Is FanTaSy retiring? Hope he tries to get a fresh start on another team and can revitalize himself. I'm sooo excited to see Rain on a foreign team though! :D | ||

Looks like Zest is going to be the new Rain in Korea, as for Rain I would be the happiest if he just retires. You are a strange person ... | ||

But on a second thought, if you look at the videos on their channel and Proleague broadcasts, Rain often hangs out with PartinG and they're both fun and outgoing personalities (the rest of the team is cool too but seems a bit more quiet), so maybe they have similar reasons, maybe as PartinG said they really just want to have fun. And with Proleague and GSL taking most of their time, they can't really go to all those international events. And who knows, maybe Kespa will make up their mind and allow a foreign team to compete which will happen to have players like PartinG and Rain ![]() As to what team will sign them, Acer looks good currently and they seem to have fun atmosphere, so I guess it would suit them. Evil Geniuses would be a good choice as well I guess, some great teammates for Jaedong, who's apparently getting better again since he just won WEC. mYinsanity sounds good too but I'm not sure how it looks on the inside. Team Liquid is always nice but didn't someone say that they prefer to sign like up and rising players, not already stars? Anyway, I kinda hope they'll end up in the same team because I think they get along quite well. I wonder what will happen with Fantasy. He didn't seem to feel very well in the team, he looked very shy and all but maybe that's just an impression. | ||

I guess he heard he was #1 on PR and decided he had achieved everything he wanted. Time to go rake in EZ foreign money. Still surprised they would all leave looking for foreign teams with the new WCS rules being introduced. | ||
