I'll never forget the level of play he displayed at wcs season 3 finals. It was the highest level of play at the time since 2012 taeja, and 2011 mvp, maybe even surpassing the latters.

Really really really good news, this guys deserve to be in a top team, with good life/training conditions he can become the #1 protoss again.

Plus SGK really seems an happy team atm, players seem to enjoy their life and the game, perfect environment for Dear to make a huge come back on the scene.

Wow. Should have happened sooner, but I guessed he didn't want to join a foreign team again.
Proleague endings have a positive side too.

I don't get why more players don't go aboard for a good contract and come home after their skills degrade.
Patience, Yoda, and even Jjakji kind of faded in skill compared to foreigners. People love to hold Polt and MC as examples, even JD to a degree. Polt was at Seoul University and MC has a stronger support system than most foreign Koreans. Jaedong is a BW legend that is used to handling things more solitary.

There's tons of progamers that keep saying Cure is top 3 Terran and he just hasn't had his breakout performance yet. Reality just made Code S though, so that's a point for him

I hope more teamless Koreans also find teams, people like Center, Symbol, Trap, Ragnarok, Squirtle.

Great. So glad such a good player, who was despised as "another patch protoss who won WCS out of sheer luck and imbalance", could find a solid team and will shut all those mouths up by making a deep GSL run and excellent Proleague performances.

Apparently he's been on Samsung for a while but they wanted to wait to reveal because Dear couldn't have played for them in Proleague this season any ways.

Anyone with half a brain could tell from the way Dear played around WCS KR Season 3 that he wasn't just a "patchtoss". He picked apart his opponents very thoroughly and without abusing a single unit or strategy like many other players that typically rapidly rise after a buff.

When it comes to talking about Protoss imbalance, most people even gifted with a brain lose more than a half of it.

Dafuq!? Samsung never gets any FA players. I think the only other time a significant player chose to go there was Shine(Roro went there as part of the disbanding draft). I'm quite surprised they're going to pay someone.

Still would like more terrans though. I would say the vT MU is by far the weakest for the team. While vP is the team's strongest. But still, Dear brings some new strategical play to the team which I like.

Nice! Although I´m wondering what took them so long. He´s been without a team for quite a while now.

If he joins KeSPA he would just be so restricted and honestly pretty sure his skill would take a hit if anything. I think a team like Liquid / Axiom would be soo much better

I really hope Dear comes back with full force so people will stop talking about how great Zest is. Dear's achievements were levels better than Zest's. Dear fell off only because his team disbanded. Zest fell off because the winner's curse. He is a good player, just not as good as people claim he is.

What do you mean his skill would take a hit? Is there a better place for Jaedong to fight his way back to the top but KeSPA?

Really waited for Dear joining Samsung or CJ because other teams are kinda stacked. Samsung is the perfect choise. Team of Stork and JangBi, so nice place for SC2 Top Protoss! Happy for Dear!

I like these awesome pickups, go Dear! Happy that he's back in a strict environment, he already said he was lacking due to the less strict practice regimes on mouz. GOGO :D

That's a pity. He wanted so much to join a foreign team and travel around the world. He said he got bitten by the foreign tournament bug. I guess this will at least help stabilize his career. I'm disappointed that Acer didn't pick him up though.

Good choice from Dear. I'm sure the practice partners will really help him get results. Hopefully he doesnt neglect communication with his foreign fans

The only thing that would take a hit is his easy foreign money. Even that, i dont think he is winning much this year.

If he can keep up his recent form, Dear should be an ace level player on Samsung KHAN.

To not be a 2-race team depending on Reality - who is good, admittedly, but rarely shows up in Proleague - for Terran support?

Dear is the only Protoss who has ever almost convinced me to race change

His playstyle at the WCS S3 GSL and Season Finals was absolutely phenomenal, and exciting.

Congratulations to Dear, i am very happy for him. Very solid and powerfull protoss.
He deserved a new home in Korea, he is definitely not done showing us good games in proleague and GSL Code A/S.
I think he has it in him to win another championship, or at least reach RO4 in the near future.

Was very sorry to hear about the whole mousesports debacle, being my favorite team i hoped they'd take good care of him and make some sort of expansion in Korea, but apparently they had other plans.

Dear fighting!!!!

It feels like forever since he left mousesports, so glad he's found a new team! Looking at his recent qualifiers, he has been knocked out repeatedly by Solar and Armani, so having them as practice partners ought to do wonders for his play! So excited!

Yea, because being 2 race team was so bad for KT Rolster and SKT Telecom T1

Mark my words, 2015 will be a much better year for Terran than 2014. Especially if LotV comes earlier than we were expecting and finally gives Terran a decent lategame.
