It will backfire only if they won't announce Innovation. Which is very possible given their love for troll tweets. | ||

None of them could prevent EG from taking their players if they really wanted to(other than the super loyal ones like nestea). But for the overall scene I don't think it would be such a bad thing, at least on Acer Innovation would be able to go to many international tournaments like Jaedong has been doing, thanks to EG Jaedong has become one of the most popular players in sc2. If Innovation gets paraded around the world he could receive the same treatment. I think it would also be super interesting to see him play on axacer in GSTL. | ||

I cant believe how many people think this is actually going to happen or they just like to live in a dream world. Innovations team just won proleague, and STX will match anything Acer would give him to keep him on the team. Plus, he gets to keep living and training with other high end Koreans, and not mma/scarlett/nerchio. STX easily has players just as good if not better and people dont even know who they are because they arnt foreigners or past gsl champions. Yeah it would be cool, in a fantasy world. I have to agree, I think the hints are just trolling on the part of Acer/Scarlett. Even if STX is doing so badly financially that they wouldn't re-sign their star player, I'd be extremely surprised if none of the other KeSPA teams would have picked him up. Though, to be fair, Acer isn't really a mediocre team, at least in terms of the foreign scene, but it doesn't have anywhere near the brand recognition of EG/TL/the like. | ||

Apart from that it would be interesting to watch him all kill nearly everyone in GSTL. | ||
