TSL produced so much talent for an underdog team. Sad to see them go. Can't help to think that some other ESF teams might go as well.

Is a real shame, but I am sure Symbol and Hyun will be snapped up pretty quickly!

We'll definitely see HyuN and Symbol get picked up, but its a shame to their up-and-comers like RagnaroK, Shine, and Center who don't have as much star-power or name-value.

The players left them because they weren't getting paid or the promisses were never fullfilled. It was a drama factory.

I'm sad tho, it was a "oldschool" team like oGs and it's sad so them go.

Good luck for the players.

Maybe it`s not really unwillingnes but rather inability from the ESF teams to market themselves properly. Most of the established western teams have a staff of (semi-)professionals that work in the background and take care of marketing, the team`s webpage etc. In teams like FXO, TL or EG you also find people that have a strong background in finance or law. Compared to that most ESF teams seem to consist mainly of a coach/manager (e. g. a veteran Kespa player) and the players, most of whom were Kespa B-teamers or unknown PC-Bang heros. None of them really has the knowledge how to negotiate with sponsors, set up contracts or interact with foreign fans. Given that they are also unable to even pay their star players, it`s easy to see that they haven`t got a lot to offer in order to lure qualified people to fulfill those tasks.

On a side note, it is obviously the end of TSL-Millenium partnership. I don't know exactly if it was a fruitful partnership as, for instance, we never saw Stephano (before going EG) or ForGG playing in GSTL as it was expected at one point... Nevertheless, Millenium wishes good luck to all players and shows support to Coach Lee in this article (written in French).

Dayum. ESF Teams are getting weak.
Slayers OGS and TSL gone. Zenex now part of Startale.
Now what do we have left?
Nshoseo. I don't see them beeing around much longer. Altough i certainly hope so.
Fxo, LG-IM, MVP, Prime, Startale and MVP... that's not very much.

Wow. I'm not too sure who's going to pick up these players, what with how some other top players have been on the market for a while, too.
