For all those of you who are just now reading this post here are the details I must stress to you: *Wayi spider is backed by a game company. *Flash Wolves is backed by *Right now there is no way for a pro gamer to obtain an athlete's visa in Taiwan. *All foreigners who have entered Taiwan to compete in TeSL (including yoeFWSan) have used visitor visas. Visitor visas require a competitor to leave within 90 days of entering the country unless they are studying at a university in Taiwan (in which case they leave within 90 days of the end of the semester). *Presently there is no way to cast TeSL in English with a live, in-game observer position (although that may change this summer, and I will to my best to provide it for you guys.).
How has Sase been able to stay in Taiwan for so long? he's been there for over a year.

So Leenock is going to compete in TeSL?
Edit: Apparently he is

My dream of July, Leenock and Bravo all on one team seems so far away now.

How can you guys quote BreAKerTV without asking him who Flash Wolves is backed by?
|
Leenock is going to Taiwan in April or after the first season of GSL to play in tesl
|
!!! Leenock :D
such a sick pick-up for WW
Also, huh, it's awesome to see the Tawainese community branching out to Korean players!

Is Flash Wolves that team that also have San? I thought the TeSL was essentially over, is there still a big SC2 scene in Taiwan after that loss?

TeSL is just no longer a team league, it's an individual league now, and more regular than ever. It's even giving out WCS points in 2014.
Yes, Flash Wolves have San and Leenock, as well as basically all of the best Taiwanese players except Sen. Apparently they were taken over by a pretty big corporation (Wanin Bank - it says mothafuckin BANK, not sure exactly what they are though) so they they're well off.

Well according to my translator (shoutout to kupon3ss) Leenock is expected to go to Taiwan in April/May to play in TeSL so doesn't seem that dead.

Yoe Flash Wolves is backed by Wanin International. Their Chinese website is the following: http://www.waninbank.com.tw/About.aspx
There is "bank" in the url (and I think liquidpedia called it Wanin Bank) but it is not really one of those traditional banks. It is a company specialized in cloud service and internet transaction in Taiwan. Yoe Card "遊e卡" is actually a popular game point card that the company sells and they tagged it to the pro-teams they sponsors. Pretty smart move I think.

Damn I hoped Leenock joining Prime :-(

I'd argue you are ignorant for saying otherwise. I invite them to prove me wrong, but if we go with the facts.. the facts would support my argument that they are not a reliable investment and surely don't have as much potential/results as many other koreans who are looking for teams.
Daisy has 47% winrate according to his TL profile, and most of his career has been in Europe which means weaker competition than the koreans. Check is better with a 53% wr and mostly korean tournaments but thats not incredibly impressive. We also haven't seen great results from Daisy at any point really, and Check not for since earlier GSL days.
In short, I just don't see it. Idk why I even respond to you, but I felt like it.
