Sleep was for sure their best player, but for NA standards Check6 still remains a strong team without him. They were able to beat ItsGosu most recently without using Sleep, and placed quite high in previous ESEA seasons without him. This hurts no doubt, but they should still be considered a strong team.

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.

I agree with you that the rest of CheckSix should start giving people a reason to recognize us. However, if MLG is not considered a major LAN, I don't know what is. Most of the players on CheckSix are full-time students and the only LAN they are able to attend is the occasional MLG or local LAN, whereas Sleep was able to attend a ton of events. A lot of CheckSix players did very well at the recent MLG and I'm saying that it's unfair to immediately say "everyone else on xSix is FAR below Sleep's caliber." Just my 2 cents.

Suppy, Mystik, Mkengyn, and Panther are all strong players. Mercy is getting back in shape too and will really help bolster their lineup.

honestly, i think this helped both sides- Sleep will now be forced to work hard and practice better, and x6 can now focus on their up and coming lineup

Well that's going to hurt Check-Six a bit. Not going to tear them down, of course, but it does sting.
As for Sleep, he's probably already got another offer that is either waiting for him or in the process of being emailed to him. Sleep is a good Korean player, and good Korean players get picked up (usually).

After hearing his responses at the GESL when asked about how it's going on x6 and how he's getting along with everyone, I'm honestly not surprised by this. It was pretty obvious his role on the team was just being a mercenary.

No idea whats happening but it looks like a huge loss for x6 imo. I hope he finds a new team very soon.

Phew thank God for this information, I have been carefully following this for the past few weeks. To be honest this was what I expected, but you can never be sure. I can finally sleep at night.

Don't forget to keep us posted about Seong Han Kim and his endeavors in finding teams and/or clans.

we're catching up fast and hopefully we will see NA teams to be able to hold their own without relying on foreign talent in the near future, gl to you sleep.

Sleep isn't a GSL quality player.

Why the salt?

He isn't, it's just a statement of fact.
