*Lyn joins the World Elite, Showtime kicked

World Elite, the team which had with Korea, South Sweet one of their greatest losses before the WC3L finals, and which finished 4th in those, has strengthened up their roster with one of the world's finest Orcs around.

Namely Korea, South June "Lyn" Park, who, after the disband of the teamplay.it Warcraft 3 division, was on the free market. The strong Orc player has shown everybody his worldclass by finishing second in the last MWL season, and by his appearances in the WC3L and Incup.

Lately he surprised many in the Incup finals by beating players like Korea, South Shy, Korea, South Fov and Netherlands Grubby, while losing to his new teammate Korea, South Check twice.

The teamleader China Zax stated for meetyourmakers.com the following :

"Due to Sweet's departure, the team needed a powerful player who can score in the WC3L. Lyn's performance in incup impressed me very much, and he also showed interest in WE, so we got together."

Although rumours about the decreasing amount of korean players in World Elite have increased in the last days, this step is surely a huge strengthening for the already huge WE roster.

On a sidenote, Korea, South Showtime, who after his departure in MYM.Hanbit took a team captain role in WE.IGE, has been removed from the roster, due to his inactivity and his attendance into army service, as stated by Zax.

Also Zax demented any further departures from the team " Only showtime, nobody else", and at the same time gives new fire into the rumor kitchen by stating that the team will have an european addition later this year.

Lyn has been interviewed by Snow and Forever_Manutd on Replays.Net, this is the translated version of it :

Q: Welcome to WE, How do you feel after joining World Elite?

A: I am very glad to join this team. I am very excited that I can play with so many gosu gamers.

Q: What do you think about your new team? How do you like your teammates?

A: This clan is made up of many good players from asia. I like all, but I have especially better relationship with ReMinD and Check who I knew a long time ago.

Q: You announced your retirement not long before because of study. What makes you come back to wc3?

A: I just wanted to go back. I especially have regreted losing the seed from MBC game.

Q: There are many people calling you the UD killer in Korea. What do you think about it? Do you also think UD is the best to deal with for you?

A: Purely Orc is strong vs UD so I think that's my best match up.

Q: What's the most impressive moment in your career life? What's your expectation in the coming WC3L?

A: Getting to the final of MWL. We want to be the champion!

The Interview has been translated into english by Forever_Manutd.

And gl to Lyn ofc in his new team!

This newsitem confused me at first because "captain" does not necessarily indicate a non-playing role. I belive it was some time ago that ShowTime was released from his playing role, not having his contract renewed.

It's funny that ShowTime is apparantly inactive and due for army duty while in SK you can read that he has just joined FIGHTING.wc3. Not surprising, however. Hope he actually plans to stay and play for a bit, so that we can see him play (he seems in half-decent form) and so that FIGHTING.wc3 don't suffer from more instability.

#4 - He is not on the Fighting roster on WC3L or anywhere else and what is said in a forum isn't always the truth, which is where I guess you have been reading it, since SK doesn't have news about this, otherwise enlighten us with the source :)

LOL! Sorry, forgive me, I'm just confused. I mistook Swain and ShowTime there for a moment. I meant Swain! Then everything makes sense. ShowTime already said he would stick to being a commentator or the like on Korean TV, so him being kicked doesn't really matter. Sorry for the confusion.

This means that Swain might still be practising big time to own in WC3L ;)

#16 dunno if you are like blind or anything + you come from china, but what i hear is that ducui is doing great in every tour he takes part in.. of course he is not winning, but how? He has to play vs sky, suho etc. etc.
and Anas is just oldschool "Legend".

#20 he doesn't do as good as Fly100% at least and he's not doing great in every tour. no one will doubt his value in WE if what u said is true. plus it's World Elite but not China Elite. if what u said at last means his value in WE now is giving practice for Sky, suhO etc., i have to agree.
