Quotes:
    Eve reiterates that she does not want be known as the team's mascot but wants to be taken as a serious Pro Gamer.

    Supervisor IntoTheRain stated that "I am not expecting AZUBU to become a strong team right off the bat. Just like AZUBU'S LoL teams, Blaze and Frost, we are going to work Really hard and give everything we've got so that we can gradually become the world's best SC2 team."

Ending Comment:
AZUBU will announce One more player in addition to the eight they currently have as well as their future SC2 plans

ManZenith involved into ManZubu.

Cool depth pick-ups from Azubu. Genius, when motivated, can be one of the best players in the world, and I think San and TOP can return back to at least mid-Code A/fringe Code S if they return to a good team environment. Azubu has a lot of money and already have the two most popular/successful LoL teams in Korea.

I expect them to open their wallet with Supernova and Polt both available and them needing to add to their Terran roster.

Polt I don't think they'd get, because he wants to focus on America. SuperNova maybe, but not right away for sure, since he free agent'd today.

Polt goes to A&M, lives with viOLet, and everyone (especially Fionn) is happy.

I would write an urban spaghetti western about Violet and Polt as Korean cowboys riding horses around Texas A&M hunting for girls.

They're looking to build a competitive GSTL team though, aren't they? I doubt they'd pick up someone studying abroad at this phase, regardless of their skill.

It's not really a hunt if the girls all line up and wait for their turn. More like a "Line em up" thing.

Adding Polt would give them a foreign presence. They will more than likely have enough players to play in GSTL and can use Violet/Polt as heavy hitters who come over for big matches. Azubu is a German company and have offices outside of Korea. They are going to enter GSTL, but I think they want a global presence as well. One reason why Violet was their first pick up.

Hoooooooly crap, that's quite a few of "TOP" players.

If you know what I mean.
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

Expected this, and I'm happy these teamless players finally found a stable home. TOP/Genius can return to Code S form if they are in good environments, and San shows glimpses of brilliance every once in a while. I think SuperNoVa will fill in the Terran, with Polt as a potential candidate as well.
