Childish, unprofessional... the whole situation with this bloke and TSL seems pretty fucked to me if this is the case. Please tell me that this isn't the norm in Korean competitive gaming. Apparently all of your conlcusion after your "gathering" is all wrong and almost have nothing to do with this thread -_- | ||

It's good for people to realize that there's more than one side to the story, and that what the main consensus may believe isn't always right. A shame to see all this crap being thrown around left and right, but at the very least it'll teach a valuable lesson. Hopefully, one that does not have to be repeated. | ||

I mean korea had been doing esport bigger and longer than anywhere else (as far as I know), it's kind of strange to see how problem like "no contract, relying only on good faith" can still occur | ||

Do you expect your boss to pay you if you don't show up for work either? I agree that in theory what he did was right, but you can't just ignore contracts. The contracts should be designed in a way that takes account of practice time, probably through bonuses, that way players have motivation to practice. From the sounds of it TSL has been being run awfully, the team is basically the top players from just after release, who wanted a more relaxed practice regime. Add to that some sponsorship money so they could afford to pay some of those players wages meant that their results suffered and some of the players with wages got too comfortable. I'm speculating here, but I imagine maybe the sponsors threatened to cut some of the funding and either because of that, or at a similar period, some of the players on TSL decided they wanted to improve the results, which lead to Fruitdealer and Trickster being confronted. | ||

Because the whole thing about Puma is not about he defaming Puma or Puma being lusted by money and leave TSL, its about EG approaching Puma behind Lee's back, which is unacceptable. But that's another story and it alsmost has nothing to do with this thread and we should stop talking about that. | ||

 I hope everything will be sorted out with more information available and TSL will not get disbanded. | ||

Additionally half the people criticizing EG were focusing on their communication with the foreign community anyway. | ||

Note: I'm not saying blame one way or another, it's just that the action taken doesn't make sense to me no matter who's right or wrong. | ||

Contract's are always 2-way, never 1-way. FD/Trickster gets money but what does TSL get? Since thats pretty much what you mean by saying contracts didnt take into account practice times. TSL' sponsors have already reduced funding. | ||
