EG no longer seems interested in SC2, unless they have a chance at a huge name like Flash or Fantasy.

But yeah, MarineKing and DRG are definitely the two hottest free agents at the moment.

Marinrking and DRG are definately in EGs boat for that.

MK and DRG don't have anywhere near as much value as a Flash or Jaedong or Bisu or Stork or Fantasy. And EG are probably only interested in players with names as big as those right now.
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

Lol, probably 100% of SC2 know of DRG and MKP. Maybe least the half know who is Bisu or Fantasy.

Yeah, Jin Air is surely a team that will keep sending Marineking to foreign tournaments like he wants, right?

Yeah Prince/King combo would be cool, its just that Jin Air is already so stacked that it would only mean that the terran combo would have to compete... Probably resulting in either seeing only the one or the other.

C'mon you know what I meant. MKP is emblematic for the terran race since 2010. Everyone who has look at the competitive scene just a bit know him. and DRG is the MKP for zerg.
Bisu on the other hand is a total nobody for people who didn't watch BW. Fantasy almost never plays en SPL these day too so he's not that much popular for sc2 only people. Even Stork is more of a player only known by the elite.

LOL

at 99.99% he will not join another kespa team, he said he want to win major foreign tournaments again and be a top player again

Prime on facebook

Today marks the end of an awesome ride as Lee Jung Hoon (이정훈), aka MarineKingPrime, leaves the team.
He has only one or two year before entering the military and wants to try something different for the time he has left as a pro-gamer.

Here is what GerrardPrime said about it : "For about 4 years, he did his best for the team, he trusted the team and i'm so thankful to him. PRIME could exist thanks to MarineKing. I wish we could do his new challenge together, but there was no way to hold him back as he sacrificed so much for the team, for such a long time. I hope he can reach new heights with the new change, i will always support MarineKing and PRIME will try hard to be worthy of making him come back."

MKP intends to find a new a team that will help him enter tournaments easily.

emmmmmm kääiiiiiii peeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!

It's the best thing for him to happen, because he isn't on a level with the top Code S Koreans anymore. And now he can pick a team that allows him to rape foreigners and - as you say - maybe become a champion of something again.

Not on the level of Code S? He was one of the best Terrans in proleague and barely didn't make it into code S losing to 2 people who advanced to Code S! You are clearly salty and jealous of real skill.

You are mistaken; he barely didn't make it into Code A and slipped back into Code B.

Nobody gives fuck about Stork or Fantasy other than the korean scene though. DRG speaks way better english than those two and is much well known to the foreign scene.

He lost vs two players that are now in code S, the qualifiers he played ended up being a code s group (effort, avenge)
Hes obviously code s material just based on his overall performance. Not sure why anyone thinks he's not good, he is an icon of SC2 and forever a part of its history.
