Woongjin Stars "posted" (put up for auction) their two players sOs and Soulkey. As a result, (Z)Soulkey has joined SK Telecom T1. sOs has joined Jin Air Green Wings, alongside MaruPrime, as previously reported.

With zero players left, Woongjin Stars will be disbanding. Founded as the HanbitSoft Stars in 2000, Stars was one of the oldest progaming teams in StarCraft history. In 2008, Hanbit Stars acquired a new sponsor and became Woongjin Stars, the team's second and final name.

Crazy day, but this is great news for sOs, Soulkey and Proleague. Waiting for the "Jaedong to participate in PL alongside team X" news.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

But it is really hard for Prime to be a real champion contender (is that term right?) now. What players can they hire now? They don't have so much money and would need two really good guys to be a real threat. :/

KT could be a contender if they bought up a little esf talent. But other than that, it looks like the finals will be Jinair and SKT.

yeah, well, at least alive wouldn't be bad, but its hard enough to get on the lineup as it is with so many people on the team.

aLive is ok but they have no use for another terran after signing TY imo

Still surprise no one tries to grab Dear/Trap. Wasnt protoss the greatest asset of every team last season?

Baby is on KT.
Hydra is on CJ.
Crazy-Hydra is a different Zerg player (mostly going only as 'Crazy' nowadays) and is on KT.

Classic is toss, and is really really really good, and I don't like him and don't want him to be good, so take that for what it's worth. Fantasy is terran too..

This proleague season is over before it even began, except for all the piss-poor teams fighting over for second place.

RAIN. PARTING. CLASSIC. SOULKEY. FANTASY. SOO.

My only concern is that it will be impossible to draft an all-SK Telecom fantasy team.

Glad Soulkey didn't join a foreign team or non-proleague team. Same with sOs. As long as they both are playing in proleague I'm okay with whatever team they go to.

The day when ZerO all-killed Hwaseung Oz

The day when SoulKey first defined himself as A-class player with his all-kill

The moment when Free became part of 6 dragons, and performed consistent in the scene.

The moment when Flying became a Proleague starter for Woongjin Stars, working all the way from Gosl days.

The moment when GGPlay reverse sweeped Iris.

And the day that I felt happy when I realized that Hanbit was still supporting StarCraft, even though their support for Korean-StarCraft dropped after few patches.




Another team that fades into history. But another team I will never forget.

Thoughts...

1. SKT1 (obviously, lol)
2. Jin Air Green Wings (sOs and Maru are great, and they have support from Savage, Pigbaby, TRUE)
3. KT Rolster (God. Zest, TY, and Crazy aren't bad either)
4. MVP (Swagger, Super, KeeN, DRG, Sniper. So many Code S Ro32 players o.o)
5. Incredible Miracle (Mvp!!!!!!! also, First, Losira, Squirtle, YoDa, YongHwa... they sure have age if anything)
6. CJ Entus (herO, Hydra, EffOrt, and Bbyong are all getting there. What about Sora...?)
7. Samsung Galaxy Khan (unless RorO or Stork become bonjwa, they got nothing.)
8. Prime (lol they suck)

I'm pretty excited. I expect SKT1 to easily win, but imo 2-6 is a toss up.

Woongjin Stars, you shall be missed.
I root for CJ because their fb posts are hilarious

2. Jin Air Green Wings
3. CJ Entus
4. KT Rolster (3 and 4 are interchangeable)
5. IM
6. MVP
7. Samsung
8. Prime

1. SKT
2. Jin Air
3. MVP
4. CJ
5. KT
6. IM
7. Samsung
8. Prime
I expect it to be pretty competitive under SKT from 2-6 and then Samsung and Prime will lag behind.

omg I cannot fucking wait for FPL!
I just hope they don't release the lineups before the actual games this season

Anyways, as far as how strong the teams are:

1. SKT (obviously)
2. CJ Entus (they CAN beat SKT1! Also Hydra best zerg 2014!!)
3. Jin Air (They are actually very very good now, with Coca, Maru and sOs)
4. KT (They are also good, Flash/Zest/Stats. Missing awesome Zergs though!)
5. IM (Well, as EG-TL learned last time, things are not gonna be good for you, when HerO is to be considered your ace)
6. MVP (meh.)
7. KHAN (HOW IN THE FUCK HAVE YOU NOT STRENGTHEN YOUR SQUAD AFTER YOUR BEST PLAYER LEFT?!)
8. Prime (lol. I just hope Kal gonna be good and transfers before it's too late)

such changes. much hype. wow!
JangBi forever <3 || Classic! herO! Rain! Zest! | Rogue! Hydra! Solar! | Fantasy! Cure! Reality! Sorry! Journey!

