Definitely saw this coming with all of the free agent talk and MC's good performance over the last 2-3 months. Wouldn't be surprised to see some more movements of big Korean names.

Uhhhhh, i dont think this is good news at all. This is a terrible deal for MC. Now he doesnt have a place to train. There is no way in hell he will improve at anywhere near the same level practicing by himself instead of in the house.

He took the money but now he will be a worse player in the future. I dont understand how companies like SK can invest in a player without providing some practice clause that allows him to keep up his practice. Its a dying investment as he will perform worse and worse as time goes on.

Not to mention , now he doesnt get to play in the Gom team league. Terrible deal.


But you really dont know that.. Maby MC is just start for SK ? . To be clear i agree with you 100% , but imo MC is not that stupid , he know whats mean no partners to play etc..
I just feel its only start of SK pro team , maby a house in Kr who knows.

MC was the one who was adamant about how important practice is, even skipping tournaments for a few months to stay and practice.

How could he be foolish enough to think that this will work out for him in the long run.

I mean unless they are giving him more than he made this year from prize earnings as a salary, the deal doesnt make sense.

Tell me about it. MVP's run started at anaheim till midway GLS Nov (even though he lost to MMA). Still don't get why people compare him to Flash.

Still that plan is easily 6 months or more away if thats what they are planning on doing (and we dont know that they are even) what will happen to his performance in the meantime, its pretty obvious he will fall behind.

I see your point. It is terrible indeed. He's way too young to idiom to rest on one's laurels.

Too many MC haters lmao. So MC doesn't deserve the Bisu/Stork comparison but MVP deserves Flash? lol double standard. GSL Nov, GSL December, MLG prov, Blizzcup. All major tournaments that MVP did not win. Selective memory? It seems most MVP fanboys live around MLG anaheim to the last GSL MVP won. With him nearly being eliminated by MC on both WCG and AOL2 lol.

This topic is about MC anyway don't know why haters have to derail so much. There will come a team when MVP cant cheese his way to victory against protoss and thats when ya'll should start raging.


...? You're kidding, right? MVP has beaten MC with standard play and cheeses FAR less often than MC. Your statements are even worse than the "MVP fanboy's" statements.

How can you be so foolish to understand that MC believes a lot in practice but joined a team without any other players to practice with. Trust yourself that MC isn't that foolish and that SK has something up their sleeves they'll announce soon.

I hope your right, but from the information we have right now thats what we can gather.

I would be more hopeful if they just didnt announce anything about where mc will be practicing , but it says right there hes practicing from home.

And i could easily see money swaying any beliefs of a poor kid from korea.

No because IM is still a korean team and MC is not even close to MVP's level. The difference is like Flash and BeSt

lol MC plays protoss and by that measure he's a fuck ton better than MVP. How many other protoss won GSL? None. Plenty of terran have, Not to mention 10x more personality which sells. And will sell product for SK. Check out fan club..many more members.

MC has more marketability than MVP period.

All I know is that SK better bring in more players, HongUn, Violet, Torch, Moon, Killer?
If for any chance of MC keeping his form, and do they even have a coach? :S

oGs looks weaker now in GSTL, MC was the only reliable protoss on their team (who didn't use DTs in all his matches)

I feel so cheated now, what if NaDa follows and oGs ends up with Supernova and Top being their aces TT

welli love mc so much but you don't know much about GSTL hes not reliable i believe hes had 1 good performance in like 5 showings Good Luck on new team MC!!!!!


Supernova has improved a ton since the last GSTL...not sure how Nada is more reliable.....

That's true that MC hasn't had good performances in GSTL, but he was still was a huge threat for teams so that they had to revolve their lineup around him, but my statement is true about him being only reliable protoss that actually had wins over Vines or Inca (who I don't think played in GSTL season 1) . NaDa was 2-3 in GSTL, not good, but it's not about winning record sometimes.
