Thorzain goes up and down pretty hard. That show match was during one of Thorzain's slumps. He's got about as much chance of taking Thorzain in his current form as I do.

Still, best of luck.

Well hopefully now that he has achieved his 'dream' of joining a Korean team, he may stay put for a while and live up to his potential

wow, great for major and great for team 8. im not sure, however... i could imagine this being a desperation move in disguise from kespa. hire popular foreigner -> gain lots of publicity and foreigner attention -> find a foreign sponsor -> kespa rids them from their payroll.



hire popular foreigner -> gain lots of publicity and foreigner attention ,right.
but foreign sponsor? look at who's Proleague teams' sponsor

SK Telecom & KT like AT&T of Korea
STX is a very big shipbuilding company.
CJ is a topclass food & entertainment company in Korea
WoongJin Group is big too.
and,what need I say about Samsung?

The problem is not "no companies want be a sponsor",it's the companies who willing to support E-sports can't clear Kespa's standard. Only companies big enough can become proleague's sponsor.

get foreigner attention->get Korean big comany's attention.this is KeSPA's real purpose.

Team 8 is growing, it's good! With BaBy and Speed they'll have solid Terran lineup. Anyway I think Major will be rather good practice partner than regular performer, much like KT's BarrackS. But if he can get good enough he could be sent out more, we'll see.
Team 8 BaBy will be the next Terran Bonjwa in HoTS | HSC V, the best tournament in 2012 | GD Studio #1 no fluff esports show

That was during the time Thorzain was also 4-0'd by Lucifron and mentioned he hadn't practiced TvT for a long time.

Awesome... Good luck Major!!! youre an awesome terran to watch man.


question: What other foreigners have ever played for a KESPA team?

Semi-recently just Nony, Ret and IdrA. There were a fair few if you go back to the time of hexatron (~2004) like Nazgul, grrr, legionare, elky, assem.


AMD Dream Team actually, Hexatron was a bit later.


That and Legionnaire and Assem were on P.O.S. Assem would later join Hexatron. Those were the last few who actually made the A-Team rosters. The other guys were training for Courage and IdrA was a member of eSTRO and would later transfer over to the CJ b-team where he would make strides. Very unfortunate for NonY. eSTRO would have given him a pro gamer license if he stayed like IdrA.

There were a few other guys as well like Draco on OGN Sparkyz but that would never materialize because like NonY he had personal reasons for leaving. Then you have Pj and Lx on SKT1 but those were for Political reasons more than anything else. You never really got to see them play anywhere else. :/ Now we have guys from EG and I guess Juan fits in with T8 considering they need players and he really wants a KeSPA team for now lol.

That sounds like a jab at Lucifron. Honest, Juan can do no worse than Thorzain.

Biggest issue for me is T8 disbanding soon. He might not even have time to get settled in once the season ends.
