Good thing is MC and NaDa flys to EUR NA events more often. Bad thing is to see that SK uniform. The wins will still credit the players and oGs for training them. | ||

seems so odd to me that ogs would allow this partnership considering they already have some kind of deal with TL | ||

Does this mean they are basically playing for two teams now? | ||

Its a great deal for SK, Nada and MC get more exposure(and money of cause) and ogs/& sponsor isn't directly affected by it(I am assuming ogs will get paid by SK for loaning the players). i don't see anyone losing out in this sponsorship | ||

Anyway seems like a good deal for both regardless of what the terms are. I can not imagine OGS gains that much from EU/US publicity anyway, i personally have no idea who they are sponsored by, but I assume it is mainly by korean sponsors. So sending MC/Nada to EU/US events its like "great all these people love our players and team, but they have no connection at all to our sponsors as they are all korean based so we get nothing out of all of this" This is a STARCRAFT related site, and SK has never done anything with SC. It doesn't surprise me at all that some people here have little knowledge about SK. | ||

Just think of SK as a sponsor rather than a team. In return, MC and Nada wears a SK jersey when they're outside of Korea. That and oGs-TL is more of a training partnership where as the oGs-SK deal is a business partnership. TL and SK have no affiliation whatsoever (unless it explicitly says TL is but that is highly improbable). | ||

This is really a great deal for SK, showing how big SC2 already is. Indicating that there likely is more to come, this is just great news. | ||
