Congratulations Liquid!!! Good luck to Taeja and the rest of the team in their future endeavors! I hope to see a Liquid player lifting the GSL trophy someday, and this acquisition brings that hope one step closer to realization!

Probably the most skilled player on TL now (IMO TaeJa > Hero skill wise). Congratulations.

Has anyone gone to TLPro and seen the tweets from the players? I think the most telling is TLO's "welcome to the family" one. It really does show exactly how TeamLiquid roles, and why they're the beacon of good in this oh so dark land of progaming.

Go Liquid'Taeja! Kick DRG's ass for me. I'm a Zerg, but I'll revolt against the swarm for Liquid.

I can't believe all the crying about signing Korean players. This is a professional gaming team, you need the best players to be relevant/competitive.

This is such an amazing pickup. For me, having a Korean on a foreign team just gives me more of a reason to care about them.

Gogogogogo TaeJa!

I dont think we will see another non-korean pick up by a major team from now on. Kind of saddens me, but Im happy my favorite team will kick more ass now.

Well if the right FAs come along then who knows. But currently all the good foreigners are under contract, hence why you're seeing koreans being recruited.

What this looks like to me is the growth of a competitive free agency for Starcraft players, where very strong Koreans are going where the money is. It certainly looks good for e-Sports on a whole when teams begin to round themselves out with strong players. All we need now are the "minor leagues", .

Also, for those of you complaining that we never see foreigners picked up anymore, there is far, far less foreigner turnover than there is Korean turnover in terms of players. A lot of the very strongest foreigners are locked into contracts right now, but Koreans are exploring new options left and right. For all we know, a lot of these foreigner players are resigning onto the same teams as well, not testing the waters the way the Koreans are. If anything, I think we should be looking at the Korean team model, as it seems more and more players are gravitating away from it and seeking something different.

Fantastic news to see when first logging on
Congratulations Liquid and Taeja! I normally wish a team good luck and hope they have a healthy partnership but liquid always has it so I don't need to this time.

Good luck in Code S Taeja!

Foriegn scene hiring more koreans - why not just give up all together?

Don't get me wrong, i hate almost all 'pro' foriegners, but TL used to be a beacon of potential - a never dying flame.
Now its just another sell out team.

Farewell old TL.. farewell... you truly are gone now.

What's wrong with Koreans? Racist.

Picking up one of the BEST players who happens to be Korean is objectively far better than picking up a mediocre Italian for the sake of keeping the lineup as white as possible?

I'd consider TL to be an international team. The fact that there are some koreans on TL is a good thing! I'm sure that Zenio, HerO, and Taeja are all sweet baller dudes who are glad to be on a great team like TL.
