This guy is terrible at keeping consistent lol, hes gone from saying they b asically had no intention to recruit him and jhust provided him with a card, to spending hours upon hours with his management securing the budget to provide players like puma this opportunity. To be honest he should probably just stop 'cause hes running circles around himself

Baseless speculation and EG flaming based on only a disgruntled misinformed coach's public statement.

Edit: That was the past 200 pages of the thread.

EG hands Puma a card. Puma says he'll talk to coach about it, no worries. Puma talks to TSL coach. TSL coach thinks he's already been signed(?), feels slighted, and releases Puma with a public statement. But EG hasn't really signed Puma? What?


I think Puma *might* have been overconfident on his ability to discuss this with Coach Lee. Which might be the main problem.

Wow I hadn't seen this before. Pretty interesting when you compare it..


EG been bringing the drama for years. The time period between each piece of drama just seems to be shortening now.

"Can't have it both ways" is a dodge of the main point. I wouldn't argue that Korean teams should be immune from having their players approached and bought out, but I would say that EG did fail to respect the other team in this situation and put themselves in this situation by putting it on Puma to handle this by himself. EG should've approached the coach themselves without making Puma the middleman and focal point for the feud between the two parties.

Nothing in that is contradictory.

Take this statement:

"I've spent several months thinking about getting Korean translators."

"I ran into Milkis and gave him my card."

I can have the intention to get Korean translators without having the express intention of hiring Milkis.

Because people who have no place in the discussion like to give their input on teams business practices they disagree with.

Yup this. Coach Lee fucked over his player publicly by jumping to conclusions.

Honestly, at this point, it almost sounds like it's Puma's fault for, firstly, suggesting that he himself be the one to approach Coach Lee, and secondly, for not explaining the situation clearly to Coach Lee. >.<
