With the following comment:

Is that Trickster and Fruitdealer (3rd and 4th from the left)? I can't be sure - looks a lot like trickster though.

Also, I can't translate the comment >.< sigh.


According to NASL season 2 sign ups, there is a player called 'StarTaleTrickster' participating, from south korea.
I'm aware that this isn't concrete but it's definatley a possibility.
If anyone has anything to confirm I can edit it into the OP.

Link to NASL participants:

EDIT: I'd also like to point everyones attention to the player roster:
Look at HOW MANY oGs, Slayers, ST players are in there... OH MY GOODNESS. <3

well, making it out of that group really ended up being luck tbh. He got a freebie vs. rain that July didn't have the chance to have.

WOW! just wow.....

Really interesting that he left TSL for Startale. I wonder what offer they gave.
Or if there were any problems in TSL. Especially since both Dealer and Rain left.

want more info :p

It's possible that they want to get a stronger already established line up, they have a couple of solid players but they already have a lot of up and comming players like Virus and Tiger.
Althought they do already have July, Bomber and Ace...so...Who knows.

but July had 2 shots to qualify for RO16, while trickster only had 1 shot, which he took and succeeded. I don't understand why people think it's unfair for July. Fanboyism, it seems

thats what i mean, he maintains code s, but i wouldnt really consider it as being great under these circumstances.. trickster just continues to fail to impress me..

Yeah, but thats kinda my point.. ST already have established players such as July and Bomber, and to a lesser extent Ace/Squirtle.. Really dont see much upside in them picking up an established protoss that has gotten kinda stale, without posting any real recent results..

i mean, a code s player is obviously valuable.. just dont think he'll add much to ST, hopefully ST can improve him more than i think he will improve them..

TSL will be better off without him and FD, rest of their players are as strong and have a better work ethic. Hell if Puma gets over his nerve issues somewhat he can carry TSL through half a team league the way he's been playing in online cups these past few weeks.

If July had lost the first game he would've had the freebie and if Tester then lost to Nestea they would've played anyway for the second spot. It changed nothing.

Waat. FD and Trickster were buddy buddies. I even thought they left together because in beta they always were together. They even made the TSL together.
Not sure I like the move to ST but I at least hope Fruitdealer is picked up with ST too. Maybe they will even start winning something

This is probably more likely, tbh. TSL is a team most players joined because of it's incredibly light practice regiment, and it's fairly likely that they see joining another team as a new opportunity to get good(again, in the case of Tester and FD).

Hope to see my beta hero winning again, soon. :3

I think this puts to rest all those claims about "Trickster didn't want to practice too hard so when TSL changed, he quit". I'm fairly certain that as it stands right now ST actually practices more overall than TSL and the results show that. Not to mention he'll finally have some sick practice partners for Z and T. Come to think of it, does ST have a star Protoss? You have Bomber as the leading Terran, July as the leading Zerg with Curious closely following but when I think Protoss I only really think of Ace (who has admittedly changes focuses from GSL to NASL), and Squirtle who showed some great promise when he sniped MVP two GSLs ago and hasn't been astounding since then and is also focusing on the NASL.
I think Trickster will finally be able to change from being a mediocre code S player to finally taking back some of the fame the beta brought him. I can only hope for the future.

This is mostly unrelated, but he was wearing a shirt that looked a lot like IM's gear in his Code S match.

Could have simply been out of his regular wardrobe, but it had that same giant wing logo.

I'd say Ace and Squirtle are definatley top protoss.
More so Ace than Squirtle.

Plus with the Trickster, i would have to agree tho. His SC2 name (티에스엘사기수.272), Translates into "Tieseuelsagisu". In which obviously it isn't fake. ( TSLSagisu ).

It's still a possibility that FD may join, ST have quite a low number of zergs compared to Terran and Protoss.
In addition, their star zerg is seemingly awful at ZvZ, so they may need a zerg other than July who can't be insta-sniped by the other teams sending a zerg in.

Startale are known as a more layback team. I guess it fits tester and fruitdealer.

Tester's interview says the following re: teams -

- Are you looking for a new team?
I guess you can say that. I am in talks with some teams, but I think I will need to talk more with my previous coach.


- What is your mindset like for this season?
Since it is just me now, I need to get even better results. I need good results if I want to make it to another team…


- Anything you want to say to the fans?
I hope they don’t worry too much. I will eventually find a team, and I may end up joining a team very soon. It may be as soon as the end of this week.


And then this re: FD:

We are living together, but we are not looking at the same teams. Fruitdealer has had better results so he may get to go wherever he likes.

Would be cool if he joined startale, though also said he is not joining a western team.

I believe the whole team is salaried, but Tester and FD were the highest paid at around $30k each.

Detective Waxangel!!

Would be cool if he joined startale, though also said he is not joining a western team.

Not surprised at this, to be honest. Don't they both have military service coming up soon?

I believe the whole team is salaried, but Tester and FD were the highest paid at around $30k each.


Ah, yes, that is correct.

No correlation, probably.

