you act like esport contracts are worth more than the paper their written on.

no one is going to take anyone to court over a few hundred dollars left on a contract. and no team is going to force a player to play for them if he doesnt want to, its bad for both people involved (ex: col.naniwa)


Go read sixjax vs Major, and then also remember some sc2 players have 5-figure salaries. You didn't see the contracts, I did. Hence my statements.
Patience is a small price to pay for perfection.

This is super odd, I was under a similar impression that those two were contracted for longer.

3 teams in the GSL with star in their name now
There is obviously a huge racial imbalance in the global starleague. Just take a look at the code s roster: Korean Korean Korean Canadian Korean...

I had heard Mentalist wasn't playing for Infinity Seven a few days ago (despite the fact that he played for them in the NASL Team League Qualifiers against dtG)

I kinda saw the annoucement coming soon, but didn't expect it to be with another team.

Idk why Lastshadow is so angry, (Edit: If he's not then excuse me) it's kind of amusing that he is. From what I've heard is that Mentalist has an agreement with iS to play for them in international league under iS or iSRS. So I'm guessing Skit might be the same with Fnatic unless they had some kind of disagreement in the past making the academy team disband. (Also think about it? The Fnatic Academy team has not participated a single league yet)

Will Zenex be in future GSTL's? They're barely even a team anymore and if I remember correctly don't have a team house.

dont mind lastshadow hes always angry. in this case because hes jealous he hasnt found a team yet. he insults their player choices and questions the player's worth ethic. not cool man just say good luck and let it be.

Why does everyone assume that they'll be playing in the GSTL? They're barely even established...

EDIT: And judging by some of the players on the team, they seem to move teams too frequently for this team to be stable for the moment at least.

EDIT: Also don't know why everyone's bashing on Lastshadow for giving his frank opinion. A bit harsh and critical, but it's a good piece of opinion from someone who personally stayed with some of the players.

Too many teams in Korea as it is. I think some need to merge to survive later when KeSPA teams start playing.
