On Dec. 2nd, Kim Dong-hwan, former coach of Prime, announced the official disbandment of Prime.



He stated, "I`d like to say thank you for all the cheers that fans gave to us. Also, I`d like to say sorry. I hope there will be no more innocent victims like me. I want to keep working for SC2 scene as long as circumstances permits."



Edit:



According to his post on DCinside Starcraft Gallery (Korean SC community), He was nominated as a new head coach of 2016 Prime.



He said Prime was going well before the scandal erupted; new uniforms, recruits (planning to ally with foreign teams), rebuilding, new sponsor and so on.



However, after the scandal, Shiycoms canceled it`s sponsorship and everything went wrong. - that`s how Prime disbanded.

At least things can't get worse now. No, there's just no possible way things can get any worse.



RIP Prime, you were my first team flair. Your sons Maru and Polt will carry on the best of your legacy. And maybe ByuN. Heck, possibly even Creator! INna Maru-da-FanTa, Bbaby, TY Dream that I'm Flashing you

yoshi245 Profile Joined May 2011 United States 2782 Posts #8 Well this was bound to happen, whatever sponsors PRIME did have must have clearly jumped ship as fast as possible when details about the match fixing scandal broke. Was the only logical conclusion to close down the team imo.



I hope to see a new KESPA 8th team get revived for next year's proleague. "Numbers speak about the past, not the present." -Thorzain

Don't think so, SBENU is basically a direct continuation of Startale. Don't think so, SBENU is basically a direct continuation of Startale.
