If they can ban IdrA for unsportsman-like conduct, we can boycott ESL for un-league-like conduct. I say do it.
Well this isn't settled yet, so wait a little bit for the dust to clear.

I agree. Unless you planned on banning IdrA since the first round, where the most recent violation was made, this ban is completely ridiculous.

and i just realized, you JUST added the 2nd set of penalty points despite there being no instances of bm before you disqualified me.

people noticed that i had 2, and only 2, penalty points after i wouldnt let the caster in. and nothing has happened since then. so you just added 2 more points with absolutely no justification in order to cover your asses.

you people are a joke.


This is the nail in ESL's coffin.

I'd like to know what ESL Europe's position is on this.

The only logical move for ESL is to admit they made a mistake regarding what happened with StrifeCro and the non-communication with involved players, and let the games that need to be played, played, and just move on. If they don't, regardless of what they do in the future, this will be remembered and only sour their reputation.

I think the only way to settle this is with a BO5 Showmatch between IdrA and the admins...>=)

Can the admins play as a team?

This sort of drama isn't good for anyone, especially the SC2 community. Hopefully ESL & IdrA can sort it out, because let's be honest, who doesn't wanna see IdrA play?
Lee Jae Dong proved that a focus on mechanics and execution could solve problems in the StarCraft game strategy.

We need contact emails for ESL, IEM, etc.
If all of TL sends an email regarding this, ESL will be forced to make a change.

Yes, the ESL rules clearly establish what happens because of insults, but do those rules cover if an ESL official incites the player (by calling him a "joke" amongst other things)?

The first thing the ESL needs to do is understand their disorganization and the obvious mistakes they have made running the tournament. Without doing that there is no hope of them understanding IdrA's (rightfully) angry response and it makes them look ridiculous as a "serious" e-sports organization.

Having multiple people from the ESL responding with contrasting statements regarding the ban (season or week) and adding penalty points after the fact certainly isn't helping.

Regardless of who's right, I think the fact that ESL admins posted on the forums without congregating and making an official statement is a sign of incompetency. It doesn't matter if the IdrA ban is justified, this is simply not how things are done.

The difference between esports and real sports, is people in real sports are taller, and can actually win or lose with dignity and manners.
