next season of proleague: team 8th disbanded and LG-IM pick their place.

players get picked in other teams and PL gets a team with big sponsor on the league.

who am I kidding xD


that actually is a real posibility.



With the entrance of the KeSPA-teams in the korean sc2-scene, it's only logical that a few teams will die, both in eSF and in KeSPA. One can only hope that they get to participate in a unified team league soon. It would be awesome.

Major! I'm sorry to see you leave ProLeague, I guess I'll be forced to trade you from my fantasy team against my will!

Good luck to ya buddy, hope to see you in the scene soon!

Sad day for a guy I always rooted for. Good luck Major.. you deserved a longer chance with Team8 but consider this a new beginning rather than an ending.

This sounds quite troubling. The pay wasn't anything special for the players either.

If KeSPA struggles to pay that amount.... :/

Nice to hear it wasn't his own choice to leave the team. Also sad to hear that Kespa is cutting players. Good luck Major.


This is my sentiment as well. When I saw the title I was worried he just got over it. At least he gave it his best shot.

It's team 8 though. They don't have much in the way of sponsors.

major is honestly one of those players who dont give a crap what he gets, as long as he gets a roof over his head and a chance to play the game

kinda sucks though for sc2 in korea meanwhile other teams are thriving with multiple LoL teams.

oh well, major should be able to find a team no problem with his new korean-trained skills
the throws never bothered me anyway

They've already picked up at least 1 new player for next season though, probably more at end of season

Wouldn't "removed from T8" be more accurate?

This seems much like his usual team-hopping, which in this case is rather unfair.


I agree

I really hope he can join a premier team and not ROOT if he does plan to continue to stick in progaming. Must be pretty tough for Juan right now since he's sacrificed so much exposure for so much time in order to chase his Kespa dream, so I don't know if any team is willing to take him right now. (

not so much leaving the team as being kicked. spl isnt blossoming as they hoped so they have to make cuts. major being one of the first to go makes perfect sense to me
