NaDa to EG wouldn't be that bad; they're my favourite team, so that'd be nice. Plus we'd get to see him a lot more providing he lives in Korea, with more foreign tournaments and such. | ||

After all, by comparison NaDa did very well for a solid period of BW, but has accomplished only OK results in SC2. If a great player in SC2 did worse in BW, why be snobs about it? | ||

In reality, if his star power/advertising power is high in KR, you would expect a Korean team to pick him up first and foremost wouldn't you? He could use a statement of interest to play for a foreigner team just to motivate the Korean teams to compete harder for his contract. At the end of the day though... who knows! lol | ||

My point is that a player like him should strive towards making a deeper impact in the scene, not just put his name under the brand which would give him the best salary. What you said is completely true, but comparing Nada's role in SC2 with Boxer's I can feel nothing more but disappointment for Nada. I think in Korea the old BW legends are the guys to set an example and draw interest to SC2, using their names and accomplishments in BW. | ||

I mean, overall -- and to be fair to NaDa -- BoxeR's the only big legend who's had an enormous impact on SC2. The only other big "legend" to have given anything significant back to SC2 community would probably be Grubby, through casting, streaming, and general PR-related work -- and that only very recently. Everyone else (let's say the big-name players like July, NaDa, Moon, ToD, fOrGG, Lyn, etc.) just plays, pretty much. | ||

Nada is a smart guy. I'm sure there is a possibility he joins EG or another top foreign team just for money, but it'll take more than signing JYP or Puma. Nada is already established, he has money and he's his own brand. If he wanted, to let's say, take over ZeNex and make that team his own, like Boxer and Slayers, he could do that. The dude is beloved in Korea and one of the legends of e-sports like Boxer. With a year left before joining the military, he might want to leave a legacy that can continue when he is off in the army. | ||

I think Nada's playstyle is way too passive, it might have worked in SC1 but in SC2 terran is an aggressive race, and his playstyle is completely unadapted. He's got a lot of work cut out for him if he wants to win a GSL, he needs to rework his entire playstyle. | ||

I think Nada had a great shot at winning GSL May, but then Inca cheesed him to death and we never got the epic finals of Nada vs. Nestea. Oh Inca. | ||
