Happy: Your event is too poor to participate in. I withdraw.
WCG: You know what? We'll BAN you from participating.

I kinda wonder what he is trying to achieve. If he just stated "i am withdrawing due to personal reasons" nobody would notice. This way he is drawing attention to the situation, but i doubt this will change anything. I mean, everyone knows wcg was/is getting worse and worse with time, no surprise there.
Pathetic Greta hater.

So it's no longer a top level competition, and you're worried it'd be a waste of time because you won't win.

At least his spot will go to someone that cares.
Legalize it!

Who cares, happens all the time. I can understand him, especiall if it's someone like Happy who has seen first hand how WCG got progressively worse over the years.

If he feels like it's a terrible event, he shouldn't be forced to go.

They could tweet that Empire.Happy actually encouraged Crank to leave Slayers and the rest will take care of itself...

Hahahah, genius :d

I don't really blame Happy, it's your own choice to go or not. I don't see why this deserves a punishment.
Micro at its best is like an elegant dance between two people trying to achieve a similar end.

In an other hand, why would you participate in a qualifier if you know from the get go you won't go if you qualify? It's dishonest imo. I don't know, looks like you get the money with the "easy" part and just get the fuck out before looking bad.
Btw, where is it said that there will be a punishment? I must be dumb but i can't see it =C

Edit: nevermind, found it, i'm dumb.

Also number 2 is completely false. Many people (vast majority under 25) in China speak English.

Eh, depending on what the punishment is. I could understand them not wanting him in any more qualifiers next time or a slice of whatever prizes wcg russia offered. It hurts them, so fair is fair all around, everyone happy.

Honestly, if change is ever to come I would like to see more players turn down their seeds in such a tournament so Samsung would have no choice but to re-consider how they go about the WCG.

That's a lot of bullshit in there. If you actually don't think you can win something so you'd rather not even try, you should just quit. How can you be a professional gamer and then shy away from competition? Sounds like the wrong profession. Or did he just play WCG Russia to beat up on players he thinks are lower than him, hence why he cowers vs better competition? I don't care that he doesn't want to play in WCG, players miss tournaments all the time for whatever reason they want. What sucks are his excuses.

agree here , he sound like realy antisocial too , im sure he would have find people who talk english lol....
and just the fact he got a free trips pay to one other country would make most people happy , he say he got nothing to do the first day , how about you go out and see the city ??!!

that fine if he think he not good enough for win , but he should be a professional , the mindset just wrong .

and wcg = a fun tournament where you visit a new country who was here since the broodwar day , and the prize not that bad , why he need hurt wcg in the first place because he dont want go ? why he played the qualifier too ? why he need to give reason like that ? he act realy not professional , just lame lol

It sucks to pull out and I do wish he would have looked into these things before competing but with how WCG doesn't give paid trips and the conditions are quite poor I do not fault him for his sentiments either.

Well, he should probably just stop playing Starcraft if he started playing it for the money. This makes no sense, and all I see are poor excuses for a great opportunity. What a baby...


what world do you live in? ofc he plays for money, as most pros do and have to do.

Why don't attend both starcraft and WC3? Then he may have better chances.
