Less and less SC2 KR pro teams


It's a lot healthier for the scene to have a smaller number of really well sponsored teams like we have now than a larger number of mostly broke as shit teams like we had a year ago.

Right now Mvp, Slayers, FXO, IM, Fnatic, Prime and Startale all appear to be in a really good spot financially. While TSL and NSHS seem to be keeping afloat if nothing else.

This time last year the only teams with any money at all were FXO and Slayers so this is a vast improvement.

Plus when they all move over to playing pro league I expect more sponsors to come in and teams in general to become more stable. It's inevitable that mergers will happen when the Kespa teams come in because 17 teams is too many. 10 is a nice number to have imo.

TSL isn't just keeping afloat. They have always been in a good spot financially. They are one of the few teams that sends their players overseas without a foreign partnership.


They send Polt out a lot yes. But how do you know Polt isn't paying his own way (he's a rich guy post Super Tournament). Almost all the times their other players have gone to tournaments it's been on the tournaments dollar.

Coz coach lee is a even richer guy who owns several cyber cafes


The fact that Coach Lee is rich doesn't necessarily mean that he actually sends his players to foreign events though. I do think that he does, because Polt would not have joined TSL without that incentive.

TSL just moved into a bigger house and out of all the Korean teams, probably send the most players to foreign tournaments with MvP and probably now Startale with their Red Bull sponsorship.

Obviously the team most likely to be in financial trouble would be HoSeo. Never send players to tournaments and are sponsored by a technical college. For all we know they might be perfectly fine in Korea and just don't have the extra funds to send players to foreign tournaments, but they would be the most likely out of the teams in Korea.

Hopefully Nada's team can prosper.

Nice zerg pickups for Startale, should make them even more formidable next GSTL. That was their main weakness with just Curious around.

Yes, the reason I used merge was because that's what the article used.

The deal with Millennium is like the SlayerS-EG deal. They don't pay for players to travel abroad. It just gives them a training facility in Korea and a chance to play in GSTL.

Looks like TREME will have to look for a new ID. Hopefully it isn't STupid or STartale.
