i really liked nakseo! i hope he didn't retire! violet too!
|
Bye, AZUBU. RIP to you too. It's only a matter of time, now. :/
Good luck to all players in finding a new home. viOlet and Monster should have no problem. Not sure about the rest, though ...
|
LG-IM gets another protoss lol, let's see what they can do with Tassadar
|
Woah wut
Zubbuuuuuuuuu! ;;
and wtf @ Monster. He was starting to actually become good.

AZUBU but what about San?

NAKSEO retiring? hopefully not. He seems to be on the cusp of being good but he keeps failing in the code a qualifiers
|
nakseo? really? He had a really good GSTL season. Wonder what happened
|
TOP
|
Man, feel really bad for the constantly migrating oGs players.
|
Azubu had such a strong lineup. Going to be interesting to see where they go.

IM? Why Tassadar? What on earth
|
|
Whaaaaaaaaaaat, Monster's retiring? Why? He was doing so well. T__________T
|
The Inca/Top/Eve didn't really surprise me, no results so just cutting the dead weight, Not sure why they would cut violet, maybe cause he wants to live in America?
|
why are you saying bye to Azubu?? Only violet was unexpected, Eve, TOP and Inca leaving, I'm surprised they get rid of those 3 loong ago, they have absolutely no results, and not very impressive player either. Azubu might be in a bit of danger, with recent things with the organisation pulling out of all other Korean business, but this is no indication of such.
|
It will be really hard for Azubu to compete now, their roster is so mall... I'm very surprised that they didn't make an official announcement regarding the fate of their captain Violet!
Current Azubu roster:
BBoongBBoong
GanZi
Genius
San
Sleep
SuperNova
Symbol
VINES

I'm guessing since violet was never on an actual ESF team he can go to a Kespa team?
Like KT?
(sorry. too soon?)

EG.viOlet, more likely. 
Haha, it's been so long since mass player transfers, this is kind of exciting.

For the next thirteen months, the Korean eSports Association (KeSPA) and eSports Federation cannot transfer players to each other. This trade lock period will last until October 2013.

Didn't expect viOLet to leave AZUBU like this, guess he found a better team.
|

Azubu is going to stop funding the team, hence them all leaving.
|
nakseo ;_; will miss you. Hope the others can find a team, might be hard though.
|
I don't understand the commotion about Azubu's team changes... I mean with the exception of ViOlet, think back to the last time you saw one of those players play an official match.
Their roster has more or less stayed exactly the same, as far as GSTL goes.

If EG-TL decides to do proleague again, this would be a good time to pick up some good players.

I hope violet joins TL, I think that'd be awesome.

I feel like he is too self centered. Doesnt he have his own management people even when he was on AZUBU? TL is more like a family and team is put first.

Wow, Azubu is really downsizing

He'd do well on Team Polt. Seems like that kind of guy.

thank you for the article

violet and monster are amazing, shouldn't be too long before we hear about a new home for them
hopefully everyone else can find something as well

Monster is going to join kespa ?

viOLet is one of my favorite players, but right now he's not worth diddly squat. He was #1 on their squad initially, then plummeted down. I'd say he's like #6 or 7. (or was)
|
Violet might go to EG with Stephano retiring...and he might be a good fit as he trains mostly "alone" and EG will send him all at any event he wants to attend.

wtf monster is out? i thought he IS a beast?
|
NSHS made a good run, at least some of their players already found a new team, so that's always good. Sad for Azubu, but TOP actually did have results in the TW scene while Inca struggled to qualify for EU. Not to say that TOP didn't either, but he actually had a result lol. Violet probably gonna go to a foreign team, I can see him on TL, Bumblebee is a great manager and he really takes care of his players. Nakseo was actually looking pretty good, decent results, maybe he is looking to take his talents to another team. No idea who FXOHope is, so maybe we'll see him in the next GSTL or next GSL qualifiers.
|
I think the most surprising thing here by far is Monster leaving MVP

All signs point to nope

Where Violet ends up will be interesting

Monster? wow. Whoever get him are going to get a really strong top tier zerg
|
CM_Storm Violet
Azubu too shady for Violet's image now.
|
Monester/NAKSEO is a pretty freaking big shock.
TOP, Inca and Eve not getting renewed is not surprising...sadly. Used to be a big fan of TOP and Inca when they were oGs
|
Violet to Startale I BELIEVE!
Also, welcome SalvatioN!

gl in the future and best of luck to the rookies.

viOlet is still represented by CSN, and was represented throughout his whole AZUBU contract by them as well.

Violet needs to go solo again, it´s what he´s best at. Maybe some sort of cooperation to make training/living easier.
Shouldn´t a lot more contracts run out in Autumn?

