eSahara has thanks (T)cArn.

(T)cArn was the first eSahara player along with (T)FuRy.
After being expulsed from the GOM house in order to make place for the FXO team, cArn has competed in the ESWC and PPSL without success.
Lately he was training at the ProS House, but he refused to attend the lastest GSL qualifier because he though his skill level was not high enougth to even try.

eSahara sees that as a terrible lack of motivation, thus has choose to part ways with cArn.

official source : http://www.esahara.net/news/1608


I think this is a sad news, even if cArn has never reach any success, his sacrifice and motivation are inspiring to all other gamers. I don't understand why he didn't even tried to qualify...
I hope he stays in Korea and manage to be on GSL one day...although i totally understand the position of eSahara, this is not an acceptable behavior for a progamer.

edit : i'm getting a lot of shit so let me clarify some points :
- i have nothing to do with eSahara.
- i love cArn and i think his dedication is amasing. (yes i read his blogs to, and i love them)
- I didn't want to make it look like he achieved nothing, but truth is, he is playing full time since beta, he is aiming for high goals and didn't succeed yet even if he came close.

He's not eSahara related, and cArn didn't practice past few month, we can't keep a player not showing any dedication.

MaddeLisk trains very hard with Naama, Jimpo, Naugrim, Satiini, Check... and is really involved into eSahara's team life. And she's in the talented line up whereas cArn was considered as pro. I personally have a lot of respect for cArn, i consider him as a friend, but he didn't show anything good since he's in eSahara.

Dopani (RS manager/proS manager) told that cArn wasn't practincing and playing DotA. Based on his ladder rank, cArn is not training that hard for now.

I'm bit tired of people not knowing a quarter of what is up to jump on conclusion, I didn't want to say anything about all this but if people are to say things that are not true I guess I'll have to shed some lights.

I'm gonna be very short as it was something I was gonna talk about in the rest of my blogs anyway. So long story short, I joined eSahara, they couldn't provide me with the possibility to pratice since I left the GOM house, so I wasn't able to practice for 5 or 6 months.
Guess what, when you can't practice for this long, you're not gonna have any results.

For the qualifiers I had a bit over a month of practice at the ProS house, but I was still not in good shape enough to be able to win it, and if I were to go to the qualifiers it would be to win. It wasn't going to happen this time, and I had more than enough experience playing in every single one of the previous qualifiers (except the one when I was in Europe for ESWC).

There also was no real coverage whatsover of the qualifiers this time so it's not like there was any exposure to get out of it for the team, instead of continuing the disappointments that were ESWC and PPSL I would rather get my skill level and my confidence in my game back, improve as much as possible and be ready to win the next qualifier.

I just find really disappointing that eSahara tries to discredit me like this, that they interpret me not going as a lack of motivation, sure no problem that's what they think, but to then try to make people think I'm not practising is just not something you do. Especially since I choose to stick with them when I had better options just because I felt they were going in the right direction and had the right ideas and that we could build something together. I was wrong, it was just talking.
I could have things to say about what went wrong with eSahara, but I'm not gonna be that guy who crosses the line even though they went out of their way to spread misinformation about me.

It's fine, I know what I want, people who know me and know the details about all of this are supporting me, and those who don't have all the informations have to keep this in mind : they don't have all the informations.

So thanks to those who are still supporting me. The ones who are doubting me it's fine, it's just a matter of time before you are made wrong.

I know it, people who know me know it, eSahara knows it.

Just next time ... say it how it is : no results. Which I obviously understand, but that's all there is to it.


I'm not going into further details now, everything is gonna be covered in my next blogs when I get to that point.
As for this issue there is not much more to say.

If that is honestly the reason they dropped him, then that's fucking bullshit. cArn is an incredibly hard working player. He decides not to attend ONE TIME and they drop him even though he's sacrificed everything to try and participate in GSL? What the fuck, eSahara.

EDIT: If you're going to be disrespectful and say shit like "Who cares, cArn has achieved nothing."

Read his blogs before you post.

Well, if he's not good enough to even attend a GSL qualifier, it's probably rational to let him go. Work ethic isn't the only standard.

cArn's been in korea for ages now, granted he has little results, shame to see him go. I like to think his time spent in Korea translates to how much he's been training, or at least his dedication to be the best, but I honestly can't make that definitive statement.

The OP missed off the bottom part:


Following what has been interpreted as a lack of motivation to eSahara decided to dispose of Carn, who was not involved in leagues per team (due to the lag caused by the different servers)

(Google translate)

When you consider that:
1) He's not had success in the non-GSL tournaments he's participated in
2) He decided not to participate in GSL qualifiers
3) He's not taking part in any team events for eSahara

You can understand why they feel he's not worth keeping on.
The motivation thing is probably what tipped them over the edge.

No disrespect to cArn, he's been in Korea trying for a long time, but if you decide not to even bother trying in GSL qualifiers because you don't think you will make it, what incentive is there for the team to keep him on, when he's not even really a participating member of the team?
HOLY CHECK!

this is disguting. eSahara has lost my support and I hope they fail (or waste all of their money on more fake players).
I say what I want to say and do what I want to do. There's no in between. People will either love you for it or hate you for it.
