No team has ever done this I think this would be smart bc there are many good turkish t2 players that would be cheap.
TLN could kick Governor for a better turkish player
JawXG [#2]There are worse players on Talon than governor
but they can't be replaced by a turk if governor is on the team
Mortadelo [#3]but they can't be replaced by a turk if governor is on the team
He isn't classified as resident?
Blue_Iced_Tea [#6]In 2024 he was an import
Status doesn’t a change, once an import always an import as far as I’m aware
JawXG [#4]He isn't classified as resident?
The spreadsheet can confirm this (I can't access it myself because of my work blacklisting Google Drive links)
If I were to guess he's considered an NA import considering he is Korean-American and he played in NA until this year.
edit oops mortadelo beat me to it
soonwookong [#5]ngl a turk in prx would probably work
but would you swap something for a tier 2 turk?
JawXG [#4]He isn't classified as resident?
no he's an import, as per the GCD, ban is considered resident and governor is import
MagnumRaging [#11]no he's an import, as per the GCD, ban is considered resident and governor is import
would ban be considered a import in NA?
PrinceCharming [#10]but would you swap something for a tier 2 turk?
Yeah izzy could easily replace him
valkin [#12]would ban be considered a import in NA?
I believe so, he chose APAC to be able to join TLN so he is an APAC player now, can’t change it
Same for Russ for example
honestly, pacific teams other than like geng and drx should just invest in international rosters with imports. National talent pools have a very low ceiling in pacific and most teams dont have the tine/resources to develop that talent (except talon and maybe ts). Plus players like jemkin, rossy, something, and kr1stal looked really good in pacific compared to how they would look in their home regions

What kind of job blacklists Google Workspace 😭
cloudberry [#16]What kind of job blacklists Google Workspace 😭
the kind that uses microsoft stuff (Box, Outlook, etc)
Gmail is allowed but any "online storage" websites like Drive are blacklisted. It's probably a secrecy thing, because then theoretically anyone can access confidential information, screenshot/copy, and then keep on Drive

That's fair, actually

oh i thought i heard that smth is going to another team but thats prob wrong
altho ngl a flexy but aggro player could be better for prx
valkin [#12]would ban be considered a import in NA?
yes, as he "chose" APAC as his residency region
