Yes, Jaedong is not a bonjwa. He is the GOAT.

If Kespa keeps walking this path soon it will be impossible to go to another team. | ||

If Kespa keeps walking this path soon it will be impossible to go to another team. It is completely logical from Kespa's standpoint, for the exact reason you noted: "whittles down every progamer's choices". You can argue that it's morally wrong. You can argue that it should be illegal. But you can't say it's illogical. | ||

I think a lot of people are more upset about the state of the industry rather than just jaedong. Even non-fanboys can see that something is seriously wrong with the whole situation, for all players, but especially jaedong. If jaedong isn't actually bringing in money enough for his to justify a bigger salary, then pro starcraft might not be sustainable. If you get treated like shit for doing a 24h job, then pro starcraft might not be an okay career choice. Either way, our pastime will suffer. Let's face it, everyone here wants to see him play. We can't say that his parent's are bad for looking out for him (under these circumstances, why shouldn't he retire), but if you don't desire good starcraft, why are you here? | ||

In my view he is nothing special at all, then again I'm an old timer and look back at the 4 kings for inspiration. Anyways, this thread is dumb. How is Jaedong being treated like shit btw, the guy just won another Starleague and god knows how much money he has made from Starcraft already. It's also funny how no one EVER tries to look for anything good in Kespa. People hop on the "Kespa sucks" bandwagon but I'm not sure if everyone understands why. Do you have any idea how much Kespa has done for Esports?? | ||

is it that no team wants to bid for jaedong cuz he would turn out to be way too expensive, and now he either accepts to stay in OZ or retires? and could someone explain what's the problem with kespa please? is it that they force the player to negotiate with his highest bidding team only? or is there something else fucked up now? sorry...thanks  | ||

And JD won those titles because he worked like a madman, doesn't have much to do with how he's being treated. It's not an unreasonable Kespa sucks bandwagon, it's just pretty obvious that the FA system sucks, a.o. reasons cause of players having no decision over what team they're gonna go to | ||

It will seriously break my heart if Jaedong's parents deny an offer he himself wants to take (and I can only assume he does not want to retire right now). | ||

That said, I'm pretty sure that he won't retire. He's Lee Jaedong, he's probably one of the most dedicated SC players I've ever seen. He also seems very happy on Hwasung Oz, even if they are putting a lot of pressure on him like his parents say. I hope his parents don't try and make his decisions for him. Hwasung Oz isn't trying to cut his salary next season, are they? | ||

I don't see how there are some people who arent bothered by this. I don't imagine he wants to stop. If he did, thats a different story. How could it not be a story about how KeSPA is ruining their own sprots if debatably the best player ever is essentially forced to retire? They need to have more control over what they do. If this happens to Jaedong, whos to say it wont happen more often, to other players, and affect the sport it ways we really can't put our finger on. This sort of control will dimish the quality of the sport. It makes me sad to think he would retire with so much potential left. I fail to see how this could not sadden someone. | ||
