Najin will most likely replace MVP as the '8th' team in the LoL Proleague (since MVP's LoL teams jumped ship to Samsung).

So MVP is a SC2 only member and Najin is a LoL only member.

When will ESF and KESPA realize that the only way to bring stability to the Korean scene is through a big combined proleague where players are able to play every week. I mean it's great that proleague is starting again, but in order for there to be a "best player" in the world there needs to be other than the over-stacked GSL/WCS, where the few who make it to the higher rounds can be easily knocked out by the next guy, because the tournaments so hard everyone is too good. In a proleague all the players play every week, so we can really see who can show us consistency week after week in proleague rather than who gets knocked out last in the GSL rat race.
If you look at Flash's tournament results you will just see a low tier code S player, so we just see another low-tier code S player, but he showed consistency week after week in Proleague, earning himself the number one in wins, so we can still he is the same flash from BW.

Now imagine a proleague with all ESF and Kespa teams and all the small teams paired up
Prime
MVP
IM
CJ_Entus
KT_Rolster
SKT_T1
Samsung_Khan
Jin Air
fou+WJS
Azubu+Soul
Startale
Team Epic
EG-TL

That looks pretty good doesn't it, now imagine if that were reality

Where are the woongjin players going to go?


Well they are trying to keep them in woongjin apparently and rebuild the team around sOs and Soulkey. So id say they will either join the eSF and rebuild there or just sit back and rebuild without the problem of expectation of performance.

However, playing with a 6-man roster isn't great for a team. They'll need one or two more players with at least a minimal chance to beat mediocre to good PL players. I don't doubt that they have a few rookies accessible, but can those win games? If not, all their players are essentially locked in Korea for the PL season.

Yea agreed, i don't see Prime doing to well. It is also kinda sad how last seasons Finalists are not even in Proleague anymore.

Prime also has:
Splendid
Chance
Eins

I think they can win some games vs rookies, especially when for example Jin Air do not have a roster better then Prime's one (Only 6 players up to now!!).

So that would be CJ, SKT, KT, Jin Air, Samsung, Najin, IM, Prime. With each of them having two teams I wonder if we will actually have 16 teams then, or maybe a club masters format.

Also the "6 good players" is quite relative when looking at the roster.

Yes yes I know GSTL is small, but nothing will change for next season. The league is already down to the five of fOu, ST, Azubu, AxA and Azubu. With Prime, IM and MVP joining PL, nothing actually changes.

PL will be great, but looking at the TOP 10 ELO players right now on main page:

1. Dear
2. sOs
3. INnoVation
4. Polt
5. TaeJa
6. MMA
7. San
8. NaNiwa

None of them will be there...

Maybe it is because there is NOTHING in Korea and I see only KeSPA rookie players owning weekly events. There were some online prelims for DH and IEM but nobody counts these results.

And Top 1 player is the player who has managed to overcome insane Code B and Code A to be here.
There are about dozens of korean players who can do the same they just have no chance and luck.
