"Trying to live off their past glory"?
Have you considered the possibility that maybe, just maybe, these players have developed close relationships and work well together due to their time together on SlayerS, and thus being on the same team together is beneficial to them as progamers? No, that's ludicrous. The real reason must be that TB just wants to live off of SlayerS's "past glory". I guess Azubu's also trying to live off of oGs's past glory, right? -_-;;
I hope you're trolling because it's hard to believe that someone can sincerely have such a stupid perspective on something.

Everyone can see you are a colossal jackass.
People on the ISS can see it it's that obvious.

Good. My SlayerS icon disappeared and I looked for it again but couldn't find it, so I picked KT instead. Now it's time for the proper change.
Why'd the SlayerS icon disappear?
I mean, I still have the ACE icon, and they no longer exist either.

Great announcement, full of character and showcasing that the players and team have personalities. Also, Scarlett finally getting to Korea - which I understand has been one of her goals since way back when she signed with that flash in the pan fly by night team initially.
Kudos, TB, and also many more kudos to Genna - you're doing it right. People can whine all they want to about "it's SlayerS 2.0" but judging from the videos and personalities presented, it may have some of the same players that were on Slayers but they are individually and as a group different in mind and spirit. They are not in the shadow of the Emperor, and while I don't think anyone would question Boxer's commitment or passion, there is still something to be said for standing apart from his legacy and having a chance to create their own.
Oh, and Scarlett - hope Axiom and Acer will come together to help her with Korean, the way that Axiom has been helping their players become more marketable through English lessons.
Any thoughts on if you might include any other Acer foreigners in the Axcer eSports archon?

Utterly surprised no Nerchio. He would be so sick in GSTL.

Don't listen to the hate TB. You have so many eager fans awaiting good things!

It is not as if Totalbiscuit or anyone from Axiom presents their team as Ex-SlayerS. In fact it seems more that Axiom is doing their best to rebrand these players and present them in a light that perhaps hasn't been seen before. In fact Axiom is probably doing a much better job promoting their players then most other teams in the SC2 scene at the moment and they should be applauded for giving players from SlayerS another chance to work, play and destroy together again.
A successful team isn't just one that wins a lot. A successful team is one that works well together, in training, in social situations. A close-knit team will go a lot further then one that has internal strife.

Only signing koreans cus they are cheap? I guess it would be too expensive to pay westerners a decent salary.

I don't know why you even bother responding to these jerks TB, they clearly just want to try and get a response out of you.
BTW with the team competing at GSTL, does that mean you'll be making more trips over there as well? Maybe some guest appearances on the GSTL English Stream perhaps? Not that I don't like Khaldor and Wolf but I think having you there as a guest sometimes would be appropriate.

I think TB has talked about making the Korean scene/situation better, so it makes sense to only take Koreans.
