Think the issue would be with the legal costs of taking it to trial and if it's really worth the time and money. Would be nice to finally have it go that far though.

Heh, delpan probably didn't even read what he was signing for when he actually joined fnatic.

You shouldn't make blanket statements like this without ANY knowledge.
There are clauses within contracts that require buyout fees from other teams that want to sign a contracted player. For example, EG paid mTw the buyout fee to sign DeMuslim to a new contract, this happens regularly. Fnatic and SK contracts always require buyout clauses which SK did not deal with. My assumption is that they either didn't know that Delpan was not formally released yet, or they knew but didn't want to deal with it, and they just wanted to make the signing official since they knew Delpan would be leaving.

It is to SC players moreso than counterstrike players. My guess is Delpan should also be at fault since he probably pulled a Gux and told SK that he had been released and was ready to sign a new contract. Miscommunication and misinformation.

It is completely standard for all contracts to include these. Why would an organization want to have signed a player to a 12 month contract or 2 year contract for xxx amount of potential money involved just to have their player become a superstar and then immediately get taken by another team for no compensation? Thats not a shitty clause its completely, as CatZ would say, Standard.

It's very large in terms of players, there aren't as many people who sit at home and watch others play it but the player pool is as large if not larger than SC2 in many parts of the world.

Delpan: Lions SK Fnatic SK Gux: SK Fnatic SK Fnatic Lions Fnatic. Holy.... I don't follow CS but that's ridiculous.
In fairness to Delpan, he was only a standin for SK the first time around, so it's closer to "Lions->Fnatic->SK", which isn't that bad. He shined in his time with Lions, then stepped in for SK, then got an offer from fnatic - and now he has found out that things arent't going the way he expected them to.

That's an entirely different thing. SC1 is played by one person (fair enough you practice with other players, but when it's game time it's all on you, and no one else). In CS you've got five people who have to mesh and work together at any given time - now if 1 out of 5 is not doing as he should (whether it's performance or attitude), then it'll fuck everything up for the remaining 4 - if you then were to get an offer to join someone you've meshed well with in the past, then it's not hard to see why one would accept such an offer. Playing without any form of joy wears you down pretty quickly, and when you've been playing a game for such a long time, you'll find it harder to motivate yourself to keep playing..
.. you get the driftt

Before that it was two small clans into a "gun for hire" state since people needed 5ths and he was available so he was temporarily on Lions til he was replaced, then SK while SK was looking for proper replacements for walle and gux. Which led to GTR and f0rest. Point being he's been on a lot of teams the past 18 months lol. Gux is even worse though
Completely agree with the second statement though ;o

Are there no legal bindings when a player is signed ? The biggest error in this case seem to be the contract. A larger governing body in E-sports maybe could help the teams provide this ? I hate the idea myself but maybe weve come to the point where a fifa or a kespa is needed in the foreign community.

Well I lost my respect for SK long time ago. They just make retarded moves all the time, I'm glad they're not the premier gaming organisation they used to be.

Dunno why SK cares so much about dead/dying FPS games. Instead of trying to put together a "championship" CS team (which will in all likelihood still get destroyed by NaVi) they should focus on getting some decent SC2 players...

There's still a good amount in Europe and Asia though. The game is pretty dead elsewhere.

HLTV.org releases their interview with Theslash, SK managing director.
fnatic released last night a statement saying that Delpan had not yet been released. What is the current situation of the player? Is he still tied to fnatic with a contract?
First and foremost, this is a question only Marcus and fnatic can answer. From our point of view, we have worked out a deal with Marcus and in order for him to focus on his new team, we want him to have no problems whatsoever. So we told Fnatic that we are interested in looking at a "buy-out" situation. Interesting is though that the situation is similar to what happened less than 12 months ago, only this time it is the other way around. Back then, fnatic refused to accept that Rasmus was in a legally binding contract with SK.
It is good to see fnatic insisting on contracts between organizations and players to be respected again and I can only hope they will argue the same way when they are approaching a player in the future, regardless for which team he is playing. Anyway, the team wanted Delpan, we negotiated, the player wants to make the move and we are willing to buy him out of a contract between Fnatic and Marcus, it is that simple.
But fnatic said Gux was not contracted to SK...
We did release the photo of the signed contract. How can you say he was not signed?
There's more in the interview, you can read the rest on HLTV.org http://www.hltv.org/news/6900-theslash-willing-to-buy-delpan
