Coach Lee is always so nice. He has such a good heart I hope his team's situation ends up better. | ||

HOWEVER, did you contact EG and get their side of the story/EG seal of approval, before posting this? If you didn't I think it hurts the journalist integrity of teamliquid. You also shouldn't put this on community news because it's biased. /sarcasm | ||

+ Show Spoiler + just kidding Very solid interview, I'm glad we have his whole side of the story now that he is calmer. This really makes me respect Korean players a lot more because they practice and sacrifice much more than foreigners despite the smaller rewards and fan bases. GL puma and TSL And of course, thanks very much to whoever translated this (: Most of us appreciate it | ||

The best players are in Korea (look how much Huk improved from practicing there). The hardest competition is in Korea. Therefore, the best players should stay in Korea. Yeah, having a foreign scene is cool, but Korea has proven that they will stick with it for years and years, while this foreign scene could be a flash in the pan for all we know. I hope we don't just start buying up people so we can kill the small and fragile SC2 scene there. | ||

It was during the counter-strike 1.6. Complexity's entire Counter-Strike roster was basically poached by EG without any knowledge of Jason Lake | ||

This needs to be solved in order for Starcraft 2 to flourish as an e-sport. Is this true? I wouldn't doubt it, they compare the fan base to its older brother Brood War. Nothing will top that. | ||

I honestly hope their players get booed at MLG, I dont think they will take anything the community says seriously until their sponsors notice. | ||

Yes, they treat one another like extended family. There is more meaning there. KeSPA is going to have a really hard time turning SC2 around once they get involved. Blizzard handled the product very poorly there. | ||

I wouldn't rely on a player to relay your discussion to the coach (after he already makes a decision)? Talk to the management directly. | ||
