Source : mousesports

Mousesports will officially part ways with Korean StarCraft II player Baek “Dear” Dong Jun. Dear has been the only non-European player in mousesports since he joined the team in late December 2013, but will no longer be a part of the now European-only SC2 division within mouz.
Working with a player like Dear and beeing a part of the Korean StarCraft scene was a great pleasure, however the strengths and tradition of mousesports lie within the European StarCraft scene. Therefore mousesports and Dear have parted ways with immediate effect. Mousesports will reveal first details on how to further strengthen the European scene in the near future.


Markus "mouz MaX" Kemper: "Today we return to our original course and a fully European lineup. Some may consider this as a failure but for us, that's not the case. It was a great, instructive experience to work with an exceptional player like Dear and to be a part of the Korean community. Both sides have invested a great deal of effort to make this coorpoation worthwhile. Within the past weeks we however realized that we couldn't live up to our strenghts and needed to do a change. We truly see us as a European team and we feel it is our duty to support the foreign Starcraft 2 scene in this difficult time. Expect some more news from our team in the near future and watch out for our new fully foreign powerhouse! Our origin, our strenghts, our future!"



Baek "Dear" Dong Jun: "It's sad to be no longer a part of mousesports. It has been a really nice time with their StarCraft family and we all will further improve in the future. Special thanks to HasuObs, who is a very cool guy!"



Mouz roster :
de Dennis "mouz (P)HasuObs" Schneider - Team Captain
de Gabriel "mouz (T)HeRoMaRinE" Segat
si Matic "mouz (Z)Starbuck" Dejac
es Juan "mouz (Z)VortiX" Moreno Durán
es Pedro "mouz (T)LucifroN" Moreno Durán - Inactive

wow this seems pretty sudden. seems weird that they reached out to USA temporarily for Illusion and then Korea for Dear but then dropped them pretty soon after. Both Dear and Illusion were only on the team for about 5 months. Feb-July for Illusion, Dec to April for Dear

Good for Dear, I honestly feel like he needs a stricter practice lifestyle.

This kid is way too talented to be where he is.

Well, that didn't last long. Maybe they wanted him to move to EU and he declined, really wonder what could be the reason for leaving that fast.

I guess that really explains why Dear has been doing poorly lately. Bad team dynamics can really take a toll on your performance

And mouzsports was definitely not a good fit for him... For being one of the deadliest Protosses with crisp execution, he should not have a relaxed foreign team regime to keep his blade sharp.

Thats really weird. I mean at least give it one year, He did not even really become an identity of mousesports in such a short time. Im sure Dear will get a good team.

Mousesports really needs some kind of better marketing because they have no player branding at all imo.

Ha not surprised mouz always seem to drop players which slightly under perform. Hope Dear can get a good team this time!

Now I can't get the image of TB dropping Innovation after last season's fall from Code A out of my head.

Good for Dear, obviously being on an overseas team didn't agree with him. You have to wonder how long he's been sitting on this information, and how much it's affected his performance (on top of the lack of a rigorous schedule).

edit: sucks about the varsity jacket though. I liked that one.
