Following today's + Show Spoiler [IPL TAC3 Finals] + Coach Victor Goossens of Team Liquid announced the immediate recruitment of three new players (pictured above) to help "improve the team's depth" and deal with "situations in which we cannot use Yoon Young Suh (Taeja)." The full interview is translated below:

Team Liquid Coach Nazgul, "I am very excited about the new players"

[image loading]



-Why the sudden recruitment of three new players?
▲ After our finals with IM, I thought about our team dynamic and decided recruiting these three players was the best solution going forward. I hope that PirateTerran, MoustacheTerran, and LiquidsucksBallsWithoutMe can give our team the edge it needs to not have such losses in the future

- Every new player is of the Terran race
▲ I chose to bolster our Terran lineup the most with this new recruitment. Often while playing important matches, when we would lose Taeja there were very few godlike S-class map-defying terrans to choose from in the lineup, which would cause a defeat. WIth this new recruitment we will have more choice.

- Very similar in looks to Taeja
▲ This is very false, please do not print something so incorrect. You can notice, for example, that PirateTerran wears an eyepatch and MoustacheTerran has a large nose, both of which Taeja does not. Clearly they are very different.

- Many players have been kicked off the team
▲ It is very saddening to have to lose a team member, but with the addition of the three new players it is decided to let go of TLO, NonY, HayprO, HerO, Ret, Sheth, and Zenio. Fans who are dissapointed may enjoy to hear that we have still kept many of our old players - such as (T)TaeJa

- New team photo?
▲ No the new players are too shy to pose for a group photo. Perhaps they can have an individual photoshoot with 2-7 minutes between each player's pictures.

- Any last words?
▲ We hope the fans will support the new team members and we look forward to many more wins under the new strategy.

Wow this is pretty cool news as a Liquid fan. I wonder what Taeja thinks about all the new TvT practice partners hes gonna get - I heard all three of these guys are absolutely insane in that matchup

Author's plea: This thread is meant as a joke, despite how the reactions of SC2 fans may differ from those of BW fans when the Hwaseung thread was first posted.

lol it's not funny if you have to explain it. You could've at least tried to make it original, instead of just copy/paste the oz one ._>

Ahaha, brilliant.

It may just be a copy of the other thread with some words changed around and different pictures but I thought this was hilarious.

Lmao nice, the original Jaedong thread was awesome.

Wow....type in "teamtaeja.net" in your browser and it takes you to TL's homepage.

Hmm...it doesn't work for other TL players. Seems like TL preemptively registered teamtaeja.net because of how it's caught on as a nickname.

Lol I feel the same, but it is still funny.

Common it's not fair, there is atleast one other contributing member. If you are watching Sayle's stream he just proved that Ret coming on before Taeja is his sign for success. So this team needs Ret for it to work .

Lol

On a serious note, I think Liquid might pick up Sting (ex-NsH). They lost a terran player in Jinro and Sting is the sort of player they recruit anyway - not a big name but has potential.

Ye that's a role he'd enjoy - "come on, get in there Ret and lose so that Taeja can win".

I hadn't seen the original thread, so I had a good laugh at this one before I saw the credits. Funny shit (both times imo)
