If both sides benefit from this then there is nothing wrong. Korean culture, blah blah blah, they need to understand this is a GLOBAL game. Their culture and high moral standards are not the norm for the rest of the world and you either sign your players to legally binding contracts or expect them to get better, more lucrative offers and gladly accept them.
Anyone saying what Puma did here is wrong is delusional.
Scenario A: Puma stays with TSL, has to bank his ENTIRE sc2 tournament winnings on ONE tournament, and rarely leaves Korea for international tournaments. We'll assume hes getting paid, but obviously less than he would with EG.
Scenario B: Puma joins EG, gains a higher salary, and travels all over the world to multiple events while gaining notoriety and more opportunities for cash prizes.
Yea.... I'd like to see how many people take Scenario A.
It's very simple. Had EG contacted TSL for the said player "PuMa", it's more than likely that TSL agreed to having the player join the team EG and everyone would have been happy. But because EG went behind the player's team and his coach/manager, we now ended up with this retarded fiasco. That makes sense. Sirscoots:"Hey Coach Lee we want you're best player" Coach Lee: Sure Scoots! Now would that make any sense xD Right.... so the other option must be to steal the player behind the team's back. That makes even more sense If TSL and Lee feel betrayed, they shouldn't sit with their back to the door. What can they do? Block communications with everyone outside of the team house?

..because it could have been the same type of contract that Torch got? You know, the one that only stipulates that he needs to represent ST in Korea, but VT Gaming outside. It was basically the same type of thing SK is doing.
This is totally different.

Shouldn't the player be the only person involved in making a decision about themselves?
I mean, unless there is some type of contract that is involved.

More like: If you can't make them, buy them!

Incontrol will reveal what kind of dog he will be getting. My guess.

Thank you EG thank you so much for smashing yet another hole in my fantasy team
good for them I guess tho kinda weird that they cut in on PuMa when he was already on a team there should be a way to protect players. makes me feel real bad for coach Lee

SixJax Clide make it happen Artosis! Pretty cool that foreign teams are acquiring top level Koreans now. Hopefully foreigners start to compete better against Koreans because of it.

Coming from EG, I'm not surprised.

did incontrol use the word 'exactly 5 minutes '
it's now 6 mins past.

So you contract a player who currently is on another team - apparently not speaking with this other team (at least looking like that from Coach Lee's statement) and then expect them to be silent about it? I mean I don't even have a too strong opinion on the actual issue as such, but not having an emergency press release ready is just asking for bad PR.