1 SKT
2 CJ
3-6 IM
3-6 KT
3-6 Jin Air
3-6 MVP
7 Galaxy
8 Prime

3-6 are all tied. No way to really separate these teams. But I'd put them in this order. IM is built for Proleague but they will lose a lot of ace matches.

The only team that I have no clue how they will do is KT Rolster considering how many players they have who have no results. However, their team only got better with the pickup of TY, so I think they will put up some serious fight. MVP and IM already have a lot of Code S players, so I think they will do just fine and dandy too.
I root for CJ because their fb posts are hilarious

Soulkey, PartinG, Rain, jesus, SKT calm down. Too much power.

Also, I had no idea that Maru left Prime for Jin Air.

I can't recall if SKT ever looked this OP ever

On the other hand though, if SKT is looking this imba then maybe someone else is leaving?

The moment when Flying became a Proleague starter for Woongjin Stars, working all the way from Gosl days.

The moment when GGPlay reverse sweeped Iris.

And the day that I felt happy when I realized that Hanbit was still supporting StarCraft, even though their support for Korean-StarCraft dropped after few patches.




Another team that fades into history. But another team I will never forget.


This is why we need you back in Korea, snm. No one knows their Proleague history like you. :D

This is what happens when you free up salary cap room from your biggest star's retirement...

SKT now can look at which player/s will be their strongest and then pay them with quite a fair chunk of change.

Just because SKT1 looks incredibly strong, I will predict they won't even make it to the playoffs. The most notable thing about the players who were once at the top, is people can only talk about what they used to do. Do you remember Nestea? He doesn't do anything conversation worthy anymore, so when people mention Nestea, it's always about the past. I would say that Soulkey, PartinG, Rain, and whoever else they have will not be a threat in proleague at all, if someone asked me my predictions.

My prediction for this proleague is Incredible Miracle. Incredible Miracle's entire team consists of players who have not shown the best results as of late, and I hold those players to be the most eminent threat in all team leagues. Players like Yoda, Squirtle, Liquid.HerO (since he will be playing with them), KangHo and ByuL are the players I will look out to be legend killers this proleague.

Yes, dream teams can be misleading. Nobody last year considered STX a real contender with only Bogus/Innovation the only recognizable name. They went from a 4-10 record at the end of Round 2 to eventual champions with the maturation of players like Dear, Trap, Hyvaa, and a race-changing Classic.

WTF 2 hours without my eyes sticking to the computer screen and world this is what you come up with? HOLY @#%! Sad that Woongjin disbanded, but it's a great thing to see sOs and Soulkey in Proleague again.

Also, with Maru gone, Prime's line-up looks devastated. Who are they gonna put out as ace? Creator? No offense, but with Creator's form in HotS he'll get absolutely crushed. Speaking of Aces, who's Samsung gonna put out as Ace, now with JangBi gone? I don't think either Stork or RorO can handle it as this point.

You're seriously comparing someone of Nestea's age and shitty mechanics to Rain/Soulkey? No way in hell SKT1 misses the playoffs with that roster. Your prediction's so bad it almost has to be trolling... 'no threat at all' my ass..

He also forgot that SKT has classic, which was one of the main reasons why stx won last pro league. Also the reason why I did horrible in FPL

Prime pretty much has to pick up someone(s) to help their proleague lineup.

I think RorO will be Samsung's ace until Stork starts wrecking face.

Rain just won the Hot6ix tournament thing with amazing players in it. And PartinG won the Red Bull thingiemajig the other week? Basically, they're still posting results - and very recently.

And I will agree with anything you say that's good about IM's chances. Gogo TL-IM HerO! And you've gotta love Squirtle.

Rain just won the GSL Hot6ix Cup, PartinG won RBG NYC, Soulkey won WCG. All 3 of them won a major championship within the past month. Past? All 3 of them proved time and time again their relevance in the scene.

Unfortunately, after this comment, it looks like no one will ask your predictions now

Rain just won the Hot6ix tournament thing with amazing players in it. And PartinG won the Red Bull thingiemajig the other week? Basically, they're still posting results - and very recently.

And I will agree with anything you say that's good about IM's chances. Gogo TL-IM HerO! And you've gotta love Squirtle.

Parting is really good at PvP so he should do well in PvProleague.

Oh SHIT yes. Now I don't have to balance my love for SKT with my love for Soulkey.


SKT about to stand for SoulKey Team.

With Prime weakened, maybe this sets the stage for a Prime-SouL partnership that would reunite Kal with his old team as well as bring Dear and Trap back to Proleague.

The number of good KR Ps greatly outnumber the terrans and zergs... Especially with the current meta being more P dominated, I don't see how it won't be PvProleague.

As a Red Sox and (lesser ) KT fan, I think the comparison is quite apt really.

