The core of players that took the GSTL trophy: MKP: gone to LoL Maru: left the team B4: left the team Creator: massive slump Byun: still kickin (somewhat)
How's this for a depressing statistic: the only players on Prime's roster with any results whatsoever in 2013 are Byun with a Ro32 in GSL and Creator with a ro16 in Iron Squid. That's it. And their only other player with ANY results EVER is Annyeong with a freaking GSL code A ro48 in 2012.
The problem is, Prime loses core players over time (Polt, B4, MKP, Maru) like any other team, but it never seems to trade for any good players, and I think the only Prime nobody that ever actually became successful was Creator...who's massively slumping. Kal was pretty good in the hybrid season, but that was a long time ago... For God's sake I hope the Prime nobodies have been practicing their asses off, or Prime will be the new laughingstock of the league. Well I mean Creator won WCS KR in 2012 and got second in BWC to PartinG. He also won TSL4. Those are probably his best results.
Yeah, those results were quite good, just a long time ago. What I quoted was the best he's managed this entire year...

Prime desperately need some new talents in their team. Looks like they have the weakest line-up now out of all the KeSPA teams

lol Kal is on Prime now? When did that happen. I haven't even seen him in SC2 from what I recall... which isn't a good sign... seems Protosses have had the hardest time adapting, which makes sense considering their races are the absolute most opposite from BW.
Has Creator done anything notable for HOTS?

He joined about a month and a half ago after finishing his military service http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=433940
Creator has shown acceptable PvP and PvZ I guess but his PvT has been really bad. Haven't seen him too recently though

Eh how sad. He used to be one of my favorite streamers, and I don't recall his PvT being particularly subpar back in WoL. Feels like PvT only got more stable too.
Miss the old guard of Polt, Check, MKP and then later followed by Byun and Creator tearing shit up (with Maru having spurts of brilliance but never being consistent). Nice to see him finally shining. I recall definitely considering buying a Prime hoodie back when they announced the shop... MKP completely influenced my TvT and TvZ in Open GSL Season 2.
Ironically, Maru's style is most akin to my own TvP, which I've been doing since 2011. Don't think I've made a Ghost in TvP in over a year in 1v1 ladder... although I take it to the extreme and try to tech either into mass cloakshee for templar snipes (vikings vs obs) or just straight into BC. Can't win vs a Toss army for the life of me head on.

Cure is still the best terran on the team. SKT must be sure to crush this Evil Small Village.

Jin air looking strong! But what will Prime do now? They need a partnership or their talents habe to tear it up and ByuN and Creator need to find to old form otherwise I dont see them winning a map.

If only you'd get rid of Parting I'd become a SKT fan now that Woongjin is dead

What strong additions. JinAir will now be real tought team to go up against. I wonder how prime will be without MKP and Maru now though...

Maru is going to get so good. But poor Prime Hopefully they do well in LoL!

Please don't remind us about the LoL debacle. I predict MKP will be back before LotV hits but the questinon is, will there be a Prime left at that point?
JinAir is now one of the strongest teams around. Who saw this coming?
