That's the sad part, their rookies DO amount to something, and then get taken up by better (richer) teams

Well, even the ones that got snapped up by other teams (ex. Zoun, DeParture, Salvation) have yet to show anything particularly noteworthy, though at least they are definitely not as bad as the rookies that stayed (Terror, Tangtang). Even Myungsik kinda started sucking once he got on SBENU, which makes me wonder if his Prime results were just luck...

I suppose the question from here on out will be if Creator can have a better post-Prime career than Marineking, who after all did get second in Hot6ix Cup, but nowadays has a Solar-esque SPL record...

It is hard to watch someone or something die slowly, every temporary improvement in their condition sets you up for more crushing despair later.

Still there must always be eight so it will be interesting to see what new life eventually comes to proleague.

Well I will definitely be tuning into tonight's game versus Team 1. I hope Wolf is casting, SC2 historian that he is.

Edit: I guess I should change my flag from ACE to Jin Air soon.

Would love to see TL give it another go in PL. Partnership with Mill/Myi perhaps ?

Might have a higher win rate than Prime if they let TL field Snute for every match.

Oh shit, hopefully Creator joins a big team like KT, CJ, or SKT.

This is getting genuinely sad. The last months we saw Prime getting dismembered one member at a time, with helpless tries at compensating the losses. I think at this point it would be better to just end the team.

Bye bye Prime and Proleague. Proleague is already so stale with 8 teams, and will be gone with 7. Kespa really should have given ESF more support when they left GSTL to join Proleague. Instead they just showed favoritism to Kespa teams, allowing them to freely pick the rosters of ESF teams clean while ESF teams struggled to put food on the table. It was ridiculous for them to let SKT take Zoun or KT to take Life freely (and all the other cases). Some kind of protection is needed for the poor ESF teams.

We've seen with Jin-Air that money can make a team work, and ESF teams never got any money or support that they were promised when they're giving their all to keep Proleague alive. All ESF teams get are penalties and restrictions that prevent their players from playing.

Business Tip: To the teams that potentially will replace Prime, ask for A LOT of money. They need you way more than you need them in order to keep Proleague alive. And ask for the money up front. You can never trust the way Kespa does business.

All in all, good luck Creator. I hope you find a nice foreign team to give you support and opportunities.

Did...my anti just get a lot better?

I guess this is the end for Prime pretty much

. Maybe Axiom+deadpixels combo can fill their place or something.

It's a wonderful irony that Prime today plays SKT from all of the times. Also not sure what is more dead, Prime or passion, as there is not even a LR of that to laugh at their cruel destiny.

I never really got the creator buzz myself - he has been on my anti's forever and I've never really regretted it except one season. I get that he had a brief flare in 2012 but it was mostly just weekend foreign tournaments; there were plenty of players who looked way better doing those including Polt; MC; Taeja; ForGG; Life... he never stood out to me as anything much more than a 'good' player, possibly peaking in the top 10 at one point.
