This thing is actually a lot smaller than what it seems, Coach Lee is pissed that EG didn't contact him personally. That is it. That's what all the evidence points to, all this ESPORTS stuff that AG is talking about is completely out of left-field | ||

It sounds like they've been planning for a long time to pick up a Korean for the team, but ran into this barrier that they just could not afford. The new plan became to find the up and comer within their range and grab him before he gets a transfer fee/contract. NASL/GTSL was PuMa's pre-contract breakout and they jumped at it before TSL had the chance. | ||

They will be ok if you pay enough. But enough is different concepts for people. You can't say its too expensive so you dont like that system and you want that system to change. Now that is wrong. | ||

Alex has zero clue about Brood War or the Korean scene. Milkis has zero clue what TSL are thinking and he's totally nervous. It's just going around in circles. | ||

1. Approach the coaching staff as a courtesy, considering you are talking about taking one of their players. 2. It just seems bad form to recruit a player from another team while he's in the process of winning your tournament under that team. If you had the infrastructure to pursue a top korean progamer, i'm certain you could have pursued this either pre or post tournament. imho anyway. | ||

They could have told him to not talk to the coach at all. They could have prevented this information from reaching the press. They could have done ANY NUMBER of things to keep this a secret until some kind of binding legal arrangement. In fact, if I were a team manager and wanted to sneak a player away, I would be slamming EG for being total fucking idiots about it. Unpaid player with no contract now has opportunity to get paid for their passion? Victory for starcraft2. More money from outside of korea coming into the scene? Victory for starcraft2. The only sad thing to me is if the coach was using money from his own pocket to keep this player in the team house. But it is the coach's fault for not enforcing a contract, like EVERY OTHER sport or league of significance. That mistake will not be made again. My biggest fear is that korean teams are now going to their players and saying: "here is a shitty contract where the korean league and the korean team have all the power, take it or never play sc for a korean team". But that is just protectionist bullshit. Basically you are saying he was in a semi-slave situation, while most people see it as an opportunity to get a piece of the cake of e-sports. To me, it does not justify how EG approached this. | ||
