I'm sad about CJ Entus losing him though. (Sad about SKT too) | ||

And Im really wondering if they made proper research or if MC/First/Yoda/Stardust told them it´s the Promised Lands. Im pretty sure we´ll see quite a few of these turn into a new Dear. | ||

I'm wondering this too. I've also been think that there are so many good teamless Korean players right now that if they can't find a home then KeSPA might have to go down the whole 8th Team route they had to do after MBCGame HERO, WeMade FOX and Hwaseung Oz all disbanded and see if they can land it a new big sponsor. | ||

I'm afraid that 'foreign team' is a euphemism for 'retire'. | ||

Oh well getting a visa in EU is probably easier, however if everyone goes to EU, next season WCS EU would be significantly more challenging. Unless they can go to NA, with a harder route. | ||

A year of trying your luck in foreign tournaments for a last payday before going for the army might be a motivation for some of them as well. | ||

So, considering that TRUE is technically in Dead Pixels, we now have: DRG Rain PartinG FanTaSy Hydra 4 Code S playoffs level guys and FanTaSy, who can really get them, lol. + There is Myungsik who left KT Rolster as well. TL won't get anyone until TJ retires most likely, Acer will get probably one and outside of those two, noone really seems legit contender. YOE FLASH WOLVES FOR THE RESCUE PLEASE. On less serious note, i hope they're still going to play in SPL. I think the wise move for fantasy is to go to a lesser team that is looking for a terran to play in pro league | ||

He actually says the rules are bad for koreans on foreign teams but he wants to discover new experiences outside of kespa regardless. they want visas to come along with it when they join for that easy money. I have a feeling some broken promises will be made. On September 11 2014 20:37 Tyeshoo wrote: i dont get this. SC2 is mostly well supported just in Korea. Why do the leave from Korea? Travel around the world; chance to participate in easier qualifiers; make more prize money. Only prob is when a lot of them do it and do get their visas. Hellllllo qualifiers. | ||

1. top level kespa players leave for the glorious foreign land 2. few of them get a prestigeous foreign team soon (EG, Liquid, Acer, perhaps Ai) 3. few of them get a noname team a bit later (planetkey, meltdown, NRS...) 4. if they make a flat share even noname-team salary + online cup winnings or only savings + winnings could be enough to live - at least in europe (not on hight standards, but kespa players should be used to little place and those players are searching the adventure, not the money or comfort - at least, if they're saying the truth) 5. with these players not in kespa-teams anymore, free agents in korea have a good chance to get hired by kespa teams again, bringing their experience in and getting exposure 6. koreans living in europe and NA will raise the skill-level in these regions while in korea new players have to be grown to the top level - so the korean-foreign skillgap could become a bit smaller 7. ? 8. profit  | ||
