You mean like KT? They are pretty cool.

I think that's the only team that would be a complete sell out. Also, you have a teammate that removed his chin. That's pretty creepy.

there can only be one chin unfortunately

I hope they pick up some Terrans and actually play them now. They were good, but we need more Terrans.

Having said this, SKT is probably going to take a hit in popularity.

What are you talking about?! Koreans are going for ez foreign money! They're bad for everyone! We mùst banish them from esports forever! They're terking foreigner jerbs!


/sarcasm


Actually I totally agree with this, I hope all the Korean talent goes to the foreign teams and then they continue to wreck the international scene.

Liquid needs to pick one these guys up, if possible. I'm guessing Nazgul has refrained from hiring new players for a while now since he knew this opportunity would arise. Nazgul is actually so smart.

By the way, watching Fantasy stream, he doesn't seem like the kind of Terran that would float 1000 minerals and 500 gas during fights. He's really improved compared to early in his SC2 career, no?

Coupled with the WCS changes this seems like a bad choice. Or maybe they just wanna play "smaller" foreign tournaments like Dreamhack etc and prefer it over playing in Proleague.

Still too many free agents. I do think they'll be picked up, but it might need a new team. Gogo someone rich? :D

Always rooted against SKT from the BW days, but they have always provided quite the entertainment. Especially Fantasy who I was hoping would rise to relevance in SC2 like the days of old. I'm sure SKT will reload and still be quite formidable going forward but it will be different. The subtraction of Fantasy (who never played) and PartinG shouldn't be too bad, but Rain was their leader and Ace player. Should be interesting to see who between Soulkey and SoO steps up to become their new face (guessing the latter). Hope all 3 enjoy their new adventures and I will miss rooting against them and the Goliath that is SKT in Proleague. Excited to see them in overseas tournaments and competing all over the world!

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

well yes, they are, no one knows but being out of SKT giving the rumour a higher possibility of happening. Other thing is that we are getting terrans who have never streamed on afreeca with 100 wins in PL. Fantasy and leta are the only two that come to mind considering other options that aren't possible (aka no flash for ex lol). Leta obviously more likely because of his current position but there's still fantasy as a possibility.

With all the Acer and TL being mentioned I had to think of Acer buying all the Koreans for a year now and go for PL next year and win it. That PR Bomb they would get could be worth it XD
