The story of KT was going to be the organization that tried so hard. And got so far. But in the end it didn't even matter
linkin park?

apdo seems to be getting blown up in china in terms of hype. not seeing him as that good of a pro prospect given the age.

We have fed the heart on fantasies, the heart's grown brutal from the fare, more substance in our enmities than in our love

So I know almost nothing about LoL, but what exactly makes this the end of an era? Massive team changes and Korean players moving to different regions? Is it similar to SC2 where Koreans move to EU/NA for easier/more money? The final paragraph is not very clear.

Riot has a rule where each organisation can only have 1 team in their league. Korea was the exception, OGN allowed 2 but thats no longer the case. So basically half the Korean scene is about to disappear/change drastically. At least thats my understanding of it, I could be wrong, pretty sleep deprived right now.
Only the weak link is strong enough to break the chain.

A lot of old legends have become irrelevant and old power teams turned into strugglers. This happened in BW too, but imagine the timing of that first/second generation of BW pros syncing up with a SC2 transition and that's basically what's happening for Korean league. The new patch for LoL is also like a totally different game, plus the new structure is closer to WCS than OSL/MSL and the transition period has been very abrupt.
