Interesting! Glad to see he's not retiring as he is one of my favourite terran players. Hope he can find a nice new team to play with.
Oh, the usual. I bowl. Drive around. The occasional acid flashback.

EG sounds like a good fit to me, they sign big players and then allow them to slack off and not work as hard as they did to get to where they are (Ex. Huk and Stephano who both said in recent interviews that they don't care for practicing or playing much at all anymore, if i was signing the EG checks i'd be more than a little peeved...lol)

He could sign a contract with EG to pay for his schooling and never even really have to try to win or care about SC2 ever again, sounds like a win win.

EG probably could afford Polt, but they're focused on Proleague. Polt could probably come over every so often and stay a week or two to play in some games, but he wouldn't be able to live in the team house in America or Korea.

Azubu or Liquid would be the best fits. Axiom would be nice as well, but they're focused on being a Korean team and having a member living off alone in America would probably not be the best thing since they want to have enough players to be in the GSTL. If Polt went to Azubu, he could just become Violet's bro and do what he does: win lots of foreign tournaments, go to Korea once and a while, and become American.

Polt to EG or TL. Who's with me ?


Definitely EG. It looks like he has many connections there to get on the gosu gaming site (which was pretty much started by EG): http://gosucoaching.com/users/tslpolt


Polt (not confirmed) is going to study in Texas, so that means he'd be living near Violet. Connection.
Polt is good friends with Taeja. Connection.

Polt has connections with all the probable suitors.



i thought violet moved back to korea since azubu wants to participate in the GSTL?
eh?

I doubt its Azubu, because it looks like they will focus more heavily on the Korean scene now. I also don't think its Liquid as Polt doesn't really fit in to their philosophy of recruiting rising players with potential. EG maybe, but probably not because they would rather pick a player that will stay in Korea for SPL.

I think it could be a team like SK or a foreign team that will allow them to study and support him financially. I think it might be a team like Axiom to be honest.

Firstly, that's not GosuGamers, that is GosuCoaching (completely different and not really affiliated with any teams, just players and run by community members like Xeris). Polt's been on that site for a very long time (A year according to the site.). What does that site have to do with EG other than showing a few EG players for coaching? It is just a coaching site that advertises coaches that has been in the community for a very long time. Plus if we use your logic he could be going to ROOT because Catz, Drewbie and TT1 are on that site too, or even TL because of Sheth and Ret. Not to mention that site appears to be all but abandoned since the last news update is from two weeks shy of a year ago and there is almost no activity on it other than spambots in the player guestbooks.

These were my initial thoughts, EG is concentrating on their PL team, so it doesn't seem likely they would pick up a player who just left Korea.

A very strong consistent player, it will definitely be interesting to see where he ends up during his time in North America.

I think it's Abuzu. There is no way Axiom is gonna have enough money for Polt at the moment. It also could be Liquid, but not very likely since they already got one superstar terran. Any other team wouldn't fit for him except maybe Fnatic would be the wildcard choice.

Polt is in my opinion the most valuable terran of all time of sc2. Its not bias or fanboyism cause im not this kind of guy.
I dont belong to any kind of fan club or so, and i play all 3races.
BUT, i watched a lot of polt stream, and i think (and im not the only one) hes the by far the most smart terran player i ever seen. I use a lot of his replays to coach my noob friends and also to improve my skill.
Picking him up is a big deal, especially because of his knowledge and his amazing understanding of the race. This is a big deal cause he can also provide a very good council to other terran players.
To me, the ideal team for him would be SKTT1 because of its obvious terran history, but thats a little bit bias i got to admit. Otherwise, good team would be Empire, cause there is a lot af very talented terrran who would be better with polt's advices and knowledge. And good europeean terrans is something i want more.
