I thought the players association was supposed to be there to take care of the players, not the teams/coaches. If anything I'd imagine that they'd side with Puma, but I may be missing out on some of the finer points of his contract. | ||

If you want more regulated competition for players and want to be serious as other sports, then the argument should be for a regulating league or body to oversee these things. | ||

What interests me is that someone stated that some Korean teams may start to be hesitant in sending their players to foreign tournaments now. This might be true, but at the same time I guess they should do a better at keeping their players happy in terms of money, practice partners, etc. This could hurt the globalization of sc2 competition, but at the same time, more and more koreans are joining foreign teams which is a good thing. At the end of the day its a great deal for EG, they are one of my favourite teams and they have 2 of my favourite players in incontrol and idra and with Puma joining them the team will only get better. EG also needed a terran badly, I think demuslim is their only other terran since lz switched to Z. This is a big surprise though lol. | ||

Does this mean he'll remain in Korea, rather than heading to the EG house? I really hope so, for his sake. Players practice with their teams and friends, eg. Byun practicing with MKP, SC, etc. But if Puma's in America, he can't, lag doesn't allow for a stable training environment. The only decent team mate he could practice with would be Idra, and even then, lower than what was on offer in Korea. | ||

Puma had so much skill from Brood War that it was ridiculous. Puma would have been successful on ANY team or even on his own if he really wanted to. The fact that coach lee made that statement is bullshit. TSL is trying purposely to make EG look bad, but the truth is that if Puma can be more happy on EG then it doesn't matter. They weren't giving Puma a salary, but they were giving Fruitdealer a salary? What has Fruitdealer done since GSL1? TSL could have made a better offer when Puma said he was interested in joining EG, but they didn't and chose to immaturely bash EG for being able to treat the player better and offer a better deal. Do you know whats disgusting? TSL's public statements about EG. | ||

EG: Hmm, actually there's no reason we need your permission. See ya. The only reasonable message that EG could send is: Hi TSL, we think Puma is a great player and plan to give him an offer. Cheers. Which basically amounts to nothing at all. thats retarded, of course that would amount to something. if the coach had gotten the a message like that before the deal was done then he wouldve talked to puma and discussed it with him, ask him what he wants and what hes unhappy with and etc. | ||
