oov, I am disappoint. Hahaha that's really funny, saying that oov even went into retirement instead of just doing mandatory military service; that going back to head coaching SKT, one of the oldest and most respected esports teams, is a terrible occupation; and that oov, one of the few legends who was there while they built the fucking industry and was eating ramen and cleaning dishes when there wasn't even a thing like stable salary contracts, is the type of person who would just lash out and find any reason to put down "people enjoying your old job" when there is no professional BW left now.

I wish your words were misinterpreted. You do realize that he was one of the only people in the world who can even say that he actually personally contributed to providing a reasonable environment for playing BW and getting money right? Like a decade ago? Alongside people like Boxer? Kids these days. You have any source about oov's contributions or are you saying that anyone around during the early days also contributed to the scene? If legends don't contribute, who do?
You know who else was a legend who had no business destroying the scene regardless of any contribution they had made?

lol sorry then if translation is incorrect
but im pretty sure its not so far from what he said
koreans are 1# country at jumping the high horse and acting like parangons of moral
to me it pretty much looks like a direct attack from kespa / ogn to the afreeca scene
it always worked this way....

thats pretty much the fucking truth
when it comes to business, from my own personal experience, koreans always act like douches and hypocrits
what oov said is so so so korean ....

No one is saying oov didn't contribute. Every progamer and progaming related job contributed. I was interested in knowing how oov stood out from the rest in changing the industry to be one where players earnt a stable salary. Did he form a players' union of some sort?

just to clarify in case people still think there is mistranslation:
- iloveoov heavily condemning bisu playing with savior (guilty by association) and saying "bisu isn't sparing a thought for what savior did and the negative impact he left on the scene and other players"
- and because of that, also condemns all other streamers who are also playing with savior, not just any streamer.

guess oov going apeshit is a big indicator of the original pro scene decline and soon death

Srsly, more Korean-Americans come forward with your shitty translations and anti-BW conspiracy theories.
Everyone else go research what's being said instead of reading the two most recent posts and giving your uninformed opinion.
EDIT: Yes people that do TRANSLATIONS read the entire article and try to understand the context. They are also careful about the implications of their translations. They don't stir shit by extrapolating from an open interpretation of a particular segment of the interview.

I thought anyone who associates themselves to sonic's tournaments, by rule are not allowed to associate with people involved in the scandal though?

Get the fk out son: "when it comes to business, from my own personal experience, koreans always act like douches and hypocrits"
The only person on their high moral ground in this thread is you.
One person's interpretation de-railed this entire thread into a pointless SC2 vs BW discussion. As much as I dislike SC2 and like BW, the idiocy of the people attacking iloveoov and SC2 is making this community look bad.
iloveoov is the HEAD coach of SKT, and he is still incredibly skeptical (yet hopeful) of Blizzard's development of SC2: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=430737. He is one of the most recognized strategists who continued to study and develop the game after he wasn't able to physically compete anymore. He is the last person you can accuse of abandoning the game.

yeah but in the translation oov states bisu plays with savior. either he knows something we dont or he misunderstood about bisu watching his old games (which i highly doubt, given that we're talking about oov here)

but we dont know for sure if bisu DID indeed play with savior (there were rumors that they did though, right?). and i'm sure there are some players who go around this rule. even sonic admitted there was matchmaking long time ago and still continued anyway. it's kind of those evil that can't be fully eradicated sadly. you can't 100% stop one player from playing with another on the internet.

Yeah that's why this is the first warning any person in Korea will often give you when you try doing business.
edit: this is so fucked up i'm so tired of this bye

It was July.
Also, I'd take what iloveoov has to say with a grain of salt. He was far from exemplary himself, and always had these kind of tendencies to talk brashly without giving things too much thought. That being said, it's stupid to counter-balance that by pretending that what's past is past, and we should embrace sAviOr with open arms now. It doesn't matter if dickheads like Justin were more heavily involved in these match-fixing business, sAviOr was meant to be the chosen one, the guy everybody expected to be the next e-Sports superstar after in a manner similar to BoxeR, but instead he threw it all away, and the level of betrayal was beyond repair. I really don't know why being blase about it somehow makes people feel better, when almost every single one of us here would have much rather prefered to see the Starcraft scene flourish like in the past, rather than watch it degrade to a casual level, with a washed-up, unapologetic sell-out like sAviOr being the centre of attention. It may be overboard to witch-hunt sAviOr every single moment available, but the guy just asks to be hounded upon with his attitude, and I have nearly zero sympathy with someone who savours being the "controversial" figurehead of the community and profits off that, and brings down the level of people surrounding him. He is a cancerous being, and what started off as a simple mistake for an inexperienced kid, has evolved into something far more toxic. There's nothing about the guy right now that reminds me of the genius who gave the scene a breath of fresh air, and looked like the one who would take the scene to the next level.
