Wow sick news, I'd love to see Hydra dominate NA! Even better to learn that he is happy with the situation aswell, I was afraid he was gona retire. Fighting!

Woah ROOT with the great pick-ups!

They are looking stronger than ever now that Petraeus and Iaguz have proved their skill.
I used to play random, but for you I play very specifically.

Honestly Root has been my favorite team ever since the MVP exodus. I love every one of their players haha

Oops, forgot about Prime. Can't forget that Sc2 legacy Prime has going for them!

Wow that's cool that Hydra was willing to take a lower salary to join ROOT. Although it was likely influenced by the fact that the foreign team market is kinda bad, I still think Hydra could do really well on ROOT. Catz can give him builds for days

Interesting. How is he going to be able to play in WCS NA after the 2015 changes?


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?


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

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.


Yeah from what I read, getting a athlete visa for viOLet was a very long and expensive process.


Violet was also nearly unprecedented (or was it entirely?), and the paperwork was harder to track down for him, largely because his successes were mainly overseas. I'd imagine those two factors make things somewhat simpler for Hydra (not majorly, but somewhat).

Violet had to get a visa after fucking up. It's pretty incredible he actually did get it in the end. :o
