Actually I am not sad at all.

What a perfect time for a team to go out. Win a proleague and BAM. Done. Poetic in a way.

Hyvaa though

Classic to SKTT1, hell yeah, more Protoss

I really hope Bisu doesn't retire though. He's one of the main reasons, alongside Best as to why I like SKT so much.

Supernovamaniac tweeted that he is just jobless and not retired =).
If GSTL and Proleague are combined into one league, the viewer counts and Prestigious level will definitely increased, one can hope!

We had the Post TI3 roster shuffle thread in Dota 2, I think the Cataclysm should have a giant thread by itself, instead of everything stuffed in here

@supernovamaniac: MVP is going to hand over the LoL team to Khan, SC2 team is going to disband, and Prime is hoping that they'll pick up sponsor through KeSPA


I wouldn't be able to handle that T_T
Holy fuck the scene is volatile in Korea.

MVP not getting their own main sponsor for both their LoL teams and SC2 is just awful.
Yet another Finalist team have to disband and their members being picked up by other teams just seem wrong.

(based on if the rumors are true but honestly I take it with a fucking bathtub of salt)
The curse is real

If Bisu retires, he is going to the military or go back to Broodwar i'd figure. Better that way than watch him struggle in SC2.

I think this is appropriate for this thread

And if IM, Prime and MVP were to join KeSPA, what would become of eSF?

"They really don't have a reason to keep the SC2 teams anymore due to popularity of SC2 compared to BW"

Alex Kim ‏@supernovamaniac 1m

"Some teams are just keeping SC2 players to minimum and will be focusing on backing up LoL teams"

Alex Kim ‏@supernovamaniac 1m

Heh at least this next tweet is a translation from a reporter, not a rumor:


Huuh.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

https://twitter.com/supernovamaniac is currently posting a lot of rumors. Here's a summary.
  • RUMOR: Bisu to retire, Hydra to (possibly) retire
  • RUMOR: EffOrt, RorO, and Stork not going to retire
  • RUMOR: Hyvaa not retired, just "jobless"?
  • RUMOR: KeSPA downsizing SC2 teams to 5-6 people / Reporter: Organizations will focus on LoL teams
  • RUMOR: IM leaves eSF, KeSPA trying to get LG to sponsor IM
  • RUMOR: MVP dissolves, SC2 team disbanded, LoL squad to Samsung KHAN
  • RUMOR: Prime leaves eSF, hopes KeSPA can help find a sponsor

Even without Innovation and Classic their roster is still very formidable to any GSTL team. GL to them!


I very much doubt this but we will see.

Good luck to Soul, I hope someone picks up the flag soon or if not that at least the players find a new home.

Sucks to see all of the financial issues the KeSPA sponsors are dealing with, as if things weren't already volatile enough for the SC2 scene in Korea.
