My bet is on FXO.Rain or fnaticMSI.Rain, dignitas or Liquid is bit less likely

SlayerS has like 4 good terrans. It's not about the race, it's about how he would effect their playstyles. I think he could bring a lot of good things to a foreign team, this guys been in the GSL for ages.

Sorry , I must've missed something...

How does Rain have a bad reputation? I haven't been involved heavily in the Starcraft 2 scene.


He cheesed/all in his way to GSL 3 final. Still, he managed to be in Code S lately after he felt in Code A for one season. He's not that good, but you've to take into account that we only saw him against very good players. If a foreign team takes him, he will be one of their best (or the best) players undoubtfully.


He's not that good, but he's in code S and made it to the finals of a GSL... I hope you take the time and join everyone else in observing how ridiculous you sound.

Boxer made a lucrative career out of regularly cheesing in bw and there's nothing wrong with it. That's how you punish people for being too greedy or not taking proper precaution.

not sure if that's true though, the other way I know how to say go away is "jow hoi"*

I think that this is the beginning of a trend with Rain and Twilight.
The "you WILL NOT make money in Korea" trend.
Throw on your favorite jacket and you're good to roll. Stroll through the trees and let your miseries go.

Must be indeed.

Of course in reality, instead of fantasy-land, Rain made more tournament money than any foreign player outside of Korea, on top of receiving a salary from TSL's sponsors.

And why would you think tournament winnings & team sponsorship is the main income source? Also I think he feels that he won't have the success he had when he made the significant portion out of those 30k.

How else do players make money without tournament winnings and team sponsorship :S Especially considering very few Koreans stream.

Because that is exactly where the vast majority of income comes from for progamers.

I have very mixed feelings about rain.
I hate him for beating Nestea in the most obnoxious way in season 3...
But I also feel bad for the guy because it seems he genuinely tries hard but haven't found much success after that final. Rain is no bitbybit, but his gameplay isn't much exciting either...

He should join EG just so Grack could have someone to practice defending the newest korean cheese with...
:D

So anyone have any news on this? GomTV posted that TSL.Rain forfeited his place in Code S so it looks like he might be leaving Korea.

Yeah I think we can confidently say he won't be joining FXO. Seeing as they are going to be competing in GSL. I really wonder which team picked him up now?

I guess I would speculate EG grabbing him. I bet they will do announcement him joining their team along with an announcement for their official team house.

I'm a fan of Rain (he's a good mannered player >.>). Sad to see he's leaving GSL. This will be interesting though but I'm not sure if he'll be as successful (money wise) in the foreign scene as in Korea (GSL winnings[even if just Round of 32 in Code S + TSL salary = decent amount of money).

Europe: Price - 40% taxes
Korea : Price - 4% taxes

I don't think this is good idea.
You know what I'm talking about
