If true, ESF is being ridiculous with this one. The whole point of the tournament is to put MLG players vs Proleague players. This is a tournament hosted and funded by MLG + their sponsors, therefore they should be able to do what they want with it. And what they want to do is literally put MLG (and force the international aspect of it) vs Proleague. Don't protest against a major tournament provider for dedicating a single event to this kind of "X vs X" idea (which can only work, by the way, if proleague players make up half the battle). Especially, if they are funding it. Seriously, you cant expect MLG to transform the theme behind their tournament just because you want in. I find it selfish and, if they didn't misunderstand the idea behind the tournament, disgusting. It's not true... Slasher just being slasher -.- Only two players actually declined MKP who wants to focus on GSL and Losira for an unknown reason.... Again this is NOT ESF pulling it's players out... This is Slasher taking an off the record thought from FXOBoss sensationalising the shit out of it and posting it as fact -.- Thanks for that, I didn't read past page 2. So It's officially confirmed to be false?
Can't really be 100% confirmed false(until word from Boss) But judging by FXOUnstable's post and good logic it's about 99% confirmed false.
If ESF was pulling it's players out, they probably would have had a statement about it. MC would have pulled out with thim aswell he is close to them and has backed them in the past. Plus seeing as it is only 2 actually players pulling out 1. of them being MKP who said in his Code S interview he wants to focus solely on GSL this season... So really only 1 player pulling out for an unknown reason.... I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it's false...
If it's proven true I will eat my words and apologize to slasher.... but for now...

That's a pretty shitty and sensational OP to begin with, only looking slightly worse after Unstable's post.

making it big title like new drama of ESF vs KeSPA
Good PR

Fuck I'll tune into that. Somebody needs to ream Slasher out pretty hard over this one imo.

The GSL/ESF is the best players in the world and if they are given a lower number than the largely unproven Kespa players it's not a fair competition.

Losira!!  Oh well, I see their point and stand by it. ESF > Kespa for me any day. (Unless IM joinskespa lol)

Crap. I may have to stay up and watch it then. Just to see if they bring this up.
Also, seems entirely too shaky to be under "Community News and Headlines". It's got less behind it than Kawaii's VeraLynn post.

At least skim through the thread if you cant be bothered to read it. There is no drama behind this, only bad, attention whore type journalism...

i dont know who this guy slasher is but its good to see some people calling him out for trying to spawn unneeded drama

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
Well, as was the argument for the Old Boys Club, I kind of do represent the 1%. :O)
On a serious note, as I see this already exploding, I confirmed and double-checked my sources before publishing, just as I always do with my stories. Boss did in-fact go on the record.

Seriously though man, what the fuck?

They're too nice to KeSPA.

when you say, "all teams and players" i assume that means bombshells. not six people declining. especially when you can't confirm any REAL reason.
sensationalist media is shit media.

Couldn't care less.
Online tournaments hold no meaning anyway.
If they want a real tournament that the entire community would watch they would make this a live event.
Would be way more fun than one of their arena's.

And him saying "most likely" is a confirmation enough to create a big headline news about how 2 players, one of which stated his reasons very clearly, decline the invite. Do you have some undisclosed sources which said so? This cannot be proved or disproved. Unless you can name your other sources, you created a drama out of unconfirmed loosely stated sentence.
Dont give us that shit...

uninformative statements must receive any kind of punishment.

I mean, of course it's true. It's just that the title that Slasher created is ridiculously misleading and that's pretty annoying.

ESF players do have the power now, but sadly they can only keep this going for a certain amount of time.. after that, people will get more into the KeSPA pros as they catch up in skill, and things probably won't matter as much anymore.
