EPTMKP said in today's interview that he declined everything to focus on GSL, which leaves the whole thread to "LosirA declined invite to MvP"?

I have a feeling this whole thing is getting blown out of proportion... The statement says MC pulled out but the schedule hasn't been edited yet. Puma is part of EG, Alicia is part of SlayerS both teams are not part of the ESF, Crank is teamless so he has currently no assocation with them. The situation with Alive and Oz is currently unknown. | ||

No. They only had 6 spots to begin with for KR. Basically they invited 6, some turned it down and then they invited more. And now we have 6 which happens to not be in eSF. Did they decline because it was eSF's stance? Or because of other reasons, no one knows. MKP and LosirA are supposedly 2 players that turned them down. There might be others. Scarlett also pulled out of the tournament and who knows whether any EU/NA invites rejected them. | ||

Absent from the list of competitors is any representation from any of the teams under the Korean eSports Federation, representing teams in Korea not under KeSPA, with the exception of SlayerS. All six Korean players invited, among them Jang "MC" Min Chul, Fnatic's Han "aLive" Lee Seok, and Lee "PuMa" Ho Joon, are signed to western teams SK Gaming, Fnatic, and Evil Geniuses, respectively. Incredible Miracle's Hwang "LosirA" Kang Ho and Prime's Lee "MarineKing" Jung Hoon are said to have turned down invites. This does not say MC pulled out unless I am missing something? | ||

It's 3am at the moment and I txt'd boss but i will have to wait for confirmation. Regardless, players are allowed to decline a tournament whenever they want. It is not up to anyone else other than players if they accept or not. Players decline the FXO invitational all the time, their reasons are none of anybodies business but their own. FXO declined an invite into the EGMC. Does this mean we hate eg and want their event to fail? No it doesn't, it means we are in GSTL and IPTL already and don't have time in our schedule for anything else.The players that would have been invited to the MvP league would already be extremely busy with GSL/GSTL/IPL etc so they have barely any time as it is. EDIT ------ If it was the case that boss went on the record with slasher about this, he will get a fucking earful from me, but I will haveto wait till he gets to the office in the morning to confirm | ||

Or were there more invites to begin with and were replaced already? No one 'pulled out'. They just turned down the invite when it was given. MKP and LosirA supposedly did the turning down. MKP already said he is focusing on GSL. Not sure about LosirA. The weird part is someone from FXO said that it MIGHT have to do with the number of invites. But if it was an eSF wide effort to reject this event, wouldn't FXO know about it? What if Gumiho was invited? | ||

Disgusting service from the ISP provider we have in our office, we will air it very shortly, some of the r032 games will be out of date, but the rest were not played until we knew when we can get it back up and running | ||

People please read this!!! No need for any ESF/Kespa drama -.-.. well yet anyway.... Only two players declined MKP and Losira MKP said in his interview he wanted to focus only on GSL for this season which easily explains why he pulled out As for Losira it could be any kind of reasons.... the main point is this isn't ESF playersgetting together and deciding to stick it to MLG or Kespa.... it's two players declining an invite for personal reasons.... | ||

It should atleast be 50/50 if not just having spots for players who are famous/show good results in SC2. It's not the ESF vs KeSPA invitational, it's the MLG vs Proleague invitational. They can invite whoever they please. | ||
