Destiny knows how good dragon is as dragon has a winning record vs him (5 - 1 i believe). Maybe he could put in a good word for him.  | ||

It's also very different to reveal a finalized contract than to reveal positions in ongoing negotiations like Xeris just did. That's completely inappropriate. | ||

Your aware that it was stated around page 3-4 of this thread that people in Esports (players, team, Diamond (casters) know roughly how much everyone is making. If your simply a TL poster you have no idea. Basically the players know how much everyone is making, it just us the outsiders that don't. Eventually it will come to a stage that we will know, but till then the players aren't getting the short end unless there signing their first contract and have no idea how much other pros are making in there same skill level. | ||

January 16th, 2012, Seoul - We are sad to announce that Dragon and Golden decided to leave our team. Golden, who has been a part of our team since the very beginning, decided to part ways with our team after a long discussion with our management, where he expressed his strong desire to explore his opportunities in a foreign team. Dragon, however, decided to put gaming aside, at least from a professional perspective, in order to fully focus on work. We wish both players the best of luck, and we would like our appreciation towards both for being a part of our teama in 2011. Team SlayerS http://www.facebook.com/notes/team-slayers/dragon-and-golden-left-team-slayers/223578687726280 | ||

I was thinking Quantic since they're in need of some Terran power lol. They've been snagging a decent amount of players lately and they have a setup with Startale to accommodate for training in Korea whereas coL doesn't (to my knowledge.) Plus it'd be interesting to see how Dragon would behave under the same roof as Destiny :p. | ||

I have watched quite a bit of Dragon's stream and he's great to watch, and maybe alot of the engagement he gets from his international fans is making him want to join a foreign team more. | ||

Uhm, it says that he is assuming his personal intel sponsorship is huge. Idra doesnt have personal intel sponsorship, does he? I assumed it was Boxer. I think Idra/Huk gets around 4k a month as a salary? Also random benefits/EG doesnt take any percentage of tournament winnings etc I believe... | ||
