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.

It gets harder and harder to be a TSL fan. I was really beginning to like them during the last team league season, but they have only a couple players remaining from those days and stuff like this keeps happening. Good luck to aLive.

Interview from This Is Game.

Cross contract seems be an over reaction, as I haven't made a contract yet. I received an offer from the translator last Sunday and on Monday he asked if I wanted to talk to the Fnatic manager and talked in detail. Later Coach Lee called me over and showed me the printed out copy of the conversation. Seeing as how the conversation was done in Skype on my computer I wonder how he got it. However I know I was in the wrong so I apologized and asked him to understand.



... What the fuck?

But hey guys, Coach Lee is a really nice guy right?

If that statement is true, coach lee need to get sued by alive.
Btw, I am not sure talking about detail of contract to public is valid move. That could cause legal issue too.

aLive's interview completely confirms Fnatic poached him lol.

Couldn't Fnatic back out from taking you in as well?

They could. However Fnatic also played a part. I hope that doesn't happen. I'm only able to accept this situation because I'm certain that Fnatic sign me.

Fnatic is a foreign team. Couldn't there have been misunderstandings in communication with the translator?

Of course I've also thought that. I also left because of money. But if that were the case there's nothing I could do. I'll accept it


aLive seems to be handling this all very maturely though despite part of it being down to his immature decision making initially.

the thing that really confuses me is why every one tries to compare starcraft to basketball when saying how player/team relations should be handled. Basketball is a team sport where being on a team is essential it really is impossable for any one to go 5v1 and actually win it's just not going to happen. While starcraft is very much an individual sport say all you want about practice partners/work ethic but you can get them with out joining a team. there's really no reason why teams should have so much control over when a player decides they want to leave it should be/remain completely up to the player.

obviously if they are contracted they should stay on the team and there should be loyality (which would really just depend on the players character and considered by the team before asking him to join any ways). But talks should always begin and end with the player and any coach that feels they should be infomed first as opposed to second should be laughed off the stage.

To be honest, Brian supposedly played a big part in signing Moon. I can see how him casually talking to any korean progamer would end up with that progamer playing for Fnatic.

You understand 6 million won is a lot of money right? Thats about 4k USD iirc. Thats a large amount of money. Thats about a few hundred mousepads if you want to look at it in amount of mousepads.

No wonder people wants to leave TSL.

Sorry Mr. Lee. You're very likely a nice person, but managerial roles isn't the same as coaching. And being a control freak isn't helping.

aLive should really read his contract, or hire an attorney to do it. Coach Lee reading his private Skype chats should surely violate some existing clause.

How does playing relate to how someone is signed? I think you are confusing two different things...
