RootPrincess/SixjaxMajor caught smurfing in tourny - Page 6

Page 26 and onwards I will issue at least two day bans to anyone who clearly has not read the original topic post and the explanations contained therein. He was barred access to the event days before the actual event took place and used some random diamond player his account to try and get in anyway.

Leave the racial bias at the door while you are at it as well pretty please.

Smurfing and lying about it = keeping it real? Real assholish I suppose.

Major doesn't act nice to impress anyone, he plays to win, to win the moolah.

He's the badboy of South America, Starcraft 2 division.

Wasn't Haypro caught MHing in BW? Isn't he on TLAF? Funny how things work out.

Well then he fails quite hard.

I saw ROOTPrincess as the title and knew it was going to be juicy.

that is all


what, so that ambiguity justifies him directly going against what the tournament organiser + sponsor tells him to do, and in the process acts like a total douchebag? yeah...

This shouldn't really come as news in the slightest. He's always been a shit. Unfortunate this happened to the tournament.

When you're playing games, of all things, to make a living, you have to make ends meet. Major plays for money, just like any other athlete, whether e-sport or not. He has his reasons, even if they were against others, to make money. Besides, not many of the people who are complaining in this thread have devoted their career to play games, so not many of us can truly comprehend how important winning money tournaments are, regardless of the methods used.

He's not from South America. He's from Mexico, which is in North America.

And he's not the bad boy of anywhere. He's just immature.

ROFL. Jesus christ, I'm not sure if this was brought up yet, but Juan has done this before. I believe he used to smurf into WCG USA Online Tournaments.

I'm in need of money too, but you don't see me breaking rules to make some cash. He broke the rules and acted like a complete dick. I'm sure if he terribly needed some cash he could contact his team.

professional gaming is his career, everyone does things that are frowned upon once in a while, from driving like shit cuz you're late to work to telling your clients a lie,etc.
will you suffer the consequences if you get caught? yes. but sometimes you have to take the risk. i'm not taking his side, he should be punished, but i understand why he sometimes does these things.

Maybe if he spent his time training to win major tournaments instead of being a cheating douchebag he wouldn't have to worry about it?

Honestly, it was against the rules and all, but this is exactly why I feel restricting people based on where they're born/where they live is a stupid thing to do. Why exactly does it matter if it's just people from SEA? How does the tournament benefit at all from limiting the player pool based on nationality?


It supports the SEA community directly? For example, if there were to be a league in SEA that has a 50k prize pool every month, then there would be more SEA players who would try to get good enough to win them, and teams may arise from there (if not SEA players just joining SEA teams, or new ones forming).


Isn't this the exact same argument people have over inviting koreans to MLG/NASL/etc?? And it's been widely agreed that it's much better to open up tournaments for everyone who wants to participate no matter where they live/are born/currently play?

I'm pretty sure it's largely agreed that inviting koreans is a good decision, and it's the same issue here. I'm all for limiting people based on whether or not they are pros/what league they're in just so it's not a massive skill level difference, but not letting major participate just because he's not from SEA is a silly decision in general.
