I would too if I got cut of all the time.

Well, that's the difference between a regular guy who translates and contributes to the community and another guy who is running a business.

If you can stop the hate towards EG or the blind TL love for Milkis, this is a rather educational show.

AG is being a total dick to Milkis by cutting him off numerous times.


Well Milkis is talking, plainly speaking, bullshit right now. Deserves to be cut off. -_-

The thing is that has nothing to do with the debate. The shitting on EG is coming from them poaching players.

Now Korea will have contracts thanks to EG.

after listening to it, it sounds like Milkis is in a position where he is expected to talk but has nothing to say, just has to argue a counterpoint. What he is saying doesnt make any sense... Not because I think Milkis is stupid (Milkis I ♥ you) but I think his point fell apart a long time ago yet he is stuck in the debate because the show is still on :-(

Yeah this is all over the place. They established long ago that PuMa wasn't poached. (Or he was, but it has nothing to do with it anymore). This is a weird mix of developing esports, mixing of foreign/korean teams, player salaries and god knows.

It's incredibly clear what AG is doing. I don't know if he's aware of it or not (sometimes it becomes habitual for some people), but to the observant viewer, AG, is

1. Talking circles around Milkis, overwhelming him with words, also using Milkis, someone else said, as his personal strawman

2. Constantly interrupting

3. Constantly using too many pretty words to say simple things

4. Going down many different tangents and constantly changing points

It's all just cheap spin/debate tactics.

Nobody ever argued that, how the fuck did they end up there anyway?

I wish I could be as smooth talking as the EG guy. I'm probably worse than Milkis, at least he is making good arguments even if he's having problem articulating it.

Hmmm

I dunno, I feel like Milkis is just stuck in the old ways, personally.

This is so annoying, dear lord, DjWheat please step in and lead the discussion.


Milkis has lost the plot long ago. AG is the only one talking sens.


Even then at least let the man finish a fucking sentence. I think AG just really enjoys hearing himself speak.

They brought him on to speak and defend himself. This is what you get in those situations.

This is boring im done its going in circles, this is just about how he treated the deal with puma/tsl, it is NOT about growing esports globally and its a pointless discussion now :s

Yeah I completely agree, he was taken in because he translated, and is now expected to be the voice of the korean scene and encompass all their opinions.

Simply put, they invited the wrong person and is using it to their advantage.

Why is everyone making such a big deal about this. The entire issue is just that the TSL coach is upset because they didn't talk to him first. EG thought that they had gone about things the proper way but when realizing TSL was upset, apologized. And now it has turned in to some huge debate about international esports. wtf.

Precisely. He works with this every day at a professional level.


I think everyone needs to take a stepback and let go of BW.

Lets be honest.

Is it really best for Korea to be so inclusive? Think it's time to break down that barrier. Korea scared stiff?
