To be honest the rationales given in the article smell like bullshit, especially Fantasy who I'm sure would've seen a huge salary cut if he stayed on SKT. But I am shocked about Rain.

Wouldn't be scared of SKT1 having financial issues or the team having internal problems. Just seems like the case of the three players desiring to look beyond Korea and join a foreign team for the experience.

That doesn't look great with Rain and PartinG missing.


Is there still a KeSPA rookie draft?

HAHAAH Im loving this.. SKT fans were already talkin shit about how they were going to be adding Bogus to their line up and instead they lose the very face of SKT along with two of their best three players. RIP SKT.

It looks better than several of the other Kespa teams. In a Bo5 format Dark/Classic/soO/Soulkey is still one of the strongest lineups in Proleague

albeit a bit racially one dimensional

Rain leaving is surprising but not Parting and Fantasy. Parting can get easy money from foreign tournaments and Fantasy has been rumoured to be retiring for such a long time prior to PL finals. He's likely going to play in this seeing everything fit what Love said:

quite a gamble by FanTaSy, he hasn't done much on SC2, I wonder who will be willing to pay him as much as SKT did


Fantasy should go back BW like bisu. Read from somewhere bisu is making like 20k a month from streaming afreeca or some shit.

yes, Bisu is making ridiculous bank on Afreeca and streams on a daily basis. Imagine if Fantasy starts streaming, I'm sure he'll make more than what he was making on SKT in SCII.

Rumors of Fantasy retiring are only rumors though. His twitter is sc2fantasy.. oh yeah and he's streaming later

If the lineup stays like that i would bet that they won't make playoffs.

Maybe Rain and PartinG looked over at MC and Hyunn sitting at the top two WCS rankings (and earning lots of prize money) and then realized that it doesn't make sense to stay in Korea where only the top player gets significant tournament money and you have to compete with the best of the best just to survive the round of 16. PartinG was one win away from the round of 8 after beating Maru 2-1 and going 1-1 with Innovation. That's a pretty crazy group for the round of 16.
