a.) Who is this guy?
b.) Does this mean that Rain is not joining mYi or DP? He's apparently a "community manager" - for whom, I dunno, but presumably some European team. He RTs a bunch of stuff on French teams, but also has "VAMOS VORTIX" in his description. Maybe a Millenium rep who knows things from other teams?

He said that it's NOT going to Rain in Swiss. I suppose that could mean that Rain was about to sign with Swiss team and then decided not to or.. this guy has just found out about this news and is tweeting* about it. Curious if it had to do anything with todays news from Korea, it's gonna be interesting.

Any annoucements coming up in near future?

Maybe DeadPixels, nothing sure.

Was off this week-end so just managed to watch some of the games on a bad wi-fi, will investigate this "Rain NOT in Swiss" thingy, might be that the team didn't see any reason to bring him considering the new WCS rules.

Journey wanted to find a foreign team but he's now looking for korean teams too.

This might be a dumb question, but what happens to all the Koreans on foreign teams now? What's the point of being on a foreign team if they can only compete in IEMs/DHs, and are stuck in Korea but can't even play Proleague?
Is everyone expecting a mass exodus of Koreans from foreign teams back to Kespa now?

It must be pretty tough when you are used to SKT ^^

I think it will be a mix of different things. Some will leave their teams and join KeSPA teams (Jaedong please), others will be able to compete in Proleague since their team will be partnering with one of the teams participating (I'd expect Acer and Axiom to do this). And then there will of course be some who will not be able to compete in proleague, but that's not the end of the world with GSL and SpotTV Starleague, plus three KeSPA cups and maybe even more. They will be more flexible when it comes to visiting foreign tournaments without Proleauge.

Yeah, when INno was in Acer, he was playing GSL and it was fine. Now with more competitions to come it'll be even easier from the players point of view.
From the team point of view though, it will be more about strategy and sponsors visibility, a good and popular european playing WCS premier + IEM DH coften fits better than a not so well-known Korean playing code A, even if he's a much better player...
