Yeah, this was at Copenhagen Games if I'm not mistaken.

Blaming it on bad results when they have 3 players from 3 different countries who doesnt even play the game full time + they are never sent to events except if it happens in their own countrys. I mean how many results can you have that way?

Madfrog wanted more salary without showing good results so SK dropped him.

Wasn't he just too busy with his job?

Seeming as the HoN scene is pathetic, they just need Testie to come over...then again DotA2 will probably be huge :S

Seems really strange they never invested in a better line up than this. I understand why their dropping it, but it would have been nice to see them improve it :/

I recognize Joe (from Denmark right?) and Jimpo, but their team was REALLY weak. It's like they just recruited 3-4 decent players and then just didn't do anything with their team after that lmao.

you can't really call that a team, it's more like a clan.
no surprise they didn't get results, all are mediocre players (never heard of joe)

Joe played in Copenhagen, beat Thewind in RO32, Merz in RO16 and lost to MC in next round.

SK don't have the money to sign good players/numerous decent ones

Why do you think they had madfrog on his own and now these guys? No offence to them but they're not top players, + with all the bullshit that goes on in SK these days with missing salaries, demanding prize money etc, it's no shocker that they can't find anyone.

The guy that rule league of legends are trying everything to get big before dota2 come out, it will be quite messy i think.

On topic, it's sad such an institution like SK isn't interess by SC2.

To be honest, I think that perhaps SK-Gaming should partner up with another team to co-team a SC2 line-up. It would be a great way to keep their hands in SC2 while avoiding the financial burden.

On a more critical note, I don't recall their SC2 line-up doing anything particularly relevant in the last 5 months. Also, is 3 members even really a team!? From this standpoint, it was wise for them to disband.

I hope the best for their players!

Ahhh, i don't know why is SK failing so hard with sc, both bw and 2. They have always had one of the best players in wc3 and cs 1.6

Yesterday they announced they were sacking their hon team and picking up EG's. Testie is already making tons of money from ads and making people pay to play with him, he's fine where he is.

inuh and jimpo are really good it's not because you don't seem them do top16 at DH or be in IPL or NASL that they are not good.
