Maybe his contract ran out and he decided to not renew it. Or maybe he just wants to avoid the commitment to lots of practice and pick up what scraps he can from GSL while cutting out practice.

your assuming he is on a contract. and genius hasn't been one to commit to practice as he has said he practices 10 games a day. And he doesn't live in the MVP house.

If Genius joins EG, he'll be an Evil Genius. "And in the top left corner, we have Evil Genius' Genius!"

ok I'll go on

"and in the top left, his opponent, MvPMvp!"
Let a man play chess, and tell him that every pawn is his friend. Let him think both bishops holy. Let him remember happy days in the shadows of his castles. Let him love his queen. Watch him lose them all.

Very nice showing today in the GSL Code S. Hopefully a little more icing on the cake to some of the teams interested in signing him.

I doubt he needed it. I couldn't imagine him leaving mvp without already being on a team. He just wont say which one until he is out of the GSL for common courtesies sake.

I think he would move to another Korean team, even under complexity Genius did not travel much, so it seems like he really wanted to focus on Korean competition.

And he isnt wearing any team jersey just now, if it was a foreign team, he would have worn a team jersey today and not that GSL gom tv shirt... Damn, as a Genius fan this is really excruciating.

This thing about Koreans getting worse on foreign teams is a bit silly, how many players are consistently in code s top 8 every season? The answer is MvP and only MvP. It is just that koreans in foreign teams have such a spotlight on them that we take notice whenever they lose. Puma is a great example, he is still one of the most successful Sc2 gamers so far. He has won a IEM and a nasl under EG, as well as a number of other good results. JYP was never a top 5 toss, not before EG and not now.

Hero, Violet and also MC are all doing really good outside of a korean team as well.

Maybe. Though it would be sick, I can't see EG passing up trying to go after Stephano in August. So signing 2 BIG players back to back? Ahhh. Unless EGs pockets are really that BIG.

From todays winner interviews;

Why did you leave MVP?

I feel that Coach Choi’s style didn’t mesh well with me. I left the team after long consideration. The coach’s and my personalities clashed a little bit too much. It’s not that I had a particular problem within the team that made me leave.[

When did you decide to leave the team?

I’ve actually been thinking about leaving for a long time. However, every time I tried to, the coach persuaded me out of it but this time, that wasn’t possible and the decision was made.

What plans do you have for the future?

For now, I will focus on GSL and then work on finding a team to join. I think I’ll try to find a foreign team.

I think bankroll wise mouz is out of the question. There are many more foreign teams that have more cash and willing to spend it on genius I bet.
