This must be one of the most turbulent years in eSports as of yet. Good luck to Super, though! Show us what you got in the new roster!

Interesting. Hope he sees some play.

Last year in Proleague he had a slightly worse record than all of Flash, Zest, TY and Stats. This year he started out well, then he dropped a bit, lost in Code A vs Flash. Meanwhile TY looked pretty good against Trap in the only game he played in Proleague in round 2. It's hard to say where Super is at if you compare them.

But is he as cool as the mafia zerg?

It can't be. He doesn't have a hitman with him.

Rich get richer. KT's protoss depth is ridiculous. Looking at their current lineup, seems as if a solid backup T to groom for a future role would have been more useful, or even another viable Z now that Action is retired. Having that extra depth can be very advantageous, especially in the season ending grand finals where you need 6 viable starters. Even if it's already addressing a strength, don't see any downside to this and some definite potential upside.

Yeah I definitely think Stats is better but he also has his peaks and valleys. I think Super is a viable replacement for Stats should he go into a slump

Bye bye TY, First, Believe, they now will NEVER got a game in Proleague
|
While I do think Super is a rather good player with some untapped potential, I doubt he will see play in Bo5 format of Proleague. If TY almost never gets a shot in the rotation, I don't think Super will either.
So he'll be like First, I guess. Should be great for his solo tournaments though, with all those excellent practice partners. Good news for Super; but shouldn't change much for KT.

afaik Belive wasn't even listed in the roster for Round 2

KT is a team i wud join for sure
|
Him joining doesn't make that much sense especially since they already have First
|
I'm struggling to see what Super specifically brings to the table for KT. They have plenty of Protoss to field and practice with. He's not a particular specialist in any one matchup. And je's not really so far above the existing B-squad to get a lot of play time. Why did KT decide that they needed Super?
