Fnatic would need to sign at least 2 more players in Korea or have 2 of their 3 international players move to Korea in order to meet the 5 player minimum. Their Korean roster currently consists of

Pretty sure he's the coach so I doubt we'll be seeing him play.

They only have 2 Zergs and 1 Terran. Polt and Hyun/Symbol would be amazing additions. They could also turn to Supernova, TheSTC or ForGG . I don't see PartinG joining them, since they got so many Protoss.

A partnership with Fnatic would be awesome as well

I dont think it will be both HyuN and Symbol since they already announced they were picking up 1 more player before TSL disbanded. I suppose it's possible that they had insider information and were prepared but I think it was they had 1 player in mind and then after TSL ended they decided to get one of their players.

Isn't Polt going to America for school though? Why would he join AZUBU for GSTL if he's not going to be in Korea?

Expecting either 2 TSL zergs, or 1 TSL zerg and supernova or parting.

Yes, he's going to America, and dropping out of GSL. The reason people thought he was joining before is because they didn't say the one more player they were recruiting was going to play in GSTL, so Polt could join and represent them at international ( NA ) competitions. Now that they have clarified the two new players will play in GSTL It's highly unlikely that Polt will be joining.

Great to see Azubu really investing into sc2. I can't wait to see them and Axiom in the GSTL.

Speaking of which, this years GSTL (if all pans out well) seems to be looking like it'll have these 8 teams.

LG-IM
PRIME
Startale
FXO
MVP
NSHoseo
Axiom
Azubu

Hope they do a solid year long team league. Or at least half a year and really expand the prize pool for the team leagues. It's hard to not feel that some teams are on the brink of disbandment given their financial situations and their talent leaving and putting more emphasis on team leagues will help these teams at least stay afloat for one more year.

Well, AZUBU growing fast. Good stuff.

As for Axiom in GSTL, even with four players they are still too small for a GSTL team, aren't they.

I guess they could recruit more players or partner with Fnatic perhaps.

I don't think Fnatic is going to join again, isn't their roster too small now?

Its silent around fnatic, but they ve announced new players last year, so still waiting for the bomb to explode.
I guess and hope they sign the three TSL Aces...

All due respect to Azubu/Axiom but I hope that GOM chooses the teams carefully so that there wont be such case like players playing for pride cuz the team disbands midway.

Well i kinda think it s strange that no one noticed that EG is capable to play in GSTL due to their increase in roster:Revival, Puma, JYP, Huk, Thorzain, JD, Stephano, maybe Idra. Ofc, some players might leave Korea when GSTL will start but as long as they have 5 players it s pretty much ok. Although i would like to see EG-TL in GSTL too would be cool for sure!
