Maybe he was just tired of losing to soO constantly

But if this is the case I can only see Acer, TL or EG being able to afford him.

The only occasion when PartinG thinks something is better is when he looks in a mirror tho.

8284k per month for 8 months, it's big enough equivalent to winning a few tourneys. However since he probably never win any these days, they couldn't offer him similar package. Kespa teams probably has higher expectation for the players, you dont win any tourneys, we'll cut your salary off.

Even though he did well enough in proleague.

In my opinion PartinG doesn't fit into a foreign team at all and he should not go there since it won't benefit his results. There are only few Koreans - Polt, Tajea and Hyun - who maintained their skill even after switching to the foreign scene. Everyone else was not able to compete with the best players sooner or later. And I am pretty sure PartinG knows this.
Which leads me to the conclusion that PartinG might be pulling out of the SC 2 scene in foreseeable future.

And by "any tourneys" you mean GSL, right?

Well GSL and other major tournaments, be it local or abroad. His last major win was RBG new york against SoS, and 2nd place at 2014 GSL Global Championship losing to Zest. That was end of 2013 and beginning of 2014. Since then he never won anything and if i'm not mistaken he couldn't past Ro16 on GSL in 2014.

So his result was probably not good enough in 2014 to SKT eyes.

The main difference is being able to play in Korean server. Which people like Polt, Violet, Mc, Stardust, Jjakji can't do. On the other hand Innovation, Taeja and Jaedong live in Korea, so they are able to do so. Inno and Taeja still keep up to their standard. The other 'foreigner' koreans don't seem strong enough these days.

If Parting joined foreign team, but still live in korea, then he can maintain his skill and even stay at GSL like Inno did. The only thing he missed is proleague.

I think Parting has always been an interesting character that adds nicely to the whole Korean sc2 scene. GSL and proleague would be less interesting without him.
