Is it just me or is Jessica getting more and more annoying?

Basically, Boxer didn't do that bad, aside from playing that random game and not looking after his team.
Crank with MMA and 'MMA's thugs'- They seemed to be silent when they should have spoken out loud. Sometimes it seemed like they can't take care of themselves. They need to grow up a bit. However, that's their only fault as I see it.
Jessice - She's some crazy entitled woman. Her ego is of the charts. There's no reason to argue with her, as she obviously isn't going to back down from her position. She is right, everybody who doesn't agree is wrong AND she has to correct them.

I hope this drama ends soon.

can someone just make a fucking tl;dr thread of all this drama so it doesn't take all morning to figure out what new shitstorm occurred in the korean sc2 scene overnight?

Just wait till it all ends, I'm sure someone will sum it up nicely.

Until then, go watch some player streams or poke around in Sheth's post and wait for the GSL ^_^.

That's exaclty what I'm doing. Just woke up and saw that I was 20 minutes early for the GSL.
It's good to be back

What's funny is that exactly one year before MMA received said "news" from "Manager J" (on February 15. 2012), BoxeR joined Team Razer (i.e. personal sponsorship) presumably with a 1-year contract:

And somehow this personal sponsorship must have been also extended to the team, as throughout 2011 you see SlayerS players sporting Razer stuff, for instance in this MLG Providence video special about SlayerS:

15 Feb 2012 is when MMA is being told by "Manager J" about personal sponsorship not going to him.

Both sponserships in fact (personal ones for Boxer and MMA), which doesn't make sense.

Stupid move by a Razer manager IMO. He's just put his company in the frontline of this whole mess without making himself clear, and now he has to backtrack like an idiot.

From what Ive gathered MMA was supposed to pay Manager J himself since he was MMAs personal coach. Have i got that right?

If thats the case then it doesnt make any sense for Manager J to mess with MMAs personal sponsorship since it would probably benefit him aswell and maybe give him some money.

That's a different coach you are thinking of. The personal coach's name start with an R, so I doubt it is Manager J.

She is a witch who is secretly trying to watch the whole world burn [/SARCASM].



Both the western community and the Korean community are being ridiculous in this situation. The western community, or the majority of them think Jessica is out to watch the world burn when what MMA, Alicia, and Crank did was wrong especially when they basically destroyed Slayers and the investment by Boxer/Jessica by being ungrateful kids. Koreans are being just as ridiculous because Jessica's attitude/approach played as big a part in the demise of Slayers.

Wouldn't that imply you're being doubly ridiculous by basically agreeing with both sides, which in the big picture makes even less sense than what either side claims? -_-

Stupid move by the Stracraft community telling the sponsorship manager for one of the largest sponsors of our scene that he is stupid for trying to clear things up.

Razer might have a nice view of the SC2 Community and all the drama we create or stir up. Nice image we're creating here ..

I wouldn't wonder if Razer starts to push much more money into LoL instead of starcraft ... -.-*

What we're doing right now with Chris is showing him what a minefield sponsoring SC2 can be for his company. It's not that he owes us anything. They are sponsors!

Just speculation, but possible reasons would be

1. GSTL partnership with EG (Steelseries)

2. Personal Razer sponsorship for only BoxeR and MMA would make it VERY difficult for the rest of the team to get gaming gear sponsors.
