But the reason they didn't sign was due to the possiblity of oGs reforming. I'm sure by the time oGs disabnded it was free g ame for all players. The reason however for no possiblity of reformation is because the players decided ahead of time to join foreign teams, maybe they contacted them at this time causing no chance of reformation but we don't know for sure

Probably true, but I imagine the guy was working off of the OP and the information in it.
Want to bet on which player gets signed next? (supernova)

TheSTC said in his code a interview that the players wanted to pursuit chances with foreign teams and they decided not to form a new team. TheWind is probably heading to on of the bw teams right now.

well, it looks like ogs is gone for good... too bad, was hoping it could reform but apparently it's just not going to happen. Pretty shocking.

I'm not sure if it still applies but i remember when the sc2 scene first started, kespa made a rule saying all bw players with progaming licenses are banned from kespa sanctioned tournaments for like 3 years or something like that. So I'm not sure if ogs players, which I believe are all former bw progamers, are allowed to be on kespa teams.

Aria joined Prime for those who care.

forGG answered a question in his stream last night saying he prefers a foreign team actually. =)

According to an industry official, (basically a person that worked for eStars) eStars decided to cease operations (they say this a lot for some reason, that's why I keep repeating ceasing operations) with oGs, and decided to sponsor team Xenics Storm, a League of Legends team coached by YellOw. The official stated that the real reason for oGs disbandment was because of lack of funds and eStars deciding to cease all operations. (seems kind of redundant here but w/e)
Did yellow kill oGs? It's been known for quite some time that LoL is more popular in pc bangs than SC2 atm. Thus it being a more popular game in Korea. Not disputing LoL is more popular, but the PCBangs rankings don't really mean anything. Of course a free-to-play game that has a team aspect of having people around you is going to be played more at a PCBangs than a game that costs $60 and is mostly 1v1. People who play SC2 in Korea more than likely already have a good computer and have no incentive of playing the game at a PCBangs. For LoL, you can just go there with your friends or coworkers after a long day, sit down and play for free in a team environment.
Thanks for the statement, ppl should read this and stop whining plz =[

Seems fair, I'll take that bet. What if we both lose?

I'm just going to cut right in to this lovely conversation because I need to voice my opinion. I'm really sad oGs disbanded, they've been my favorite team since the beginning of SC2 competition - and also the only team whose name contained the initials for "original gangster."
tl;dr: T_T

Damn this sucks bad
