Good move by both players. Dragon was a SlayerS in name only since he didn't live at the house and never played for them in teamleagues. Sure he benefited from being on SlayerS initially because otherwise nobody would have watched his stream but at this point he needs to try other options if he's to grow as a player. As far as Golden goes people are overrating the SlayerS effect. It's the place to go if you're terran, but Boxer, Cella and co. have yet to develop a top zerg (Coca doesn't count since he was already good when he was on Zenex). Better to be a big fish in a small pond than remain as the 4th string zerg on SlayerS.

Seems like many Koreans have illusions of grandeur on how much they are worth to foreign teams and leave because of that.

I hope this is not the case here and he just wants to be part of the foreign scene, but who knows.


Its kind of true, look at hero and puma, neither are actually top Korean pros. The ONLY reason they are popular is that they are on non Korean Teams who can afford to send them to tournaments that the actually good players aren't at.


Hero have the most revolutionizing PvZ, its unfair to call him a no namer.

If Hero worked in PvT alot better, he would be a force to reckon with

See recent Homestory cup. MC is much better.

Not to say Hero is bad, but he is not a top tier Korean pro at the moment.

If Dragon is looking to focus on work, I dont see any big market team being interested in him.

Golden is a possibility for a big market team depending on what his demands are.

In the GSL, Hero has a 44% win rate in PvZ.

I feel like you have to scale down a bit with Protoss:

MC's "good" at PvT, yet only has a 57% win-rate in Korea for the MU. JYP's PvZ is quite a bit better compared to HerO's, though it's admittedly a bit inflated from the Weeklies and such.

Mostly, I think you have to scale down overall for Protoss. Not necessarily a balance whine, but keep in mind that MC has the highest Protoss win-ratio and he's hovering at 60-61% while the top-players of other races have 63%+ win-rates. And not just one but quite a few.

To the ppl saying that these guys are just after big $ abroad: Do you know what its like living in a team house and being in the bottom of the status ladder? Do you have any idea how much they make, if anything besides house and food? Stop acting like players like golden and dragon make tons of cash and lives in some damn paradise.
