I would rate Lustboy as world class - he played with Frost and Blaze during the time they were thought to be at the height of their prominence. Even by Korean standards, he is highly rated. I'm surprised TSM managed to pick him up and he made an impact immediately upon playing. And as part of one of two teams that managed to take a game off Samsung White, Lustboy is definitely world class, to say the least.
LMQ have split mostly because of personal reasons - ackerman is away from loved ones and wants to be back in China, possibly competing with an LPL team. NoName is retiring and Vasilli is looking to be recruited by another NA team. XWX is staying, but Mor is currently undecided.
Piglet and PoohMandu were dropped during World Championships. Not surprised that he got picked up, to be honest. I've never rated Cop that highly as an ADC compared to his contemporaries (I believe he was described as the most solid ADC, but not exceptional). I'm not sure of Xpecial as a support, but perhaps Curse can make it work.
I'm surprised Deft is going to EDG. I was sure another Korean team would pick him up. But I guess SKT K can't do it, since they're getting Wolf and Bang, from what I hear.
Rekkles on Alliance? Tabzz was pretty good, though. :/
**** Dig. I've never liked them anyway (except Shiphtur/Zion... basically the Coast members - all the other Dig members sucked except maybe Crumbz)

I feel like Wolf and Bang are alright. We'll see how it goes...

Crumbz is easily best and only good dig player thats why they are all leaving. Thats why i was thinking maybe tsm could by out Crumbz and he would join tsm but im not sure that will happen now.
I think Vasili might actually be a good pick up for DIG and replacement for there adc. At worlds he was best of there team and since start he has always been on best adcs in na. The only problem is language barrier and who could support with him and will they understand each other fully.
Shiphtur i used to like until i heard about him and more behind the scene things i heard he was a real **** when he was on coast and basically would never work with the team and gave up.
Looks like reckless is gone from Fnatic if what i read is true. He is not happy with his team i guess looks like he is going to Alliance.
He can be bought out for 15k he has said he enough” and will be willing to “pay the money himself to be able to pursue his options.”
Also tabzz on ask fm wow...
How do you feel that rekkles is potentially poaching your job?” Van Helvert responded “he's been trying to do it since the end of spring its nothing new LOL.”
“Why do you say rekkles has been trying to take your job - what do you mean”
Van Helvert replied: “For a very long time he's been notifying that he's dissatisfied with his teammates, and has been hinting he'd love to be on a stronger and more motivated team (wink wink).”

Also krepo is off EG now free agent. I have a feeling he wont be picked up all na teams have good supports thats not where na is lacking unless he joins dig or some ****.
I feel like Krepo is perfect match for riot games and becoming a caster or something like that he can retire now and work for them.

mancloud wants to try to try out for LMQ. Yes pls
Tabzz, Krepo and Jesiz are free agent now too. The roster changes are too much :/
Crumbzz resigned with Dignitas and is now team captain.
