So bittersweet, leaving one team you created from nothing to coach another you created...

As explained earlier in the thread, SKT too was a team that Boxer created, so it really isn't much of a surprise to see him going to coach for them.

After reading that interview, I feel good for Boxer. Sounds like he's really happy to be back home again and concentrating on what he enjoys best.

From what we have seen so far that sounds about right.

The environment around a team like SKT1 is also soooo professional. Did you guys see the "office/practice facility" on Old Boy when Nal_Ra was there? Just so big and clean. No wonder he wanted to go back to that if he was gonna coach. And the money they have...

But isn't this setup with an office where staff and players spend their days working and then they have rooms/appartment like on another floor in the same building pretty much the standard layout for KeSPA teams? The only living team I can recall not having this is CJ and now Team 8? Meanwhile most non-KeSPA teams are all living together in this tiny place where they have like 10-13 players in the living room like it's some kind of LAN party and then they have like 4 bunk beds on 2 rooms. The living conditions are worlds apart.

That's mainly due to the fact at the start of SC2 Kespa teams were still making much, much more money from sponsorships so could afford the amazing practice houses that they have now. SlayerS had some sponsors but nothing as huge as what SKT did.

I'm happy that Boxer is going to help SKT with StarCraft 2 as AFAIK (not been following PL) they've been doing pretty badly, so any help is going to be awesome. Also if Jessica said he should go and do this, I hope that means their relationship is fine because they really are an awesome couple of people and I really want both teams to be successful.

Infact, both teams are going to benefit from Boxer as he'll be making much more money so he might be able to help SlayerS more financially and get a better house for them.
