The LoL team might, the SC2 players definitely don't.

So we're looking at probably sOs and Creator disbanding retiring, considering the last years Creator team searching was unsuccessful and sOs is "just" Code S RO24 player
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

With OGN closing as well it's really starting to not look good for esports in Korea at all. :/

LoL, BW, and OW are doing just fine, Koreans were never fans of SC2. OGN is closing down because Riot took the rights to LCK, and Jin Air is shutting down because there hasn't been Proleague for 4 years.

Isn’t it more because -> LoL team lost spot, covid makes the sponsor less financially healthy (Jin air is planes)?

Isn't this covid related? I would think with the huge reduction in travel and therefore revenue for Jinair, Jinair needs to conserve cash. Somebody mentioned Jinair also closed their LoL team as well.

This seems highly likely scenario. The disbandment also creates a huge inflation of talent for other teams to pick up. Curious to see which ones will take on the opportunity (in addition to DPG).

LoL team wasn't as successful as SC2 team, at the same time though the SC2 team was probably just a little sibling of the LoL team so the disband was inevitable.

Yeah, from what I understand that pretty much sums it up.
Throw in that covid isn t helping their major sponsor wich is an Airline after all and that s preety much it I gues.

Remarkable and sad. Adieu JAGW you were true heroes for keeping a teamhouse environment in these trying times.

I still think the JAGW teamhouse has been a big part of the success of many players in that team. Many have noted the importance of the love and support of a team and meal preparation that likely had significant benefits for players such as Maru in his 4 GSL wins.

In 2020 it has been even more beneficial to have close comfort with your team during the pandemic.

The first point I read on twitter is very true.

It makes sense that Jin Air, an airline company would be struggling in 2020 with all of the travel restrictions everywhere.

I hope that when COVID is finally a thing of the past and things go back to a relative normal that we'll see a return of the organization to SC2. They're one of the greatest SC2 teams of all time it's a shame to see them go.

All others will have easy time finding a new team

Good god I just realized. Rogue joined Jinair in 2011 and now left in 2020. He was at that team for just over 10 years. I can't imagine how difficult it must be to have to adapt to a new environment after that...
