Well she's looked less then professional in her position using twitter as a tool to bash a guy who yes wasn't exactly honest but also being that high up as a professional should've known not to do but she did anyway dragging others into it as well. While Dragon wasn't entirely right one would expect her to act with decorum that she clearly chose not to act with. An for that I have lost a great amount of respect for her as a professional cause that was entirely uncalled for even if it was awhile ago. You're only as good as you are in your worst moments and in her worst moments she showed a great lack of professionalism.


I respect her more for doing that, calling out dick moves on twitter.


O_O

I never understood this... I don't like Dragon or his antics, but he was on the B team and wasn't even allowed to go to the house... it's not like he was a star or anything. If he gets an offer for something better, there's like a 90% chance he'll never materialize for Slayers, so why not be happy that he can have a better future?


Dragon told Jessica that he was retiring, and planning to focus on his studies. Jessica said okay, but it turned out that Dragon had gotten a better offer from Millenium and wasn't doing the studies thing at all.


I would say that he feels the need to make such an excuse in the first place says more bout Slayers/Jessica then about Dragon.

It's like a kid not daring to talk to his parents, the parents done something wrong to create such situation then.


No it doesn't. Your second part is half right. It's like a KID not daring to talk to his parents. These guys are KIDS. They don't know how to conduct themselves professionally and thus would rather make excuses. It's silly to think that it's Boxer/Jessica who don't know how to run their business considering their long history of experience and success.

If MMA is under contract and it specifically states not talking to other teams until the contract is up and he did, I see no problem with his punishment.

Everyone else told her they wanted to move to a foreign team and they did without any problem... before and after Dragon.

He can still practice with people at SlayerS, against peeps on ladder, and against players from other teams. SK_MC is raking in the money left and right and is a Code S finalist, all without a team house.

You don't think he knows some Code S players outside of Slayers to practice with? Look at MC, just because he left OGS for SK doesn't mean he loses his practice partners.

Fucking drama-queens if they release a statement like that without an explanation. It better be really personal for the parties involved otherwise I'm going to lose respect for this team. Judging from the tweets by his teammates they seem to treated as pawns.

well boxer did bring together the best team off all time together, and been its captain/ace for a really long time. he is well know for managing his players, be it motivation or leading through example. he has some degree of influence on half of big names on starcraft history.

BoxeR is well known for managing a team.
I think that SlayerS is one of the most successful team in SC2.

and some guy said he went to the GSTL today and heard jessica briefly say that MMA's punishment was due to physical

assault.

Heres the link to it

Since you seem to know everything why don't you enlighten us all about the matter then? Here is a guy who got some sort of proof of what could have happen and backs it up a bit. Yes it's not 100% but it's something and all you add is a "No."? Grow up.

MMA is exactly the kind of recruit EG would want, he is already a superstar in the Sc2 community and has won plenty of championships.Of course it would be rather amusing if MMA got recruited by EG and thus moved back into the Slayers house as an EG member :p

Not that I believe the physcial assualt thing, but wasn't MMA in the special forces in the military? ^_^

MMA vs the entire SlayerS team in a fight, who would win?
In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.

Not that I know of, but he did supposedly do some MMA, hence the name. Since we're talking about people who are pretty young and generally immature and socially awkward I could see how a physical altercation could break out between teammates. I don't want to think that, but I could see how it could happen.