I hope Prime can come together, though - Byun has been streaming a fair amount lately, and I think Creator still has some fight in him. They just need to get some other players and get growing again.

(P)Rain 's gonna have a super beastly PvZ and (Z)Soulkey 's gonna have an almost unbeatable ZvP.(P)PartinG, (T)FanTaSy, (Z)soO and the rest are better supports too. No need to predict who's going to win it all.

TRANSLATION:

I know it's late, but thank you to everybody that wished me a happy birthday. I've recently moved to SK, and I'm going to keep working hard so I can continue to show good matches in the future, but I think that I'll never be able to forget my Coach for the last 5 years who has always raised and cared for me with a lot of love.

Coach, I want to thank you so much for always helping me and I feel sorry that all I ever did was be helped by you.

I missed my team-mates when I was still at Woongjin, and now I think I'm going to miss them even more.

To my fans, thank you for taking care of me so diligently. Now that I'm at SK, it seems like the Coaches and Players are all good, and they all seem very kind. I think it'll be easy to adjust. I'm going to adjust well, and show you my exploits in Proleague as part of SKT T1, so please keep cheering for me ~^^

That's because Oov shows them there is no hope once the power of Terran is unlocked. Coach Oov is going to wipe the league clean with his strategies and fantasy's hands.

I think it will happen next year. (Dec 2014 Proleague)

The Korean scene still has a few too many teams and has some more condensing to do. Once they get down to 8-10, then a Proleague-GSTL cooperation makes a lot more sense for both businesses. For now though, they both will still see more profit in it going alone, if just to sustain their brands.

Just because SKT1 looks incredibly strong, I will predict they won't even make it to the playoffs. The most notable thing about the players who were once at the top, is people can only talk about what they used to do. Do you remember Nestea? He doesn't do anything conversation worthy anymore, so when people mention Nestea, it's always about the past. I would say that Soulkey, PartinG, Rain, and whoever else they have will not be a threat in proleague at all, if someone asked me my predictions.

My prediction for this proleague is Incredible Miracle. Incredible Miracle's entire team consists of players who have not shown the best results as of late, and I hold those players to be the most eminent threat in all team leagues. Players like Yoda, Squirtle, Liquid.HerO (since he will be playing with them), KangHo and ByuL are the players I will look out to be legend killers this proleague.


Ha. Hahaha. Hahahahahahaha! Oh you detractors... 1/3 of the top 10 players in the world are gathered on 1 team! It's all over for those poor souls who dare oppose them...


To be fair they did underachieve to a certain extent last year.


I dont think that will happen again. Since pvp is the key matchup right now in sc2 i dont think they will lack in that department.

Damn, this is really sad, now both the finalist teams of last season's Pro League are gone, damn. I'm glad Soulkey found a new home, he deserves to be on a good team, but I just hoped it would be one other then SKT1, they already have such a strong lineup, I don't see how they can't pull together a win this season.

I'm still confused why KT doesn't pick up more of the high-caliber players (except Ty). SKT keeps grabbing them all lol.

I know where you are coming from, but in fairness I think people have just already accepted the death of Woongjin a long time ago.

Seems like the scene has shifted away from people cheering for one team and watching rookies grow, to people who just want to see which ever player is performing well that month get drafted to create some dream team of their favorites. Pretty lame if you ask me, no team rivalries what so ever.

We already grieved for Woongjin when they announced they weren't joining Proleague again, it was pretty clear the team was disbanding at that point.

SKT1 Zergs aren't really that bad...

Soo made it deep in SC2 tournaments (and even BW tournaments, placing semi-finals)
S2 always did well in BW proleague
GoRush won an OSL
JulyZerg was a golden mouse winner

Classifying player's ability based on one tournament is silly. Regardless of whether they're Code S/A/B a Flash, Baby, Zest, Stats, CH, Puzzle lineup is still going to be more than competitive with preparation. They came 2nd in the regular season this year, without Baby. Furthermore, KT has always performed way better in team leagues than individual (aside from Flash) and to say they're 'just' code A koreans like there will be a massive gulf between them and Code S regulars makes no sense. With STX and Stars gone KT are either the 2nd or 3rd seed depending on how much you love Jin Air's additions.

Also if you're going to do the caliber thing Flash is clearly S. 3 consecutive Ro16's (Group of Death regular) and the best record in proleague ahead of Innovation/Rain/Soulkey etc. Zest was also 7th overall.

How is it that SKT is pouring $$ and KT is just several Code A level koreans with maybe Flash on top (not sure if at this point he is Code A calliber or Code S).

