So who is going to play for EG if it is them? If they commit to Proleague the players will have to be in Korea for 4-5 months depending on the length of the season.

Puma
JYP
Byul??
HuK
Maybe ThorzaIn? ( hopefully, thorzain. shit that would be awesome )
who else?

I doubt it. FXO is a korean team. I doubt FXO is going to do the NA team, maybe the Euro but even then I doubt it.

I don't see kespa saying "A foreign team" and then FXO the korean team ends up playing in it. I could be wrong, just don't feel like it'll be FXO.
When I think of something else, something will go here

I don't see how EG could think this would be a good idea. They ship their players all over the world every week, and proleague means they have to be in korea once a week.

I didn't know Demuslim ever went to KR for an extended period of time, that would be a first I think? Not saying It's out of the question.

Maybe a Chinese team? They have some money, and culture and travel differences are much smaller, not much homesick issue. They don't fly around the globe all year. And it is a very good chance to attract big money in Chinese market for OGN and KeSPA. And they have previous cooperation with Chinese on OSL Shanghai Finals.

Hard part is that right now they don't have very good players to put up a real fight.

Yeah, but didn't he want to go some time ago (no clue when, really) and then it fell through somehow? Anyway, it'd be for fucking Proleague, anyone who would have at least a small chance at playing time (aka everyone but Incontrol, Machine and LZ) should be pumped and ready to go, except for Stephano, he probably wouldn't give a fuck and only go to Korea if EG ordered him to or for training reasons with a few bothersome Proleague games in between.

I don't know if IdrA would really want to go, but for everyone who loved BW, playing in Proleague once should be a dream come true, so I could imagine him going there, too, for at least the first couple of matches, especially if EG wants to put all their marketing and star power behind the move.

any of these foreign teams would be the new ACE lol, there's nothing that can beat a KeSPA team in terms of preparation. Also, I hope SC2 PL doesn't go the same way SF2 PL did, but I'm not optimistic at all.

FXO would dominate Proleague.

EG/Fnatic would probably be Ace-level. EG could probably do pretty decently if they all moved to Korea and were there for four months straight, but seeing as everyone on EG is always traveling to foreign events, they'd probably get smashed.

Agreed. If EG committed themselves there then I can see them honestly competing. Most likely people will be in and out and what not so maybe not =S

I think it would be cool if EG decided to dedicate four months to having ALL of there players in Korea and only sending 1 player to each big foreign event. EX: HuK to MLG, Puma to NASL, etc etc etc how ever they want to split it up.

Probably won't happen but it would be cool.

I have extreme doubts about that assessment, but I can't say for certain I guess. As far as I can tell, GSTL has only been All-Kill format, eSF Teams are much more geared towards individual leagues, and KeSPA teams are completely dedicated to preparing for PL (multiple coaches, limited individual league participation, totally new maps). With all of these factors, and now that KeSPA players are caught up in terms of average skill, I can't imagine any newcomer team doing particularly well.

It would be like a marvel/DC crossover comic :D.
