And people were wondering if the prize pool was enough to get high caliber players

Looking forward to the games

I will root for Yeoksamdong because I stayed there and it's not SKT so I don't have to feel bad about it.

Cool way to work things out, excited to see it take shape

On one hand it's quite sad no new players are participating, but I guess that was inherent to making a tournament for 4 teams of 4. Hopefully it will work as a placeholder to keep people interesetd in StarCraft while the're working out a long term solution.

Afnigga? How the hell did Afreeca Freecs accept that their player name a team like that.
Also interesting how the teams build up: Team 1 is practically all of Ex-SKT without Dream and Dark. Team 2 is Byun and friends Team 3 is afreeca with this very special name Team 4 is Ex Samsumg + rest of Ex-SKT.
I guess too much of Ex-SKT is at HSC while I wonder why Jin Air (the team which is still operating) did not try to get a spot. Even without sOs and Rogue, they could still do well with Maru, Trap, Creator, Cure and Hyun

They probably just told the team that they were going to name themselves team 아프니까 as a reference to the book "아프니까 청춘이다" and the team didn't notice the phonetic joke.

A true Renaissance man.

I have high hopes that this will turn out to be as Afreeca was to GOM. GOM was backwards and reliant on the old internet ideas of exclusivity and paywalls. Likewise ProLeague had a lot of "subscriber only" stuff that just didn't sit well.
Afreeca has kept GSL competitive and strong. Hopefully VSL can recognize the strengths of delivering a solid product and capitalize on the open niche we want filled.

I think it's really exciting to see Koreans build their own teams based on personal bonds and preferences more than on winning probabilities and promotion value.

Replacement player Dark, wtf.
