I think people are forgetting, if you forfeit your gaming license you cannot be a progamer for 5 years. Jaedong cannot just "rest for 5 months" and then return back immediately. Even if he could, he would have to go through draft again, then wait another month for proleague roster to refresh etc etc. | ||

But I will hate that he would get a contract with Oz for like 140M won... thats not worth carrying his team until Proleague finals. | ||

Jaedong retiring is bad for everyone. Its bad for viewers because it removes a great player, it's bad for other players because it sets a bad precedent in player-team relations, and it's bad for KeSPA/Teams because it will hurt Esports in the long run. | ||

(did you think I am serious with that post) How the hell I'm going to be happy if The Dong retires? He is like a big hero for me because of his uncanny mental state and limitless determination! | ||

Jaedong is being suspended 5 years? I am truly amazed, this is pure blackmailing. Progamers really are owned by Kespa :-D | ||

This is their way of artificially making it so zergs are as a whole weaker than the previous season. For example, after the six dragons started doing well, the next map pool included ...battle royal, a completely zerg favoured map. After both the osl and the msl have ZvZ finals, KeSPA has decided that zergs are too strong and now they want to get rid of the top zerg. Kespa is stupid, but so is your theory -.- | ||

Player's Association. In every pro sport league there is one, that protects players from this stuff. Sure, the league is relatively small, but I want to see KeSPA not negotiate when players decide to go on strike if demands are not met. Considering that the whole marketing for BW pro play is based on stars, they'd have to be reasonable - otherwise all the money they spent on advertising Flash, Bisu, Jaedong and other players that went diving would work against them. edit: the whole worker union thing has been tested, and the way I see it, they are turning teams into high-paying entertainment sweatshops. In any change of rules, all sides are supposed to be a part of the move, leaving the players out of the loop is called abusive management. second edit: If Jaedong decides to go to a US college, it'll be funny seeing him rip apart the CSL. | ||

I'm beginning to understand what Day[9] meant. I can't find any English version of KESPA rules. But this kind of stuff is ridiculous. So yeah, any room on the fuck KESPA bandwagon ? | ||

Even if they did change the rules, the other teams would show respect for JD's wish to stay in Oz and Oz could still just pay the same salary. How do you know that at all? Only one team publicly said that. The enormous cost of signing him and backroom collusion are what kept him from getting signed by another team. | ||
