Captain Lee Jaedong of course <3
Sea is far more likely to be captain, imo.
Neither.
usually the oldest one is the captain. That means, Tyson would be the captain. But I think the "team captain" is not that important compared to other sports.
As I posted earlier on, I am still stunned this team is sick, can't take my mind of it. This team is amazing, love it already. I really hope this team stays together and they will find a capable sponsor for this team.

Finally there are some bright news from the BW scene. Kespa hwaiting!
you never thought you'd see the day you would ever say that huh?
Well, I'm generally not one of the biggest Kespa-haters, although they're dumbasses sometimes. But this is indeed one of their brightest moments.
A lot of foreign fans on TL throw shit at kespa because of all the bad publicity and for the things they screwed up on (blizzard copyright issue, handling of matchfixing scandal) but kespa should be given more credit. They are part of the reason why korean BW has been able to stay relatively structured and systematic in terms of things like drafting. Kespa should also be given credit for maintaining Shinhan bank's (one of south korea's biggest and wealthiest banks) continuous sponsorship for proleague, which is probably more important than anything else.

Hopefully they give them at least a generic name like 'Sharks' or 'Fighters'. They probably don't want to give them any logo or jerseys seeing as they are still hoping a sponsor will pop up seeing the talent on the squad.

I wonder where they practice?
At their new apartment of course! I hear its pretty decent.
Player salaries are said to have been fully finalized for team8. Mr. Cho said “the exact salaries cannot be made public. All we can say is that [the salaries] were based on last year’s results and were balanced in comparison to other team’s players. The end result was an increase in salary for most players, with the exception of Jaedong who’s salary remains pretty much the same.”
Mr. Cho added that “not a single player is unhappy with his salary. One of the players will be enjoying double of his previous year’s salary. All players were happy at the end of negotiations and they were eager to get to work.” So there you have it, there seems to be no loss of morale for these players as they diligently prepare for the new season.
KeSPA Fox Heroes of Oz ughh maybe not. Hopefully a sponsor comes out quick, and I could see someone wanting to sponsor a team with this talent. KIA or LG heed their call.
So now not only they have a beast team, but the players get the salary doubled? Talk about how motivated those guys are. This teams is gonna destroy everybody in 11-12 oO

1 player doubled his salary. JD's salary is the same. The rest got salary increments.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I dont really like alot of terran or protoss players, since im a z user myself and I almost always root for the Z and dont watch alot of TvP/PvP (TvT is awesome though) But there are two. 1. Sea - amazing player and really fun to watch 2. Baby - i think that everyone who watched GOM with tasteless fell in love with him right there.
God this team is AMAZING. And i really like that the league is getting mixed up a little bit again and that JD finally gets a proper team!!!!!!!
Proleague is going to be SO tight this season. CJ, SKT, KT, and now this...4 teams that could all definitively (at this point based on last season's results) be viable champs. What's more even the other teams, though not as strong I feel, are all more than capable of taking wins from anyone (except STX, sry guys T_T ).
