Just 10 days after he rejoined ROOT Gaming, Mexican terran Juan "MajOr" Lopez says goodbye to the foreign team once again, this time seeing his dream to sign with a KeSPA team accomplished.This is the third time that MajOr has departed from ROOT Gaming: first in 2011 to join SixJax Gaming, second time in November 2012 in order to go after a KeSPA team and finally today to actually sign with such KeSPA team.
ROOT CatZ:
Juanito has been in ROOT 3 times! And this time, we don't know if we'll ever get him back! But he parts with us not only on good terms but with our full support. When he rejoined last time (a couple weeks ago!) we made an exception in his contract to be able to go to KeSPA teams, that being his life-long time dream, and we encouraged him and KeSPA to make this happen. Juanito will be missed but he will always be ROOT in our hearts, ROOT will always be the team he's been in the most times And we will ROOT for our chubbycakes in Korea, every match he plays. Needless to say, Juanito stays in the ROOT Secret Skype chat, and will forever be a part of our family. We'll continue to talk, learn and practice with him, argue balance and tell him he's a stubborn Mexican on a daily basis.
For people wondering, right after Juanito joined essentially, (sick timing) it was informed to us of KeSPA's interest in him. KeSPA representatives were very polite about the matter and I think that Team 8 will be a wonderful place for Juan to learn and achieve his dreams. We encouraged negotiations and quickly Juan and KeSPA came to an agreement. Juanito goes on to become the first Latino to EVER go to a KeSPA team, and at ROOT we are all very proud of him, so GOGO Juan!

Major's move to Team 8 will strengthen team's terran roster which until now was represented by just Baby and Speed.
