No significant A-class players yet.

MVP is the most notable A-teamer.

Yeah, Boxer is probably waiting for iloveoov so they can make a SKT1 2.0.


That's all? Are you referring to recent A-teamers who just quit sc1?

Doesn't surprise me at all that boxer can get this kind of deal. He has everything going for him; SC1 legend status, huge fan base, actress gf/wife, great showing at his 1st SC2 tournament...etc. I really hope he makes a kick ass team to make the scene even more competitive and draw other sponsors. It can only mean good things for esports.

He was thinking of Murat "Arbalet" Zhumashevich, and considering the amount of money he has dropped on e-sports I cannot believe you don't know who he is. Would be a typical ballsy move, and an interesting return to sponsoring RTS gaming for him, but the thread seems pretty much to confirm the company in question is Intel - and that makes sense considering they sponsored GSL1, but (I assume) declined/were outbid on GSL2.

Is Intel really new on the korean market? Sony Ericsson is sponsoring GSL beacuse they are pushing in on the korean market, perhaps its them?

BoxeR, who is currently doing very well in GomTV's GSL, a multinational company -- recently entered the Korean market -- only known as "I" have offered to provide a personal sponsorship of 200 million won, and full details in regards to this contract will be released soon.

He's not a "progamer" but he's S class... which is more important to him anyways.

Thanks for translating.

I was going to post that Boxer getting a personal sponsorship was bad for the development of the SC2 scene in Korea (which was really helped by proleague aka teams), but in the second paragraph it says he is getting money to start a team to (unless that is a miss translation), negating my point.

Now my only thought is Boxer is going to be the father of 3 progaming teams now.

This is just great. Awesome for Boxer and the team there will be. "Finally" you can say that SC2 is doing pretty well in Korea, if this goes as planned!

Wondering who are joining the team afterwards. Ex-progamers, like iloveoov would be pretty bad ass.

Thanks for the translation.

Doesn't boxer have enough money by now? Esports would be more helped by giving more pro gamers a stable source of money.

I doubt boxer is using all the money for himself, If he is interested in making a team with a sponsor. Part of that money will go to the team i would assume. At least what you could believe after reading and listening how passionate Boxer is for Esports.

Boxer will probably snatch TLO and cool as they seem to be highly innovative and this is worth much until legacy of rhe void comes along.


TLO did say in a interview he is pretty loyal to TL, don't think he would leave....Fruit dealer made TSL with Tester so I don't think he would leave either.

Didn't Oov express desire to move onto SC2? I wouldn't be suprised if BoxeR and iloveoov formed a SC2 team.



This would be totally awesome. Hoping for it.

Does IBM still exist as a brand in the B2C market? Here they changed name after the chinese bought it.

Update:

KeSPA officially announced they retired BoxeR from progamer status. Now he's "Amateur" status.

I love how they think they still matter and don't realize the only reaction they will get is people making fun of them.


Yea, its like who the f*ck cares. Boxer is never going back to SC BW, so do what ever you want. ban him for life, he will be playing SC2.