Ofc its just obvious that the founder of the team and code S players are salaried players

He and FD has at least been hanging to their S code thrones so I have hope that they will rise again! Sad that FD might join other team but it's good for them to leave TSL I guess. Maybe this will make them practice more and get more motivation. FD needs to join the ranks of Losira and Nestea. aka IM!

Good, now I don't feel bad about not being able to trade for Tester onto my anti-team in Fantasy.

Otherwise, good for Tester but he's never been impressive at all since Season 1. Hope Fruit can grab a team as well.

Hmm StarTale is one of my favorite teams, so it's good to see them gain another well known Code S player, but his results have been going down hill. As someone else said, I would rather see ST pick up someone with potential rather than someone who is already just surviving in Code S, but maybe they already have enough players with potential, and for now they want some relatively big names... and ST's training may help improve Tester's play. Hopefully he does well. Go ST!

Also, someone tell Tester that the name "Tester" is way cooler than "Trickster."

That's a good pickup for Startale, a toss with alot of experience who can help Ace and Squirtle get over whatever they need to get over in order to do well. Now for Fruitdealer.........

It's possible that they want to get a stronger already established line up, they have a couple of solid players but they already have a lot of up and comming players like Virus and Tiger.
Althought they do already have July, Bomber and Ace...so...Who knows.


Yeah, but thats kinda my point.. ST already have established players such as July and Bomber, and to a lesser extent Ace/Squirtle.. Really dont see much upside in them picking up an established protoss that has gotten kinda stale, without posting any real recent results..

i mean, a code s player is obviously valuable.. just dont think he'll add much to ST, hopefully ST can improve him more than i think he will improve them..

Edit: typo


Yea Tester won't add anything. Tester is still a beast of a Protoss despite the general consensense that he doesn't practice. The main reason being that he doesn't need to in the TSL house. Now thought he's joining a house where he isn't the top dog anymore and most likely will be practicing a bunch. Yea Tester adds nothing.

Pretty sure the whole main team got salary they were just the highest payed. Obviously new pickups etc probably wouldnt get salary but im pretty sure at least everyone with a GSL spot was salaried.

Now I'm really wondering why they left TSL. It's not like StarTale practices less than TSL - if anything, ST probably practices more - and ST also doesn't offer salaries to their players, right? I suppose it really could be them wanting to go to more foreign tourneys, but even that doesn't make sense, since TSL now has a shit ton of players in the NASL qualifiers.

If Rainbow and Tester and FruitDealer are all on ST, I think that would be great. It's like the korean "bonjwa trio" from the Beta all on one team Too bad Rainbow has to go to army sometime soon.

Is there confirmation? I mean, anyone can register as "startaletrickster" if they wanted to and had $5. I don't think it's likely that someone would waste money to pull a prank like that, but it's weird that Trickster would take that ID without publicly announcing his new time first.

Damn, I wonder what did StarTale offer him? StarTale has a lot of old/sort of old school players now (July, Rainbow, Tester, etc). TSL was the first Korean SC2 team to offer players a salary too. Now I'm anxious to know where FD will end up.

It'll be interesting to see if Fruitdealer follows Tester, especially considering that they are living together after leaving TSL + Show Spoiler +
according to Tester's post-game GSL Code S interview.


I'm sure that more details about their leaving from TSL and possible joining of ST and/or other teams will be revealed in the coming days, especially as players start talking about the move in their winners interviews.

I hope the new environment makes him better at the game. His NASL qualifier performance wasn't that exciting. I don't think there has been official confirmation, but it would be good for Trickster. Didn't think ST needed another Protoss but hey, why not

but July had 2 shots to qualify for RO16, while trickster only had 1 shot, which he took and succeeded. I don't understand why people think it's unfair for July. Fanboyism, it seems


+ Show Spoiler +
Trickster actually also had 2, he lost the first game to July.


Well he only had one... As soon as July won Game 1... July only needed 1 win to go through... he had a chance against Nestea, didn't win... second chance against Tester... same thing... while Tricksters* performances have fallen according to his haydays in the beta... his PvZ has remained pretty decent...

Can I ask why Trickster is 'stale'?

Isn't he one of the most diverse players? Able to cheese, macro and all-in you within a moments notice, I think that's his market. His good at all things, instead of just being a god at one thing. Dunno'

Someone explain please?

I disagree with the term stale. In Beta the guy was a beast but it seems as though he is playing a lot less or something. He was so unpredictable in beta it was fun to watch!

If this is true, I'm partially sad. As a fan of his forever now I was wishing he would get on a foreign team. However I believe he will do just fine with ST. Hopefully whatever issues there was with TSL won't be a problem for him anymore.

Because he's one of these guys who are in Code S for ages, yet never really have had any results. He produces some decent games, he also has his share of terrible blunders, and he's never really looked like a potential champ.

For most people (myself included), when you look at people like MKP or Losira or sC or Top or whatever, you can see the potential, and it's obvious that despite their lack of big titles, they are always contenders for one. When I look at Trickster or Fruitdealer, I can't help but wonder why are they in Code S while someone like Hero or Leenock is in Code A.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Trickster nor FD or anything like that, I just think that due to how GSL works, simply staying in Code S for a while isn't much of an achievement, and frankly, he hasn't done much more than loiter around the fringes of Code S.

