Wow another blow to ST protoss line up I hope Squirtle can find a new team soon. I'm sure ST will be ok though they still have a lot of really talented players!

Well, looks like some eSF teams will be disbanding if this becomes a trend.

That and Kespa teams will start having to kick out players who never transitioned well into SC2.

What? Can't believe it for 30sec
After that I just remember that Squirtle and PartinG are the best friends ( Yes they are really ). Can understand this

ST can't afford to lose any of their other top players. This is a shame.

If it's salary reasons, I'd guess he's looking for a foreign team, no?

If bomber does join the army, the only thing they need him to do is dropping bombs and he can do that from his comp when he has a break from practice :D

I take it you regularly turn down the opportunity for more money and better benefits for your job, right?

Startale used to be my favored team but without Squirtle and Parting it isn't the same.
It's good to be back

Yeah, real clever comment. Liking Squirtle makes you opportunistic, lol. He wins so many tournaments.

On a serious note, I feel the same way. Only player I really like on ST now is probably Bomber, and well, he's not the guy you want your favourite team to depend on at all times.

Hoping for T1 for Squirtle. It would be so great.

The teams do though. Not saying there's anything wrong with wanting more, because there really isn't.

I wonder if the foreign team trend is starting to shift to KeSPA trend now for the ESF Korean players.

Posts like this make me want to cry. No one knows how much he is currently earning or how much he is asking for. SC players have a relatively short shelf life and the competition is brutal

Big loss for Startale, but i am sure they will recover

This really cuts deep, real deep. Wonder if ST will go find another protoss or just stick it out until HotS comes out? Damn it, another bleach spot on my ST uniform!
