Very happy that NightEnd have found a new team though, and I guess SaSe will join Alliance. | ||

Who do they even have left now? they have their academy and Harstem, does Naama still play competitively? Harstem is still kinda relevant (#YearOfHarstem doe). Naama did turn up to assembly where he got his ass kicked 0-6. | ||

+ Show Spoiler [SaSe's statement] + Kim "SaSe" Hammar: I would like to thank Fnatic for this past year, It has been extremely fun to work with you guys. For the first time I had the chance to work closely with one of the main sponsors, MSI Taiwan, which was awesome. Big thanks to SteelSeries and EIZO for being amazing and getting me the equipment I needed as soon as possible. For everyone wondering what’s next for me, I am not done with StarCraft 2 yet! I practise a lot these days and will move back to Sweden in May so I can attend more European events! Finally I would like to thank everyone for your support, it means a lot to me | ||

Wouldn't be entirely out of the realm of possibility. ^^ | ||

Pro gaming athlete visas in Taiwan are non-existent as of present. Thus with the present situation in Taiwan for eSports, it would make more sense for Taiwanese teams to acquire Korean players (cheaper plane tickets).Well SaSe's still competing in the TESL so who knows... a Taiwanese team maybe? Wouldn't be entirely out of the realm of possibility. ^^ This is also the reason why SaSe and yoeFWSan were not able to compete in WCS America Taiwan qualifiers - he was not a permanent resident of Taiwan, he only had a visitor visa. | ||

An arguably more valid reply to your question here, however, would be the fact that I work with all the Chinese-speaking regions of the planet to bring more attention to mainstream western viewers and generate interest. For the longest time, SaSe was in Taiwan. | ||

I still don't understand what you're doing in this thread; your posts make it seem like you're trying to tear SaSe down for whatever undisclosed reason but at the same time they're completely irrelevant and don't belong here. :s | ||

Lots of people think Sen can crush any Korean, but in reality his first non-Taiwanese first-place victory happened at the beginning of January 2014 in Beijing. Not only that, I work for a peripherals company. I have to know who is on top of the game in order to acquire them as sponsored players. | ||

Apparently you just have to know it for yourself, sharing your vast knowledge and wisdom is not part of your job description. Too bad, like Fnatic a lot. | ||

Korea (South)5014 Posts
I'm really happy about SaSe coming back to Europe,its been some time since we didn't see him. I will always remember that time ToD was streaming from the fnatic house and nightend was sick...all the korean wanted to send him to the emergencies and he just wanted to see a doctor, he was freaking out, we were dying of laughter. Regarding Fnatic wouldn't it be time to release Zanster from academy and upgrade him to the main team already ? I mean he's probably the better player of the roster now. New players should be european as fnatic closed down the korean GH, can't wait ! (Also please Fnc give us Terrans....Fnatic.Dayshi ? :D ) oh and by the way weren't we supposed to have an european GH ? I mean it would be pretty good for Talented academy player to be with the A team. | ||

Hopefully some better tier koreans, success and fnatic just belong together. their sc2 division was pretty much irrelevant the past year, but i think koreans are easier and cheaper available nowadays, even without putting up a teamhouse again. | ||

Some of the other europeans are definitely not out of the competitions to be picked up tho players like: hOpe, Mana, or Targa. I strongly disagree. What has he done? | ||
