All i know about Major is from what i read on TL and that alone make me not specially shocked.
Why would any team take him in with that attitude. Try to cheat in the sea tournament...

i have an alternate theory of why sixjax and major parted away, When he was not part of sixjax, They saw this Player and by that time they knew his BM behavior, but as a business they see a lot of potenial in this player which leaded them to pick him up, it has nothing to do with the attitude of Maj0r, since there are more players with that attitue (idrA, Destiny), it has more to do with the expectation of Maj0r that never where meet. its not all that surprising to see this kind of things, because it happens in other Sports as well, NBA, Baseball, etc etc.

there is an spanish phrase, UNO POR SU MEJORIA HASTA SU CASA DEJARIA.

You can do anything you set your mind to, man

NSHoSeoTerran?

The SEA tournament issue and unprofessional behavior in general is a real problem and he should definitively try to change his behavior and posture. Still if it's true that they promised him they would send him to Korea asap and they fail to do so even when he basically got excepted by a Korean team would be enough reason for him to leave imo.

I hope he will become a calmer and more professional player with time because I do enjoy watching his games. Maybe the Korean environment could aid him in improving as a person.

It may not be so easy for him to find a team, depending on what the breach was. If he was failing to meet contractual obligations to promote the team (and hence, obtain sponsorship) he may have a lot of trouble getting onto a reputable team (see Destiny). Obviously Destiny was more mutually agreed that he was not a good fit, but he similarly did not want to perform the contract.

He said he was acting out because his team wouldn't hold up their end of the deal of sending him to Korea. A player like Maj0r needs to be in Korea, especially if he wants any chance of getting better and making it in SC2. So any team manager with brains at all will pick him up in a heartbeat, because to be honest, he's done nothing wrong.


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.


I prefer to see it like this, if your player is known for having a hot temper, why in the world would you try and provoke something like that by denying him a chance to make it in SC2 on THREE separate occasions (as in going to Korea). Acting out is just Maj0r's disposition when things don't go his way, just because he isn't submissive when he's getting screwed over doesn't mean he's a bad person.

Oh seen it comming for a long long time. Even at the end he acts like a total jerk pretending that he quit. I seriously hope he gets no team invites and disappears from the scene.
oh, hai

MLG: He was playing on the Open Brackets and on a match with WBC, which he lost, apparently there was a preemptive gg on part of WBC (some may consider this BM). When he lost the game he said something like "good job idiot", not entirely sure.

SEA: There was this tournament hosted for SEA (as in Southeast Asia) residents only. After buying an account for that server, MajOr went to register, only to be denied by the staff. He then went on to get an account from someone in the area and played through the tournament. He was eventually caught, as moonglade found the level of play displayed didn't match the Platinum League status he had. Even after all this, MajOr wouldn't completely admit his own fault in this.

Didn't he also have a squabble with someone else on SJG over a shared account? I remember a blog post (tantrum), but not sure who the other player was. Anyway, seems like he makes a lot of very immature decisions. Hopefully he gets his shit sorted out, but until then I don't think he's going to have much success with any teams he joins.

solid player no doubt, but when he joins a team that runs as a business clearly things are going to clash... if he expects he can do that on other top organizations he wont get the success he's trying for

It's so sad that drama comes over playing well these days...I really don't care how immature he is, he's an incredible player. Football players have awful reputations for their personal lives, but they're still respected because they are the best at what they do, everything else should come secondary.

So because Major has a hot head sixjax should just cave in to every demand so as to not enrage him?

Sometimes it's not possible to send someone to Korea, especially if they felt like Major wasn't a keeper.

Considering Major did some ridiculously shitty things and was pretty bm and unapologetic about the SEA situation, I don't think he's going to get another chance for a bit (for those who said EG, if EG wouldn't touch Destiny, how do you thnk they'll touch Major? And yes Major is better, but Destiny brings a lot more attention)

I really like major's statement. It proves he's a mature adult who acts purely rationally and can defend his actions through 100% composure. .__.

Honestly, nobody should be surprised. Major was known for one thing for the past however many years and nothing has changed; he's a team-hopping, toe-stepping child who only wants to be with a team so long as they succumb to his every whim.

I remember not long ago he convinced one of his previous teams to shell out for multiple copies of the game simply so he could change his name between nonsense like "princess" and "kitty" shortly before he dropped their contract and signed on to sixjax.

Not to mention in BW he would do the same thing as has happened in sixjax; try to use them as a stepping stone to getting to korea (where i can only assume he would teamhop to a korean team at the first chance) and leave for another team as soon as that didn't seem plausible in the immediate future.

Also, based on his recent actions in everything he's been involved in, it seems like if someone tells him anything aside from "yes, major. Absolutely, major. You can borrow a SEA account and participate in this tournament even though we explicitly told you that you couldn't, major." he just simply doesn't understand, or it doesn't register at an audible level for him, and as such he goes out of his way to undermine people indiscriminately.

Honestly, I think this is for the best. Hopefully nobody will pick him back up after sixjax drops him. He's bad for e-sports, and bad for professionalism in general.

Kobe Bryant will never be separated from "rapist" even if the allegations are unproven.
Same with Ben Roethlisberger
T.O. and Chad Ochocinco were known as divas.
Albert Haynesworth was a good player (when he tried) but now has some legal problems up his network.

You're telling me these don't have any effect on public opinion?

Too bad he acts the way he does, he's very skilled and talented player. If he got to korea he could've learned so much. Maj0r please behave for next few months, get team, and fly to Korea. If he went there right now I'm afraid he would've finished like Suncow.

Football players still get released for contract breaching.

After reading what Major wrote here what team in their right mind would sign Major and send him to Korea? He's pretty much made it a goal to train and potentially play for a Korean team (see his writing on NSHoseo). So why should a foreigner team be willing to pay for his airfare there so he can jump ship?

Hmm dono how to believe here, major did break his contract it seems, but then again sixjax seem to be fucking about with thier players. Not sending anyone to mlg seems kinda counter productive, why Artosis bothers with this team blows my mind.
