SlayerS

I don't even... seriously what ?

I can't help but wonder about Jessica's role. I mean, she said that she cared a lot and that she was completely devoted to make players feel good. But all the players testimony (even in her message) are "I don't feel right about you" "What have you done ?3 etc. etc.

My sixth sense is tingling... Something doesn't feel right...

Also, poor BoxeR... After all these investments...

If someone I trust and pay to help me tried to underhand me in my business, I'd sue the hell outta that person until that person has no money for himself, his father, mother, sons and daughters.

i'm going to sue you.

So much hate for jessica here. From this translation it seems like she usually tried to do the right things, but she's just too emotional. Wonder what the others have to say.


I believe there have been past events that have contributed to general community dislike of Jessica. She's quite known for creating unnecessary drama.

For that reason, I do hope that she doesn't interfere with SKT T1.


She's not generally known for creating drama (she's actually very much drama-free in terms of being a celerity), but she is known to have a hot temper.

The main root cause is not Jessica, but it is the way Slayers players were treated from other pro-gamers in Korea. They were being bullied and treated as outcasts.


Well also it seems that the SlayerS players themselves had a problem with authority and would attack one another or strongly take sides (and even get a little too big for their britches, so to speak)... but yes, I agree that the collapse seems to be more centered around the players, rather than Jessica.

But I think when you remember things like how she tried suing someone for "cyber defamation" because she got insulted online... a lot of times she creates mountains out of molehills.


You have to experience the Korean culture to understand the "bullying" that's going on here. Many kids commit suicides every year because of it. And, there is just a general negative attitude and energy around the one who's being bullied. If half of Jessica's story is based on truth, especially the part about how Slayers have been bullied by other teams, then I completely understand how some of the players wanted to "get out" of the team behind Jessica's back. After all, in the eyes of players, "someone" had to take the blame for the situation that they were in. This wasn't what they signed up for.

And then, you have a moron like Alicia who's completely got a wrong mindset.


Well to be fair, Korea isn't unique in that aspect lol. That's a universal problem. Every week, you hear about a suicide victim of bullying and read an article about it on TL- most of them are from America. Everywhere has prejudice and ignorance and people unfairly ganging up on others, etc.

I'm not dismissing the fact that SlayerS was being attacked by other teams. But a bunch of the SlayerS players did dumb things too, independent of that. There's just pretty much a lot of bad things that contributed to the downfall of the team, I'd say.


No, it's not the same kind of bullying universally. Bullying in Japan is like what jellyjello described. It's like a group mentality thing, isolate specific people, very sad.

MMA crying with the crowd chanting his name at MLG Columbus is still my favourite moment in gaming history. If he believes Jessica was embezzling money then I'm choosing to believe that he had good reason to think so, true or not. Still coming out of this as a big MMA fan.

MMA must have a solid counter answer if it's his fault that Boxer lost his passion to play the game. I hope MMA have a really solid answer.

Until now, for myself, i'll boycoyt every MMA match for what it's worth (meaning nothing). As a huge fan and follower of Boxer i really can't understand how you could disrepect the man.

If this kids can be paid playing video game, it's because of him.

Oh please, is anybody seriously buying this "he did x, so now I don't want to play" bs?
MMA is just used as scapegoat and excuse.


Why not ? Did you never have a passion that somebody crushed ?

I've had a few situations where I was given a mild push into direction I was going to anyway.


Then you are quite a lucky man. Whas this passion something you gave your WHOLE life ?

People keep playing music instruments/painting after losing hands/sight.
People keep racing cars after breaking every bone in their body.
People keep on living after losing their whole family to disasters.
Teachers keep on teaching to ungrateful shits, while getting severely underpaid.

You're seriously going to tell me that something a 18 year old said is severe enough to call "crushing passion"?


When a 18 year old is touted as a "son", I would give it consideration.

Imagine a son telling his father that he doesn't trust him.


This. Sounds to me like Boxer and Jessica should have kept all of this strictly business. Because they invested so much emotionally they end up hurt like this.

And I can't find the post anymore that says that this seems to be about a difference in mentality between generations and I think that's true, to a certain extent. I think it's just a difference of general perspective. Boxer comes from the Kespa side which is all professional and extremely dedicated to working on the game itself. Most ESF players have admitted that they moved to SC2 to relax more.

After reading through Jessica's portrayal I don't believe all of it. I don't know why, but it seems like stuff is missing, there must be a lot that is being left out because right now the narrative makes less than total sense.


Probably caused by the translation imo. It's hard to have a perfect understanding of a language if it's not your native one. Especially with Asian languages. Choose to not translate a character because it seems not important but in fact change the entire meaning of the sentence. Might be true that she's leaving some things out because she forgot exactly how it was or lying/making things better for her tho.

Anyway, i tend to believe her side of the story at least until i got an other point of view. Boxer leaving the team was a huge tell that something was wrong and i'm sure he would have been angry with Jessica if she was doing something bad.

Another proof that managing a team is a fulltime job that takes more than just good will to be done correctly. Teams need to step up and hire qualified people to do that.

I'm just really disappointed in ESF and whatever they were before that. It just seems like all we have is another Kespa on our hands.

I'm actually not familiar with Kespa drama. Did they do anything similar in terms of isolating teams and such? I know they had a lot of drama with Blizzard.

Jessica comes from a wealthy family and has a superstar boyfriend and provided a LOT for their players, and she was supposed to be embezzling money from the sponsors? I can't believe that for a second.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

I think Boxer modeled Slayers after SKT T1, which went very well. Slayers was doing quite well earlier and there was a nice team atmosphere (remember when they won their first GSTL). Not sure what happened afterwards so it's become like this in the end. Probably a mixture of mismanagement, lack of communication, and inflated egos.
