The swiss zerg player biGs joins mousesports while Syck and the german team part ways.
http://www.mousesports.com/de/news/10176/
Statement Han Sang "biGs" Cho:
"I am really happy to join team mousesports. Although I had some really great times in aAa with my old teammates and staff, I have been able to improve alot since I joined. I hope I will be able to progress such as before and even better. I am looking forward to share great things with Mouz and I will do my best to represent it as good as possible in all the events I am gonna be in. I would like to thank mouz to give me this opportunity and a huge shoutout to my previous team aAa."
Statement Florian "PaisY" Schmedes:
"Before I will talk about our newest addition to the team I have to impart that Dawid "Rasowy" Wisniewski is forced into inactivity due to serious private issues. It is sad to see a player with such an immense potential not being able to play, but of course we all wish that he can get the problems solved very soon. Also a big thanks to Syck and good luck on his way in future!
With the loss of Dawid and one of our players heading to Korea for a period of time very soon, it was a necessary step for us to look out for a new player who will strenghten our lineup for teamleagues and several events. In the Swiss Zerg Han Sang "biGs" Cho we do see a lot of potential and since he will focus way more on Starcraft than he usually used to, we want to give him a shot to obtain his full potential in our team. Another huge aspect which favors Han Sang from other players is that he is allowed to play the German EPS, which will be our main goal to get him into as soon as possible. On top of that, he is Switzerland's strongest player and has proven it by securing himself a spot for the IeSF Grand Final in Korea. Additionally, biGs will aim for a WCG Grand Final spot at the Swiss National Finals coming up in early October. I am confident that Han Sang will meet our demands on him. Why? Because Korean blood runs through his veins."
edit: also interesting is that one mouz player is going to korea, i highly doubt it's hasu or mana and thorzain is just coming back so it has to be morrow.

I like to think I'm not completely ignorant of the EU scene but I have never heard of this guy and only faintly knew Syck
|
nice pickup from mouse sports awesome
|
Seen him play in various CraftCup/Go4SC2 tournaments, quite a good player, looking forward to see how well he does in such a team.
|
Morrow to Korea confirmed? He will become a beast there.

I don't think bigs has been to many big events yet, but I've seen him beat some of the very top EU players so this definitely has potential. As for Syck I barely ever saw any games from him outside clan wars. Congratulations to bigs and many cheers for mouz for being so awesome in general.
|
I'm watching quite a bit of streams and read pretty much every news site there is, but I have to say the same as Tenks, I have never heard of biGs.
|
Nice pick up Bigs is a up and coming player they saw his potential.
|
Morrow is representative for Sweden in the WCG, which is held in Korea. 
I can imagine that he will stay a bit longer there to practice like Grubby, Darkforce etc.

Ooo, I hope that means we'll see biGs more in the future. I've always wished he went to move events, never knew how to rate him.
|
Definitely a player under my radar. I'm surprised too.
I think Mouz know what they're doing! Good luck!
|
I've heared from bigs quite often, as he's switzerlands best player and he shows up at the top of various cups. Syck won the mouzesports talent tournement and got recruited for that, but hasn't really improved as much as they hoped i think.
|
If you haven't heard of biGs, you are not following SC2 as much as you think 
Good luck to him, i hope he can get even better!
|
He does really good in the EU online tournaments

I think he won 1 Go4SC2 a while ago but mostly seems to not really make it in to the very late rounds (1/4 and up).
If you do not really "look" for him it's easy to not notice him.
Hope he tears it up now :D.
|
Vaguely heard of biGs, glad to hear that he joined mousesport.
Sad for Syck, I followed him hoping he would be as awesome as he could be. Well, gl in the future Syck.
|
Looking forward to meeting his play Grats to you biGs

Oooh, I'll be interested to see how this signing pans out. biGs has shown some decent promise in a number of online cups, taken series off a number of notable players at one time or another etc. Given Mouz's strong line up that could be just the thing he needs to take it to the next level.
|
I was like, a very good swiss player?
then i read "Zerg Han Sang "biGs" Cho" and went
:O

He must be ethnic Chinese. Han is a Chinese name? If so, I'm excited!
|
Great pickup by Mouz, I knew he was a decent player with strong potential. I hope to see him soon at some event to see how he handles it. Mouz is one of the best foreign teams so he is really lucky to have been picked up by them, and I'm sure Mouz are glad to have secured him as another strong Zerg, along with MorroW.
|
biGs is a regular face in the weekly EU cups.
Not a top EU player quite yet, but joining a team like Mouz might be just what he needs to make it big.

it says korean blood in his veins in the interview.

