Yeah never believe bomber when he says he's going to the military. When he goes I'm not going to believe it until several months after it happens.

More players looking for salaries, might be sad but they are good players so they deserve it imo.

I wonder what kind of future awaits for ESF, seems like their only stable team is IM and that may be just because of their LoL squad

I'm also curious about how Azubu and other newer and big korean teams like Najin will fit in all of this, will they join Kespa? ESF2?

Maybe Parting showed Squirtle what his set salary will be with KeSPA.


Heh, I think most of the players kind of know their market value at this point. I doubt PartinG is the first and only player to enquire about their salary if they switched to Kespa or foreign team.

Nooooo! Why are these protossos leaving startale =( I love squirtle and I love startale, why do they have to separate!

GL to squirtle though, I hope he's happy with his choice and finds good success.
The multiplying villanies of man do swarm upon him.

That sucks....
If that happens to one of the more financially stable teams, I wonder what will happen to the other ESF teams in the near future.

"
Parting who represented your team alongside you as Protosses recently left the team

I was really taken aback since I had no idea he wanted to. Then again, it's understandable. Our team won't be in disarray or anything because of his departure. I was a bit saddened since Parting has been doing so well lately. I guess I'll just have to make up for his absence. "

Yeah. You sure did, bro. (Source: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=392062 )

Startale... last year this was just about the best team out there... now they're falling apart. I mean they still have great players like Life and Bomber, but both their AMAZING Protoss players are gone now. Makes me sad =(

Buy Parting, get Squirtle for free.

But wait, that's not all! Call in the next 20 minutes and we'll throw in Life for absolutely free!

There's more! We'll include brand new Bomber free of charge!

I remember saying the same thing in his fanclub once, lol. It made everyone really really sad.

Nothing can beat steady salary after all.

They all realise that they can't expect to keep doing well in tournaments to get money. They also have to prepare for times when they not do well and still receive money.

Squirtle: Man, what a traitor. We were like brothers! I will become the Protoss ace of Startale and lead us to the title!

*Parting texts Squirtle what his set salary will be for going to KeSPA*

Squirtle: Well, coach, I mean...you see...I love Startale, like a family, you know, but I think I need a new start in my career. It's been great!

Honestly at this point I wonder if he has secretly done it and somehow no one noticed and hes been playing everyone for years because hes been talking about it for long time now.
