Wasn't there a movement for KeSPA and GSL not to change players. Does that not apply to coaches?

Bisu has his Golden Badge and old GSL titles. screw the OSL 
(Kidding but OSL isn't his thing)
It's good to have Boxer back though. maybe when oov comes back from military it'll be a great reunion.

First MMA, now BoxeR... what has become of SlayerS?

I'll fight totally fight you for that. Because Bisu is, like totally hawt.
But yeah T1 fans usually have to suffer (mostly) good-hearted ribbing from the other teams because some of our players are a little hit and miss (except when it isn't good-hearted.) Also Bisu created as many anti-fans as fans. I see your CJ symbol...

I'm personally super stoked on this announcement. Slayers players won't benefit from his coaching as much as the recently transitiond SKT terrans. Time to beef up the competition. Fantasy is incoming.
Also, as a T1 fan, I want to add that we get some shit for being a fan of the corporate giant, the team with an immense pocket. It's no doubt that there was a serious cash exchange to bring Boxer back to the team as they are struggling to catch up to the GSL players. But I don't care 
Living in Incheon our local baseball team is also funded by SK. Go Wyverns?

More like reminding people of said facts, usually in very a untimely and obnoxious manner.

Cezanne, ex oGs player/coach to Team 8 Ryu Won, ex SlayerS coach to Woonjin Stars
Clide, ex SlayerS player to KT Rolster as a coach (this one was the most suspect one imo, but SlayerS seemed happy for him)
and now BoxeR to SKT1
I don't remember exactly when Ryu Won joined Woonjin, but they were the best team in the first round of proleague. When Cezanne joined Team 8 for the second round they went from the 7th place team to the best, and I don't know if you've seen Jaedong play lately, but he's improving at an incredible rate.
I think it won't be long before the 3 teams that aren't Ace pick up a GSL player or coach to coach their team. ACE I don't know, they're not recruiting anymore but it would be amazing if they made an exception and got July or Nada to coach their team.

i think this is it
timing of him going to Kespa team right after Kespa-GOM agreement is perfect, and will surely bring interest to Kespa teams abroad, and to sc2 at home.
i'm only affraid of Slayers eventually dying because of the better good

Wait wait, so Jessica and Boxer are competing coaches O.o

Exactly, when Flash or Jaedong loses a match it's usally "Oh the other guy played really well" or "He exploited Flash/Jaedong really well!" but when Bisu loses it's usually "LOL BISU SUCKS"

He pretty much built both teams

People are just jealous of bisu's good looks.

You guys haven't seen Flash fanboys before the Hybrid league, worse then Bisu fans by quite a margin.

Boxer leaving on the heels of some very serious player issues at SlayerS points towards disagreements between him and Jessica, very likely over MMA. I also wouldn't be surprised if the two of them were either on the rocks or finished.
I predict slayers disbands, and soon.

I seriously hope that MMA and Ryung can eventually be in the same team as Fantasy with Oov and Boxer. It'd be the story of Boxer and his many sons all fighting for the name SKT. It'd be like the best sitcom ever.

Well to be fair, he did kinda earn his reputation with his 15-game win streak.
