PartinG has changed his twitter name from SKT1_PartinG to PartinGBigBoy. This is almost always a sign that the player is soon to be switching teams.https://twitter.com/PartinGBigBoy

This still causes issues with BW on these forums and always thinking Black and White versions. Fortunately, it's usually DPP and B2W2 in common parlance, which avoids confusion pretty well. | ||

Seems like it would be fairly close considering Maru but I think ST's lineup these days would be better | ||

Is there really that money moving around in Kespa teams. I always though they had to make cuts when they transferred to starcraft 2, if parting makes that much I can only imagine what flash and co makes. On topic I hope that parting doesn't go for a foreign team it would be shame to lose him from proleague. | ||

And it makes sense that they'd pick up another good player to make up for the loss of Innovation. Kind of weird of him to make hints like this though, considering he doesn't even watch starcraft anymore. I guess he likes the attention. | ||

I wonder where he'll go and practice then, I'm sure many teams would want him as a practice partner. Interesting to see INnoVation and him want different things at this stage of their careers. But then Inno said in that TL interview last year he didn't care about foreign tournaments that much. | ||

Maybe it's a "grass is always greener" thing. Inno looks to kespa and thinks it's better and parting looks to the foreign scene and thinks it better. | ||

Which leads me to the conclusion that PartinG might be pulling out of the SC 2 scene in foreseeable future. | ||

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

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. 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. | ||

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. | ||

Yeah well but I don't think SKT cares particulary much about PartinG's performance outside of Korea, considering the fact that they barely ever send any of their players. | ||

Because I don't see any team capable of supporting such star player. Even though he is known abroad, plays very nice style to watch and is an entertainer  | ||

He was a genuinly good player, made amazing videos, but was still disliked by some community white knights because he cheated when he was 15. I liked the guy, but he got fucked over bigtime at RedBull (I think it was project Dove, Project White Dove or something like that where he was interviewed about this in depth). | ||
