Please stop with the jokes/posts that speculate something sexual or scandalous is at play here. They do not contribute to discussion and are generally of very poor taste.

Ryung: "As soon as I wake up, there's something that makes me mad"

Those are how I would translate the meanings, ran it through a Korean friend as well

This type of rash and seemingly spiteful decision does not bode well for Slayers. My instinct says that Jessica is somehow behind it because of her previous outbursts when players left Slayers.

I hope MMA can get off that team quick and find a nice fit for himself. No player deserves this type of punitive treatment, much less someone who's done for SC2 what MMA has.

I love Boxer, and this seems so unlike him, but even if it is ENTIRELY Jessica..... Boxer shouldn't allow things like this to happen to his brand. Hope this story is just false.

I wish I knew why MMA got demoted to B-team. I think he's being a bit dramatic, though, for wanting to join a foreign team because he got demoted. Unless there's other reasons why he wants to join a foreign team, I don't see it happening. It appears to me that this is just a bunch of drama within the SlayerS house.

Also, just because MMA and Crank changed their Twitter names doesn't mean that they have officially left the team. They may have decided that they want to leave but SlayerS hasn't released anything yet. I do wander what happened to Crank, though.

I don't think MMA will have any problem whatsoever finding a new team, whether it be foreign or not.

if it's a money issue, MMA deserves it. He's a star and I'm pretty tired of the way Jessica handles things lately. But hey, I dunno what it's really about.

if IM picked this up, holyyyy shit : P Liquid'MMA? EG.MMA? Acer.MMA? or... MMA.MMA (he creates his own team like boxer did) ... it's happening.

This was probably Jessica's doing, Boxer was like "yo no, he's ma baby" and Jessica was like "HE NO GET RESULTS!"

I wouldn't be so sure, depending on what he did to get punished, and what his demands of a foreign team would be.

EDIT: A guess, take this with a grain of salt:

If MKP's tweet relates, then perhaps MMA got into a significant salary dispute? It would perhaps explain why he wants to go to a foreign team too. We all know that korean progamers are under the impression the trees in America grow money.

I hope that both the Slayers team and MMA are not hurting each other on this, Slayers is one of my favorite teams because of Boxer and also (in large part) MMA.

I love the guy, and as far as I'm concerned he was the first one to really execute high-level end game TvZ where you just constantly drop and chip away at Zergs, which still seems to be the hardest style for all zergs to play against (even Stephano, DRG, etc).

I hope at the end of the day this doesn't blow up in either of their faces, and that they aren't just acting rashly.

This seems so unlike MMA... I'd really rather him just take the punishment and stay on SlayerS than leave

Can people STFU about Jessica all the time? Stop accusing without knowing the details.

You can't possibly say that, Jessica, who helps run an eSports team would know for sure that players slump periodically.

If it was a salary dispute, how the fk would MKP know about it? Plus, the article already stated that it was due to misbehavior, not some disagreement with the contract. MKP was most likely referring to MMA's desire to go to a foreign team, if he was referring to this situation at all

The good news is that now I dont think Marineking would ever abandon prime because of that tweet. Really good to hear.