sounds like a korean studying in switzerland more than anything.
|
biGs reminds me players like SarenS, More then capable of taking games of top players but hasnt seen much of the limelight, hope he matures as a player now he is representing a prestige team in Mouz.
|
Just to clear things up here :
you might have not heard a lot about biGs or ever seen him play because he was streaming on aaa's dailymotion account. As you might know, TL doesn't fully support dailymotion as a stream service that's why aAa's stream was only available on team-aaa.com.
(We are working closely with R1CH and are about to have aAa's stream available on TL).
biGs is a top 25 GM on EU and a quick search on youtube will provide you with VODs of him beating some of the most famous players.
biGs is a really great personne to work with and an amazing player, i am really sad that he's leaving aAa but in the same time, i'm really happy that a top team finally recognised his skills.
I wish him de the best of luck in his new team and can't wait to see him shine in internationnal events !
|
I'm going to say either Morrow, MaNa or Thorzain will be in Korea.
But most likely it's Morrow.
|
GOGO han !
(probably one of the few people who know him by that name lol)
|
|
|
Where does Mouz get all this money to pay all their players 0o
|
Yeah, it's likely going to be MorroW. In one of his recent interviews he explained he would love to go to Korea to train and compete in the GSL but the one/main reason why he is still hesitating is that GSL doees not allow you to play multiple races (as a zerg player to play T for TvZ instead of ZvZ).
|
Good luck biGs
Dont think I have quite heard about this player but I look forward to seeing him play at top levels. Maybe I have just been living in the cave.
|
It's MorroW, he's confirmed it in interviews long time ago. He said that he will be training in Korea a month before the WCG and will stay for a while after the WCG.

GLHF in Korea biGs.
IeSF will be a really fun tourney
|
whos biGs ? think theres better zergs ;<
|
Never heard of him :o but mouz probably knows what they are doing.
Really hope it's Morrow, continuing the swedish invasion of korea!

well in Europe there is at the top atm > Dimaga, Nerchio and Stephano. Right below, Morrow, and then i think Bigs
|
I actually quite enjoyed Syck's stream, the few times I caught it. Hope he's OK.
GL to bigs, more zergs is always good :D
|
Oooo sweet sounds like Morrow might be heading to Korea, He should have a fun time with his friends Sjow and Naniwa :D
|
If MorroW does go, will he be allowed to ZvP ZvT TvZ in GSL?
|
I am confident that Han Sang will meet our demands on him. Why? Because Korean blood runs through his veins."
haha, and I really hope MorroW goes too.

syck isnt really good, he got in through mouz talent cup (just like xlord did back in wc3), but didnt really do anything so im not suprised it ended. bigs is really strong
|
Mana to Korea would be insta code S champion ^^.

biGs was born and raised in Geneva. So no, it's not a korean "studying" in Switzerland. -.-

ret, vortix ,syz , xlord , even tefel or bly, all are better.
to the people that like to talk without knowing, han moved to switzerland long ago or was born there (it's quite hard to get to know this guy actually), he is not a student, he speaks french as a native, and yes he is of korean origins.
don't really know where they got their info from though, coz as far as i can remember (5 years or so), he has always been playing in a very dedicated style.
not the most popular / talkative / outgoing personality either, wouldn't dare using the word autistic, but not that far either. don't really know how they expect to get exposure with such a transparent guy :S

Mana said he had no intention going to Korea.
As far as i know hasu has neither, he has EPS to play, has a girlfriend in Germany afaik and
also said he has no intention.
Leaves pretty much morrow imo
|
nice to finally see a skilled(.ch) swiss player making it into a big name team. hope the best for you bigs show the world that switzerland can do more than cheese (pun intended).
|
Cool I guess. I have no idea who the player is, but hopefully they do well. Mouz has some great players.

I hope that too, both him and Thorzain training in Korea (mmmm) Is there any news about Thorzain btw, is he staying or going?

hopefully biGs will show better performance than Lomo or Syck :/

He's already left.
|
bigs definitely has been in switzerland for a long time
i remember playing him in wc3 events when the ESL alpen (austria/switzerland) was created which is quite some years ago
|
I knew him because I played him in a ESL online tournament I think, other than that I don't know much about him.
But I'm really happy to see a fellow swiss join mouz!
|
how's that a big news? did bigs accomplish something?
wish him the best to improve to be worthwile for mouz.
|
Played him a couple times on ladder.
He definitely has potential left, if he gets the right practice and is dedicated enough.
But he won't make a splash right away, he's not good enough.
|
biGs playing vs Mondi right now on Mondi's stream. Let's see what he can do :D

Yep. BiGs speak french without any accent (neither switzerland's one ^^) so he defenetly was born and raised in a place where people speak french. Geneva is a good pick.
He a great talent (beats Grubby and ToD lately, and loosed in a very tight zvz vs Stephano), and seems to be a very nice guy as i heard him in some french streams and events.
