They want to reform their team for better success in the future

CuteAngel has sufficient cuteness to fit in well at Oz, methinks.

Who would want anyone other than Bogus and maybe Shuttle. The rest are grossly overpaid.

I guess they want a revamp.

Oz should pick up clam actually. Jaedong will finally have a competent zerg practice partner to improve his ZvZ to old times!

They're playoff chokers. They need a fresh mindset. All of their current players don't expect victory in the postseason. Still, quite the shakeup.
STX is seeking player-for-player trades first. I don't see other teams trading away their familiar players unless they're really desperate.

Manager Kim said that the issue was already settled with their sponsored company, STX. Every player, from the aces to the practice partners, are up for trade. They will be initially pushing for a player for player trade, and then move over to a cash trade in order to reform their player market. STX will be negotiating trades with various teams until August 10th. They are already negotiating with other teams for trades. Any players who do not get traded will be recontracted to STX. Manager Kim noted that "A massive number of player trades, something never seen in e-Sports could happen, or this attempt to bring in a new team could also fail. But we all believe that we need to change like this in order for STX SouL to live."
Pretty self-explanatory. STX wants to blow the team up and start from scratch again. Glad they finally wanted to stop under-performing, although I would honestly have made Bogus untouchable. There's no guarantee they'll get a decent ace otherwise.

It's probably going to take big money to get Bogus, I feel like he's going to be the core that they want to build around. It'd be foolish to not keep some kind of familiar "face" for the franchise there.
They're probably looking to offload players like Kal and Calm who I'd guess have larger contracts and aren't really performing at the level they once were, and are going to be gunning for younger players I'd guess who they can build a team to last multiple seasons for them.
There are a few teams that might be interested, but it wouldn't shock me to see minimal movement.

This is seriously insane. Its just totally nuts putting the entire team up for trade.

Wonder who STX wants from the other teams, come to think of it. We know that they're probably not gonna get any of TBLS, Fantasy, Hydra, or ZerO, but any other player is possible.

This seriously isn't going to turn out very well, but it would be nice to see Kal wearing the sexiest uniforms in the business.
|
This is somewhat understandable since their lineup is definitely good enough to barely get them to the playoff but not enough to win them the champion. I would rather they fire their head coach and their whole management team then to trade the whole lineup.

Errr I don't think this is the right direction for STX...
