I wonder why Naniwa wants to haul ass to Korea so fast, when he has such a great place. Naniwa wasn't invited... Also he's said long before the pro-house went up that he wanted to go to Korea. Way to make a completely stupid point... | ||

You have such little information in your brain about the incident but you come to such conclusions somehow?. Breaking a contract only happens if you are not released from the contract. Puma was released from his contract by request. Also, consider that a player of puma's calibur might not have even been making a salary. $0 vs a steady income. If this is the case (which it may well not be, I'll admit), do people really want to see a top player like him be denied what he deserves? | ||

Korea SC2 is very small at the moment and alot of teams are having hard time financially to keep them in one piece ( look at fOu team) in order to have stable SC2 scene in korea, there needs to be major companies backing them(samsung, korean air, shinhan bank..etc.) btw, Prime team's main sponsor, sabasaba chicken, did not renew their sponsorship after they expired and now Prime team is also without a sponsorship. IM is sponsored by Coca Cola and Googims. ST is also sponsored by a ton of people. | ||

It's called expectations. People expect idra to win tournaments. He hasn't done that. Therefore he's doing bad. | ||

Good to know thanks for the correction, for those teams at least, but wasn't IM or someone sponsored by Coke? Pretty major company IMO./ | ||

After scoots talked about sk/fnatic not doing things the right way and then supposedly stealing puma there must be a good reason OR scoots is scum. I would like to believe the former. I hope it was just something like puma not being a salaried player and as such not being contractually bound to the team. Surprisingly there wasnt a similar reaction when fd and trickster left tsl. The difference is that FD and Trickster both left with the blessings of the TSL coach. So much so that Trickster, when he was trying to find a team to join, actually still consulted with his old coach to figure out what type of environment would suit him best and factored that into his decision. | ||

Well Coca Cola is sponsoring IM now. But I'm not familiar with any others really. EG does have a mainstream sponsor as well. Monster. | ||

That's a great point and hopefully it will shut up the people saying, "Haha well I guess the TSL coach must be doing something wrong since he's been losing players left and right!" | ||
