Sigh, that was a totally different story because it was Sen who decided to leave for the Taiwan league thingy not the other way around like in this case.

Same with KR. He wasn't forced to leave, he left on his own accord.

I think Kawaii will get picked up by QxG or Col. Quantic has been picking up a lot of players recently and Kawaii would definitely be a solid pickup. Hopefully he will start stream even more now. ^_^

He's still going to HSC4... Fnatic had nothing to do with sending him, I am personally sending him

"Additionally, we would like to announce that Adrian will be attending HomeStory Cup 4 on his own, so make sure you look out for him in Germany in 2012."

"OWN HIS OWN"

I didn't even say Fnatic was sending him, why so offensive?


What are you talking about? People were asking "o since he left Fnatic I hope hes still going to HSC" so I clarified the situation ~_~

Wow lots of foreigners teams are getting rid/losing their players.

Look at FXO, i dont think any of the players that went to KR are still on their team.

Was never really impressed with Kawaiirice. His results were mediocre closer to the beginning of the game (post beta 6 months) and almost nonexistent afterwards. I think it's a good drop by Fnatic, It was an unnecessary salary to be paid. Kawaii probably will be picked up by a tier 2 team, but I dont think (i've met him before numerous times so I'm not talking out of my ass) he has the motivation//dedication to be a star in the scene again.

Good luck KawaiiRice, hope this equates to "bigger and better" for you... I remember the first replay I saw of SC2 in beta was you vs some guy (I found it, Kawaii vs Azz on Steppes of War)... How you become classic already in my eyes KR?

It will be interesting to see what Fnatic has planned for the SC2 team, and who they will pick up now. I wish KawaiiRice the best, as I've always enjoyed his streams.

For those wondering (and too lazy to visit their website;):

Fnatic Main line-up:
-ToD
-NightEnD
-Rain
-IefNaij

Korean Academy team:
-August
-Skit
-Porigo

And Fnatic isn't bleeding. They're cleaning ship so they can get back up there with the best, like they've always done in game. They're probably just waiting for current and potential sponsors to make up their marketing budgets for 2012 and possibly for players to run out of contract.

Good luck to KR! Always a fun Terran to watch play, some team is going to be very happy with him.

I've always been a fan of KR, one of the most straight up terrifying foreigner TvZ styles. I hope you find what you're looking for and can manage to make the Kiwi-Clones into a mainstream team; it's a really cool idea. GL with your endeavours.
