Aleteh Denmark166 Posts January 14 2013 05:09 GMT #1 Translation from the wonderful Mr. Seeker Source: Daily eSports PartinG, who was a player who attended a KeSPA "Posting" for the first time as an eSF player will be putting on the SK Telecom T1 uniform. On the afternoon of January 14th, PartinG attended the KeSPA posting that went on at Seoul SahngAhmDong, where he was selected to join by SK Telecom T1. PartinG's posting event took place in front of SC2 players, KT Rolster head coach Lee Ji Hoon, SK Telecom T1 head coach BoxeR, and an audience. Orginially from eSTRO, PartinG returns to the KeSPA organization after two years. After leaving eSTRO and joining StarTale, PartinG wasn't able to grab a championship for any national leagues. His best record is making the semi finals of the 2012 GSL Season 2 Code S last year. However, he was labeled as potentially the best player in the world after he grabbed a first place finish in both WCS Global Finals and WCG. PartinG made around $200,000 in winnings alone last year. After leaving StarTale on January 3rd, PartinG stated that he would join either a foreign team or a KeSPA team. Everything pointed to PartinG joining a foreign team because he did so well in overseas tournaments but in the end, PartinG decided to join a KeSPA team. SK Telecom T1 now has a monstrous duo of Protsses in PartinG and Rain, who grabbed third place at the WCG Global Finals and a first place finish in the 2012 Auction All Kill OSL. PartinG, who will be eligible to participate in Proleague starting from Round 4 will allow SK Telecom T1 to potentially have a vantage point over any other team in their race for the top spot. + Show Spoiler +

Laryleprakon New Zealand9496 Posts January 14 2013 05:12 GMT #14 I wonder how many teams actually were in the draw to get him. Good luck to Parting/SKT, pretty scary pro league line up!

Elite__ Canada976 Posts January 14 2013 05:12 GMT #16 i see into their plan. SKT1 recruited parting to bring bisu into a hyperbolic time chamber and train him to become the best sc2 protoss in the world.

Canucklehead Canada5074 Posts January 14 2013 05:12 GMT #18 So did no other kespa teams bid or did somehow one of the best kespa teams just win the random lottery? o_O

SKT1 really wants that championship, and Parting will be a formidable asset in that endeavor. I hope the balance of power will correct itself by having Squirtle join KT.
