Tt-eSPORTS has announced a global partnership with Prime:
Tt eSPORTS and Korean Starcraft II team PRIME have announced a partnership today for Korea and global events in 2012. The partnership is effective immediately and will provide a cornerstone for Tt eSPORTS to begin entering the professional Korean Starcraft II scene that is so popular to worldwide fans. In keeping with the mission goal of providing the perfect user experience, Tt eSPORTS is hopeful that this partnership will continue to reinforce the quality and effectiveness of its gaming gear as it has over the course of 2010 and 2011.
In addition to representing Tt eSPORTS at Korean and international gaming competitions, this partnership will open the door to special PRIME branded products in the future, as well as provide the opportunity for current Tt eSPORTS players like the Taiwanese professional team Tt Apollos to train in the PRIME team house in Korea. Because this partnership is global in nature, Tt eSPORTS looks forward to seeing players such as fan favorite MarineKing attend more international competitions in 2012 following his upcoming attendance in the HomeStory Cup in Germany.
They didn't mention White-Ra! Is anything substantive going to change for him? I'm guessing he's not going to leave Ukraine (being married and all), but is this going to improve his practice (partners)? I would guess no, actually (due to time zone and server differences)...
so i wonder what will happen "mouse wise" I know mkp has used a logitech g9x for ever (like many of the prime players) honestly very few mice compare to it.

nope theres a TTApollos team in the TeSL in taiwan. Players such as Softball (he was in NASL season 2) and such. I'm personally looking forward to HRU xD Anyways...From the website:

Im glad for both teams, seeing as the ace players for both teams (whitera/mkp) are so dam popular it would be awesome if they made a whitera / marineking duo and tour them all over the world in every tourney.
Also the 2 teams should collaborate together on getting primezzang even bigger.
White-Ra to Korea would be amazing. He is one player who I think we can all agree would deserve a Code A seed for all his accomplishments in BW and SC2.

I cant tell if you guys are really this stupid. Just cause tt esports is now sponsoring prime, doesnt make whitera on prime since hes also sponsored by tt esports. Thats like saying since grubby is sponsored by steelseries hes also on eg. Doesnt make any sense
This i great news.. i hope White-Ra can take advantage of it and move to Korea for a while..even though i can't emagine him leaving his wife at home...
Awesome! I'm glad I was lucky enough to be at MLG Orlando to see MKP. Good to see he and the rest of PRIME will be at more foreign tournaments. Seems like a good partnership so far. Hoping them all the best
White ra could not go to korea and try to advance in gsl lol. He has a stable life with a house, wife, jobs (he writes gaming articles and stuff). He is not a teenager who can give up everything to live in a little apartment with 10 other teenagers playing all day.
But hopefully he gets invited to the next korea vs world (which i hope comes up soon!)
Wow. I'm starting to think that the future of sc2 is all teams being a collaboration of one foreigner team and one Korean team. We might want to start highlighting the teams that don't have Korean partnerships pretty soon.

He doesn't even need two weeks, he played 40 games or so over the weekend with Bomber at the Red Bull LAN and he was able to beat MMA at IPL3, granted it was the group stages, but it should be rather indicative of what he can do given good practice with Koreans. I hope this makes it possible for him to go to Korea for some weeks of practice. He wouldn't be able to stay for extended periods of time due to the fact that he's married.
Imagine how good he would be of EU-KR was a possibility and he would have access to the KR ladder, and KR practice partners, I'm sure many KR pros would love the opportunity to practice with him, everyone else already loves being able to practice with White-Ra and more often than not they jump at the opportunity if possible.
