That would be soemthing else. Though I doubt he's gonna leave TCM already. I mean, he took a very long break this year so he was barely on the team. | ||

Shame they're all gone too along with Flash  But nice to see jjakji go to KT, though should be interesting which of the 2 Terrans will become their figurehead type Terran player, I figure TY most likely. | ||

Soulkey is/was a very good player but after his decision of going full solo endeavors and his fuck-ups with Axiom, I don't see him as a good fit for a PL team. At least not KT, he became too mercenary for that. | ||

Don't get me wrong I love Jjakji but with KT already having a starting four of Life, Zest, Stats, and TY I think it's unlikely that Jjakji will have a big lineup impact. More than likely Jjakji will be relegated to the same spot TY filled last season as the somewhat seldom used 5th player and Super will be a pretty consistent starter for SBENU (unless more roster changes happen) | ||

But honestly this trade is probably a bigger deal for the players than for the teams. Whether it's Super or jjakji, neither of them would play every week on KT. Both of them could get good play time on SBENU. Unless jjakji surprises everyone and truly returns to form in LotV (or the format is changed to bo7 I guess), he'll probably make few appearances. (also KT probably will sign another player at some point since Flash left) | ||

Or maybe it's a delayed apology for taking Life  | ||
