He was originally from SKT, wasn't he? Hope he can re-settle quickly.

Impact is incredibly talented, he'll be fielded every now and then. They found space to get Sorry exposure in the last 2 rounds and Impact is better developed.

So what does this mean for the Axiom team? Impact was one of their front runners....

With all these large-scale competitions returning to Korea, has TB given any insight on
if/when they will join Proleague?! Do they continue to stay strong in the Korean scene?

If not, i am afraid they may be picked apart by the major teams in the region, like Prime has been.
And with MMA partnering with SBENU, i dont think/know if another Axiom-Acer is possible.
What do u guys think?

It means Impact picked up SKT after he left Axiom and the world keeps spinning.

And you know teams can't enter Proleague in the middle of the season right? So Axiom-Acer was never a possibility

Back to where he came from :o

don't imagine we'll see Impact this season in SPL unless there's another major foreign event with a lot of SKT players.

Next season it's a possibility, but unlikely Axiom-Acer since MMA keeps saying this year is his last.

aww yeh , he will have lots of good zergs to learn from and be a strong practice partner.

huge step up from where he was before, now he will have a great training environment , professional backing and good players to train with.
Just have to hope it doesn't overwhelm him.
