Quite amazed how much shit talking there is directed at a seventeen year old boy.
Like he knows any better, and like his actions in his teens have any baring on his success in the future once he matures and becomes an adult.
Look at Idra. He's still acting like a kid, getting better to be fair but he's got a long way to go.
I wish this kid luck, and hope he gets a better ID.

This is such a strange statement. I plan on spending an extreme amount of time learning some new job skills but I won't be rewarded financially until they produce results. This just sounds greedy to me. Yes I know english is not his first language. It's obvious he said what he meant here. I'm guessing you Don't know how things work in real sports. Rookies are given huge contracts based on their potential. Terran has shown he has great potential so a team pays him based on what they think that potential is worth. If anything you can blame the team, but don't blame the player for taking money people are willing to give him. MLB and NBA both have rookie wage scales. Therefore only after proving skills and providing certain results will they receive a big contract, as it should be. The NFL is the only major league that pays these huge rookie contracts and that is probably going away in the near future. So maybe you don't understand how sports work. Even if you do, that isn't my point. I'm pointing out that expecting a certain amount of support because you state that you plan on playing quite a bit, coupled with the fact that there isn't a whole lot of results from him YET, just seems slightly awkward to me. I think those kinds of comments could and should have been held back in lieu of results. The fact that he seemingly has what he wants now is a good thing though, and I'll be watching his results very closely. I agree it is a little odd but you cant blame the kid for wanting money when teams are willing to give it to him.

My bet is on 1 month and 5 days

Good luck to Artosis, sixjax and Juan! I hope this is a good arrangement for everyone involved and that it lasts a few years.

Yes you do. There are very, very few jobs that pay up front. Everyone will have to work under agreed conditions before being paid. Yeah, my point is that there's an agreement or contract reached beforehand. You don't just go to work all week and then ask if maybe they'll agree to pay you. You agree on that before hand. Which is what he's saying: he wants to be compensated for playing the game.

Root lost a player
I've heard this kid's got potential, although between names like Princess, Kitty, and now just vanilla "Terran", someone really needs to give him a good ID.
Props to Artosis for picking up a strong player!

Artosis protege, this will be the Amerian Oove. Can't wait to see what will be in store.

It sounds to me like he is not sure what he wants to do. "I've been looking for sponsors because of serious the foreigner SC2 scene is, and I feel like I should be rewarded financially for how much time I've been planning to put in." I hope he misspoke there. There are a lot of people that put a ton of time into playing SC2 and looking for sponsors. By that statement it sounds like he isn't willing to put the time in until he gets paid. Kind of like looking for a job that requires college and saying "I've been planning to go to college, once you pay me I will go". Doesn't sound good at all.

This shouldnt last too long

Lol i love how people act like young people dont know any better. So foolish

pretty great interview, good thing he does know how to answer especially with the "most overrated player in NA?" since it's going to bring him animosity 
Anyway, I think his going to be in sixjax for quite sometime. If he has 6 months of contract that means 6 months of being bonded to the team. But, then if he is going to suck and don't get results, just means his going to hop again
|
I suppose copying and pasting the thread comment sfrom "Kitty joins root" should suffice for this thread, lol.
But for all the hype of this guy, has he really had any showing whatsoever at online events? I mean if he wants money, surely he can win some online stuff while trying to get that sponsorship money to attend live events.

20 pages of 'lmao this shouldn't last long' has been insanely constructive.

Should it be 20 pages of "congrats artosis"? That's nice and all but it doesn't seem too constructive either.
|
I got worried when I saw the player they took in, and I got panicked when I read the interview. The guy who's doing the interview are using words such as "shittiest map" on a fron page interview when picking up a new member. Poor Artosis 
I guess the kid's gotta get payed for the time he plans that he might put into the game he doesn't like. Oh well. Best of luck.
