If I understand correctly, because she and Boxer were passionate and bold enough to invest into the team, which is great and admirable. She is still a horrible manager - being passionate and being a good manager may go hand in hand, but, alas, here this seems not to be the case. so you are saying that she contributed nothing to the team when the team got successful but when it went bad she has to take all the blame?

The thing that makes me believe Jessica is that, according to IdrA who trained some time at the Slayers House, slayers was quite a relaxed team in comparaison to the time he spent in other teams during his SC1 carreer. So, saying slayers was like "slavery" feel like a lie.

People outside of Slayers basically agreed that there was indeed an ambarguo against Slayer from the federation ?

Yep, they all agree that there was an official embargo. They just argue about whether or not there was an unofficial one after the official embargo's term has ended and how long it lasted.

Yes, multiple sources confirmed this: FXOBoSS, Tod on SotG, MC, the head of ESF himself (though he claimed it was only for a short duration) and so on.

Also she went to negotiate with ESF coaches but with no result. She went to thisisgame withthe whole story 2 month in prior to let them publish the story, which they didnt. She had no choice then to do this by herself, which she did

I hate how people discredit Jessica for the success of Slayers. Boxers is a great guy, and a good player/coach, but he's not the management type. Without Jessica, I don't think Slayers would have been formed.
I think the downfall has more to do with Jessica being a woman running a team. All the other teams will make life difficult for her, and they got their bullying ways. Male domination is very strong in asian countries.

I think alot of people are missing the bigger picture here. It's not just Jessica's fault, or MMA, or anyone from team Slayers. It sounds like Federation managers did alot of shady stuff and encouraged bullying or not supporting Slayers. Slayers as a team was being isolated, discouraged, and their members bullied. It's hard for anyone not to have doubts after staying there long enough. U know all that saying, if you don't believe a lie from one person telling it, but after 100 you won't be so sure? It also sounds like MMA couldn't handle all the drama and stress. And jessica didn't do enough damage control in time. It's sad to see Slayers go, but i wish their players well. Lost all respect for federation though. I have 0 respect for shady ass monopolizers who is the only winner who's happy Slayers disbanded in this sad event.

You have no idea what's happened, the vast majority of people don't but the really sad thing? You are so confident in your ignorance, it's vomit-inducing really. People wonder why the eSports scene has so much drama. This is why, people that know nothing, pretending to know something.
Not to take sides or anything but I find this a little a blind sighted since you have no direct, first hand experience on what happened either. Of course you'll be using the source of information you have; however, in each case that's been brought up it's hard for anyone to make an accurate judgement call since it's all "he said she said" with inklings of evidence pointing one way or the other.
I suppose we'll find out what sort of statement is made soon. I'm just hoping you have no intentions of "clearing" everything because people will still have reservations on this issue regardless of what new "true" information is revealed.
In any case, I do agree a lot of people are misunderstanding and saying things they really shouldn't be.. but you can't really expect more !
edit: ooo you ninja'd your post but.. I'll leave mine as it is >.>

I don't understand Boxer's reasoning in leaving the team that is named after him. I don't care who did what, but the captain has to go down with the ship imo.
sad sad story. slayers was hands down my fav team.

To answer some baseless scepticism.
We are not releasing the statement yet because there are detailed Korean articles coming out on Sunday evening which give exceptional insight into the whole situation from the perspectives of CranK and MMA. Releasing a statement now and then having some random person translate it into Korean could result in all manner of problems. Biased translators exist and when it comes to Boxer he is a sacred cow that can do no wrong. I'd also like to add that CranK required a great deal of convincing to speak publicly about this issue. He has no desire to talk ill of anyone but his hand was forced by people who have no such qualms.
Also, it's my 5 year wedding anniversary and I would have really liked to spend it with my wife not dealing with Korean drama, but it was not to be. Whoop-de-doo.

I don't know if you're expecting people to empathize with your situation while you sarcastically remark(edit: I meant overly portray the bias in the situation when there are in fact people willing to look at this situation on a provable, factual basis) about others in the same regard... Not sure the best way to categorize that sort of characteristic but it doesn't really help in an objective discussion**. I do hope you have an enjoyable anniversary nonetheless.
I must have misunderstood your first post I saw in the thread yesterday(I think). So sorry for expecting a statement, I'll be looking for the korean perspectives that will be released in the near future. Though, I'll still be applying what I noted above to whatever new information is released, regardless of who(MMA, crank, or jessica for that matter) it is, as well! haha
**edit 2: I suppose the best way to word this would be to say, emotional appeal is a "loaded" approach to a logical argument. I'm sure there is some logical fallacy for it that has escaped me, but you get the idea! o:
