Poor Genius, even the foreign teams are rejecting him. Oh well, his reputation for moving teams and his inconsistent practice routines are his downfall.

Also wtf, MMA at GSTL finals? This MMA-thing is getting even more confusing by the day.

Liquid could use a second top notch Protoss imo, especially considering the GSTL...

NEX/ZeNEX -> NsP (more of a clan than a team as he didn't join NSH) -> MvP -> Teamless

So technically it'd be NEX/ZeNEX -> No team -> MvP -> No team

Genius is such a boss. I can't believe any foreign team would refuse him... In GSL results he is the biggest Korean so far to want to join a foreign team. Then he also has a personality that he'll easily gain a ton of popularity with. Makes no sense to me unless he was asking for some ridiculous amount.


The President laughs heartily at this statement.

And Liquid rejecting Genius =(

Squirtle is seriously f*cking attractive, he's like a more badass version of MKP


Indeed, Squirtle's good looks are very underrated on TL I feel. His girlfriend is cute though so I think Koreans know that he is good looking. =P

You got a seed for WCS but you have to go through the qualifiers for WCG

No one told me about the WCS seed. (T/N: wtf, get your act together WCS) I only learned about the WCG qualifiers yesterday after reading another player's interview.


He said "No one told me about the WCG qualifiers." Not WCS.

I got the impression that the reason he didnt want to continue staying at ZeNEX when NEX and Zenith merged was because he didn't really like the practice environment. And even at MVP, I think towards the end of his stay (and pretty much during his finals run) he wasn't even staying at the MVP house anymore.

yeah, TiG fixed it up. Before, the first one was still written as WCG but they mentioned seeds (Genius only has seed for WCS like the question says) and the next sentence made it seem like Genius was talking about WCS. Now they changed it so that it seems like Genius only talked about WCG so I guess I'll match that but I still think the first statement was in regard to WCS.

MMA as a starting player for SlayerS-EG? What the hell? But tbh, I'm glad he is at least allowed to play.

I for one am happy TL did not pick him up for what reason it is we can guess all day. For me he does not fit the profile of a player that get's picked up and get's better and better under liquids wings.

Best of luck finding a team Genius, but you are right most spots have been taken by (lesser result) koreans.

Yes, because Taeja was so bad when he joined Liquid

I find it hilarious Genius describes his proposal as 'not even that audacious', the guy always gives such funny interviews. The line about not even needing to practice vs Sniper is pure gold after all the interviews between him and DRG in Season 1.

I don't know why a foreign team would reject a GSL finalist. Perhaps he demanded too much ?

Genius has the potential to become a fan favorite though. Anyway, I hope he gets a team soon.

What? Liquid turned down Genius yet they keep guys who haven't shown any substantial results in more than a year? Strange, but I guess Genius just asked for too much. Still, the guy has talent, and a very outgoing personality.

And of course, it is great to hear that MMA is the starter for the GSTL finals. Hopefully this means the friction is now behind them.

Liquid is more of a "family" and I can't imagine them picking up anyone not named SuperNoVa at least until after they sign SuperNoVa.

I don't think they signed Taeja because he was "family", they signed him for raw talent. :p

but like, in liquid rising, they want players they can develop
genius is well developed and possibly has already peaked.
