Eee, you don't say everything about the situation with Gux. That was one of the major controversies between Fnatic trying to buy out Gux without SK noticing, which resulted in all kinds of drama. For SK's POV on that issue, http://www.sk-gaming.com/content/30070-The_facts_and_figures_behind_Guxs_departure is what they had to say about it. The Delpan situation was yet another controversy between Fnatic and SK trying to get players from one another. At the time, I viewed it as SK trying to get back at Fnatic from the Gux situation =.=. Anyways, I'm just saying you should present both sides of the argument so people can draw their own conclusions instead of only providing one side's perspective.

Edit: Also, if MC has any problems with SK, I'm sure he will have no qualms about voicing his discontent if it occurs,

Thats Easy! Slayers or IM,

slayers for MMA n boxer, IM For MVP :D

Also this was totally out of the blue, good luck to him, but i think his skills might decline without a proper team to practice with.!

Its becoming more and more difficult for top level koreans to go to foreign tournaments. In the interests of their career they are doing what is best for them. Rightly so.

Lol there's no doubt that SK have lost a lot of the prestige they once had. The CS team sticks because no other teams want to sponsor CS any longer. SK has had A LOT (!!!) of sponsor issues the latest 4 years (Acer dropping out on them and creating Team Acer for example due to different views). And also SK does NOT have that much super-top level teams that they once had, they struggled a lot with getting an sc2 lineup (and they still dont have one, just MC). Most of their other teams are limited to the EPS leagues and germany and are not holding a worldwide scale like the once used to. SK-Gaming is not what it used to be.

SK-Gaming used to be the premier esports site once upon a time, with the best journalists (people like Zechs for example), and the best article. Nowadays theres nothing intresting left on that site. a lot of the respected journalists has left the editorial crew. They don't even provide intresting news in their premier lineups game (cs 1.6) any longer. People rather google translate Fragbite.com or read HLTV.

Writing for SK-Gaming is like beeing i journalist in nazi-germany, the news are heavily biased. And if they're affiliated with any other sponsor then the ones who sponsors them the news gets removed.

I'm sorry if you have'nt realised yet but SK Gaming has been on decline for the last 4 years.

Edit: i cant be bothered finding sources all the time, heres a source of a few of the sponsors SK has lost in the last couple of years. If you google, you can find more detailed lists.

Hopefully this doesn't end up like Fruitdealer, Tester or Rain. >_>
Really weird choice in my opinion.
Best of luck! ~~

Tbh I haven't followed SK since I stopped playing WoW and lost interest in their arena teams, which would explain why I missed a lot of drama! Thanks for links/infos.

I just hope MC's been through the contract thoroughly so as to avoid any issues that may arise.
