Well now he'll be one of the most importants players for his team, he was very relegated in LG-IM's spotlight due to Squirtle, First, YongHwa, MC, Mvp, Nestea, even Losira. Now in FXO it's no doubt he'll be their top player along with Leenock and Gumiho.

Seed will be eligible to play in the next GSTL match, right?


Unfortunately no, roster lock rules means he has to wait until next season.

From a fan's point of view, I'm okay with this. Even though I'd like to see Seed play more, it'd feel weird to see him immediately sent out for FXO when I've had no time to get used to the idea. Good luck to Seed and FXO!

Now that my initial shock is over I guess I'll give a real comment.

I don't get this, no offense to FXO but I don't think they're able to offer Seed a better training environment from IM. If that's the case then we can either assume Seed no longer felt comfortable on IM for whatever reason or he's getting a significant amount of money for this transfer. Either way I don't like it, really sad about this.

I think if Seed was ever going to return to relevancy he would do it on IM, not on another eSF team.

Seed's been on IM for a long time and things haven't been working well for him for a long time. If things aren't working out, it's smart to make a change. I don't think he has anywhere to go but up, it's worth a shot.

He doesn't want to be 5th-choice protoss anymore on a team that is so protoss-heavy, on a small team like FXO he can very realistically become #1. Plus FXO have an excellent GSTL pedigree that, if he's a part of a championship run, could jump-start his career again.

Why was he a fifth choice Protoss in the first place when he's the only Protoss Champion on their roster? Other than SK's MC.
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

Exactly, YongHwa, Squirtle, First and even Ruin are doing better in HoTS

I'm sure it will be good for him, at least in terms of money, seeing as FXO bought out his contract.

It's just a bit hard for me to see someone who has been on one of my favorite teams for so long leave, I was watching live when he won GSL and Mvp and Nestea went into his booth to welcome him to the GSL champions club. He won IPL TAC 3 for IM, he was the only one who could beat Taeja at that time. It just stings for me to see him go after everything that has happened. Even if he's no longer as important for IM he was still one of the guys I wanted to see with the rest of the team at the studio when they went to play.

True that, I am also a fan of Seed and I remember when NesTea said that Seed lost his game passion. After that he wasnt the same Seed

Shit I thought "Hey, Leenock, GuMiho and Tear is a good Z/T/P trio on FXO".

But Leenock, GuMiho, Seed ? That's sick !

This is a good move for all parties

IM have a lot of great toss players, this frees some salary space and shrinks the roster a little bit allowing the other players to receive more attention.

FXO pick up a good protoss player (something there roster was lacking) and they add some more star calibre.

Seed gets a fresh start with a new team which could kick start his rejuvenation to become a champion once again.
