some experience like Dark, Miso and others who competed/competing in the gstl/ipl/nasl. Dark really shows some promise
|
Yeah poor SlayerS. What will be interesting is to see where everyone goes... and if MMA is going to get his asking price of $4k/mo

Coca on Prime would be ideal.
Alicia and/or Puzzle (if he regains health) would be ideal on TSL.
MMA/Ryung, I think, will be heading to Axiom. That or they both somehow loophole their way to SKT.

Yea the team was never the same after BoxeR left ;\ In fact SlayerS was on the decline before he left and it was like the point of no return. He wasn't just the face of the team but he was also the most experienced player/coach. I'd love to see Ryung/MMA/CoCa at least go to Korean teams but I do have a feeling at least 1 of them will end up on a foreign team. It's not the worst, as long as they continue to at least train in Korea they won't regress.
|
Damn, I hope this isnt for real. But things seem to have been really bumpy there recently. I hope this disband isnt because of players vs. jessica or some stupid shit like that.

So we have from the roster:
Alicia
MMA
Ryung
Coca
Cella
Puzzle
Yugioh
and Dark?
as the desirable roster pick up for other teams. Any news on where they all going?

The SKT part made me salivate.

Everyone on SlayerS must have known the end was coming, even before Boxer decided to leave...

That would be quite sick  though I would like someone like Ryung to go to TSL because just Polt (and center e.t.c but you know...) doesnt always cut it and they would need some depth in that department.

It would be funny if StartaleQ decide to just adopt all of the slayers players as they did for Zenex though.

IMO
Coca and Puzzle retire, Alicia goes to a foreign team since he's in Code B but has placed second in three premier foreign tournaments in the past 4 months. MMA > whoever pays the most money. Ryung > wherever MMA goes for obviously less money. Cella coach for a kespa team or another ESF team. Yugioh another ESF team, Dark another ESF team.

This really sucks, wish them all the best of luck.

Also let's not forget Arthur who has shown promising play lately.

It should not be forgotten, but he has been very inconsistent the past 6 months with a general tendency towards decline in skill. Therefore any foreign team should be careful if negotiationg contract with him, since they might not be getting what they're paying for.
About this thread, dno if that twitter is the real one. Kindda suspicious that it was inactive for that long before coming back posting 2 cryptic messages (words). As mentioned by others it may be the old twitter account that was used some time ago, which would also explain why Slayers players among others are following it. Overall this is too short and cryptic to be useful. Let's just wait for Slayers to decide to disband truly or pull their act together and power on with their second string players getting stronger + Puzzle and Coca hopefully returning in full force soon.

If I had to guess teams, alicia/puzzle/arthur (Most likely just puzzle) to TSL, dark to prime, yugioh and ryung to foreign teams, MMA to axiom, cella to coach another team (Possibly prime if I had to take a guess), genius to complexity and everyone else left to the wolves (Hoseo could take this as an opportunity to grab a load of new blood.)
|
United States23455 Posts
Oh yeah, I forgot about Genius.
He'll probably ask Liquid if he can join again since they just signed another Korean.
|
It will be interesting to see where there players end up. Sad to see Slayers disband.
|
Sad but inevitable. They will forever be remembered for their Terran players and hellions.

WOW!!!
Can't believe this is happening....
good luck to the players and hope they get pick up by kespa or foreign teams.
|
In Crank's chat.
Someone: SlayerS disband?
Genna: Not yet but they will.
|
sad to see boxer team going away, but boxer left so its bound to happen. One thing that is possitive in this bad situation is, maybe now jessica will be gone from the sc2 scene forever? Who knows would be good, since less drama.
|
I'm still really confused by boxer leaving his own team and then the team disbanding after all their successes... just doesnt make sense to me.. but then again I prolly missed some important info..

If CoCa retires I'll die a bit inside. He was such a promising up and comer and I feel like he was unlucky to never make it big in GSL. And I guess Genius will get his shot at foreigners now. I can see him going to Axiom or maybe CoL

liquid mma
make it happen

They will be sorely missed. One of the coolest Korean teams there was.
This team single handedly broke the game for one season of GSL with the blue-flame builds.

I only say Coca and Puzzle retire due to Puzzle dropping out of GSL and NASL, while Coca didn't show up to the Code A Qualifiers. Neither of them have played in any team leagues in quite a while too.
It's possible that they are just really sick and cannot play at all, who knows.

Puzzle is seriously ill according to NASL and iirc coca was also ill last code A.

Even if the twitter itself was fake, there is still a lot of circumstantial evidence to suggest that they're going to disband in the near future.

Hmm, people are calling this troll, prank, joke, whatever. I'm more inclined to believe that since this twitter has been pretty faithful in tweeting pro-SlayerS fan stuff (like events and such), that this was just the twitter-owner venting or being generally pessimistic.
