I am glad MC and Nada now have reliable support for foreign events. I just wonder how much though know about SK's shady past. Maybe they have changed...
SK has sponsored hundreds of players and dozens of teams, it isn't too surprising that ONE of the teams was "shady".
I think the acquisition of NaDa and MC is great and I hope to see them participating in many foreign tournies!

You should go read up on their HoN team from last month. I am not just calling them out because of one team. They have a reputation for picking up shady players, I just picked the most extreme example. Its the sad truth, and I hope Nada and MC won't end up regretting their decision.

Oh so you add HoN as an example, probably the 2nd most unprofessional and game full of ragers there is behind WoW's PvP scene. Pretty poor examples to be honest in both those games are filled with "ragers" even the pro's. Honestly most Esports are filled with that type of behavior, SC2 just trys to take its self a lot more serious then most.

Oh, stopped following HoN as religiously as I used to. Was that the shenanigans with Tralfamadore? Egad, yeah, I hope everything works out for Nada and MC.
Though, SC2 is generally a much more mannered ESPORT and also there's a lot less player interaction than in a game like WoW or HoN. Also the players ARE Nada and MC so unless the management is corrupt, I don't think there should be any issues.

What a cheap move!! Dropping their players and picking up renowned players that are in a team to represent them outside of Korea. Anyways is there any point doing this ? sponsors?

2nd? I'm afraid if there's one worse than it.
Hmm, Dota? haha not sure what you're aiming at but dota hon may aswell be the same thing.
I still remember Sk in their glory days! Dominating CS, WC3 and fifa. Its kinda sad how they are slowly dieing, it wont be long until SK completely disappears from e-sports. Gl to them tho

Even if they have the SK tag outside korea, everybody in the world now MC and Nada are oGs members. No one is fooled. So it's 200% in favor of oGS coz they receive money from SK for the location of player and % of gains probably and they keep their notoriety outside korea even if their players wear the SK tag. SK will just win easy victories and without management.
Who cares? MC already representing "liquid ogs" whats the point of that SK thing? What does SK expect to achieve with this? MC will make some nice money with it I guess, but thats pretty much it.
The most we ca hope for is seeing mc in more foreign tourneys, but it didn't seem to be a problem so far to get him anywhere, also didn't he just say that he wants to stay in korea for a while to get in shape again?
This is some seriously weird stuff. I mean, to me, it seems that SK gaming decided they wanted to put a lot of money into SC2, they probably tried to sign European and Korean players to start with, and when that failed, they approached oGs with a lot of money to be able to say that MC and Nada are SK players. I really don't get that though, it's just such an obvious PR-trick. Well, well, more money into E-sports is always a good thing I suppose...
