Well, saying MVP is better than everyone else isn't exactly going out on a limb.

The guys honest, maybe too honest, but I can respect that even though it gets him in some hot water. He's got some Naniwa in him.

I'm really not a fan of Major because of his attitude and his disrespect to the team's hes on. He only thinks of what can I get from the team? They need to give me more more more more. Then he cant even wear the team's t-shirt and acts like its not a big deal.

I don't wish anything bad on anyone I just hope he doesn't improve, until his attitude does at least.

Here's a guy who obviously doesn't give a shit about the team, and only cares about himself... Why the hell is he picked up by anyone? Even the most BM players are loyal to their teams.

You can't fault someone for honesty, particularly as it relates to his job. Of course someone who is trying to make a living playing SC2 is going to be concerned about finances. Are you also disgusted by HuK? This is their profession, and they aren't helped when you refuse to realize this fact.

Later he says, "Do you think you will now stay longer with CheckSix, are you happy with them? Major: Yes, I am happy with the team, they are great." You are just disgusted by him anyway and plagued by confirmation bias.



The only insightful post on this thread...


Seriously isn't a job for supporting you monetarily? Would you guys be disgusted with someone who said "I only work here because I need some kind of monetarily support to be able to pay my rent and buy my groceries". At least find some valid reasons to hate the guy, not just because you find something that every single person will pick out in the interview and just re post it in quotes on the thread like dozens of others to make yourselves look cool.

Gneh...

I sure wouldn't like to work with someone like that. Maybe it's just the questions, but it seems like he's bent on crapping on every hand that's at least tried to help him out. There's honesty, and there's just plain callousness. His comments about x6 being a great team fall flat in the blatant statement that he's there for their money.

People are not tools.

Who is saying that MVP is not good? I haven't heard anyone say that, and if they did, they they are way wrong...
Why would you ever choose failure, when success is an option.

He should tread carefully. This will probably be the last team that will sign this guy.




He plays for money,

of course its important for him.

Theres nothing wrong with what he said lol.

I don't know why some of you get so emotional and hold the game in such a romantic, idealistic way. Professionals are in this for the money. Some people just tell the things how they are.

♥ Major.

But let's get serious here..... that's the reason for a ton of people. He's never one to sugar coat anything, so he wouldn't come out with some shit about how he's looking forward to working with his new team. This shouldn't be spun in a way that it seems like MajOr is saying "I don't give a shit about my team and its members; only the money." <-- This is not true.

then perhaps he should word his answers in way that do not give readers that impression. Thats my only beef with the interview. They are helping you monetarily, at least have the courtesy to put some effort into your answers/pretend like you care about the team

I don't see how people can get angry at Juan for saying he wants money so he can stay in Korea to train but let Stephano get away with saying he only plays the game for prizemoney.

Yeah I thought he'd go more in depth or it'd be more interesting. It felt kind of bland...

IdrA can BM but NaNiwa can't. Leenock can one-base but NaNiwa can't two-base. People aren't very good at perspective. There's absolutely nothing wrong with what he said. What would people realistically expect the benefits to be for him, living in Korea where x6 has no presence?

Cant believe the whine coming out of this thread. Durrrr of course he's with x6 for monetary help! Its the main reason any player is with any team. If it wasnt for financing players teams would be pointless in sc2. This isnt a team game like cs.

The interview was translated; that's why it seems a little off.
