"The techniques used by Complexity to recruit Stephano were quite disorienting to influence our young player towards a bad decision." Now unless Complexity got him drunk or slipped him some roofie and then signed the contract with his hand when he was unconscious then this seems like an accusation that Complexity have misled Stephano. If you're going to make an accusation like that you really need some details to back your claim up. | ||

I really think Europeans bash on Americans in SC2 too much needlessly. He means Complexity is kicking ass in terms of recent performances and their connection with a major proteam in Korea, both of which Millenium doesn't have. | ||

They aren't going to hold Stephano on coL. They have stated they have no intention of enforcing a contract against a players will. | ||

It sets a terrible precedent to let this slide. I'm much more worried about the kind of arrangements where, in case of Complexity, it's now 2 players backed away just a few days after signing the contract. I'm more than willing to give up this whole "professionalism of e-sports" than accept dealings that are obviously shady and dishonest for one reason or the other, in one way or another. Obviously if it turns that Stephano changed his mind out of the blue or to get more money, I won't be on his side anymore and I'll sympathize with Complexity. However, given what I've seen in SC2 so far, and a natural inclination to trust people rather than companies, I'm defaulting to being extremely suspicious about the team initiating the transfer until it's proven otherwise. | ||

And honestly, if Stephano doesn't want to be on Col for whatever reason, then I don't think Col should take him... he wouldn't exactly be doing his best in that situation, would he? They could probably get some money out of this, if he did indeed not get tricked into signing a contract though, so I don't see this dropping anytime soon unless one team decides to be the bigger man ;_; | ||

We have spent weeks negotiating with Stephano and countering offers made by Millennium. This was no quick pressure situation. We will take a step back and analyze the situation but I hope Millennium honors the rule of contract law and does not disrespect it in eSports. Doing so would set a precedent that would undermine all we are collectively trying to accomplish. We will evaluate our options but I do not see a way we can allow this blatant disrespect for the contractual process to go unanswered. We will be contacting legal counsel in France and investigating courses of action. | ||

The Linked Statement Says it all ================================= "Within the last hour Team Millennium announced that Stephano was remaining with their organization despite the fact he executed a legally binding contract with compLexity. We are extremely disappointed by this turn of events and are seeking more information while we evaluate our legal options with French counsel. By no means do we want a player who does not want to be part of our organization but we can simply not allow players and organizations to completely disrespect the legal contractual process that ensures stability in our evolving sport. " ================================= Col is pissed...  Just because Col are pissed off doesn't mean they're slimy. They're angry because a valuable player has left despite being in contract. Let's not jump on a bandwagon yet, we need to see what Col's French legal division say first. | ||

If you're going to make an accusation like that you really need some details to back your claim up. This is what irks me the most. There was a negotiation phase where both sides got to present offers and counteroffers. How did Complexity disorient or confuse him? It's one thing for Millennium to sign an already-contracted player, its completely another to do that and insult the organization as well. Completely unnecessary escalation. | ||

It has been repeatedly stated that Destiny feels that he doesn't want to be really tied down and having to behave professionally because he represents sponsors. So he asked to be out of the contract and coL graciously let him go. | ||
