Chinese team (Wiki)KaiZi Gaming has acquired the services of Korean Zerg player (Wiki)Solar. His former team (Wiki)Triumphant Song Gaming had disbanded its SC2 division a few weeks ago, he had been looking for a new organization to pick him up since then.

Solar will be a key part of KaiZi’s efforts to claim the title in the upcoming Gold Series Team Championship 2020 Summer Season. In the previous season, the team only managed to take third place, falling to an all-kill by (Wiki)Brave Star Gaming ace (Wiki)Dream in the playoffs.

With (Wiki)Jin Air Green Wings confirmed to be returning to the league in the upcoming edition, competition at the top will be all the more fierce.

Glad to see him get that bag.

I'm kind of rooting for KZG to lose to ANOTHER underdog team in the next China Team League playoffs though. Them continuing to buy new players and lose anyway is the funniest team league trend.

Edit: Solar is pretty much the dear of zerg to me, Always one of the top ones in theory, but never quite able to consitently Show it.

Guess a lot of contracts are running out, which would make sense, since next GTC season is supposed to start August 10th.

Nice Jin Air are back. Especially with a fair bit of chopping and changing in other teams, they’re really to me the group with the history and cohesion to actually feel like a team I could root for/against.

I wonder (also same as a lot of Chinese fans think) who will be the next Terran that all-kill KaiZi, since Solar is infamous for his defense against proxy rax.

Well, Rookie is a Terran who returned from Military Service... so if we stick with the pattern established thus far, you should bet on Team GP. :D
