This is pretty hype

Also, complaining about evening the playing field, like wut?

Weeeeell, KT has at best the 2nd strongest lineup, so I'm not sure this evened anything. Oh by the way, I like the amount of faith Legend doesn't have in his own players for ace matches.

Oh right, I didn't follow last season that closely, Skt should have been the targets

Life back with the bois is still great tho

Funny news! (Don't know if I'm glad or not yet)
But without Flash nor Life, KT is looking much less interesting now.

Also, the FPL is gonna be fun this season.

Life's problem is proleague is a best of 1, 5 times. Life excells at longer series, best of 1's and best of 3's are not his forte. And you have to think team leagues are more important to KT than individual leagues, plus Afreeca wants someone who'll win a championship. This trade makes perfect sense.
If all men were created equal there would be no reason to declare it.

Afreeca also want someone who's clutch in ace match situations, and Life is pretty clutch.

So again, props to Wolf for calling Life leaving KT months ago.

I'm a fan of anything that makes proleague more competitive, and this trade definitely accomplishes that.

Did Life even have any say in the matter? looks more like organizations are balancing out power to make the league more competitive which is good. But what do the players want?

Well I assume he was asked about it and had to sign a contract to make the trade binding. I'm sure Life is okay with going "home".

Well this is unexpected, they can't really use the KT teaser now. I guess Afreeca is paying Life just as much or more than KT did.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

I think they pay him less but he has more freedom. And maybe he gets to stream to compensate for less salary.

I have no insigt whatsoever, but this seems like a bad sense of loyalty from KT. If Life was still the best of the best, they would've probably held onto him.

I want Leenock&Life on same team
