A number of people are citing it like fact, and its very wrong :D Hence why CoR and myself are making mention that it was clarified as pure trolling >:3 | ||

Losing puzzle wouldn't kill zenex anyways they weren't like prae where they had nightend, thorzain and that's it there's still line, kyrix, core and hack at least even if slayers decided they just need a few thousand more terrans and decide to take byun. | ||

Hypothetically, if players like CoCa and Puzzle are the ones who sought out SlayerS as a new team, would there be as much drama? Reading the thread/announcement from SlayerS about Coca, I'm not entirely certain they propositioned him (that is to say that SlayerS sought out CoCa) - it is never explicitly stated in either the Facebook announcement, or the TL article. Any thoughts on the proposed question above? I suspect that regardless of how "properly" the transfer was handled (CoCa's was deemed legitimate protocol by all parties involved in the end, save for poor communication in Zenex) that there would be some form of unnecessary communal outcry (fanboys, etc.?). | ||

That means they have lost 2 code S players and now that kyrix and byun are in up down if they go to code a then that is like 3 months of effort and multiple code A victories wiped in the middle of the season. I can see why the manager/owner would be pissed if that was the case. Whatever happened to the beginning of slayers saying they werent interested in poaching talent from other teams and had a huge trial of masters/diamond players? OGS still does this and i dont think the talent pool of kr ladder has been milked dry yet either. Im not saying that players shouldnt be traded but they should seriously consider only doing this in the offseason or if they must do it midseason at least have it in writing with all parties being happy otherwise it just makes the whole scene look bad. Tandongho = good! Everybody wins, coca = what?, puzzle = AGAIN ?? I am going to be so sad if next season there are only 10/11 teams competing in GSTL and Zenex gets cut because they dont have enough GSL players to compete. | ||

I am going to be so sad if next season there are only 10/11 teams competing in GSTL and Zenex gets cut because they dont have enough GSL players to compete. Again, going back to my prior post and question - is it not entirely possible that Puzzle/CoCa (assuming puzzle is leaving) that they were the ones who propositioned SlayerS? CoCa is joining for utility, but could it be possible for the players to leave to greener pastures? SlayerS is an excellent training environment with great sponsorship, and we also dont know how happy CoCa/Puzzle were in Zenex (again, assuming Puzzle's transfer) We cant necessarily incriminate SlayerS with "poaching" without knowing the situation of the players from Zenex either. Furthermore, the players themselves may be leaving for greener pastures. Neither assumption/proposition is any less valid than attempting to incriminate SlayerS. Frankly, I'm inclined to view this in a way which exonerates SlayerS from any such notions, not that I care if they "poached" or not. But for the sake of arguement, lets consider all the possibilities accordingly. Edit: forgot a sentence regarding potential player dissatisfaction in Zenex. | ||

Just a moment ago someone named "slayerspuzzle" with a rank35 GM rating was listed. This individual is no longer on the list, furthermore, no one with the handle of "puzzle" is visible on the list. | ||
