Again, I repeat, wtf myungsik? You really going to be like that?
a team without a god damn sponsor? Welcome to Korea, Prime doesnt have any sponsors either. Anyone who is not on KeSPA is struggling to tread water right now. IM went down for the same reason. KeSPA has the korean sponsors and the other Korean teams don't appeal enough to the foreign scene to gain foreign sponsors. Axiom focused on the foreign scene because we saw it was the only way to fiscally survive, which is why we have plenty of active sponsors now and the other teams don't. If you are not a part of OG KeSPA and have people in your corner whose sole job it is to get you financing, it's a nightmare over there right now. Why do you think I'm so concerned about the Korean scene at the moment? Teams are running into financial crisis' in a hypercompetitive environment and now they can't even send their players abroad to compete in WCS for Blizzards money either. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/starcraft-2/463991-prime-has-a-new-main-sponsor-ktcWhat happened to this?
Think about the expenses of a team. Do you think one sponsor is enough to keep a team-house, all the related expenses AND pay salaries? Hint: it isnt. If they still have that sponsor, its likely that is paying for the house and nothing much else.

Frankly I don't believe that (at least not right now). I dont see any situation where Myungsik leaves for Startale if Myungsik was getting a salary (and we know based on what Legend said on Twitter today that Startale has not acquired a new sponsor) I don't see how they can afford it unless their sponsor is giving them an obscene amount of money every month. Also we are assuming that Prime still has that sponsor. A lot of KR teams are listed as having sponsors they no longer have.

you cant spell prime without R I P

lolwhat that's like the less understandable move of SC2's history isn't it?
|
Beats startale in ace match. Proceeds to turncoat to startale lol.

Damn it ! This might be the death of Prime... And maybe the return of ST.

Is StarTale even part of KeSPA? the reason why they could not compete under "StarTale" name and had to partner up with IM is because they weren't. Does anyone know?
Also, Prime looks on downfall again, but they crawled back from worse before

You'd have to think they wouldn't have signed him if that were the case. Would be rather silly otherwise.

lmao wtf. Foster rising talent or pick up DRG or something. This is kinda lame for both parties tbh. Zoun is the future of Prime anyways
