Former SlayerS player Brown has joined SK telecom T1.
KeSPA stated that after the disbanding of SlayerS Brown expressed his desire to join a KeSPA team and therefore KeSPA invited the teams to bid on his contract through the posting system. They further added that SK telecom was the only team to submit a bid and as a result Brown has joined SK telecom.
Born in September 1991, Brown (Choi, Min Su) is a Protoss player who reached the Round of 32 at the 2012 GSL Season 1 Code S and 1st place in the Iron Squid Chapter II Korean Qualifiers.
Brown becomes eligible to play for his team in Proleague with the commencement of Round 4 of the SK Planet Proleague 12-13, which is scheduled for March.
------------------------
Note: It is widely known that Brown was already with SK telecom as a trainee player; the fact he just went through the posting system implies that his status has now become that of a professional player in KeSPA parlance.

Another SKT1? Isn't it time for someone else to bid?

Good for brown! Also yay BoxeR picking up his old players.
I'm somewhat surprised no other teams bid on him, he is decent and he knows the esf players, I'd think more teams would want his knowledge for individual leagues.

From my understanding there's nothing stopping teams from bidding, but if multiple teams clear the reserve price then a lottery is held which disadvantages teams who have picked up players from the posting system. Since SK telecom was the only team to bid, the lottery did not occur.

They needed more Protoss players anyway.

This has been known for a really long time. It's just that no official announcement was made. It's kind of like with my FXO.NA players. When I sign players onto my team, some people know about it some don't. When people don't know about it, it's mainly because I never made an official announcement thread on TL. But they're still signed.

Think he was a trainee before

NICE, SKT1 All the way!! I LOVE Brown's style, I hope he goes far with SKT1.
|
Nice pick by BoxeR. Brown once showed up in Code A and quickly got into Code S in his first try, so he most definitely has the potential.

He's been a trainee for them since Slayers disbanded. I'm surprised this wasn't known by many.
|
hmm interesting was his price to high?? though he would have been a good pick up for a few teams
|
Probably because of Boxer.
|
Im starting to get the feeling that SKT are buying a bunch of protosses in the hopes that one of them can make Bisu into a great SC2 player.
|
Heard this a while, nice to see it's official though. Grats Brown! Any word on Dark or the others? Dark joined T1 as a trainee as well right?
