I thought TSL was a success-after-drama story. It's too bad it couldn't last.

Also I feel like Azubu fucked up.

They sign a bunch of middle of the road players.

A week later and they could have talked to Polt, Parting, Supernova, Symbol, Hyun, and BboongBboong.

Oops.

Cant fault them for that, they had no idea, plus they can pay the people they did get way less.

Your point is true of course, if the Korean teams change the way they operate, a lot more will be sustainable. I was just talking about the traditional Korean-centric teams, the way ESF and Kespa teams tend to behave.


Yup, the reality is that you can't be a Korean-centric team anymore in the same way you could be in BW. You have to be internationally-orientated.

ax.symbol pretty please? :-)

I've always seen TSL as a breeding ground. It's like the crickets you feed to a bearded dragon. You breed good players (JYP, Polt, Revival) then feed them to big teams (EG) and have the breeding center (TSL) die away.

While it is true that TSL has fostered a lot of talented players and was great at building skill, we should remember that Polt was not one of the homegrown talents - that honor belongs to Prime. In fact, I'd say his talent has stagnated on TSL, he's just gotten more exposure than on Prime, due to being sent out to more foreign tournaments.


Nah, Polt's a much, much better player after TSL than he was on Prime. Polt on Prime didn't know what a third base was.

i agree. while, lately, results haven't been as dramatic, it feels like he's a more well rounded player. (i do miss some of those extreme pressure builds he used to use more, though.)

KeSPA will hold a rookie league on 12th and 13th. It says anyone can participate, probably not players on KeSPA teams.
Total prize money is 9 million won.

Maybe some of these guys without a team can participate, will be sure money for players like Hyun, even just couple thousand dollars for champion is not too shabby. If Hyun can't participate, maybe some of unknown players on TSL can win some money in this league. If they want the potential opportunity in KeSPA teams, they can get the license too.

While Symbol is probably their best player, Hyun's probably the biggest name they got. Out of all of them, I can see Hyun being the most likely to get back on a KESPA team, even if MBCGame is no longer there.

I'd personally love it if Polt went back to Prime.
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

Well without having salaries its a no brainer that the top talents will constantly leave. Bad management. Finding sponsors can be hard but nevertheless you need to get your funds if you want to run a team/business.

It looks like ESF will take care of the ex TSL players or something like that, if anyone care to explain what exactly that article means : http://www.thisisgame.com/board/view.php?id=1413594&category=13438
