Mercado fichajes - Spring Split 2017

Del stream de Mata de ayer:

• Originally planned on signing together with Deft as a package deal but told Deft to sign on his own first if he wants to. Mata said it wasn't his place to hold Deft to that agreement.
• If he can't find a Korean team he will just take some time off and stream.
• Stories about MaRin manipulating recent free agent signings are nothing more than speculations.
• Not under a contract so he is free to be contacted.
• He and Deft LOVE Ambition
• Can't say which team he is going to because it has not been finalized yet.
• Not that close with Faker.
• This is just a personal opinion but Faker seems aloof when it comes to interacting with players from other teams. Maybe it's his thing?
• Not that close with PraY either.
• Would love to be buddies with lots of players. Loves crazy, psychotic types. (ex. PraY, Smeb)
• Sangyoon and Ikssu are "really" crazy
• A story about Vasili he heard from DanDy. One time during a scrim DanDy was regrouping after getting Baron and all of a sudden the dude goes nuts like he's a Geodude.
• DanDy is looking for a team. If he can't find one DanDy will just stick with Dungeon and Fighter.
• There's a stereotype that Chinese don't shower but it's like anywhere else in the world. Some do some don't. Most importantly Mata doesn't care...why would he pay attention to another guy showering.
• Team house in China is decent but personally thinks Korea is better.
• Haven't dated a Chinese girl so can't say much regards to that...
• Samsung team house is the best. Haven't been to other places but Samsung's is insane.
• Chinese teammates were all nice but some are psychotic as well.
• Dade thinks he's a real life general. Mata thinks he's crazy too because Dade considers himself handsome. Dade also speaks so differently on TV. Nice guy though.
• No one is really terrible. They would be in jail if they were, right?
• Score is great. But when it comes to securing Baron Smeb is better.
• Even if you are under a contract, if you get your team's consent other teams can contact you.
• No idea who SKT's top laner is going to be...maybe it's him. Mata says he's great at top Jayce. He almost always won against Looper one on one.
• Faker + Peanut synergy will be great. Ultimately, Mata says, your ability to work with your teammates is your level of play. What's the point if you are doing well on your own? You have to synergize well.
• Doesn't remember all the cooldown timers for different champions, but tries to study them as much as possible.
• His summoner name is from Juan Mata (Spanish soccer player)
• RNG offered an amazing contract but left because he wanted to return to Korea.
• Best Midlaner in China is Rookie.
• Confident against Faker in a one-on-one match...confident that he will lose.
• Would love to travel but has no time.
• Doesn't consider himself an extraordinarily hard-working or a naturally talented gamer, but a type of player who communicates well.
• Top 3 ADCs? Bang and PraY. No third pick.
• When he signs with a Korean team this time, Mata wants to focus on his own plays...he did not have much time to do so because he was too busy looking after other players.
• During season 2 Mata played Ryze and Ezreal the most. There was a tournament hosted by Inven which he participated with Bengi.
• Started playing support because a friend of his asked to try it.
• Practice is about 18 hours/day. 16 without time spent eating.
• Says he's not one of the highest-paid players in China.
• Didn't buy the new Lux skin...it's a waste of money because he doesn't play it.
• Considers Thresh and Karma as top-tier solo queue support picks.
• Not much of a drinker.
• Says he doesn't hit people...he'd be in jail if he did.
• Not from a well-off family.
• Jayce support pick was a mistake. Nothing else to say.
• Not sure why players are avoiding Longzhu...they pay a lot so why not...
• Best player he ever faced is Faker
• Can't seem to hit Faker with a skill. It's frustrating because it's like facing someone who is scripting.
• Got a lot of coaching position offers.
