Discussing the controversy and stating your opinions in a constructive way is fine, but there will be bans for any player/organization bashing without anything to substantiate it.

I hope aLive's ordeal is just a miscommunication. Either that, or something even more crazy than a Stephano + SunCow + Puma + Princess/ Kitty/ Terran scandal.

WTF is going on?!?!?!?! -_-

Man, think if the whole TSL situation had just been sane...

Hell, you could form a team based off all the players that have "left" or been "poached" from TSL: Rain, Killer, JYP, Clide, Puma, ALive, Trickster, Fruitdealer...and it would be a pretty solid lineup, lol.

I sort of suspected this type of thread might pop up after hearing Alive left TSL in the Moon hype thread... but Heart too? I can't even imagine how sad/angry Coach Lee is right now... I just hope TSL weathers the storm... I hope more sources are released over the coming days so people can see all perspectives of the situation... I'm just sad...

Interestingly enough, I think a major community member reaching another post count milestone is actually a more significant occurance than all the drama we are getting about every week. I mean, you can only have so many "underhanded signings" and such before you get bored of it all.

EDIT: Actually, after reading through the thread, this is indeed an exceptionally clusterfucked situation. Still, eSPORTS does seem to have a knack for drama. I wonder if this fiasco will break TSL, considering how they lost and are losing their talent, their players' faith and the respect of the community.

Remember when the top story on TL front page was Flo joins Quantic and didn't change for like a week? Simpler times....


Obviously we over here at Quantic need to get a scandal in the works to steal back the limelight. TSL really upping the publicity game.

Edit: I'm thinking a split with ST and merge with TSL, mutually beneficial publicity ^^

TSL why? Too bad we have to undergo this drama over again.
But if Alive succeeds, fnatic is damn scary!

I talked to Lee in person about this a few times. I can't believe people think this is because TSL is 'mismanaged'. That's actually so crazy, even with the rumours that have arisen.

Even after he originally stole FD and Tester and everyone kinda just let it go and didn't make a big deal about it for the greater good of the growth of SC2 in Korea, Coach Lee was notorious for doing things like going ape shit bitching about very minuscule things such as how many players/which players can get to sit in the team area during matches, which left other coaches and GomTV staff wondering "what the fuck is wrong with this guy?"

Coach Lee is a hypocrite and a liar. The way he stole Fruitdealer and Tester from OGS in the past was far worse in terms of deceit, lack of business ethics, and backstabbing.

It's not my place to go into details, but all I can say is: Karma is a bitch.



That's all hearsay? I mean, I've followed Mama Bear since MBC, and always liked him, but there has to be more shit going on behind the scenes.

He let Fnatic train in his house with his team. He tried to partner with Fnatic. Apparently the translator from Fnatic talked Alive into leaving TSL. Alive has a contract.

Anyone would be pissed if this happened. If the story is true, then Fnatic did pretty much the dirtiest thing you could ever do in e-sports. Do you think someone like FXOBoss would be okay with allowing another foreign team to practice with his team and then suddenly leave with Gumiho or Leenock in their back pocket?

Come on now.

I thought Alive left some weeks ago? Im totally confused right now

Why wouldn't a coach be clingy to his players? In what sport would a player not want a coach to want him on his team? Alive is one of the best Terrans in the world when he plays at his peak performance, so I don't see why Coach Lee would just let a player walk.

No other team in the world would let one of their star players walk for nothing if they were under contract. They would be lambasted by the fans, media, and called morons for doing so.

Wow, that's really dirty. TSL = "Team Soon Leave"? Their roster of left players is incredible: Puma, GuineaPig, Clide, Rain, Fruitdealer, Trickster, Killer, JYP, Alive, Happiness. And they go often in pairs - two in each of EG, Fnatic and Startale.
