Soon might be a bit away. They could potentially be getting in the coach to help them do that so he can pick a "team" that he thinks he can work well with and make it more a start up ala SlayerS early-2011. I wouldn't mind seeing that.

Of course could just be pipe dreams. Might be only one or two extra people. I doubt it's none.

Kinda weird to get a coach with no SC2 experience though, so he's probably not going to be a gameplay coach. More likely he's going to be a practice/mentality/experience kinda coach, and maybe you're right, as a scout for talent.

IntoTheRainbow

So many rains to keep track of...

I'm really interested to see how Azubu's SC2 team develops in the near future with this pickup.

I guess he could have changed races, but mentioning his season 1 finals vs Fruitdealer would have basically been obligatory, if it was him.


and was at his best around 2000~2001


....there was this game...

...which was why I mentioned...he could have changed races (from BW to SC2, if it was ITRainbow). I'm merely pointing out the similarity of the names, and I find it curious that no distinction was made. One of the things I've heard most about Rainbow was that he was "old school" BW, so how am I supposed to know if that meant 2001 or 2005 or whatever.


IntoTheRainbow aka HopeTorture aka ST_Rainbow was mentored by IntoTheRain in BW.


Yep, the the similarity rises from the fact that they were in a clan called IntoThe. There's an interview with him from 2005 where IntoTheRain talks about how he thought he got the worst name (they were given a list of names to chose from.) He said he thought IntoTheAuir was the best name.

If anyone wants to watch some of his games, and laugh at how hilarious he looked back then, Pucca's Relive Series is casting the 2001 CocaCola OSL. And yes, this is back when they wore the space suits and had terrible hair. It's absolutely amazing to watch how different everything was back then.

Azubu is investing quite heavily into esports. Two korean LoL teams, Violet, sponsoring and international CSL, and now this all in the last few months. I wonder what prompted this direction?
Best of luck to them

Edit: And for the record, I did figure it out, I was mostly just enjoying the curiosity of such similar names.


intotherain is the reason intotherainbow( hopetorture/st_rainbow) was good in bw. they were both good afaik

Well this should be a big sign of them wanting to add more players to there roster. Violet might get surounded in a warm bed of awsome players soon.

Azubu is a German-owned gaming network. I'm not saying they've got a ton of money but I wouldn't be surprised if they did have a reasonable purse.
