Also...SHIN, even your own team calls you RagnaroK still. Really not ready to overthink that change? :/ | ||

Though I think Team Falcons is the international heavy-hitter team while Twisted Minds usually works more domestically? Ah damn they really pick players up one-by-one, leave my WTL alone  | ||

He s probably still more expensive than any foreigner apart from Serral, Reynor or Clem So not to suprising only big "non-SC2" Orgs can afford him | ||

In WTL I guess, the orgs picking up individual SC2 players for the sake of these big Saudi tournaments was always going to be an issue for team competitions. Even without that you’ve less cash in the scene, plus a lot of flux to contend with in a game that hasn’t been focused around teams primarily for a long, long time, which only adds to those challenges. I still enjoy the WTL don’t get me wrong but players traded a lot anyway, new teams formed and teams folded quite frequently. The last ‘true’ team for me was Jin Air Green Wings (in that it competed in team leagues for years and had a very stable roster) and that’s a hell of a while back | ||

He is new name for me Since he is longer active again after his military than Stats and soO, he definetly had the better results in the last few years. In peak form I would assume both of them to be much better, but who knows if they will ever truely reach that again. There are also a few other top players without a team, the biggest one would probably be Astrea right now? | ||

Showtime teams up with BASILISK (interestingly "BASILISK+Showtime", not "BASILISK+BIG"?), Kelazhur (R8) teams up with Platinum Heroes and Spirit (NaVi) 'returns' to PSISTORM. Nice also apparently left LittleFairy and therefore Twisted Fairy aswell and will probably not be in WTL (for now) | ||
