Only 2 days of waiting though.

Ridiculous...

A lot is going to change? this guy has been teamless for over half a year? He's a wc3 legend and he hasn't even comitted but already placed 2nd at 4 of the 5 foreign events he attended. Now he can attend tournaments and also pursue his SC2 career.

A player of Moon's caliber will never gain anything except money from joining fnatic. They have no good practice partners, no Korean team partners, or even a practice house. I don't see why you would want a player to join fnatic, as it will do nothing to help his game.

That's the way I see it.

Er, I don't think Moon will have an issue negotiating to stay in a Korean teamhouse somewhere if he really, really wants to. The main thing is that he has a family now though (wife + a little kid), so money's sorta important to him atm.

2/3 Fnatic players are living in Korea right now (ToD and Rain).
And 2 Fnatic Academy players live in Korea. Thats four korean based players.
The only player who doesnt live in Korea is NightEnd. Fnatic also has a Korean manager (the guy who translates for Rain at MLG events). And also Moon is married so he wouldnt be able to live at a teamhouse anyway.

It is Moon. 100% sure. Chin slightly hangs to the left and down in the drawing, which can be seen in any real pic of Moon.

aaaand there it is, someone found the original pic^

I don't understand the hype behind moon. He was a legendary WC3 player (like grubby), and he hasn't shown much results thus far.

Being a WC3 legend =/= an SC2 legend (for example Grubby, at least not yet)

2nd place at Dreamhack Summer (eliminated Bomber in the semis!)
2nd place at IEM WC (ahead of Idra, Squirtle, Sjow, White ra etc.)
2nd place at China 3D Electronic Games (beat MC and Nada)
2nd place at IPL Pacific (placing ahead of the like of MC, Sase, Naniwa, Sen etc.

Think like 9 people already posted Moon's results while being part-time sc2 player which is a better list of achievements than most players have.

Truly spoken like somebody who has no idea what they're talking about lol. His accomplishments have already been listed and those all happened while he was only playing sc2 part time. Somebody as good as Moon was obviously has an incredible talent for RTS in general; he will be great at Sc2 too.

Why can teams just not announce their acquisitions until they are ready to say WHO it is? P.S. It's Killer.

Auctally I'm really hyped for Moon joining Fnatic. As long as he is able to play both sc2 and wc3. Would make the most sense for moon and fnatic since Moon is still playing wc3 a lot and there are a lot fo wc3 leagues going on.

I know he has results.

I'm just saying, people are hyping him like he's MVP or Nestea.

He's good, but it's an overhype imo.
