It's like if MVP or NesTea left IM. It just isn't right :'( Personally, i still want MVP to join team Mvp. Wasn't there a history of MMA being the star of the team but not really part of the team on a personal level, i.e. his teammates don't really like him that much? Or am i confusing him with someone else? | ||

Why should foreign teams pick up bad foreigners and build them up when there are already better players? How is that fair to the players that practice harder and are better at the game? No Korean thinks that, but they *know* most foreign teams would want them. Because, you know, they're better than foreigners. by building up foreigners I meant foreigners who are working hard (maybe even harder) than certain korean players Your last point makes no sense tbh, surely "knowing" requires them to think, anyways I just think that is is douchey that some korean players just assume that a foreign team would want them, it's not to say that this is right or wrong just that it comes across as douchey | ||

Alicia has been on the team since the early days, as is Ryung, who had been with the team since the first GSTLs. Puzzle was acquired late-summer 2011 from Zenex. Crank is often at GSL supporting his teammates, while Ryung and Alicia are not. Crank was also on SKT1. | ||

Stephano could take a GSL if he worked as hard as the most dedicated koreans.... There are talented koreans and koreans who get results because of insane preparation. Some foreigners have talent (Stephano is the best example), but lack some work (I'm not saying they don't work at all, don't misinterpret ^^), exception is Naniwa... It's visible in how Koreans dominate the scene, though some foreigners still manage to get some tournaments, but only foreign ones. GSL is still Korean only (with never more than 3-4 exception, 1 in code S). | ||

Foreign or not has nothing to do with it, again. Let's drop your Korean bashing and get back to speculations about MMA. MMA is going to stay at SlayerS imo. He is too valuable to be dropped. Still one of the best Terrans in the world. His slump might have to do a lot with -all- terrans having a hard time currently. | ||
