KT also had a bad Proleague year after he left them, especially Flash. He joins a foreign team, first chance they get WCS is locked and Fantasy and Rain retire... it all adds up. This means we're all fucked, right? I mean... inb4 TCM dies. We're all fucked. MyuNgSiK is the ultimate evil. | ||

And yeah he's a traitor to KT, but well such a player shouldn't have had the honor of being a KT player in the first place | ||

He was on KT for a long time, I think he can live with the KeSPA regime just fine. But he's probably still gonna leave after like 2 months. | ||

I just don't know why you would join it because you rarely get to play in SPL when soo/inno/classic/dark/dream is getting prioritized. Sorry is really good and he rarely gets to play. If he just aims on solo leagues then maybe it's the right choice. He probably wanted something to do in the time there are no leagues in Korea and just took the best offer. PS: Now his first round match in SSL is suddenly a teamkill. | ||

Before all the retirements it WAS possible for the foreign Korean players to band together to form team 8, now though...I hope I'm wrong and they somehow make it work. Lets also hope that Spotv doesn't take Dingit money for Proleague as well. >.< I think KeSPA would have to allow them streaming Proleague only on DingIt, no? | ||

second reaction: Traitor to KT, traitor!! third: well I guess SKT offers him good money, but can he even play on the SPL? I thought SKT already had their final roster tho at this point CJ and Jin Air is in a lack of players I think? so before SPL is announced there would probably be some more team changes and contracts signed and stuff still waiting for Team 8 | ||

Oh, we're just poking fun at the fact that he switched teams 3 times in 7 months. That's a lot for a Korean. I mean, now he's officially been part of half the teams of last year's Proleague season at one point in the last 1 1/2 years. | ||

Sure it must be annoying af to meet him on ladder, but that doesn't make it a bad player, a bad member of a team or even a bad person. You guys really like your pitchforks! Myungsik is a very good player, I was kinda sad when he left KT. I think we didn't know how to make good use of his talent, as as soon as he left he started getting better results. And now the worst KT has him ¬¬ | ||

Eh, when you think about it Barcelona works better as a comparison, at least nowadays. SKT works a lot with young talented players, and they've developed guys into star players more so than buying actual star players. I mean, they compensated Soulkey, PartinG, Rain and Fantasy leaving with INnoVation (who was not in peak form at the time), Billowy and Dream. | ||

KT is more like Bayern Munich. Almost the entire roster KT won Proleague with gave their SC2 debut on the team, and out of the other 3 TY was by far the biggest name. For 2015 they make one big signing, for 2016 some smaller ones. Also one of the biggest icons of each team left recently (Flash-Schweinsteiger). Really, the parallels are strangely fitting. | ||

In terms of mercenary, well how many years has he got left as a progamer? Make the money whilst you can. In terms of football clubs/ SC2 team comparisons, meh, complete and utter waste of time. | ||

Having said that, having a player that can pull off sOs-esque strats and builds will only benefit the team. Let's just hope he latches onto the team ethic oov said they have in place. | ||

I say this as a KT fan, but historically KT is actually well known for buying up talent and watching it falter- kind of like the EG curse jokes. Yellow, nada, reach, goodfriend, chojja, crazy-hydra, baby, life, heck even flash was initially a we made amateur, and especially luxury and forgg who were bought basically cuz they beat flash and won tournaments | ||

Life is pretty much the only guy who was at the top in SC2 when he was picked up by KT, everyone else is more of the "talented/solid/good but not near the top"-variety, even TY. | ||
