I'm thinking it's most likely New York since they seem to be going all Korean with LW Blue, and Flower can;t play. It'd be interesting if he went elsewhere

Don't think he's OWL caliber, but hopefully he performs well wherever he goes. Haven't watched enough of his streams to see the level that he's at.

I think he will play for LWB(NYC) until flower turn 18! He has a lot of fanbase so the teams in wich he will play earn a lot of fan!

Interesting, Fl0w3r's birthday is after the April cut off so I wonder if they'll make an exception and allow him to sign but not play until he's 18 like Sinatraa. Either that or he has to miss out on the entirety of Season 1.

If it's the former Mirage could be an OK temporary substitute but I'm not sure I'd particularly choose him to ring in for a full Season since contracts are just one year initially.

Hopefully they can make something good with this or risk getting run over by the current apparent top tier teams.

How did I miss this thread!? This is very interesting as I think there are plenty of Korean DPS players above him. I don't think this is for viewership as I think signing any top Korean players will attract similar, if not more, Korean viewers. He must've improved a lot or something.

Also, Runner just posted this on his twitter:

I don't think this means much, but I will be really happy if they can find someone to pick them up as a whole.

Huk recently said that he wants some koreans in his team so maybe Mirage is going to land on Boston...
