Jin Air had previously announced they would be parting ways with Creator (mutual termination) back on December 1st.

So the rumours of creator to a chinese team is now debunked.

Congrats to Creator

Guess they discovered it was cheaper to keep Creator around than to plumb in a dishwasher.

I'm happy for him. I was a bit worried there for a second.

Maru: I'm hungry.

Rogue: Where's dinner?

Trap: We don't have any plates.

sOs: They're all dirty.

Maru: ......



JAGW: Please welcome Creator back to the team!

There's no need to be cruel to him, at a time when he should be celebrated for securing one of the most sought-after positions in SC2.

Well done Creator, I hope this re-signing is a springboard for you.

I agree—it's just a cruel and tasteless joke, especially in this context when something good has happened to Creator. One might talk bluntly about his competitive results, but I feel like this crosses the line.

really happy for creator! to be honest, i laughed at the dishwasher jokes but this thread is the wrong place for that. It diminishes Creators insane skill. And eventhough his recent results werent that great, he is always a bless to watch.

Gratz Creator and JinAir!!!

I really wonder why they initially let him go only to bring him back. It could even be considered the dishwashing joke in poor taste as it is, might be valid to a certain point.

I hope he does better in 2020 and gets some notable results.

Yeah, I wonder this too. Did he decide to go and then change his mind? I'm glad he's still with them if he wants to be. Creator has shown in recent times that he has the chops to play at a very high level. He's just having a hard time bringing his A-game consistently. If he can get past the hump, we may yet see him emerge as a top tier player. I really empathize with the guy and wish him the best.

They offered him much lower payment, he didn't accept and tried to find somebody with a better offer, Creator didn't find anyone so he accepted the JAGW offer?

Regardless of how you interpret it, really glad to see Creator was welcomed back. He works hard to participate in anything he can and represent his team when possible.

This is what I'm thinking. There seems to be a big increase in possible salaries these days due to the CTC and all the new money in China. What happened with Cure pretty much confirms this. So it was never Jin Air not wanting to resign Creator, it was him who wanted to look for a better contract.
