Wow, nice! May I ask why you decide to train on the NA server and not on the KOR server? (if I can recall correctly, you can even train on the KOR server from NA, considering PuMa did this when he was staying at the EG house)

Evolution in e-sports begin here where more new teams are beinging to form. This team will be strong and recognized for its soon great success. Go team Legion and Go The Legion community.
only recognize chita and mystic, and havent heard much from them in quite some time... looking forward to seeing what you guys can accomplish nevertheless!
Trump is ok, I enjoy watching his stream to relax, but let's be honest, he's not exactly progamer material with how slow his play is (especially his reaction time and multitasking).Theory is decent. iDrone is definitely a good pickup. I remember playing him and seeing that he had a ridiculous number of games played, and he has a very macro oriented style. He's the one to watch out for on this team imo.
for a second I thought it was luxury, and by a small stretch I thought mystic might be savior as its similar to one of his USWest ID's... I miss them :[
big thanks to Legion for giving me a home cleaning up my act and taking my game more seriously by playing less games but on KR, and studying my own replays more. I feel confident that both my skill and manners will do nothing but improve as I am apart of LgN.

For those who do not know some of the Psw players actually had pro gamer potential but quit pro teams to play with their group of players because they found it more fulfilling. Because of this, the psw team is very tight nit and works hard together to not only play well but have good chemistry between their players.
That being said, it's awesome to see LgN being formed, I was quite sad when rS had gone to xsix(not that rS=lgn) but now they have very strong players and I'm looking forward to this team making some huge splashes ^_^

I was SO EXCITED about this happening! I'm not used to people recognizing me anywhere so I was telling my friends about it for the entire evening after that happened.

After all, Trump is awful.
Thats kind of unfair. Look at teams like checksix with HD, FXO with wolf, and even sixjax with artosis. Teams need known personalities to engage the community and trump is one of those. Hes no pro but hes definitely decent and will help get the team noticed.

I know. I was just making a point. Doa isnt a master league player which was kind of the point i was getting at with my list. Its master level players hired to high level teams just based on their popularity and arent intended to win tournaments.
Team LgN has been performing quite well so far. Finishing 3 scrim clan wars with decisive victories, and a handful of wins in online tournaments like xel naga tour, go4sc2, etc Our very own TheoRy went to MLG Orlando and made it to the losers bracket ro4 (registered as Travisano)
We look forward to showing the team's performance in the upcoming ESEA open season.
Help support our team. There are a variety of ways, but the easiest is just following us on twitter: https://twitter.com/#!/TeamLgN

Rofl, he doesn't mention Chita just won Playhem and $60, whata noob!
Their players are doing really well, the guy who said "I'll believe it when I see it" well, there ya go, already winning huge daily tournaments and more. Chita has been placing usually top 8 at least in these from what I've seen. !

because they are "code b" koreans and not quite good enough to join korean pro teams. plus foreign teams seem to get their heart rate up with the thought of adding any korean to their team. oh and foreign teams would tend to pay them some type of salary when korean teams tend to be more poor atm.

Did you not read my post? o.o;;.... saying they are not quite good enough for korean pro teams? xD
if you are going to announce your team as being pro, atleast have one decent player. Nevertheless good luck with your team, hopefully your management will be strong.
