From Sleep's twitter:

Bye slayers~

I leave slayers and new foriegn team finding..



Check is also no longer associated with Prime. Twitter:

@checkpooh Check hyung, did you leave Prime team?

@marconofrio yes leave team

Also he requested a name change to have Prime removed from his TL account name.

Both pretty good players now without teams, with Sleep publicly saying he is looking for foreign teams its not much of a stretch to think Check is considering the same thing.

I already made a prediction that Check would leave prime and become the first widely recognized bonjwa of SC2 :3 It's all coming together now, step by step. Bit by bit.

It would be interesting to see Liquid pick up Sleep. I feel that Sleep is very underrated right now, qualifying for IPL3 and holding a 1-1 match record with Hero. He was eliminated from IPL by MMA, who has very strong TvZ.

Oh i'm pretty sure that they will be a valuable addition to any team they join.
Rain was seen as a mediocre player who uses cheese to get far in GSL. He made some nice MLG runs that have shown that he is a pretty good player. I'm sure Sleep and Check will be a good addition for any team.

Check has never been in Code B . . . ever. He had good enough of a Code A run to get into up-and-downs and is in Code A for November.

I don't think I would seed Check as being stronger than NesTea, LosirA, DRG, July, or Curious. But hey, your opinion is your own.

Not to be a negative nancy, but I don't think neither Check nor Sleep will be good fits in foreign teams, especially top-tier ones. The reasoning I give for this is that their individual-league performances have been severely lack-luster, compared to the other select-few Koreans already on Foreigner teams or in Team Partnership Programs, whom although have all shown signs of slumps, still generally are top-rated (Puma, MC, Hero, Nada, DRG).

Best of luck to their future plans in SC2.

Check has actually looked pretty beastly recently. Much improved over his older showings. Must of had this move in mind for a while and ramped up his play. Much like pro players do in the last year of their contract before becoming a free agent.

I misread Check's history. Apparently he's been stuck in Code A forever. So yeah, I guess he isn't in Code B. But definitely not top 5.

But whatever floats his boats. TheBestfOu has top 3 control for me then.

Man i think this will be the end of prime.
It's not that good of a team, best players being MarineKing and Check.
Check is some kind of a coach there, being the most RTS knowledged mind at the house.

But kinda excited, cuz feel like the team has been holding check back, him and marineking aswell.

It's not that good of a team, best players being MarineKing and Check.
Check is some kind of a coach there, being the most RTS knowledged mind at the house.

But kinda excited, cuz feel like the team has been holding check back, him and marineking aswell.

Unfortunately for a "top 5 Zerg" Check is in the abyss that is Code B. He's no DRG.


Remember that DRG himself spent many months as a Code B superstar.

Well, Check just finally got one thing: he will not show anything great in GSL and he will not ever win a GSL title so the only way for him to get a lot of money and wins - foreign scene.

Dunno wtf with Sleep, mb he doesnt like 24x7 BoxeR's style of practice.

I wonder when foreign teams will realize that having a Korean flag next to your TLPD profile doesn't necessarily make you good. Tandongho, Hwangsin and Artist have done nothing of note since joining foreign teams. Whatever skill Check and Sleep have right now will erode away within a few months just like it did for Rain.

Not sure about all of them, but at least Artist has better tournament showings than he rest of tis team.

Mmmm i liked Check in the beta, but after that he just didnt seem to keep up with other people. I'm though a big fan of slayers, so sad to see Sleep leave.

I'll just hope both of these players get picked up by foreign teams, because without a doubt they'll be amazing assets and practice partners to any foreign team.

Yet all those koreans still perform really well for their team relative to their other members. Should they hold a different standard for who they recruit just because they're korean?

Agreed with this, the best foreigners are getting good by practicing with Korean teams, so taking players away from that practice environment and expecting them to do well is a little misguided.

Although RGN now has a team house near Oakland so at least they're trying to replicate that environment.

Ah, nvm. I was not kiddin' but I was mistake because I though Artist managed to make it out of the pool play in mlg. Well, that Gix managed to beat Huk in a bo5 certainly deserves respect. As for the rest, well none of them have been performing really well in the last few months.

Anyways, I am looking forward to what teams check and sleep will join. Though I am kind of irritated because I seem to get the impression that several Koreans deliberately join foreign teams hoping it will be easier (which is hopefully just a stupid impression by an even more stupid leecher).

