Best of luck, Genna. From what I could see you were a really good and comforting team owner and I feel really sad that it's come to this. Definately lost a shitton of reputation for Take. I and many others appreciate your honesty and open way of bringing everything. Thanks for all you've done Genna, and hopefully this won't have too big of an impact on the entire team because of all the bullshit that's happened towards you & Axiom. Ugh.

Ehem, what? Someone, quick, make sure TaKe was not drunk with Dayshi & Co.
But yeah, good luck, and remember about fate of SlayerS players.

Fuck Dennis. If he wasn't so concerned about saving face rather than being honest with everybody about his mismanaged tournament then some of this might not have happened. When you say "I hope there are legal consequences for what you've done" all bets are off, I lose any respect I've had for you. I hope Take enjoyed the free casting and the numbers, I'll never deal with him and his organisation ever again.


logic overwhelming~ Dennis has done an awful lot in e-sports and has been an integral part in some of the most enjoyable SC2 tournaments to date. You taking a dump on him because a peer has a valid reason for being upset with your wife makes you look childish and immature, imo.

The best thing Axiom can do for the community at this point is accept the blame they earned, apologize, and move on. Neither of you are going to do e-sports any favors by creating a shit storm of drama in an effort to save face.

Take the high road bro~


Accept blame?

I wasn't aware they were the ones trying to take it to the courts, that would be Take.

Oh that is so mature TB. I really agree witht you on most topics but you can't see that everyone made a mistake in this situation? You just trying to shitstorm him now... "classy".
To post privat discussion openly in a forum is a big no-no even if you don't want to see it his way. The lawbullshit by take it obviously just angryman talking and not smart either.
So everyone looses.

He's always causing shit storms.

what did take do?


Read Genna's previous blog for the backstory.

A TL;DR version is required... her blog is so long. Hopefully I'll remember to read it over the weekend. Then my opinion will change. But for now.. :S


So the TLDR version is this. Axiom committed to the ATC, but there were some communication issues regarding travel support. Axiom's budget couldn't support flying Axiom to the event due to WCS expenses, and the money provided by Acer wasn't enough to make up the difference. TaKe stepped in to try to find more money from Acer to help teams attend but wasn't able to make it work for Axiom.

Genna posted all of this in a blog, supported with emails and Skype logs between Axiom management and people involved with the ATC. TaKe, apparently, took offense at that and threatened legal action.

When you say someone threatened your wife and your team with legal action, is this the ONLY thing you are basing it on:
[6:51:33 AM] Dennis.Gehlen: actually i hope that by law
[6:51:40 AM] Dennis.Gehlen: this is something you can get punnished for?


Or is there more info that was not revealed?

Is this the first time you got threatened with legal action? My mom deals with that daily at her work with clients. Grow up. I got threatened with legal action and racism a couple days ago. You know what I did? I played it cool, stayed calm, and finished my transaction with the buyer.

That's a shame. This whole concept of a non-KeSPA team with such wonderful players, stable salaries, etc. really captivated me. I hope it's much the same under TB.

I'm very surprised, Axiom always felt like a real professional team, and business. Sure...

She posted something that was presumably never strictly confidential to explain to fans why she had to pull her team from Dennis' tournament that made everyone look like a decent person, and from which there was no indication of any true ill will.

TaKe responds by immediately threatening her with legal action, and then expects her to not post that online as well.

Seriously just a shitheadedly stupid move from this guy there.

What the actual fuck just happened. Genna was basically a mother to those players. I really hope the best for everyone.

Aww Genna :/ a sad day for esports, to lose such a great person and personality. Axiom will keep recieving my support of course, I'm sure TB will do just fine as the new manager and owner.

Good luck and remember:
In strength is victory.

Was there any legal basis? I'm sure there was as you are pretty reasonable, but still, she shouldnt let someone else destroy all her hardwork so easily.

This pretty much sums it up, I mean he didn't even suggest he wanted to. The guy barely speaks english on his own and you are taking his broken wishful thinking (note he said "wish) that its punishable by law? Pretty scummy really on your part to blow it out of proportion BUT I mean this is of course if that chat log is the entire reason this thing blew up. But hey in the end its your team now and you guys can do what you want but I feel like atleast the TL community should be the wiser to see something being just blown out of proportion rather than actually being a huge issue

edit: You are also the most condescending person to ever grace the youtube limelight (in reference to your reply on page 5 to this post I am quoting)
