It may be as simple as TL doesn't want more than 9 players right now, so they turned him down.

Perhaps they don't want to or cannot spend the money for salary for an additional player.

They're "slackers" if that's what you want to call them. But someone like NonY is insanely popular.

The way I see it, Liquid is trying to maintain their image of being a 'family', which is why they wouldn't pick up someone like Genius. He has an interesting personality, but not one that would fit too well into Liquid methinks.

Seems like a lot of Koreans are interested in joining Team Liquid. It's a pretty prestigious team these days I have to say.
If they had the money/if it would be profitable, they would've auto-picked up SuperNova and Genius.

Haypro lives in Korea so I doubt he slacks.

So does Genius
I don't follow your logic


Haypro voluntarily moved there. He is in a different culture and in a practice house which shows to me that he is dedicated to practicing and improving. Meanwhile Genuis lived and grew up in Korea while living outside of the practice house.

Well, Genius is a genius and Haypro is.............. yeah

If Genius can stay at mid Code Sish level while barely practicing, imagine what he could do with some more motivation.

Liquid is, first and foremost, a foreign team. Could you imagine the public outcry if they started going the way of Fnatic or FXO? People would be getting banned left and right. They have their Korean trio, and that is really all they need.

Similarly, I don't really see EG making a big move for him either. The personality kind of fits and foreigners either love him or hate him... but EG has JYP to fit their Korean Protoss needs and they seem to be happy with him.

Please pick up Genius Team Liquid!!! I cannot stress how amazing this would be. I know it may not be financially viable what with TSL4 coming up and having 9 players already on the team but this is certainly something worth sacrificing for.

Once I have a goal, I work hard to achieve it. My goal this time is to show games that I can be proud of. So I'm thinking that even if I lose to KeSPA players, I will go down in style.


Hell yes. <3 Parting

was hoping to do an all-kill as the starting player but MMA will have that honour (T/N: hmm... the name is definitely MMA). If I do get sent out, I will finish up nicely.


hmmmmmmmmmm...what? thats very interesting

I think Genius would have been good for TL but I can understand wanting to stay a foreign team... it would be 6 foreigners and 4 koreans then and thats starting to get pretty korean
