The difference here is that Zenio wasn't comfortable in a team house setting and he joined TL on good terms with oGs.
No, the difference is that Zenio probably had the choice of staying with oGs as a member of TL (like Jinro) and decided otherwise, while MC has to move out of the team house as a member of SK.
MC has to or MC has decided to? We don't know enough information until oGs makes a comment.
Funny thing about this move is that, economically say, 8 months ago, this signing would never have come to truth, since they needed all the money from what their Counter-Strike team has gathered in over 8 months (many 1st, some 2nd and few 3rd but still getting cash from tournauments), since all money that SK players gather up is going to the organisations own bank account, thus making this possible.
SK should thank their Counter-Strike team for making this possible and giving MC a proper salary that he could've moved from oGs..
But as many of the comments before me have stated "WTF!?!?!"
I wish SK and MC the best of luck both economically and in the tournauments.

Oh, and I was kind of against both transfers, as it was a good player leaving a good team for a bad one.
I really like this site, but team liquid fans are something else entirely. The intelligence level is mind-numbing sometimes.
Good for MC, probably wanted to get out of the team house as well, which isnt possible to do while remaining on ogs. People like Huk/mc/puma are trailblazers for the entire scene,and this is beneficial for all aspiring sc2 pros as it shows that hard work and success will actually provide a comfortable career at such a young and trying time in their lives.

Care to share your inside info?
For all we know this was on good terms with oGs
It was well known that zenio wasnt pleased with the intensive style of the team house and that there was no hard feelings....
I was more talking about MC joining SK in bad/good terms with oGs
Hmm i wonder how Korean teams feel towards foreigner teams, they are losing players to them. After something like that Korean team will think twice about cooperting with foreign team. It isnt isolted issue as we all know.
Well this was kind of a shock to me. Hopefully this means, since he is the sole player, they are going to market the shit out of him. Lot's of streaming, still see him at foreign tournaments and what not, actually pretty stoked about this.

Basically a backstab from the foreign teams tbh, but business wise for the foreigners to gain the trust of the players is a wise move in the end.
