Team Legion is pleased to announce some exciting new additions to our roster. After several long months of scouting, we have settled on a roster that we proudly announce to you. We hope the community will join us in welcoming them to the playing field.
I am very happy to have these new players on our team. Some of these players are relatively unknown, others have been in the scene since Brood War. But there is one thing they share, and that is a love for this game which shows in their play. It is my sincere hope that our organization can help these players perform and achieve success in Starcraft 2. -LgNDarigaz - Team Owner
giX is an avid Zerg player who was formerly on team ReIGN (RGN) before it disbanded. giX is one of the more practiced North American zerg players. We look forward to seeing his progress with our team and sharing it with you. giX will be streaming a lot very soon, so keep your eyes peeled! Stream [twitter pending]
Reborn is a Terran player who trained with fOu (FXO) for six months in Korea before returning to Canada to finish school. With a renewed focus on Starcraft 2, Reborn looks to be one of our clutch players. Twitter Stream
Kane is a relatively unknown Zerg player who has recently appeared in the scene with some very solid play. After watching his performance in tryouts we are convinced that he will surprise fans. [media pending]
Karmy is an up and coming semi-pro Protoss player with a very high amount of dedication and drive for this game. He will be moving to Poland to train in the International Team House You can view his blog about his training progress here. Stream Twitter
These players will join our current roster which consists of... avilo , Luxury, TheoRy , JimRiSiNg , AuRora StrifeCro (Coach), Destructive (Coach)

LOL scan sold an sc2 on him being "ex skt progamer"
rofl. biggest troll statement from foreign BW finally moves on to SC2 XD
|
grats! go go go gix fighting!
|
|
Nice to see andy on a new team. Always been one of my favorite players.
|
saw Reborn at the UBC lan in Canada recently. gl!
|
Oh wow, Scan was my favourite SK T1 pro. Hyped.
|
Gix one of the most underrated players in the scene, imo.
|
LGNKane was a real prick to Destiny on his stream tonight. "Blah blah blah, I'm 5-0 over you, you suck bro, why are you a pro gamer" etc... Really bad attitude to have for someone newly joining a team o_O
i mean i guess that stuff sort of follows destiny around, I only mention it because I recognized the clan tag in his name but it was before this announcement came out. hopefully he doesn't talk this way too much haha..

Doesn't matter at all, I played Kane the other day and he BM'ed me when he won with mutalisks on Tal'Darim and constantly called me bad because he won a pretty close base trade with them... I didn't do anything to provoke him either and am generally very good manner.

Well, I was kinda surprised myself to see that statement, which is why I ask that question in case I was wrong. Looks like another scam by Scan lol.

I don't know what has happened with scan, all I know is in SC2 he's a good practice partner and all around amazing player.
|

Scan match fixed in his qualifications for the TSL2 if my memory serves me right. Either way, his stream was fun to watch and I am happy that he is back in the spotlight.
|
I can see where this thread is going. I am awaiting the hammer on Scan with great anticipation.
|
|
looks like karmy is a diamond player... how could he qualify as a "semi-pro"
|
LUXURY! This guy is a beast protoss. )) Awesome pickup
|
Good to hear from LgN. Definitely sad about the loss of Boss, Mystic, and ESPECIALLY CHITA though. ChiTa was a fucking beast!
After some super close losses to Its Gosu and Infinity Seven in ESEA thanks largely to ChiTa / Boss / Mystic, I am wondering how LgN will perform next season in ESEA! Hopefully the new additions will fulfill the role of the previous koreans

Go LgnReborn! my favourite player check out his stream!

What a sellout. We both go to school with reborn and he's a damn good player. Best of luck to you, my friend, in Lgn
|
|
Cheering for Reborn, watched his stream a few times and he seems really good and have lots of potential
Everyone, watch his stream, good kpop music and fun to watch
|
ooh nice, gix and Reborn will be good to watch congratulations to the new team members!

