ENCE Statement:
The King, the GOAT, the Phenom, the Champion. Those are a few words that come to mind when describing Joona. ENCE has had the pleasure of sharing seven phenomenal years with one of the world's most skilled and successful esports players. We wish him the best of luck in his future endeavors and continuing success in the ranks of his new team.

My guess is DPG, since Dark is starting military soon, and I guess Serral is the next best thing
Would also keep to the theme of the KaiZi vs. DPG rivalry if one has Reynor and the other Serral.

DPG might scouted him first I guess. Dark, and then Rogue albeit in just short time span. They managed to assemble two best Zerg players in the world, and now they another best Zerg player into the rooster.
Rogue & Maru fan boy. ^^

any reason why he would leave? ENCE not paying enough, or just a mutual separation?

Move to DPG make sense, as they are about to lose Cure as well, that leave only herO as the Ace. Serral and herO, and another solid player will give DPG more change to win.
And if Serral can play in the coming WTL playoff for DPG, then its OVER.

Huh, can't say I saw that one coming.

Idk, but he was the only SC2 player on the roster. Obviously he's Serral so he can prbly take his pick of practice partners but it will be interesting to see how he does if the team who snagged him is more SC2 centered.

We can only hope that he just had so much fun in the WTL 2v2 tourney that he wanted to play a full season and try his hand at GSL to boot.

Can't wait to see where he ends up! Massive sign for any team.
Now witness their attempts to fly from tree to tree. Notice they do not so much fly as plummet.

And that's entirely possible, WTL gave teams a grace period until Feb 6th to register new players to compensate for the delay.

Rotti can play, they will make it through the WTL qualifier with Serral carrying. Then they can add more player when the regular season comes.

Rotti has always been big on supporting the 'mid-tier' (my words) pros who are good but don't get much attention, so I wonder if we get a WTL-ready roster that's Serral + up and comers

Or Basilisk could try to scoop up some of the NV players to become a true contender. Serral was probably very expensive though, who knows how much money is left (Rotti is a big Bunny fan...)

Oh fascinating, Basilisk making a huge move to assert their presence in the scene.

Hopefully this does lead to Serral in playing in WTL, lots of good storylines there.

Hope they get one or two great players more...would be kind of sad to finally have Serral in WTL and then he isn't in a competitive team :/
