Is Parting the biggest FA ever in terms of skill when he became a FA? Puma maybe, though he was never really a FA.

I'd say him and Polt are about even. If we're talking foreign teams, Polt is probably still #1.

He knows English, how to run a stream, and is going to America to solely focus on foreign tournaments and learn English. Parting is mega popular and a great personality, but he doesn't know English. Polt is already the best Korean at English and will probably be able to become an English caster by the end of his year.

If Snute leaves, I'd say the top five are:

1. Polt
2. Snute
3. Parting
4. Supernova
5. TheStC

This is solely from a foreign team standpoint. If you're just looking for results in 2013 at the highest level, you obviously take Parting then Polt and then the rest.

I'm interested to see if this gives us any new information.

Google Translate suggests there's little new info. His departure from ST was amicable, he decided to leave after his recent wins, he has not chosen a team yet?

Given parting's recent success and the amount of sponsors startale has it must be one hell of a team to pull him away from whatever startale had to offer him, then again life is probably taking quite the chunk maybe he wants more.


I really doubt Life was making a lot in salary for this year, but with his success at the end of the year and now contracts being made for 2013 It's possible that Startale decided to allocate the majority of their resources to Life's pay. PartinG maybe felt it was unfair and wanted to look elsewhere, PartinG did win stuff but life won two GSL's, which is more important to Startale.

Also possible that's totally wrong and PartinG just wanted to leave for a rich foreign team regardless, I have to wonder how hard Startale tried to keep him.

This seems to be the same thing we will/have seen from a lot of ESF players, they just want to be on a decent salary and travel to foreign events. ESF teams will start to struggle more and more imo with Kespa/more foreign teams entering Korea unless they can market themselves a lot better than they are atm.

Good luck to Parting I'm sure he will get picked up quickly.

A fair point Fionn, I even with recent showings I think that a strong Protoss outweighs a Zerg like Snute (I like Snute well enough, but you know imo and the like), Snute is in an interesting group as far as foreign Zerg go these days.

Nani seems to be doing well with the a la AZUBU individual sponsorship from Mionix. Not sure he qualifies as looking for a new team

IMO you left out Golden. Golden isn't a very accomplished player, yes. But anyone who saw him in the ffa at NASL and can think a few steps further should know that he is a very entertaining guy. A good team could surely market him extremely good!

I think TheStC is worth more than Supernova due to it's reputation of always being smiling. I know this sounds arbitrary, but at least to me it feels like a valuable thing. He seems super nice!

Oh what, I honestly thought he was joking when I saw this earlier. Maybe he's moving to EG to retire... or Liquid haha.

ESF teams don't have a strict contract for their players, most of them may not even have contracts. They can't control their players, players will do whatever they want, in the long run, sponsors will never become owner if they can't control players.

He does, he said it many times that it is only temporary partnership that fits him well, but he is still looking for a new team. He said on his stream that he would like to join liquid - That wont happen i am afraid though

Fionn, I put more emphasis on winning because you know what? It's actually not that hard to market a winner. It really isn't.

Supernova is very attractive now, though.

That bumps him up.

Interview with PartinG abut leaving ST

On the January 3rd, through StarTale's press release, Won Lee Sak (PartinG) has left to find a new team. In last year's second half, PartinG won BWC (Battlenet World Championship) and WCG (World Cyber Games) side by side, dominating strongly with his skills. Early morning on the 3rd, Coach Won decided upon the future of PartinG, respecting his will and amicably split.

On the 3rd, Coach Won said, "I am grateful for the time and effort PartinG gave to the team, and where ever he goes, he finds success"

PartinG, who decide to leave, said, "StarTale is a great team, but I wanted to experience more since last year. For the time I was on ST, I am thankful for the coach".

PartinG's future has not been fully determined yet, and has said he will find a team quickly.