I knew about Sleep but now Check too? Wow, maybe they'll join the zerg-needed Fnatic as suggested before.
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

Yes. Foreign teams should be fostering the development of the foreign SC2 scene. Resources are limited and when a foreign team takes in a Korean that's one less foreigner they could be accommodating instead. Koreans are expensive because you have to fly them from halfway across the world to compete in MLG, IPL, etc. This would be justifiable if said Korean did well in tournaments and brought the team publicity like Puma for EG and Hero for Liquid. I don't think Sleep and Check are on their level.

I don't think Sleep and Check are on their level.

I'm not gonna sit here and argue that Check is better than Hero or Puma, but at least Check has been a solid code A player and has at least graced the up and down matches and almost got in too. Sleep isn't good, but to say Check is on a level below Hero and Puma? On what basis?

Also, everyone is flying across the god damn world, but if you try to sponsor bad players and put them in tournaments they won't magically become good. Their skill level is just lower, not that they just don't have tournament experience. Bringing in good quality players can only help your team improve.

Not sure about all of them, but at least Artist has better tournament showings than he rest of tis team.

edit: in particular talking about the ipl and the last mlg.


You're kidding.

RGNFuture- losers finals last mlg
RGNKiWiKaKi- do I need to say something here?
RGNSlush- Pool play
RGNSpades- Mulitple winners finals in past mlg's
RGNGix- Beat HuK to represent usa at WCG

No tournament showings? really?


Why would HuK be representing USA at WCG? Isn't he Canadian?


Ask him, he made it to the finals of 2 of the American qualifiers.
Possibly because hes a US citizen?

I recall while watching Check lose a game, that Artosis was saying he felt bad for him because he wanted to win a title, or have a good run before having to serve in the military.

I could be wrong, maybe just my memory. But if that's the case, I wonder how long he has before he's done playing SC2, at least temporarily? It'd be hard to join a foreign team if he's going to stop soon.

I will add that he is pretty good. To be honest, I'd put him at or slightly above Rain's level - that's easily enough for foreign team material (even if he seems like shit in Korea, the competition there is insane)

Throw in the new BW teams as possibilities. They would pay for experienced talent to speed up the training process in whatever way they can.

Yet all those koreans still perform really well for their team relative to their other members. Should they hold a different standard for who they recruit just because they're korean?


Yes. Foreign teams should be fostering the development of the foreign SC2 scene. Resources are limited and when a foreign team takes in a Korean that's one less foreigner they could be accommodating instead. Koreans are expensive because you have to fly them from halfway across the world to compete in MLG, IPL, etc. This would be justifiable if said Korean did well in tournaments and brought the team publicity like Puma for EG and Hero for Liquid. I don't think Sleep and Check are on their level.


What accomplishment has Hero had that you call him better than Check? Check has a much better GSL record than him. He has been in every GSL, while Hero had a hard time even qualifying. He dropped to Code A, but almost made it back to Code S in a very tough up and down group, only losing to Losira after 3 tie breakers.

I think SlayerS should pick up Check, from what I have heard from Artosis and Tasteless check works harder than almost anyone and plays non stop. A work horse in the SlayerS house would only benefit everyone in that house. Gl to check!

Unfortunately for a "top 5 Zerg" Check is in the abyss that is Code B. He's no DRG.

I like the part where you use DRG the polar opposite of Check. Hell Check isn't even that good but I'm quite positive Check held his Code S spot a few seasons longer than DRG.

I'm not even sure what DRG has accomplished yet outside of GSTL and winning LG 6 months ago. Oh and getting knocked out of Code A only to regain his spot by placing 4th in MLG to get a free ticket to Code S.

Let's be honest, the top five zergs...FACT:Nestea 1-3 then it becomes opinionated for the remaining two spots.

I lol'd pretty hard.

Anyone know what their reasons were? For Sleep, I really don't think that leaving SlayerS for a foreign team would hold anything necessarily positive. SlayerS has already joined up with EG, if he was just looking to get into the foreign scene I'm sure that EG would do their best to get him over to the house.

DRG didn't finish 4th at MLG, finished 3rd. 4th place can't get Code S. And he didn't get knocked out of Code A. He just didn't make it to up-and-down matches. If he hadn't got Code S through MLG, he would be in Code A again next season.

Regardless of all that, Check is a very good Zerg, and has recently improved a lot.

Very true, here's MKP going 0-1 vs IdrA and 3-3 vs White-Ra.

i agree, as soon as they leave that korean training environment they really arent better than any other foreign player

tandongho/rain/hwangsin all have about a 50-60% winrate in international tournaments, and rain is a former code S player..

