That seems wierd to me as he just made it into code a. Aria is in code a as well no? Ah well jangbang retired from a code s spot so I guess that doesn't mean much  | ||

So due to Totalbiscuit being Layton style cryptic here I would imagine that either TotalBiscuit knows what's happening with Zero, maybe something to do with Axiom or he's just keeping quiet and doing one of his "nyeh nyeh nyeh nyeh nyeh, I know what's happening and you don't" style posts which I've gotten quite used to by this point. | ||

Or he's just pointing out that "not signing a good player" does not equal "team is being stupid". Which should be rather obvious. There's countless reasons why that could be. The player retired. The player got a non-Kespa team. The player isn't that good after all. The player wants too much money. The player has an injury. The negotiations are not finished yet. etc. | ||

As we have learned in the past, transparency with information regarding others gets us crucified by the community. No, actually what I'm trying to do is inform the people that don't know, that teams don't just pick up players on the basis of past results and that there are many factors at play, most of which are not actually public information. ZerO is not getting ignored because he is some hidden gem and all the teams are just stupid and don't know what talent is. | ||

I guess he just asks for too much money, which is to be expected from numerous times MSL and OSL semifinalist. Not worth it for the teams at this point though.. EDIT: I just hope free and ZerO will somehow find a new home, I would be very sad to see them retire. At that point I would probably really need to start watching BW... | ||

My guess would be that he's privately considering retirement so obviously teams won't sign him until he makes a decision one way or the other. | ||

The point is that he might not be good enough. Or teams made offers and Zero wanted more money than they were willing to pay. Zero likely has options if he wants to keep playing. | ||

With regards to "MSL & OSL seminifinal...", BW skill obviously doesn't transfer over at 1:1, so bringing up BW results isn't really worth a whole lot. | ||

If a player isn't getting picked up, there's a very good reason for it. This argument comes up all the time in pro sports, and there is very little substance to it. There are countless examples of players coming up big after some team invests in them despite general disinterest from the rest of their league. Just take a look at the draft history of any year in any sport. | ||

Although Bravo (aka hon_sin) seemed to be getting stronger at BW just before the switch. He seems to have a lot of potential which hopefully can be tapped by coach oov. | ||
