What, you expect a statement the exact second that TSL's coach blows it up? Give them time and surely EG will give one, they haven't dodged anything controversial in the past. | ||

Fruitdealer, Rain and Tester due to their new direction / leadership and Puma without even talking to the coach before hand, wonder what the hell is going on over there. Fruitdealer / Tester are just lazy and don't want to follow practice schedules, rain got into code s by all -ining, and practically doesn't make it past the first round of code s (going to foreign scene for ez mode, but in his interview it seemed like he was already on planning on moving to the U.S), Puma left because he is a sell out | ||

What's up with all the drama getting stirred up without the full story even being out. I for one would be pleased if Puma is on EG. It'll be nice having a player besides IdrA on the team to wreck people.  | ||

People shouldn't be so eager to potentially burn bridges just for a short term money fix. What long run? The average progamer career lasts maybe 5 years, and if he's spending 2 of those slaving in a team house for room and board, with zero guarantees of becoming a bonjwa who really rakes in the money. With EG, he gets a salary and travel expenses all across the world, and he'll be sure to do really well at a lot of foreign tournaments. It's guaranteed income instead of some long shot chance. | ||

He noted that [...] "There needs to be a system to stop foreign teams from stealing Korean players like this" This statement actually worries me about Korea's attitude towards their players. For the growth of SC2, it's great that teams are fighting over players. I guarantee once the average top-end players start making enough salary to live comfortably (not luxurious, just comfortably) inside the US, the game will hit mainstream. Another key is to have one SC2 player "hit the big-time" (like a SlayerS_BoxeR) through showing exceptional characteristics and exciting play. I really believe that player for SC2 is TLO, he just needs to win a few high-end tournaments. That way someone could say to an 'outsider', "Ever heard of TLO?, he plays SC2." Someone everyone, from never hearing about SC2 to hardcore fans, can relate to. | ||

We are only going off what we have, what more facts can we check? lmfao.. how about you give us some instead of sitting on your high-horse and thinking of anyway you can justify this horrible display of ethics and lack of respect.. No response at all would be much more professional than this trash.. | ||
