Puzzle has officially joined Slayers.

From page 13:

From http://www.thisisgame.com/board/view.php?category=13438&id=756189

The article is about Slayers participating in some sponsored event, not related to Puzzle though.

NEXSickness just posted a topic on playxp, titled 'Confirmed: Puzzle-hyung to SlayerS'. It was then deleted like 2 seconds later. Nothing concrete, but it seems more and more likely that this is true.

Might just be a matter of time until this becomes official.



Edit #2: Small edit just to say that the IPL bracket is now visible: http://playhem.com/tourney/10401
And like it was mentioned before, "slayerspuzzle" is no longer on the list.



Edit #1:
Some people have said that "slayerspuzzle" ended up being removed from the tournament list. I can't tell now because the page is now spoilered because IPL intends to cast the results later in the week. It could mean something about the legitimacy of this rumor (maybe it was a phony), or maybe Puzzle just couldn't show. MKP for instance decided to withdraw from the qualifier and was removed from the list.

Milkis and FXOpen(Boss?) have weighed in on the situation but their comments have been non-commital so far:

Still though, Coca and Puzzle do add a shit ton of race depth to SlayerS. Before, it was a bunch of sick Terrans and Alicia.


I feel that assuming 100% certainty of this transfer is a huge mistake. Especially given that the player has been removed from the signup list (for reasons unknown) and the fact that the title of this thread includes the caveat "rumor" in it.


I agree.



So no concrete news yet. It's still a rumor at this point. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

This post is strictly based on conjecture so take it with a grain of salt and feel free to lock if necessary.

But for the IPL 3 qualifiers, there's a protoss player who signed up as slayerspuzzle: http://playhem.com/tourney/10401

Now it could just be someone else using an alias but I think it is the Korean pro ZenexPuzzle who is signing with Slayers for the following reasons:

- Looking at the sign-up list, you'll notice that the field is almost entirely made up of known pro gamers. There barely any non-pros that are just trying their luck. So there's little reason to think that someone is smurfing posing as slayerspuzzle.

- Slayers already signed up a bunch of guys to this tournament. So it's clear that they're taking this tournament seriously. More evidence that it's not a smurf fake.

- Former zenex players Coca and Taeja have already gone over to Slayers. So puzzle could be joining his friends in making the move and Slayers is raiding zenex once again. It makes more sense than if puzzle was listed under some other team.

It could be some elaborate troll but considering that the qualifiers are only a couple hours away, I don't see the point. I think there's a very high likelihood that Puzzle is moving on to Slayers.

More Esports Drama Incoming!

^^ slayers snapping the top zenex drama, indeed more esports drama incoming

of course only if its true, wouldn't be surprising though I mean even boxer/Jessica must have realized at this point that slayers needs more protoss/zergs and that alicia is not enough

It would make sense if this is true. They have a very strong Terran lineup and now is trying to boost its Zerg and Toss lineup (there's Alicia but he seems to be somewhat inconsistent).

If Slayers was any other team people might just start comparing them to EG

ok, after looking at that qualifying list, IGN will become infested with Koreans at their live event as well.

I heard some people said in the Coca threat that Zenex is disbanding. Anyone knows if it's true?

About the disbanding, that was FXOBoss that said that, but he was trolling.
How does it feel knowing you wasted another 3 seconds of your life reading this again?

FXOBoss also said he thought EG were getting a new protoss either Huk or Sase in that hype thread. So maybe he knows something we don't

Yeah that turned out to be FXOboss trolling. But maybe there was some truth to it. Or maybe he was joking and it turned out to be real.

Sick :D SlayerS are smart to grab all the up and comming players from Zenex and giving them the opportunities to practice with a professional team. I really think both CoCa and Puzzle will grow a lot in SlayerS.

Good news for Puzzle and Slayers, but I kind of liked Puzzle being his team's ace.

i don't see why not, players moving to different teams are important, and this rumor seems very likely to be true in my opinion

Hmm if it's true then SlayerS will become unstoppable while leaving ZeNEX in shambles.

Well if it's true it's news, so it would deserve a thread. If it turns out to be false then sure, lock it up.

Considering CoCa recently switched, this is looking to be possibly true. Would be amazing for SlayerS to get another formidable protoss in their terran-heavy ranks but ZeNex isn't looking too hot.
