It's interesting how easily people forgive and forget his past mistakes. I think Major could change if he wanted to. people had more or less forgiven major, they just like to say "told you so" if naniwa had messed up during his first months in dignitas people would have said the same, some people probably still will Terran's (Major) been acting up for years though. If you act up for years, that's roughly how long it'll take people to forgive and forget.

And I like ViBE and dde quite a bit, so here's hoping sixjax doesn't shut down completely.
Im really interested in this "strong case of being the best NA player" you are talking about. Please show me some evidence of this, apart from your random fanboy comments.

Looks like EG is about to pick up a new team member soon

Don't care what happens to him, I'm not fond of provoking little pricks, regardless of their skill.
Curious of what Artosis has to say about this though.

If he had been "promised" he would get flown to Korea (for who knows what, to join IM? didn't that fall through) then Major would have needed a contract outlining that. Take it to court or something, but I'm not inclined to believe either party's story here.
Good luck, Major. I hope this is a turning point for you, great manners can go a long way.

I get how some people are trying to link the management of Sixjax as some sort of justification/cause for Major's behavior, but that doesn't mean that he's done nothing wrong (relative to the world of eSports). Why is it that people who defend Major (not to single you out or anything) just seem to blatantly not address that he's been pretty consistent in causing shit? Even if Sixjax did send him to Korea, it still doesn't change the fact that he's carrying a lot of baggage that isn't benefiting Sixjax. Consider that if he ever tried to pull some stunt in Korea, "the mecca of Starcraft" how much more shit it'd bring to Sixjax.

He's worth the investment. He has the potential to be one of the best, if not the very best, foreign players.
|
i have trouble taking sixjax seriously now :[ no players sent to mlg, their forums are 100% spam, and skew left like 2 weeks ago but he's still listed on the roster on the website. surprised they still have a team.

People keep bringing up artosis, why would he be so interested in this? I haven't really been following the scene that much.

His skill is all I and you should care about. thats one of the shallowest, stupidest comments ive ever seen about public figures and professionals should people ignore Chris Brown's wife-beater mentality because they like his music? should people ignore Terrell Owen's attitude problems because hes good at football? Kobe is fuckin incredible at basketball, lets all just ignore the whole sexual assault deal and his other attitude problems! who the fuck pardons people for having despicable personalities simply because theyre good at something?
So you're comparing beating women and sexual assault to...changing your in game name a lot?
The two can't even be compared, but nice try.

I'm not even a fan, lol.
I'm just honest enough to admit that a player who I personally dislike has been performing pretty well for a long time, and at least belongs in the discussion of "best player training in the Americas".
As opposed to, for instance, IdrA consistently choking harder against weaker opponents as more time goes by.

Funny as it seems all the team managers on earth have been brainless then, since teams willing to send him over to korea haven't exactly been fighting over each other in the queue to sign him have they?
Someone mentioned that Naniwa was also really bm. This is true. However since those days, look at how he as improved in manner and boy does he have to drive to be the best. Also has consistent results to show he is without doubt one of the best foreigners. Look where he is now.
Then again we have Major who seems to jump ships so often he jumps out of his opportunities, while doing some really bad stuff to not help his reputation either.
Be honest, when you think Naniwa, what's the first things that come in mind? Hella good player, damn motivated, was bm in the past. What first comes mind of Major? Good player, does really stupid shit sometimes and changes clan once a month (was pretty long in SJG, longest ever for him?).

I seriously hope that no other team picks him up for a while. Getting invited into another proteam any time soon only encourages him to continue his history of unprofessionalism.
|
He may be a very talented player, but his childish attitude seems quite pathetic at times. Good riddance in my opinion.