Violet should join Axiom. Make it happen TB

Even if the ranking is: Symbol/Supernova/San as top 3, maybe Sleep as 4, I wouldn't say viOLet is 6-7. He is 5 at worst.

Sleep over YugiOh to get into Code S, actually.

She´s probably gonna supply us with picutres and fanfics about gamer girls, as there seems to be a huge market for that.

Aww.
YugiOh's weakness is ZvT but he is strong in ZvZ despite his loss to Sleep, and good at ZvP. He was just in OSL and almost advanced from a tough group in Ro32.
I don't consider Crazy very good.
Savage had a period of looking good and I thought he'd overtake TRUE, but his winrates are abysmal.

I would very much like that. Axiom seems a lot more free spirited than other Korean teams, where Violet struggled. Plus, he could make some English content from the training house.

Whoah Nakseo retiring, surprising.
And what the fucking hell, LG-IM gets Tassadar? What on earth. I don't think IM needs another bloody protoss, and a terrible terrible one at that. Tassadar could improve, but to what use? The Protoss roster is amazing already. >_<

inb4 Tassadar wins a championship.
|
Nakseo/Monster is pretty confusing. I'm guessing Violet wants a foreign team or more money, idk.
|
violet would be a good pickup for EG/TL but the rest are lower skilled players
|
I don't even consider Violet a top Zerg anymore, he didn't achieve much in ages, he definitely got the potential, but he seems to be in a slump for a long time now, same as DRG.

Really curious to see where viOLet goes. Seems like a cool guy in interviews and always sold his sponsors well.

He hasn't really been to that many tournaments though since hots launched, only HSC 7, and dreamhack summer(for weekend tournies), he's in wcs am ro16 this season he was also in the ro16 last season as well but had visa issues so he couldn't attend, other than that he's played a few gstl matches.

It was answered in the other thread, choya requested to take tassadar instead and hirai gave the ok. IM probably didn't want him that badly and eSF told them they had to take a ex-nsh player.

probably because he doesn't bring much depth to the team, he would be like 5th string protoss. Seed left to FXO because he was like their 4th best Protoss and he wasn't getting any play time.

FXO having to eat the leftovers of LG-IM. ;p

Since he's the only one still practicing them I'm sure he's got to be the best at them. Practice makes perfect
... right?

Millenium viOLet please. PLEASE.
By the way, NAKSEO is going to military service.

Only violet was unexpected, Eve, TOP and Inca leaving, I'm surprised they get rid of those 3 loong ago, they have absolutely no results, and not very impressive player either. Azubu might be in a bit of danger, with recent things with the organisation pulling out of all other Korean business, but this is no indication of such.
You fail to see that it's not them leaving or getting kicked, it's simply their contracts expirieng and I'm fairly sure that all the other player contracts will expire soon too and then azubu should be gone.
Really happy to see tasadar finding a new home on nshoseo, their sick P lineup should make him pretty godly, afterall he still won a code a by 4 gating puzzle.

Cool bunch of players still on AZUBU too. I sort of want the team to fall and fail as well, just because of the shady business that owns the team. Not the players, though, I hope to see them doing very well on other teams, but the sooner that AZUBU is gone, the better...maybe. Maybe finish this season whenever it finishes (could someone tell me?) and then the players go elsewhere? I think that at least sounds good to me. I'd love to see those players on other teams, I honestly don't hear much of AZUBU as a team.

Top , Inca ... im so sad ... i hope they will remain there .. if not another 1-2 years of no team or maybe worst ... retire

Genius and ViOlet are such hot pickups
I actually loved azubu and they did great in gstl T.T

Sad that viOlet and Eve are no longer there. viOlet of course, is a fantastic player. I always wanted to see Eve succeed and get that win she was hoping for. Gender aside, I wish for any underdog to take a win.
|
it's a shame that a team sponsored by a nonexistent company isn't holding its players
|
Wow bummer for AZUBU.
Can't see much good coming to LG-IM for the Tassadar pick up :\
|
I think one of the reasons violet left is that he wasn't able to stream on twitch. I'm kind of happy for this now because I loved his stream. Streaming on azubu.tv was sketchy because there was only 1 sc2 channel and half the you couldn't tell who was streaming.
|
Damn NAKSEO was a solid zerg for MVP =/
|
Nakseo is rumored to be retiring??? damn
|
I think this is just the beginning of the end of Azubu. I mean wasn't violet like the player who started it all with having a personal sponsorship by them. I doubt they wouldn't resign him if they could.
|
|
Wait, did Tassadar go to IM or FXO? OP says FXO.
Edit: Nevermind, found the link.
|
Huge changes... Monster  And Azubu... Come on !
|
really exited about ST_Salvation

azubu still a strong team after this, if they'd pick up 1 or 2 quality players I could even see them competing in PL.