Whoa I just saw that happen in real time! :D This is like mTw recruiting a player, and then releasing them all while I watched it happen over a few minutes in a thread. >.<

kane's a pretty good zerg. did gix switch to t or does he still play z? gl to these guys
|
Gix still plays zerg. At least he was when I see him on earlier
|
Well, there goes Scan sc2 career. Kinda curious what he told to legion convincing them that he was an ex-SKT1 player.
|

Well anyways GL to the team.

I apologize for laughing of something that caused you trouble, but for all the BW people who know Scan, it's hilarious.

(Speaking of the Scan incident, of course)
Man, Scan just keeps on giving.

|
Who is Scan? Im confused.

Really happy for Kane! I've known this guy for a while, just randomly met him on ladder and befriended him. Glad to see he's joined a strong team. Overall a very balanced team in terms of races as well.
One question though, what happened to Specialist? Did he leave with the other Koreans?
|
TheoRy and JimRising are still stronger than any of their new pickups(except for MAYBE giX but haven't seen him play since I watched over his shoulder at MLG Raleigh). <3 to all

woo lgn! I'm excited for Kane.
|
Gix is a good pick up. He is pretty much the ace for the team now hands down.
|
Arlock, you sneaky bastard! He's sitting at my kitchen table last night, eatting my cooking, and says he hasn't heard back from giX in a while, as far as joining LgN. Lies!
Anyway, grats Andy. I'm glad you've got yourself a new team. <3

He's not diamond. Whoever said that has no idea what they are talking about. Cheers.

Glad that gix found a team.

Cheers, and its not like i have anything against him but saying hes a semi pro when hes in diamond is pretty far fetched. Although i do give him a lot of respect for putting himself in a team house, I'm sure he will be a pro in a few months time

LOL I swear I wasn't kidding.
LgN Hwaiting~! We have such a sick lineup, can't wait to put it to work!
|
I just got my EU account and have been playing it the odd time to get it ready for when I move to Poland, The latency issue screws up a lot of games and makes me somewhat avoid playing at the moment.
|
So scan is not joining LgN after all? Trying to understand exactly what happened here...
He lied to legion then they realized truth and reconsidered?
|
it shows a 0 for your losses if you're below master since it doesn't track losses.
|
I just got my EU account and have been playing it the odd time to get it ready for when I move to Poland, The latency issue screws up a lot of games and makes me somewhat avoid playing at the moment. His NA account is more reflective of his current ladder ranking.
|
I'm 112 and 83 on my NA account. I haven't been laddering much, Doing a lot more practice games with teammates instead of worrying about ladder. My EU account is a smurf and I play it like a smurf, The mix of cross server latency and just doing silly things while streaming I haven't taken the time to get it masters, but I get to Poland and take next season seriously you can expect it to be a lot better.
|
LgNKane fighting! Used to practice with this guy a little and was on the same team, glad hes heading up there

It's pretty funny though, like even if Scan wasn't SKT he was still good at BW. Also funny that a team recruits him, makes a TL thread about him and then remove him based on what TL people say. They don't do research on their own and then instantly remove him, the bottom line still is he was a good BW player who's only been playing SC2 for a short amount of time and is probably as good / better than most of their current roster.
|
Am I think only one who pronounces "LgN" as "Lane" because "RGN" was the tag for ReIGN?
|
Great pickups from the team. Can someone explain who scan is for the rest of us who don't know and stop going off like "wow scan, really"? What did he do?

He used to lie about being a progamer and used to be really bm when he was younger. Then during the TSL season 2 he abused the ladder and gave himself free wins to earn points and got disqualified.

Since when is JimRising a terran player?

I lent Artist my account after I left fOu since I wasn't thinking of playing SC2 anymore at that time. Also, I was in SAGA before leaving to join fOu.
Thanks to everyone that has been positive about this! Legion hwaiting~

Apparently TLPD thinks he is. He has an alternate account that is high masters as Terran. He may have played Terran on his main account form time to time, but he's definitely still a Zerg player.

Scan is a good player, granted he is still learning and improving extremely quickly he still was not truthful with us. I have no doubt he will remain to improve and eventually become an amazing sc2 player.

Great pickups, LgN Fighting!
I still miss ChiTa though

Thanks everyone for your support : )
