Btw some things NaNiwa said actually makes for a really good argument that we need a player-union when players sign contract with teams. I think back specifically to the Real Talk with 2GD. Where they discussed that matter more in depth. 2GD make it happen! Player-union is the next big step for esports! | ||

Estro was known to be a really "poor" team, did he say anything about CJ Entus? I find this quote from Rekrul quite interesting where he talks about foreigners in korea progaming houses, and also about Idra: You can't imagine what it's like to be a progamer in Korea right now. Nony acted like he was fully aware and seemed ready but he obviously wasn't even close to ready. Ret had no idea what he was getting himself into. The reality of these teams is this: Koreans do not think like foreigners at all. They have a set schedule and even if you make some request to break this schedule and your request makes complete sense logically and fundamentally they just won't break or bend their team routine/rules in any way whatsoever especially not for some newbie foreigner who just joined their team. It's just the way koreans are...you either conform to their standards or you get the fuck out. This is something almost impossible for non-koreans to grasp and is why Idra was able to get along so well after a while...his personality and lifestyle conforms exactly to what they want. He's quiet, mild mannered (except online LOL), and just sits there in his chair playing games all fucking day. He doesn't cause problems in any way. They like this. Nony was having some problems right away with the intensive training schedule and was making requests to estro saying he wants a bit more free time and less playing hours etc or some shit like that. BIG NONO. When you join a Korean team you are there for them, they are not there for you. Of course that does not fit a western mentality but in the progaming world there are far too many upcoming players, and the competition is so intense for them to actually focus their dedication on any player except for a star player. It's up to the newb players to impress them and do what they want. And saying they should try a bit more to help him out because he's non korean is just as retardedly racist as saying they are racist for not helping him. | ||

Yeah IdrA was just stating facts, there was no opinion in there. LOL smarten up bud. IdrA only does it to build his brand of course, but still it kind of says something about his character given that it's unprovoked (or at least way out of proportion). If Naniwa had done the same thing, idra's fanboys would be out in droves slinging mud at him. | ||

Naniwa claims to be like that too, so wouldn't he do the same if he was asked that? We will never know, as I think JP left some interesting things out. Didn't Naniwa want to come into real talk because of this? | ||

depends.. i would say that if you have 50 good things to say about a person and 10 bad (all true), and you only mention the 10 bad ones youre still shittalking (im not saying that everything idra said about naniwa was true) | ||
