I don't see why any foreign team would want him after this. And not sure how many korean teams will be jumping to get him either (but that has more to do with him being mediocre by korean standards)

A) Maybe the lower tier ones might have an issue but if any bigger names wanted to give a shot to him I doubt that they would have any issue with this guy.

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.

I believe he moved when he signed with x6. At least that was the impression I got from his introduction video.

Ok I apologize, for some reason I thought sleep was in code S at some point, which is why it was so hard for me to see him staying with checksix long term, since I can't see them offering the same kind of salary as TL or EG or the other big foreign teams that can afford to keep code S players around.


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).

This. 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 remember him being on IM and doing well earlier on. people are saying he was on slayers at one point? also it always felt weird seeing him on the roster. maybe he should publicly communicate what his goals are.

Too bad about his attitude. Good luck to sleep for finding a new team and good luck to x6 for finding new players who are hopefully better team players

hmm, losing your ace player always sucks, but i think that with Suppy's emergence as well as xSix's newest recruit Seohoyen (how the hell do you spell that guys name?) I think they should be fine.

I hope he can find a better team that suits his skill level more appropriately. No offence, but xSix as an overall roster is far below Sleep's level. I hope at least a Korean team or a decent-good foreign team picks him up.

I think it's funny people say xSix is overall far below Sleep's caliber when they always forget that he got 3-2'd by Mystik at a SoCal LAN for $1000. 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's successes 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.
