From the translator I understand that TSL wants to be more team-based, so they are getting rid of their team? I'm not sure I understand.


tester/cool were known for their lack of effort in regards for practice. Was their main reason for parting with ogs iirc.

Who ever is heading the team probably wants some form of structure so they can hope to produce results.

That's just my take.

I think they're 2 separate statements. Like, Tester/Fruitdealer are leaving, but they'll continue to work hard.

This is super unfortunate, SKS was a pretty big part of TSL's deep lineup, and to a lesser extent Fruitdealer was also D:. I hope they find a good team/ good teams in the future to join, it's gonna be sad to see TSL play now with a reduced lineup. gl to both of them!

I hope this doesn't mean they wont play in GSL anymore.

I hope this means they will play a bit more abroad.

Koreans taking over the world, everyone else better start taking E-sports seriously and train like it or find themselves out of a job real soon.

Like others here I got both FD and trikster on my anti team, guess they also want some of foreign pie, bit easier to get.

Fruit and Tester were some of the only korean players getting salaried. Even if It wasn't that high it doesn't make sense to leave their job over practice conditions. Especially considering their recent results.

TSL is definitely falling apart, although FruitDealer and Tester have been achieving less and less in SC2. (That's not to say that having them leave the team is necessarily a *good* thing, but we'll see.)

Easy money bro. Chances of you winning mlg, nasl, dreamhack, or some other foreign tourny is far far higher than winning code s. The skill pool is much lower outside korea.

This is actually good news. The one thing the entire team of TSL is completely shit at is decision making. Most of them show so much promise, but always lose to inferior players. Hopefully a different team can make them good again.
