I think it is a good thing that a well known public figure of our community speaks out against stuff like that, so thanks to you TB! | ||

Anyone else known for this secret organization of Koreans + Major who want to make some ez money xD Presumably you can add Dimaga to this list for the Roccat "partnership" although he will probably never play for them... | ||

We'll clean up the fake teams just like we did the real ones, but sod off none the less. Oh hey look at me, I have no investment in the scene and no empathy what-so-ever, I don't give a shit about how things are supposed to be done, but let me snark at someone who does because it'll somehow make me feel like I matter in some way. Yes, well done, you are special, now bugger off. | ||

We can discuss if an agency is a team or not but we decided it´s a positive addition to the league. Yuck. And it's not just him. It's pretty much general consensus that this is a bit farcical. I don't understand the sentence "our aim is to give as much teams the chance to play". You can have everyone and surely quality over quantity? One potential solution to this which could give more teams a chance but avoid all this 'joker' mess is to have two leagues. The main league and a qualification league running parallel with promotion and relegation. | ||

However it seems like ways have been found around that rule and as far as I'm concerned it's thoroughly sneaky and dishonest. Pretty much the way they have seen it is, oh we can get all these nice korean personalities playing? Oh wow yeah lets make Team Bounty Hunters. Then some teams moaned about it and they let them join with other teams as part of the agreement. Likes of EG Axiom and others don't seem to have known about this before hand ^_^ Seems very silly how they can just allow a team to be made out of thin air to play together just because it is "good" for the tournament. Like others have said this is a TEAM league not a 1v1 tournament where it is best you get all the good personalities playing. There is no doubt Bounty Hunters could win this team league comfortably and then how much more of a shit storm will be kicked up lol. All because ATC wanted a few more viewers because they have the likes of MC YoDa First playing etc. Seems a bit bm to the other teams. Well nothing you can do apart from boycotting the tournament which is not the way to go i might add. | ||

On a positive note, its great to see more awesome players in the league. It would have been preferable to have a bit more transparency so that every team knows about their options and the rosters of their opponents beforehand. I mean you can hire any mercenary as long as he has some kind of management... | ||

Also looks like Punchline picked up Firecake to try to have him single handedly qualify for ATC. Yeah looks like they didn't think about confirming rosters before the main tournament. The qualifiers seem a bit "hectic" to say the least  | ||