I know nothing about sleep but check is very tatented player not just with zerg but with all races. I have always felt that he lacks motivation, however, and I wonder why he chose to leave prime. In any case if I where a manager of a foreign team I would try to pick him up right away.

From what I've read, check left prime because he's coaching another team (not sure which team though), so I doubt he's actively looking for a foreign team.

Sleep on the other hand definitely looks like it..

Check leaving Prime kind of sucks for the team. He was their team captain. This, coupled with the departure of Polt, is going to be bad for Team Prime. Best of luck to them in the GSTL.

those players with the partnership don't compete in team leagues with complexity though. Thats just sponsoring them to travel to western tournaments.

hmmm i think both would be solid additions to any foreign team. Korean rosters are so deep where foreign rosters are really 5 or 6 people strong. Any of the teams would benefit from having these guys. My guess is Complexity since they missed out on stephano seems logical right?


I don't think so, they already have that partnership with MVP.
those players with the partnership don't compete in team leagues with complexity though. Thats just sponsoring them to travel to western tournaments.

They do compete together in teamleagues, tails has played for complexity in EGMC

I think mym closed its doors.

Anyways no matter how unsuccessfull check and sleep is (the latter one recently managed to qualify for the ipl3 through a monstrous bracket though) they are still much better than the average member of most of the teams. And there is not a single team which does not invest money it at least one player worse than those two.

Check said a few GSLs ago that hes been putting his Military service off and continued to put it off when he did well in GSL, as he recently hasn't been doing so well, Military Service = Possibility.

Just throwing it out there.

Saw SlayerSSleep talk about contacting Team ReIGN on twitter, maybe they could be a possible landing destination? I seem to remember a picture from MLG with Inori wearing a ReIGN jersey as well...was that just to have something to wear or was there more to that as well?

I bet they join StarTale. You heard it here!

Edit:
Didn't follow Check much, but I hope MorroW hooks up with a great team, and a higher-level one at that.

Oh i'm pretty sure that they will be a valuable addition to any team they join.
Rain was seen as a mediocre player who uses cheese to get far in GSL. He made some nice MLG runs that have shown that he is a pretty good player. I'm sure Sleep and Check will be a good addition for any team.

Hero was even way more unknown than Check and Sleep, he still got on a foreign team. I'm sure coL, QiM, or any of the big funded up and coming teams wouldn't mind picking up either of them.

Just posted on ReIGN's twitter :

We know many of you are curious about Sleep and Check and ReIGN. We are always looking to improve our team and we appreciate the love.

Check is one of my favorite players to watch, only because he looks so angry all the time. I swear, looking at him in the booth, you'd think he just really wants to go home.

Yep, but they had insiders, living with him, basically they knew exactly what they "bought". And Hero is cute <3
Check was really good last GSL season, but how much can a foreign team really know about him ? That's the hard part. They can't be recruited only for their name value, and they can't also be recruited because of inside informations.
What I mean is, they're a lot more risky acquisition for a team than Hero, even if he was unknown while they're not.

Not a good comparison to use HerO for several reasons.

1. HerO WAS more well known than Sleep.
2. He lived at the oGs house and became very close with Jinro and Huk so they had a natural connection with TL.
3. He also made friends with Haypro, Ret, and TLO when they were there.

I was wondering about this as well. The selection thing just seemed odd all around.

The Code A casters also mentioned he wasn't living in the team house or even practicing with them anymore (I think he was practicing with NSH instead?).

As for Sleep and Check, I don't know how easy it'll be for them. Most Koreans picked up by foreign teams seemed to be going abroad to live (Rain, Tandongho, Rgn.Phoenix) or really low profile (isCrazyMoving, Hwangsin, Artist) and hence cheap (wild guess)... or Hero (really special circumstances)

Sleep and Check don't really fit that profile, any good team is also going to want to know Check's military service status before signing him as well. Sleep to Complexity as their Stephano consolation Zerg does sound like a logistical fit though, especially since he could stay/play with MvP (another wild guess that the teams are that close to house each others players long-term).

Hero was scouted by liquid players for months. He just need the oppurtunity.

But as a spectator of SC2, I know way more about Check and Sleep than I ever knew about Hero. I'm surprised a lot of people in this thread think they're not gunna get a chance to get into team.

Lets face it, I don't think Hero would even be a topic of discussion for a lot of posters here, if TL didn't pick him up. But I definitely think Sleep and Check have a lot bigger chance of being picked up by foreign team, than Hero did (aside from TL's choice of pickup).

What does the recent tweets between Sleep, Ryung and Taeja say? Is it relevant to this?

Starts here:
