no protosses. i guess its clever of them they wanna win(saying that as a zerg btw)

It's nothing to do with balance, if they had a Protoss as good as MC than obviously he would be on that list, but Seed and YongHwa are tiers below NesTea and Mvp.

4festor hit squad manifesting itself physically as a group of progamers?

Flying around, sniping our tournaments and expansions with their fungals and infested Terrans. No one can stop them; they take no prisoners.

My first post! :D
translation:

Peru terran Jean Carlo Moreira (IM, ID:Fenix) joined IM.

On September 1st, IM's head coach Kang Dong-Hoon revealed that Fenix joined IM immediately after the GSTL match between F.United and oGs. Fenix was a free agent for a while after his contract with fnatic ended not too long ago.

Today, Fenix competed in the GSTL while wearing a shirt with a Googim's Company(IM's sponser) logo on it. Even though Fenix was not wearing the official IM uniform, the shirt had similar designs in color and style. The meaning behind the shirt was 'joined IM'.

IM headcoach Kang Dong Hoon stated that '(Fenix) joined the practice house a few days ago and I thought it was a good fit watching him practice with the team.' He also mentioned that Fenix has a great understanding when it comes to learning and sharing ideas, and Fenix's habit of constantly rewatching replays gave the him a good impression. Fenix really wanted to join IM.

The effect of joining IM was great. Fenix managed to 3 kill in the final match against oGs. Not only was the 3 kill great, but the context of the matches was impressive as well. He showed incredible skills in only a few days.

The IM coach is planning on using Fenix in foreign tournaments from now on. He said, 'While constantly sending Fenix abroad to compete in foreign tournaments, we will make the IM team known all around the world. IM will make an expedition group that consists of IMNestea, IMMvP, IMLosira, and IMFenix to compete in foreign tournaments.'

Meanwhile, the IM coach is currently considering to recruit North American and European progamers in addition to IMFenix, and it is revealed that the IM coach is pursuing a progamer right now.

Edit:
ah... too late



Uh-oh , they're on to me!!

Head coach Kang Dong-hoon intends to use Fenix as the spearhead for IM's expansion into the foreign arena. "By training Fenix heavily and consistently entering him into foreign tournaments we will make the IM brand more well known. We will operate a foreign expeditionary squad consisting of NesTea-Mvp-LosirA-Fenix."

Well foreign scene, it was nice knowing you.
I for one welcome our new Korean overlords.

Holy shit, that's a hell of an expeditionary squad! It's like IM put together their own team of SEALs.

Suuuuuuuure dude.
If anyone then Thorzain.



the thing here is, mouz.ThorZain

I know he's in mouz so what?
IdrA & ret both had "regular" teams as well respectively when they went over.
IMO you cannot compare a small western team like mouz (yea, sorry, that's what they are in comparison, I know for us they are one of the biggest. But that's still bs compared to Korea) with real progaming team like IM.

However you're all right about Thorzain if he doesn't want to stay it's very unlikely for him to be picked up, I didn't know about that.
I also never said that SaSe wouldn't deserve it but I just don't think so.
Even Nani would make more sense from there POV honestly...


korean starcraft 2 pro teams are financially nowhere near their BW counterparts tho


I think it's more beneficial for a foreigner to train in a true pro team and get paid less then on a foreign team unless they have good practise environment like the EG house . Besides you don't know how much IM are sponsored . They are 1 of the best if not the best team in Korea with Nestea and MVP ranked 1 and 2 in GSL , they also have other amazing players like Losira , Yoda , Yonghwa so they certainly have some kind of sponsors .



Just look at Lebron James (I know it's basketball) he joined Miami Heat and took a pay cut along with Bosh and Wade. Basically I'm saying even though a foreign team may have a lot of money for example Evil Genius team, joining a top tier Korean team would give better practice partners. Only problem is the language barrier >,< I would think


LeBron still got a max contract to join the Miami Heat. His paycut from choosing to sign with the Heat rather than the Cavs was negligible (for LeBron, still a shit ton of money). The problem is most Korean teams do not give any salary whatsoever, and for the most part are unable to pay for travel to foreign events. Thats why we see Koreans joining foreign teams or teams setting up partnerships with foreign organizations. I definitely do agree with you though, in terms of trying to get better as a player you can't beat joining a Korean pro team. I'm interested in seeing how the IM brand develops from here on out :D

Uh, what? Mouz is in no way a small Western team. I would not even be surprised if they had more money than IM... unless you were trolling.

Playing against Fenix is like getting kicked in the balls.

Now, imagine getting kicked in the balls by 4 people at the same time.

YEAH, IT HURTS.

GG rest of the world. The only one who can beat Nestea is MVP... and they are sending them both to extract punishment.

mouz certainly has a bigger budget than IM. Also there is a thing called 'player contract' which most people seem to forget about.
