And slowly but surely the whole EG vs Korea drama becomes slightly more balanced.


Oh? Did sc2con have something to do with the Puma incident, or is this just an odd generalization about all Koreans? o_O


Both?? I would think that since Koreans (sc2con) pride themselves as the nation with the most abundant nerds in the world, (thus the term foreigners, non-foreigners), when the non-foreigners such as Puma choose to stay in foreigners team such as EG, the terms really start to get mixed up and that's what they don't want to see. SC2con is simply trying to maintain a monopoly over something that doesn't exist at all.

The fact is that NA is simply a bit behind in e-sport scenes and now it's catching up. The terms foreigner and non-foreigner should never be used at all. There is no real sports or games out there that uses this term, except for Starcraft. I always wonder, if Koreans win fifa world-cup, even just for once, will they start calling others Foreigners as well? lol

So much drama surrounding such a young sport. You'd think there would be more unity, good manners, and favors between respective parties. SC2 will not have an easy time growing if there is this much drama surrounding players, teams, and organizations. How do you think sponsors and organizers will feel about investing money into Starcraft 2 if this ridiculousness keeps occurring?

It's not that big of a surprise that the organization would succumb to trying to control everything. You know what they say, absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I think they were on the right track with having representatives from every team being part of the organization, like the UN. But from the way it sounds, there are a few people who are controlling it despite what the members say, and that's not the way it should be. All members should have equal say in the matters, and until that happens it will just be another KeSPA.

FXOBoss or anyone else,

What are the benefits of dealing with SC2Con, exactly? And what do they actually do as a governing organization?

Do they have a board of governors?
A charter of player's rights?
Do they offer health insurance?
Are they financially liable in anyway?

I'm not being facetious. Most union's or independent organizations actually do something or have so kind of mission or agenda. What is theirs?


And finally the correct question has been asked!

Answer: + Show Spoiler +
They read the rules to the coaches before GTSL matches



Are you fucking shitting me? LOL. Well, that's something.


I thought SC2CON was a union made by the players, coaches, and managers. Where they try to establish guidelines on player working conditions, conflicts among teams, and stuff like that.


I think that is the intent, but this is what I imagine.

I suspect SC2Con, in actuality, is a small group of 'insiders' or greybeards from the Broodwar days comprised mainly of Team Managers and Coaches, that conspire together and force collusion and conformity between the teams. While they occasionally look out for player rights, they actually limit their opportunities and mobility, enforce working conditions only tolerable in Asian countries, and in general, have no formal process for selecting leaders or making decision.

FXOBoss or anyone else in the know: is this a fair assumption or completely off-base?




If it's right, then I guess these Broodwar guys want to kill SC2; but doing this won't help the players as they represent the players themselves. This would also hurt GomTV. I guess GomTV should do something about this organization.
No. If it's right, then these experienced managers, coaches and team sponsors would probably want to monopolize the Korean scene (perhaps not as much as KeSPA, but still a lot).

They work with SC2 - why would they want to destroy their own livelihood?

this is just absurd FXO would do some backstabbing like this, we have yet to have official words from SC2CON, and yet ppl already jumping on the band wagon.

ask yourself, is the drama good for e-sport? what will this bring to our blossoming dreams, what is the POINT????

I don't like how this is visible at all it could be fabricated lies let's see if you truly wanted to come clean at least show us the messages you receive during all the threats so we know how they man handle in to certain position and over all it's all one sided and everyone has something to say when they are not in front of the person they are talking too . If you are going to talk about P&C than these news should have been kept at low profile and not defaming the other party which is sc2 con without any evidence or so .

I like how you guys paint the picture where foreigners are the good guy and anything korean related are kespa 2.0 keep it up this is probably why there can never be any ventures between the foreign scene and the korean .


He doesn't need to come clean just because you would like to believe that he might be shady. He's making an announcement - and he's giving reasons behind the decisions made during that announcement. He's not painting any picture here.

So glad that there is an individual such as FXOBoSs to deliver some transparency to the situation. I'm glad to see that he has the experience to see through a hollow threat and call the bluff.

It seems to me that Korea is defty afraid of losing their dominance on the Starcraft name. They were still so deep into Brood Wars when Starcraft 2 started and never managed to get a stranglehold on the market. Now their market share in SC2 is nowhere close to their BW marketshare. You can't really blame them though. So many people have made this their career, sacrificing education and prime years of their life to get a chance at making Starcraft their career.

FXO is backstabbing for bringing to public that the representative of SC2CON makes threats and harrass choyafou in attempt to force FXO to do what he wants?

This kind of shit have to come to the public light, the worst possible thing for ESPORTS is if power-tripping fools like that gets away with bullshit.
Thank God and gunrun.

They don't trust you. They see your future. They know your power will be too strong to control... You must break through the fog of lies the SC2Con have created around you. But now... now they won't even get any control over you at all...

Well its more along the lines of, since the whole TSL FD and Tester thing where SCcon wanted TSL out and then immediately backpeddled on it, no one knows who they are or what they are doing and why they are doing it.

Even if SC2con comes with a reasonable response. What are we supposed to think?

Please stop asking this. Sc2con has nothing to do with the GSL. And they have no power over anyone participating in the GSL.
