Well, the more I think about it, with soO, Soulkey and Classic plus almost certainly Innovation now, they are still a playoff team.

Yeah, I'm not really worried about SKT, they still got 4 strong players and overall a good bench.

I'm just wondering where Fantasy will end up.

I worry for Rain here. Parting is a much more attractive prospect than Rain, and I'm not sure there are teams available for both.


how so?
Rain is the more succesful player as of late

Prime has their arms wide open


Prime has their empty wallet wide open as well

Prime got players salaries for the first time in always, they are richer than ever


You're telling me MKP signed with MVP cause of passion? wow.

No one probably wants to say this, but I am guessing $$ is the issue?

Shocking news in any case. SKT is one of those Korean conglomerate, iirc.

I guess it's more about foreign tournaments, SKT wasn't sending their players to the foreign tournaments at all.

The strenght of a lot of teams suddenly changed a lot.
I can only hope somebody goes to JinAir, Axiom or Liquid!

To all the haters: you deserve to witness many, many more Serral victories, worthy of the godlike player he is.

I wonder what the reason could be? Rain being the biggest shocker, I mean certainly SKT had enough money to retain him? What happened during negotiations?

Guess Bogus to SKT now that he has returned from foreign team.

This is really mistirious. I mean Rain is doing just soooo well atm, i can't see any good reasson except the non-particitipation in foreing tournaments from SKT so far, so i guess he wants to play at some world wide tournies.

I figured it out.

Liquid is going for the epic move of the year. They come to an agreement with DeadPixels.

Thet sign Innovation, Rain, Parting, Fantasy, Taeja becomes plYer/coach, they open a teamhouse in Korea and all of a sudden are THE topdog in the scene. Makes sense!

Parting doesn't seem like a Liquid player. He's more of an EG type. On the other hand, Rain would be a perfect fit on Liquid. As for Fantasy, well Taeja is retiring at the end of the year so...

No one wants to stay in Korea. Completely understandable.

How ironic it would be if more Koreans than ever leave for WCS EU and AM, completely backfiring the region-lock idea.


Region lock forces people without visas to stay in Korea. Makes it more competitive, thus enticing players who can get visas to exit. Cyclic backfiring?

Rain? Holy shit?!

edit: Liquid`Rain would sound good, but I doubt TL can offer a salary close to the SKT was giving him.

Probably has to do with SKTs stuborness to not send players overseas.
