Today, we are very pleased to announce the aquistion of Korean zerg player Kim "Soulkey" Min Chul to our Starcraft 2 team. Soulkey is one of the most respected and well-rounded players currently in SCII, recently departing Korean powerhouse team SKT T1.

Soulkey boast's a bunch of achievements in his Starcraft history inlcuding last years win at the World Cyber Games in China and most famously his WCS GSL Korea win, in which he recovered from 3-0 down to take the title!


This is also good news for international Soulkey fans as you'll be seeing alot more of him at European and North American events in 2015.



Quote from Craig Walker - Director, TCM-Gaming

"It is with great pleasure that we can confirm the signing of Soulkey. Kim has shown that he is one of the most consistent players around right now, and we feel that with our support we can propel him into competing on a global scale for 2015, by ensuring he can play outside of Korea.

The recent visa problems that have struck the Starcraft scene meant that we needed to reconsider our current plan for Starcraft and re-strategise for the new year. I am excited to welcome Soulkey as the first step in our new strategy and look forward to continuining our support for the Starcraft community as a whole.

This seems strange given the reason that TCM just parted ways with YoDa and First.
Reassuring for Soulkey to be back with a team at least.

This isn't where I had hoped for SK to go at all, but good luck to him and TCM I suppose.

I kinda dislike this. He sure said he wanted to attend more international tourneys, but really I'll miss him in Proleague

This is intriguing more than anything. TCM just got rid of Yoda and First because of the new region lock, now they sign Soulkey? I'm not entirely sure what the difference in circumstance is here.

Glad to see him on a legit team at least.
Flying on the Jin Air hype plane. Lets go Maru, Rogue, sOs and the handsome CJ herO