When I look at Trickster or Fruitdealer, I can't help but wonder why are they in Code S while someone like Hero or Leenock is in Code A.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Trickster nor FD or anything like that, I just think that due to how GSL works, simply staying in Code S for a while isn't much of an achievement, and frankly, he hasn't done much more than loiter around the fringes of Code S.

Can I ask why Trickster is 'stale'?

Isn't he one of the most diverse players? Able to cheese, macro and all-in you within a moments notice, I think that's his market. His good at all things, instead of just being a god at one thing. Dunno'

Someone explain please?

Staying in code S isn't much of an achievement? I don't know about you, but if I could play on code S levels of play, and stay in code s for multiple seasons I would feel really good. I think it's a hell of an achievement.

So stale means he has no potential basically? I see a lot in him really, and I hope he goes far just to prove it too.

It's no easy task to even get into code a, and you say it's no achievement to stay in code s for multiple seasons. I really think you're underestimating the Korean scene. I guess everyone in Code S that isn't NesTea, MC or MVP are really just lingerers in Code S and should be replaced because it's not an achievement to stay in code s without that high of results. kk.

People leaving is quite simple I think. The team was over-rated for a long time, and since GSL 4 they've been pretty much washed up. The team continually fails to produce results, very easy for me to understand why players would be leaving it. StarTale actually produces solid results, consistently.

That's actually the shirt GOM makes you wear if you're not associated with a team.

I think it's done or otherwise you may be wearing some shirt that conflicts with their sponsors. Only a pro team are allowed to bare their sponsors.

Wasn't there just a post about Tester and FruitDealer joining Complexity based on some information?

Seriously, just wait for an official announcement, it's too hard to tell what's serious and what's not.

Wow I sure wouldn't want that. Feels better if he joins StarTale, and I think Fruitdealer is no good since gsl 1 glad we get rid of him. Sorry ppl!

Really unfortunate that Trickster had to leave TSL but glad to see he will land with a great team with great players to practice against.

on a side note, there are some really, really ridiculous character names for some players.

i think startale is a good fit for trickster, or fruitdealer for that matter. startale has great players to practice with, and he could live on his own like rainbow. living outside of the teamhouse may not be the best thing for his career, but he said he wanted to not focus so hard on starcraft i think.

Is that Trickster and Fruitdealer (3rd and 4th from the left)? I can't be sure - looks a lot like trickster though.

Also, I can't translate the comment >.< sigh.

wait why is he going to the army now. i thought he went when he retired 3 years ago -_-

and as a footnote;

tester was on toona sg/pantech when startale's head coach was then a coach (iirc)
goodfriend was also on toona/pantech until ktf was evil and ruined his career.

Because he was kickass in the beta, anyone who followed SC2 from the start was taught that 'Tester' was the best player around, and he was. Until he never did anything again somewhere between loosing to IdrA and GSL1.

People know he can do it, we're waiting for him TO DO it.

i wonder what TSL did to drive trickster away. i remember hearing he had the second highest salary on TSL and that FD's salary was 30k. That sounds like a lot of money to walk away from. I somehow doubt he's getting that high of a salary from ST

i don't like startale so much to be honest. They've got some great players, but i heard their coach is a dick... and that's just not the kinda coach there needs to be, i love how sc has some really supportive coaches.

There's really no need to be a hard ass in esports

it's not all about salary, TSL is getting worse for the most part, i mean FD and Trickster are some of their best players, and maybe they felt like they didn't have anyone of their status on the team, or maybe they want a different practice schedule/ environment

It will all come out in time. Just need to wait for them to sign with a new team.

Really? He seems to be a nice guy (at least on Twitter). Where'd you get the impression he's an asshole?

I approve! If Trickster and FD indeed left TSL to participate in more tournaments then StarTale is an obvious choice.

I'm also siked for the NASL line-up. I'll be watching often now to see my favorite clan, SlayerS, own it up, especially Cella!

I dont know why ppl hate on trickster so much. I watched his games yesterday and they were actually pretty good. He has a few decisions that are questionable but most of his play was good.

Really unfortunate that Trickster had to leave TSL but glad to see he will land with a great team with great players to practice against.

on a side note, there are some really, really ridiculous character names for some players.
Some highlights:

jin young park Fecalfeast.103

TheBestfOu TotesMcGee.530


Gave my spare account to TheBest :D!


I do not approve T.T
All this will lead to is more pulled scv all-ins and "worst banshee control in the world". Every opponent and viewer will face-palm when TheBestfou gets close spawn positions and does a 2 rax all-in. While there may be fans of his 100% aggressive style, I am certainly not a fan of how he approaches RTS games as a player. I don't recall ever watching a game from TheBestfou and thinking was the superior player in his gameplay, decision-making or micro/macro.

Didn't Trickster win the 'King of the Beta' Tournament?

I always felt like he was underappreciated, his style used to be very solid an macro oriented.
