All players have resigned with their original team.




First phase of Free Agency is over

Jaehoon has failed to negotiate a new contract with Team 8, and apparently is planning to retire if he can't receive a contract of his liking in the next couple of weeks or so (which I'll be honest, will probably not happen).

RorO, hyvaa and ZerO agreed to new contracts with their current teams.





Tomorrow (7th September) will mark the beginning of the Free Agency period for this year.

Eligible Free Agents this season are (Z)ZerO (Woongjin), (Z)hyvaa (STX), (Z)RorO (Samsung) and (P)Jaehoon (Team 8).

The process is as follows;
- The player's current team will have the first right to offer a contract, if negotiations break down, another team may provide an offer of better value.

From 9/7 to 9/10 begins the contract offer period from the players original team. If there is no contract accepted during this time, other teams are allowed to offer a contract to the player (from 9/11 to 9/20). If in this period there is once again no contract offer/acceptance of contract, the player will once again renegotiate with their original team (9/21 to 9/24).

T/N: The wording of the final paragraph had really formal language which was somewhat difficult to grasp, so if a native Korean speaker could correct me on it, it would be appreciated.

Nice! Is there a limitation to who can participate in this Free Agency negotiation? Is it only intra-Kespa or will we see ESF teams possibly bid for them?

Does anyone know if eSF teams are allowed to make an offer on the same level as kespa teams ?

EDIT: Oh yeah the trade lock thing, I forgot about that. Thanks.

It would be nice to see some of them go to a esF team but I really doubt any of them other than Jaehoon could be dropped. Roro and Zero are both really good zergs with the former being a top 10 SC2 Zerg.

ESF teams can barely offer their players contracts money, I don't see how they can afford these guys unless they make very low salary. ~$15k.

Why is RoRo'S contract already running out? He just joined Khan! Should have given him a longer contract lol, he can demand quite a raise.

no player transfers until october 2013 (between ESF and KeSPA-teams that is). This is just between the KeSPA teams.

Trade lock dude.

On the other hand, some big dawgs are available wow. ZerO and RorO. Don't know about ZerO but RorO must be drooling some mouths. Jaehoon and hyvaa have been regular A-teamers too, especially hyvaa has been rising recently.

can the players choose where they want to go?

example : both teams offered the same contract, can the players switch teams?

I see none of these players moving, except mayyyybe hyvaa.
ZerO is like the face of Stars, they aren't gonna let him go.
RorO has been really good since he moved to KHAN, especially at SC2, they will want to keep him around.
Jaehoon, well, its jaehoon bitches, he'll stay around and do what he does.
hyvaa is mediocre, always has been really, but he's a stable mainstay at STX so in all likelihood I would guess he'll get a new contract with very similar pay to before and he'll take it, I don't see other teams being particularly keen on picking him up

Then they forget everything and relearn from Hyuk and become SKT zergs.
