Where is Soju?

I thought Soju signing with SK was just a matter of time, seeing as they signed his best friend and perpetual teammate, ReMinD. But as the weeks pass, it seems like he's still a free agent and less likely to sign with SK.

Any word on where he might end up? I would really like to see eSTRO finally live up to their word of building a Korean powerhouse clan around GoStop, but what about MYM? EVE, Moon's stand-in for some CWs, has been struggling for the past few WC3L seasons; more so this season. Not only that, Soju could easily slide in to 2v2 duty alongside Susiria should Moon and Lucifer be unavailable.

The only other clan that can probably afford him right now is BeT, and frankly, if BeT were to get Soju to go with FoV, Sweet and Check, I think they become the favorites to win the WC3L (especially if their Orc, BeT.Who, continues his recent upswing).

eSTRO was a potential team to pick up all the Koreans who left WE, however they showed no interest in a warcraft squad, so soju joining estro is highly unlikely.

My guess is as good as yours for which team actually does pick him up..

nice read!!
I wish SoJu will go to SK
since I can't bear him and ReMinD going apart
other than that, would be intresting to see him join 4K if Creo ever does leave

Soju won't join eSTRO and seems like SK wc3 budget is closed.

Ye, I doubt Estro is interrested in WC3, they only signed Gostop, so they could make that "projekt korea" title, if you understand me

@#2: If eSTRO has no plans to continue with a competitive, fully-formed WC3 clan, they should let GoStop go and give him a chance to compete in the major WC3 tournaments like WC3L and NGL. This is Pantech-Curitel and Moon all over again. >_<

Let's run it down:

4K could definitely use Soju to replace Creo when he retires and GoStop FuRy, who bombed out of the WCG Swedish Qualifiers and looks to be winding down his career. My gut feeling, though, is that if they were to replace Creo and FuRy, they'd go with young European talent, like Neytpoh.

The other team that can actually afford a talent like Soju (and GoStop if he's ever released) is mouz. They're struggling near the bottom of the WC3L standings. SaSe despite making it to the Swedish WCG Finals, is not the same player he was when he first moved to China, and as he goes, so goes mouz. Hasu looks to be inactive, and while Fly100 continues to dominate at LANs, I think his iNet connection is costing him and mouz crucial points in WC3L play. Happy and TitaN have unquestionable talent, but are too young and inconsistent to contribute sure points that are usually the province of SaSe and HasuObs (who was having an out-of-body experience for a few months when he won EPS and qualified for ESWC over Miou, fire_de and co.).

If they don't start rallying soon, it may be too late. I would expect them to either try and pry Deadman from SK, or try and sign the best remaining Korean free agents out there to rocket them back into contention. -_-

*sigh* plz tell nordahl sign soju in!

since yellow would not make it in future..soju is a sure cost-benefit!!!since mym wc3 are koreans dont think he will have a hard time bonding...soju definitely can take in replacement for moon..though EVE is without a doubt a player with performance..he seems to loose almost if not all his matches at wc3l..EVE still need much practice..while soju can give so much boost for MYM..MYM]Soju sounds good to!

MYM]SoJu anyone?

Maybe 4K to compensate for Creo?
4K have had a korean player along them before (FoV).

no he didnt leave the team, he just goes more or less inactive. In an interview he said his not to sure if he stops fully playing or if he continues just with playing much less. He didnt play for 4K yesterday in wc3l but he will play WCG anyway. So who knows if we will see him playing later again for 4K.

World Elite is still goin' strong even without their Koreans. They've been running over everyone in WC3L, Infi especially has stepped up. And let's not forget Reign and Sky are still there.

As to Soju, I can't see him going anywhere except SK or wNv maybe.

i guess soju is in some trouble now. he would definately deserve top wages and he knows that, but it looks like none of the real top teams is really looking for such an expensive world class player or just cant afford him... i just hope he can sign a good deal.
