I think the forums are trying to tell me that I should cheer for Prime LoL

LoL is not officially covered by TL so it has to be listed under SC2 in Community News even though it only appears in the LoL forum

edit: and this may or may not be part of Fionn's master plan

What if MVP Ozone says no?

What if the MVP coaches believe so much in their future, their teams, and their fan loyalty that they will stare Samsung's check books in the face, say that they're too prideful to sell, and turn down the $500,000?


I believe!

MVP will never sell out!

for anything less than $700,000! xD

Wow ! MVP merging with lol would be sick.
Ive always kinda wondered why TL just didnt get a LoL team seems to bring in cash
To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

Actually, this is relevant to SC2, unlike the Dota2 guide, and this is also not a featured article, but actual news regarding MVP potentially going KeSPA! Go KeSPA! MVP for Proleague!

Good news all around.

who said kespa teams are struggling?

Its not like these giant corporates are poor so that they cant pay their players. Its just a question of whethere they are willing to make an investment or not.


and obviously the investment is to go towards league, not sc2.
reality check guys.


who said its going towards sc2?

Well It's only tangibly related to sc2, if the MVP sc2 team comes with the deal they aren't going to keep the 20 MVP players and make a Samsung 2 SC2 team. They would probably take the top 5 or 6 players in Team MVP, add them to Samsung while cutting their weaker SC2 players and letting the rest go.

That would actually be terrible news for sc2, It's one less team and a ton of players suddenly jobless.

Well, terrible news possibly, but still news...
As you said, this might have big implications on SC2, aswell.

The castaways would just make their own team called Least Valuable Player and face SouL in the GSTL finals. 40,000 fans will show up to said final and SC2 will become the #1 e-sport in Korea.

Eh, a bit pessimistic, but anyway I feel they would be way better off cutting KHAN and replacing it entirely with MVP players in that case.

Yeah what I noticed, nowhere Samsung KHAN seems to be specifically mentioned, am I right? It's only Samsung Electronics. Or maybe I missed something.

Unless Roro and Stork also retire I don't see them cutting KHAN's SC2 team completely, too much loyalty there.

But teams are like family. Loyalty, knowing the players, and having built them yourself from your training system. There is also the fact that the players are under contract, etc.

They would probably keep Keen, Super, DRG, and Dream, cut the rest (dukedeok won't help much with Proleague/Korean standing in Europe) and proceed as normal.

Samsung doubles the amount offered and the owners of MVP laugh their way to the bank?
