Nice pickup for Fnatic, could be the start of something very big.


Considering he's in oGs. He's pretty much apart of TL. :/


not really, but ok

Everyone used to trash this guy and say how much of a shitty player he was. Now he is on a foreign team and everyone is heralding it as a "great pickup". Rofl, that's almost as funny as Rain's style of play.


He's easily better than 99% of foreigners so yea its a great pickup. He only really struggles against high S class players but could hang with most code S players...how many foreigners can say that? Obviously it wouldn't be such a great pickup for a team like ogs or IM but for any foreign team he's instantly their top player pretty much

Why void their partnership?

Are they not competing in the GSTL together? o-O

No Reign.Rain sadly. Have to go with the Fnatic.Rain now.

Ohh well... Glad he is with a team finally once again!

Great pick for FnaticMSI. I hope he does well on his new team!
On a side note, I never knew he could speak English so fluently.

Surprised no one asked this about Rain: is he planing to attend College in the USA? It'd explain a whole lot about leaving TSL & moving Stateside. It's also put him in roughly the same category as SeleCT & Moonan. And explain why he was so busy during a few of the GSL prep periods.

I didn't see this coming but more Koreans joining foreign teams? Badass. Hopefully he will be at more foreign lans too. Poor TSL though, losing 3 of their most important members.

Fnatic.Rain really does sound fitting for this guy. He's a very strong player with great fundamentals and experience (alot) with Korean training. Moving the the US should be a piece of cake for him, and judging based off his NASL open tournament results, he should be an immediate-impact player.

Wow I had no idea Rain was only 17, he's so young, and moving all the way to US O.O.

Great pickup by Fnatic! I really look forward to seeing him in all the non-korean events, especially playing in the NASL with no latency.
