hm after the hype the community created, fueled by a few tweets and a picture of a silhouette this is sort of... anticlimatic.
nevertheless a great pick and the most rational choice considering JYP´s potential and results lately.

good stuff. Great for idra and puma to have a good protoss in their midst too. Especially idra needs to train his PvZ

While I agree with you, I doubt this is an example of that. JYP just didn't have a team at all, and EG had enough money to pick him up, and wanted a good player. So they did.

You scared? I am. of JYP and Puma yeah, not so much the others tbh
I think EG have a great lineup with solid players. I hope they will make more of an impact in team tournaments in 2012 - they certainly have the individual skill to do so. 2011 was totally dominated by Mouzsports outside of Korea in this regard.

Oh no, this wasn't an example of that at all! That's not what I was trying to imply, JYP simply didn't fit in at TSL and I'm glad he's found a new team.

Just curious, why wasn't JYP a good fit? It seems like every TSL player that makes a splash in the competitive scene they end up departing from TSL.
IMO, admittingly a superficial one, I think TSL is a dysfunctional team with dysfunctional management and JYP will be much better off being away from that team. Maybe you can shed some light on the situation.

JYP and Killer both didn't fit within the newly restructured and very strict practice schedule in the TSL house.
Coach Lee's management of the team is far from dysfunctional, however, a lot of players (see Trickster, Fruitdealer, Clide, JYP, Killer) didn't want to put in the practice time that Coach Lee was beginning to implement, and left for "greener pastures"
It should be noted that JYP is the only player to really improve after leaving the TSL house.

I have to agree with this. I can't be sure ofcourse, but there seems to be so many problems with that team. There has to be something wrong there. I have to think that the management is doing something wrong.

So, Clide switches from TSL to Slayers because he didn't want to put up with the practice time?
Doesn't make sense.
And if i recall correctly, in a news or something, it was stated that JYP / Killer left because they thought they could get more money by joining a foreign team, and someone (i think xeris?not sure though)said that especially Killer demands a hefty salary.

Oh wow, great pickup. JYP has shown some great play as of late and should be a great practice partner for the EG members in Korea. EG is gearing up to be quite strong again in 2012 with constant new additions.

Clide's main reason for the switch to SlayerS was that he wanted to play along-side some of his friends on the team, but the new practice schedule was the impetus that allowed him to make the change.
Again, Killer's salary was also a factor in him leaving TSL, but certainly not the main reason.

So first you say they all left because of a strict schedule, but then its not because of it. Then its because of salary, but not really. There is also the issue with players not fitting? It might be I misunderstood you, but I am getting mixed messages here.
Hasn't this been going on for a long time with TSL? They don't seem to be able to hold on to their players, so I get the feeling that they are doing something wrong.

I will explain why I get confused. He lists Clide and JYP under the players that left because of training schedule. But then someone points out that they left to SlayerS (joining EG means you have to train at the SlayerS house so JYP also counts here), so it doesnt make any sense that they left because of that. Then he says Clide left because of friends, and that JYP just wasn't a fit (which says nothing). Then its conflicting posts about players leaving because of salary or not. He posts that he wished Korean players would not want to join western teams to get exposure, which would point to JYP leaving because of salary, but then he says he didnt post that in this thread to make that point (Posting it in this thread implies that). Also Killer didnt leave mainly because of salary, but it was one of the reasons?
Do you see my point? Its impossible to pinpoint any reason for why they are leaking players. Thats why some get the feeling that there has to be something that isnt going so well in their team.

does it occur to you that slayers may have a less strict practice schedule? they may practice the same amount but they way TSLs coach makes them practice may not agree with certain players. also there may not be a single defining reason. so killer wants more money? he may also dislike the people/the practice/the house/etc. just because he's asking for more money than average from a foreign team doesnt mean his salary was the reason he left.
