Entitled clanhoppers are annoying in a hobby scene like BW but they're just plain bad business (as Boss pointed out earlier) in a professional environment like SC2.

But I do know enough about business to know that developing a partnership with another business doesn't happen overnight, or even 3 to 4 months. And quite frankly, Major has a reputation. http://www.usatoday.com/tech/columnist/kimkomando/2011-05-13-komando-penny-auctions_n.htm | ||

Juan, though an outstanding player, couldn't meet the professional and ethical expectations of our sponsor and upper management. Sorry, was this written by a Sixjax representative? Irony at it's finest. | ||

Running a spellcheck and using some punctuation isn't too much to ask from a professional Starcraft player in his official statement of why he was dismissed from his team. Then again, it's major. | ||

Entitled clanhoppers are annoying in a hobby scene like BW but they're just plain bad business (as Boss pointed out earlier) in a professional environment like SC2. Yeah, because shutting high level talent out of the game will help it grow! /sarcasm. Unless he pulls a Michael Vick incident, he doesn't deserve to get shut out and it won't happen. Take a look at Shaq, one of the best Basketball players of all time, he team hopped, talked a whole lot of smack and yet he had no trouble finding teams even when his playing level had deteriorated. That's completely overlooking if they didn't keep any promises, if they didn't that hardly makes him entitled and even if they didn't he doesn't have a limitless window to improve, if they aren't the proper environment for him to improve in then he should move on and cheers to him. | ||

Second of all, allthough EG isn't as worried about BM and such, I do think they take cheating and other stuff Major has done very seriously, so I dont think your wish will come true ![]() | ||

Good for him. Hold on, am i getting this right, but are you blaming Artosis here a little bit? How do you know Artosis made the call here? I would assume that he didn't. Sorry if i understood you wrong. | ||

Both team and player are obviously at fault here. SJG doesn't have the high moral ground, even though they try to fake it. Juanito does not behave like a true professional. Both have a lot of growing up to do if they want to be taken seriously. | ||

Either SJG didnt keep their promise or there was a miscommunication between the involved parties (which sounds strange because they tried to send him to IM & TSL). And they only had to send him to Korea (he organized everything else) which they would've needed to pay too, when the IM & TSL deals would've went through. But when you realize there's a miscommunication or they're not able to fulfill the promise you quit. Simple as that. You dont stay with your employer just because he's such a nice guy. Work-contracts are a buisness, you quit when you're not satisfied (or get fire if your employer is not satisfied). Of course this doesnt excuse the SEA incident (and other stuff - but I dont know about that^^). But maybe a Korean team (with a stern coach) is actually the best for him to basically grow up. I still cant beleive they didnt send their players to MLG especially since artosis was there , youd think that would be the MLG they wanted to send their players too. Id be pretty pissed off if i was major as well, Sixjax cant even send their players to the easiest and cheapest lan to get too (in terms of major lans) It seems they are having some funding issues, and Thats not really majors problem or fault, im sure at the very least (beyond korea) he expected to be sent to every MLG, its a big deal to miss out on one with the championships coming up soon. Like i said before, Sixjax next announcement will be "artosis and sixjax part ways" | ||

People think that IdrA and Huk have 'attitudes', but when have you ever heard of IdrA or Huk not doing something they said they were going to do, or being anything but appreciative of their team and management? They're actually very disciplined. | ||
