I think Genius said he wanted a foreign team instead.

When will the KESPA teams start picking up players? Maybe team8 or another team has a slot open for a top notch sc2 toss players. They should be attractive to the GOM TV players as they provide a better salary.

They arent allowed to for about a year. Would be pretty unfair.

Right now i can't find the exact article in which it was stated but there is an official agreement that ESF players can't currently be acquired by Kespa times for some time.

Does it really make any difference? It's not like most SC2 teams will be able in 1 year to make up for the money those top SC1 teams have been making in all those BW years.

They'll probably end up acquiring all the current top players that they feel are worth it the second they decide to.

Teamliquid needs another protoss after Tyler has been slumping!


It's funny how you say that just when he performed well in WCS.

A couple of wins and a years slump is forgotten?
Anyways, TL is about more then just results, so I am not that worried about Tyler.


How can you call it a slump? In SC2 his results have been pretty consistent. Only if you consider his status in BW can you consider it a slump.

He did pretty well at the 2010 MLGs and after that he accomplished nothing for a whole year and a half. I would consider that a slump.

I don't like InCa but he's not bad enough to switch to LoL

I do love the ignorance your comment has. You're inferring you have to be bad at sc2 inorder to play LoL well let's see last I checked Fruitdealer is now in the LoL scene kinda and he is a GSL winner and such. Comments such as these only make you look like an ignorant child/elitest thinking that one game takes so significantly less skill that it's not worth even mentioning in the same category as your game which in fact it is. In both size of audience and skill seeing as how both games take a significant amount of it.

Fruitdealer became irrelevent in the SC2 scene pretty quickly after winning the very first GSL.

Yeah... You've picked a pretty bad example. It would be quite easy for one to say Fruitdealer's lack of success as the increase in SC2 professional skill level led him to seek an easier path in a different game (LoL)... Not that I'm saying that, but your example makes it incredibly easy for someone to.

Overshadowed by DRG? You realize that Genius was runner up Code S finals GSL Season 1 (this past feb)
This was during DRG's prime and Genius was right there. There was no jealousy. They rose up together. MVP vs MVP finals
Playoffs? You're talking about playoffs?

This might possibly be true to some extent. DRG reported that Genius left the team house soon after the finals and wouldn't talk to him for most of season 2. It's sad.
moo...for DRG

Im not so sure about this. Im not aware of their bankroll compared to all other teams but I have noticed that a lot of pros that have been changing teams are electing for foreign teams. In some cases it could be money or just more foreign tourneys but in some cases (i.e. Violet) it had to due with the difference in lifestyle.

It will be interesting to see if pro players elect to go to KESPA teams when they can just stay on their current korean sc2 team that has a tough training regiment but not like the KESPA teams. Or if the current trend of Korean pros moving to foreign teams will continue.
Get the hell outta here Der Beek, your'e ruining my moment.
