I'm genuinely curious about what prompted Splyce to enter the SC2 scene, how they came into contact with Solar, and if they are interested in picking up any other talented and teamless Koreans. Either way, I'm glad Solar found a team!
Right now we're just picking up Solar, though it's always possible in the future. We have been looking at the scene for about 6 months, but we didn't find a player we wanted until now. Solar was perfect for our org - great personality, incredible talent, and the ability to bring championships.

No offence taken, I get it - you want to make sure your favorite players are taken care of. The thing I'll point out to is this - all five LCS players came back and they could have gone many places (they made first and second team All EULCS in summer split, went to worlds, and had second in Europe) yet they chose to stay. Players don't stay when conditions are bad unless they have no other options. Our coach, won coach of the split in Summer, and he stayed as well. In Call of Duty, we were able to shape our roster in the way we wanted, because players wanted to come to Splyce. I know these are only words, but hopefully it shows you a bit of how players have enjoyed being at our org.

Well, best of luck to Solar then. I'd surely enjoy an interview with him on joining Splyce and his goals, maybe when 2017 WCS is announced. Just an idea, Mr. Lazerchickenzzz

I actually think this is very interesting. Splyce is a relatively large team, and they are actually investing in SC2 when it's in a very.... uncertain state. Having a "bigger" team like Splyce come in means the scene might be able to recover from the dissolution of Kespa teams.

This teams seems legit.. Great news for Solar and Sc2 :D

Feels like HSC was really good for Solar. He could not only enjoy himself but also showcase his English skills and his entertainment factor