Classifying player's ability based on one tournament is silly. Regardless of whether they're Code S/A/B a Flash, Baby, Zest, Stats, CH, Puzzle lineup is still going to be more than competitive with preparation. They came 2nd in the regular season this year, without Baby. Furthermore, KT has always performed way better in team leagues than individual (aside from Flash) and to say they're 'just' code A koreans like there will be a massive gulf between them and Code S regulars makes no sense. With STX and Stars gone KT are either the 2nd or 3rd seed depending on how much you love Jin Air's additions.

Also if you're going to do the caliber thing Flash is clearly S. 3 consecutive Ro16's (Group of Death regular) and the best record in proleague ahead of Innovation/Rain/Soulkey etc. Zest was also 7th overall.

who's Baby ? someone educate me please .. you have my thanks

Baby = TY

Badass terran formerly in Team 8/JinAir

E: OH OH, was that a joke? ~_~

if its the first one to me yes it was a joke .. but i seriously did not know who was Baby lol

So their lineup is going to be...

Rain, Parting, Soulkey, Fantasy, soO

S2 always did well in BW proleague
GoRush won an OSL
JulyZerg was a golden mouse winner


GoRush won MSL and WCGC, not OSL but both prior to joining SK Telecom T1.
Similarly JulyZerg won the first 2 OSLs priori to joining SK Telecom T1 and the third one after joining STX Soul.

All in all it doesn't bode well for Soulkey :D

So sad that Woongjin will be no more... One more team down the drain and into history At least they took care of their players until the end...

SKT is looking like a real beast on paper, but Jin Air is looking quite strong too! Next season should be interesting!

Indeed, that is interesting. I'm convinced he will get a new lucrative coaching position very soon, considering his results. Still, will be interesting to see where he ends up.

I feel like this kind of a shakeup is fine, so long as Starcraft 2 remains an eSport. The teams are trimming their fat (in the form of players, what with all the retiring and stuff), and in turn, the scene is trimming the fat (in the form of "excessive" teams). So while it's sad the teams are dying (I realize Woongjin Corp. doing poorly financially is kinda unrelated, but let's not forget that the Stars were unable to secure another sponsor). Some German said something to a similar effect in one of these threads, and I just wanted to second that opinion. Anyway, onward to Proleague and Code S!

PS, Jin Air and SK Telecom are gonna be so stacked now... I'd ordinarily watch a match either of the played in anyway, but now I'm going to be having heart palpitations whilst doing so!
Like Tinkerbelle, I leave behind a sparkly residue.

So SKT's Proleague lineup is:
Fantasy
Soulkey
Rain
Parting
soO
Classic

That seems pretty hard to beat imho O.O

hmm... too bad it's not a GSTL style league. they could seriously do some major damage in that format. I guess it's more interesting this way, like last when woonjin was lapping the field but lost at the end because of one bad series.

This can only mean SKT will go down in flames. I remember the "dream team" talk last year...

Question, was Woonjin already kicked out of Kespa before this? They weren't going to be in proleague anyways right?

Seems like the scene has shifted away from people cheering for one team and watching rookies grow, to people who just want to see which ever player is performing well that month get drafted to create some dream team of their favorites. Pretty lame if you ask me, no team rivalries what so ever.

The truth is that most people commenting on this never were into BW PL and don't understand the glory that once was. For better or for worse.

It probably has a lot to do with how there was little emphasis on team leagues throughout the history of sc2, so the people who pretty much only followed sc2 focus more on the individual results and pick favorite players from that rather than a team.

There also seem to be a lot more opportunities for individual players to show off their skills.

I guess it´s time to become Team Liquid fan then rather than Prime fan.

Now SK has Rain, Classic, Parting, Soulkey, SoO, Fantasy and guys like Sacsri to back it off. PL is like: let's make this bo 5, maybe someone wants to go to Prime to get more playing time.
Seriously the only thing that can stop them are Problems, if Players get mad because they feel like they need to play more.

Pretty big imo. SKT T1 just got a lot stronger in PL. Sad that Stars folded though but it's been known for a while that they might especially after they went from running a team to personally sponsoring Soulkey and sOs.

this. I never watched much GSTL and only some PL(whatever I could with the time it was on) but much more individual tournaments whether GSL, OSL or WCS.

Plus players who are excellent in teamleagues and have trouble in individual events are not really respected, such as Yonghwa, Sniper (before he won GSL), Super.

Well, not always. Players like MMA and DRG became popular from GSTL success, and Gumiho was pretty popular despite never being particularly successful in individual leagues.

A bit sad about Woongjin. More and more great teams and players of the BW era finding their end in SC2...

Still happy that the most valueable players were able to find new teams. SKT holding strong! Also nice additions for T8/Green Wings.

Team leagues are so important in developing a good scene. When you have just individual leagues, there isn't enough space to allow talent to grow/show. Also with team leagues you see so many strategies develop you wouldn't have seen if people only practiced for individual leagues.
