I would definitely expect YuGiOh, given teamless, big-name zergs currently out there. However, Acer of all teams picking up another Zerg seems weird. Unless I'm missing something, I am not seeing them as being a particularly well-rounded team as far as race distribution goes, and this pickup won't help much

Would be a funny twist if the Zerg hint didn't actually mean the player is Zerg and they pick up MMA, the hint meaning vs Zerg specialist.

On State of the Game I heard one of them say MMA was talking to Acer and Azubu so I figure It's possible.

If they say the new player is zerg I would say its pretty likely that the new player is zerg.

Well, it just says " Zerg " not " A Zerg " or " Zerg Player "

we'll see ;o

Supposing the zerg hint simply means the player is zerg, I think Jaedong would be a strong possibility. All of the Team 8 players would surely be looking to secure a team with a solid grounding. If so, with Nerchio having been my favourite foreigner for a while, Acer will have to become my listed favourite team!

I can't be the only one who wouldn't count Yugioh as big name, surely.


Destiny would be a "big name" in a way, but with him playing so much more LoL right now, I don't think he'd be looking for a SC2 team right now.
ZerO - FantaSy - Calm - Nal_rA - Jaedong - NaDa - EffOrt - Bisu - by.hero - StarDust - Welmu - Nerchio - Supernova - Solar - Squirtle - LosirA - Grubby - IntoTheRainbow - Golden... ~~~ Incredible Miracle and Woongjin Stars 화이팅!

-_- i mean I understand that zerg is a good race right now but jesus christ... you already have a team of zergs, what will you do after infestor nerf (if it goes through)?

they will prbl be fine as all of them were representing high level before the infestor boom, and anyway Nerchio/Bly 's (i don't fallow scarllet too much) style does not put huge korean-like emphasise on infestor

actually I do agree. I know nerchio and scarlett were pretty good before the queen buff and the "patch zerg" emergence. I just think its odd that the team has no diversity. I dont see how they could win team leagues as all you really have to do is practice XvZ
How much is that team practice really essential in sc2? I know a lot of koreans basically just play at home, mostly without team practice. Liquid is a fairly good example of that [even the racial balance they do have in korea is basically just one player of every race which is hardly "enough"]. I think its down a lot to individuals to form practice networks+ladder.


it depends on a player, not being under one roof does not mean u do not train with your mates. Even a simple thing as having a friend (aka teammate) to discus problems before matches can be crucial.

each team is equally dependant on the game's balance. In their case if zerg gets some serious changes, they will prabobly the ones to steer the metagame shift

seems like yugioh, Koreans almost never travel to IEMs without a financial backer, and YuGiOh hasn't cancelled for Singapore (2 days until Singapore now) while it says he's "teamless"

I feel that so many zergs in a roster is weird.

We all agree that zerg is strong these days and the only zerg that did well before the "zerg era" is Nerchio. I hope that Acer just buyed a strong zerg player and not some one who just got carried by the multiple zerg buffs. If the new member isn't that strong the acer line up may really fade away since blizzard wants to nerf zerg badly (see the unofficial patchnote).

But they never said the new player was a zerg.. all these said was '1: big name non-european 2: zerg'


This can literally just mean zerg killer... from a protoss or terran standpoint.

Zergs had it hard for almost 2 years, they are used to having it hard
