JEEZUZZZ! God damned Kespa jail!
Seriously, when everyone is trying to save this game by growing the scene, encouraging new teams in PL, encouraging new tournaments, encouraging korean players to go abroad and expand their careers, Kespa seems to be doing everything it can to keep its dictatorship alive inside its own 8x10 prison cell.
Listen to negativeedge, SC is NOT the dominant esport anymore, it is struggling to stay afloat! If you put stuff like this on the map it only helps people retire faster or switch faster to LoL/Dota2!
And the icing on the cake is Rain and fantasy, having played more than 5 years at that team and STILL tied to that team because they were not free agents before? That is some serious bull, especially since most players in KR were moving through direct team transfers, not leaving team as free agent then joining another team.
Kespa needs to seriously get a reality check........they are stopping this game from growing.....
Also 5 years, when the full life of a progamer at the top (proleague) level can sometimes be below that? utter nonsense


Dude... I agree on that 5 years requirement, it's stupid, but saying that Kespa is stopping Starcraft 2 from growing is a bit ( a lot ) exaggerated, i feel like they have been doing a lot for SC2 in the past couple months.


That's the problem there is no little domination by the koreans. They mostly crush everyone, so it's not wealthy for the game cause its killing diversity.
But koreans are the only ones (with fews foreigners) who can step up the game so often, having incredible games to watch and learn.

RorO is retiring. FPL teams are saved.
Nah seriously it's sad, he was a very good Zerg. That weakens Samsung quite a bit too

Shame about RorO despite how much TL isn't much of a fan of him it is a blow to the scene and two more players leaving adds to the wound. Not certain where Reality and TurN will find foreign teams they aren't exactly overflowing with money lately and I suspect they may switch to BW instead. Good to see Stork is still in it at least.

Yeah. Who will be the face of evil and destroy FPL anti-teams?

But yeah, sad to lose such a talented player.

What a shame, i wanted to build my team around RorO and sOs again, salt.

Dammit, Samsung, now you have only Solar, Dear and Stork who is half-coach, that's kinda bad. Well, there is Hurricane, but no second Zerg, 3 mid-tier Protosses and no Terran sucks.
Free playoffs for CJ Entus now.

RorO retires? But who will I put on my FPL anti-team now?

Looking at this line-up, Samsung are really weak right now. Not Prime weak but weak nonetheless. CJ, KT and JAGW now all have a free pass to the play-offs.
Flying on the Jin Air hype plane. Lets go Maru, Rogue, sOs and the handsome CJ herO

I guess after seeing the LotV announcement, they don't have any hope or passion for SC2.

Sad to see them retire.

I hope Samsung picks up another terran for next season of proleague (especially if it goes back to bo7, fingers crossed), or they'll have a hard time, just like this season. Dear, Stork, Solar, Armani/BrAvO isn't exactly the best of lineups. Should lose to Life, Bomber, San, Has, for example.
