B) SlayerS still seemed to like him after they left due to tweets posted from when Dragon was picked up by Millennium so I'm more then sure Korean teams are fine with him as well. C) Maybe mediocre by Korean standards but still better then many currently getting chances on their teams lol. Yeah in terms of pure skill he's definitely on the level of the best foreigners like Grubby, Ret, Socke, Sheth. | ||

At least that was the impression I got from his introduction video.

Technically Sleep did play in an Open Season against Maka (I just remember all the dumb puns about alarm clocks and all). I could have sworn he played some GSTL games too, but I can't find any of him so I guess I just remember seeing his face in the roster line-ups (which at least means he was an A-teamer, since Slayers has a B-team, not sure if IM does or not though). | ||

I think he may have overvalued himself when his contract was running out and he may have priced himself out of a solid team that is x6. Although he is a good player, he does have the draw that other players have on the bigger foreign teams. Perhaps heading back to korea? | ||

Yeah but the lower tier ones will be more desperate to get a player as good as him, I'm not sure a top foreign team would want him now. | ||

I placed the same as him at MLG, playing WAY more players than he did. It's only a little infuriating when you downplay the rest of the team just because the star player is gone. No offense but one MLG open bracket where the quality of players vary so much doesn`t help prove your point when it comes to placing. If xSix is as close in terms of skill as you say we should see the results of that in major LANs. Finding isolated incidences where he doesn`t do well mean anything as you can do that with many top players. Rather than getting all angry people don`t recognize the other players of the team give them a real reason to. | ||
