Dam Polt left Seoul University to study abroad.


he didn't leave it lol. most universities allow you to take 4 semesters off, or accept semesters/courses from other universities if you pay/get a scholarship for an abroad semester.
endure. in enduring, grow strong.

Interview with Polt

About 7 hours ago an article on Polt's motivations to leaving TSL was made. If someone wants a translation, I can do it, but it doesn't really say anything new.

Nah, he took a pretty long break from university in 2012.

Yeah, but I don't know if TL wants to pick players up that aren't going to be able to play in proleague.

TSL is dead imho with this move =( Coach lee said previously he only continued TSL because a promise he made to Polt. I've also heard Symbol/Hyun having talks with foreign teams RIP TSL


Sounds pretty dubious, if it was from more sources I could believe it, but purely desRow's words against nothing is fairly weak. HyuN and Symbol have no real reason to leave TSL, and they all seem to like Coach Lee and Kim. Polt has more motivations and reasons to leave, while HyuN and Symbol like to stay in Korea and don't study in university. If they do leave, TSL is dead again x_x

I'm good friends with Coach Lee and I know for a fact he is going to hopefully try to keep TSL going. He has a lot of passion and a loy of love for his players. I know even recently they have had some talks with possible sponsors.

is TSL does end op disbanding, then it would come as a huge shock to me, since he seemd so determined to keep it going.

Sucks but it's life man. Players come and go, Veterinary school is very hard to get into so Polt needs to take this opportunity when he can. TSL looked dead once and they came back stronger than ever. Doubt TSL is gonna because a single player leaves, don't worry :D

From interviews with Coach Lee, TSL is his passion project and life, its his child in every way possible. He would rather not create another partnership with another team than change the name TSL. Polt is a different case, I think there was always the possibility of Polt leaving, even to me, and when Polt joined, he acted more like a temporary stability for the team. Coach Lee knew Polt would leave, and that is why he left in amicable terms. HyuN and Symbol are now the core of TSL, and I doubt Coach Lee would ever drop them.

Guys. This is so obvious, i can't believe you missed it.

Polt took bioengineering in uni, is amazing at Starcraft, and is now studying veterinary medicine.

CLEARLY he has been sent back in time to create the Zerg here on planet Earth.

Like, DUH.

I'm also a friend of Coach Lee and he is definitely passionate about keeping TSL alive but he has mentioned in the past that a lot of his motivation was because of a promise he made to Polt.

I don't believe it will be EG.
Polt is not planning to be full time pro. EG needs full time pros which will be streaming and going to as many tournaments as possible. Polt is not going to give them this as he is going to study.

I rather believe that it may be Azubu or Liquid.


Suppy is still a part time student tho.

full time student!
