Feels a bit wierd tho since he streams alot nowadays. Also he wont say why he got kicked/left SlayerS on his stream, seems like it doesn't have anything to do with an injury, because then he could just say he got injured and thats why he left/got kicked. And why would he search for a foreign team if it's just an injury.

I call that neck injury story a bs.

Jessica tweeted something like stop trying to act friendly to our team members (or stop talking to our team members).

Regardless who is at fault, I am pretty sure there is something behind this whole stir-up. MMA is too great of an asset for the team to release and Slayers' image is already stained due to poor PR (at least in Korean scene), the team decided to keep MMA, release Crank and fabricate a story to tie up the ends.

What caused this too happen? No one knows except "them," but it was a smart decision to not disclose any information.

It's weird to see how Slayers has changed since the beginning of SC2, but in a good way.

It's a Genius move.

One of the things I love about Genius is his frightening 1-base play. It can absolutely wreck, and the threat of him doing those things keep you scared.

Player leaves team the same time a major controversial thing happens (MMA situation), the team cites a injury. RIGHT AFTER being released for injury the player starts streaming like 8-10 hours a day (and talks about how he practices on the Korean server AFTER playing 8-10 hours a day), taking #1 in the NA ladder in 3-4 days. This all being after the "injured" player qualified for IPL 5. No one finds this odd, at all?

Cmon, where are the "journalists" on this one.........

MMA mma'd him and Cranked him to the floor!
But i'm sure Genius's bulgogi is better than Crank's.

also, Crank keeping his mouth shut for his own good. No one wants to hire a tattletale.

Crank definitely left for a reason other than injury, but who cares? They like to keep it to themselves so let it be. What he seems to be doing is trying to attract the attention of foreign teams by dominating the NA ladder - Violet, Forgg, Shutte, Vines. Also, I think he prefers Liquid, re: LiquidBisu id.

LiquidBisu ID was an account I gave to him and made the ID. Was my old smurf.

Edit: Funny note, that account was going to be named "EGJaedong" but dong is blocked by battle.net.....

Boxer really knows how to build a team!
