Dreams are free I guess

There probably isn't enough half-decent teamless players around to make an 8th team now is there?


Probably not but if Kespa showed the initiative they could restructure the existing teams to make a balanced 8th team by taking one player from each of the others

Um... Translation please?


nothing special. Freecs` coach says thank you to Mr Chae, Seo Soogil (CEO of Afreeca) and former boss of KeSPA.

That would be nice but a team made up of Koreans on foreign teams is a bit more realistic. So JD, the TL dudes, Patience etc.
I Protoss winner, could it be?

Well KeSPA was only debating 6 or 7, so they probably won't look into it. That said, they could build a team around DRG, Symbol, PartinG, HyuN, maybe get MC out of retirement with some money, and add some amateurs who play in every qualifier.

Run it through google translator and enjoy the fact that Afreeca Freecs translates to African Prix.

Yeah I don't see it happening, just wondering if it would even be possible.

I guess there is enough, especially if people like TRUE, Patience or Soulkey were to just partner with the team.

It would definitely have been possible if they tried. I guess maybe the problem is that KeSPA doesn't want to sponsor a team by themselves and other sponsors in Korea aren't interested?

I think we shouldn't include polt and hydra so we can see a team perform worse than prime.

That would suck for the existing teams though. Not to mention the logistics of establishing a new team.
