I wonder if this spell great things for the entire ROOT house. Hydra brings a ton of knowledge about how KeSPA runs their training and team houses. I hope they implement some of these into the house.

It says he is going to live in the ROOT house which is in USA so I don't see any issues with him participating in WCS NA

If they're moving him into the house, I'd imagine they're already working on the necessary paperwork.

Living in the US for 3 months at a time on a visa waiver or visitor visa doesn't let you play in WCS AM though (not to mention you're not supposed to be "working" on such a visit). Can Catz really secure an athlete visa for him?

Sick pick-up. Well done CatZ and ROOT. Really hoping for an Acer Teamstory Cup Season 4. The foreign scene needs a premier team league.

I don't think that is too far-fetched, should be another ~5-6 months until WCS 2015 starts, right?

It seems highly illogical and unlikely, but so is everything that has ever succeeded for ROOT. So while I'm doubtful, I will not push it out of the realm of possibility.

Still, I imagine there's a lot of paperwork and fees and lawyers involved. Didn't think ROOT would have the resources to pull that off.

Hydra tweeted that he want to join a foreign team to play WCS EU/NA. Root has offered it for sure or he has no reasons to join then
