Basically SKT will be rebuilding. Poohmandu, Piglet, Horo all leaving
Poohmandu will retire and continue his studies, Piglet will take a break and consider his options in the future Horo is leaving to seek and join a foreign team.
All their contracts expire on Sept. 30th. I'm so sad T_T RIP SKT, You guys will always be the world champions in my heart <3

Imagine if NA teams were as bloodthirsty as Korea.

There is no room for mediocrity in Korean League.

At this rate there will be scores of Korean players available to be picked up for the next LCS season. Which also puts a lot of pressure on the established players. Still I hope teams keep in mind that results for Korean imports were mixed.

S can be a top tier team if they get a good jungler imo.
But I can see them screwing over S and moving Wolf/Bang to K

Man, this kinda sucks. But with not making worlds this year and competition in Korea being so high, you kinda expect a change to happen.

Piglet probably gone cause he already had problems adjusting to Casper? Not surprised about mandu

It won't be hard for Piglet to find new team if he really wants it, so i'm not worried for him.
Beelzehan can easily find team in NA at least, especially if dexter leaves CLG.
Thanks, Pooh! <3 #neverforget Thanks, Piglet! <3 Thanks, Hundred Acres Lane! <3

this is clearly just a prelude to moving to europe

??????????????????????????????????????? noooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

First it was them not making it to Worlds, now its them not being the same I'm so sad Piglet worked so hard...I wanted to see Pooh and Piglet bot lane shine once more next season, and them streaming their duo games on Azubu. But now it will never be, I want to cry...

Bengi is definitely worse than Piglet, but it's been shown that Piglet doesn't seem to adjust to other supports that well. SKT probably just wanted to completely rebuild their bot lane and pray Bengi gets better.

Seems like Bengi will go to SKT S and K will find a new jungle and bot lane all together, hopefully some fresh soloQ talent
|
Keep in mind that due to the roster requirements (at least 3 original), SKT1 K can no longer swap out any players otherwise they forfeit their OGN seed and will have to requalify (see: Xenics Storm) (this wouldnt be the BIGGEST issue but...) This means that Bengi will most likely not transfer to S or any more players will leave K this season. SKT1 S can still swap out 1 more player though (don't see why they would need to though) kkoma might look for fresh solo queue talent Faker style or he could go for some of the existing free agents in PraY and stuff but idk about that
