Stop derailing this thread. This is an announcement concerning two players. If you want to talk about players who are not MajOr and LeiYa, you're in the wrong thread.

And on a more serious note, I'm fine with this. Major has really chilled out the past six months or so and has been a really good community figure. I hope his dream comes true and he can become a member of SKT.
context?
major and naniwa jump teams so many times, so now that major left a team again, its naniwa's turn to switch teams too? lol
Is Naniwa currently even on a team?
He is teamless, but he has a personal sponsorship from Mionix. So he's in the same situation as Violet.
Not exactly, Violet gets a salary. Naniwa stated in a post here on TL Mionix only covers his travel costs.

And Scarlett is actually a dude too? Why is it marked as "the most successful female sc2" when there's a penis hanging between her/his/it's legs.
Jesus
I mean it's not fair to real girls that some husky voiced tranny is taking their crown, in fact it's worse because it further pushes women out if the only competitive "chicks" used to be guys/still are but won't admit it
-.- seriously?
I have a dick between my legs which means I can't turn up to women's sports. I can't break the women's 100m because I'm a man and women are slower, even if I was convinced I was a woman. Your not a woman or a man because you DECIDE; it's a permanent biological condition and plastic surgery does not address this. So yeah, holding up Scarlett as the women's role model when she is biologically a man is abit silly no?
as far as i'm concerned you're a dick entirely. no fucking point in arguing with someone who is so clearly deluded with the idea that you are what you look like. read up on kleinfelter's. read about turner's. read about SRY translocation. read about androgen insensitivity. then fucking tell us if you still think gender is as black and white as you make it out to be. you know next to nothing about either of these people and yet you just assume they're deciding what they want to be.
I'm guessing there are no mods on at the moment, 'cause he'd have been warned/banned for his first post alone.
It's all good if people switch genders, and it's great that TL is so accepting. But I sincerely hope that people don't overestimate, hype up, or go wild about the transgender thing. It's what happened with Scarlett - she's great, don't get me wrong, but from the very start when she was an obscure random name that beat a Korean, she was incredibly over-hyped (like when she got knocked out of the tournament I checked TL and there was already a 8 page fan club).
still dont get it why they ban him fckin cencorship, he wasnt offending just telling his opinion .. i have no problem with transgenders but i still get his point, if hussein bolt would change sex and breaks all female running records is it fair/legit??
Why does everyone keep saying that Juan is joining SKT1? I know they're recruiting practice partners, but has Juan stated that he wanted to apply or something?

I don't think so, but it all falls into place. Majors dream is to join a Kespa team, SKT1 announces that they are recruiting Terran practice partners, Major leaves ROOT a few days later.
And here everyone was joking that major would jump at the opportunity when SKT1 was looking for practice partners. I'm not sure why major wants to join a kespa team. I mean, I'm pretty sure the non-big name players aren't salaried, they have to practice ridiculous hours and generally don't have good working conditions.

He wasn't banned for this one post. He had a history of terrible posts and this one didn't help him. There would have been far less obnoxious ways to get a similar point across.
Starcraft is also different from running in that there are no obvious benefits to either gender. The male dominance is caused by mainly social circumstances. If someone identifies themselfs as a woman there are no reason they shouldn't be playing tournaments for women.

Technically only when they underwent sex-altering procedures.
Either way, who still cares about who is in what clan? This is not a team game anyway.
Not trying to be rude but it seems a bit delusional to think that a kespa team would want a mid tier foreigner with a pretty bad reputation tbh, who has no real chance of doing anything significant in the Korean scene. There's simply no reason any kespa team would want Major... if they go after any foreigner it will be a top tier one with a decent reputation. Goodluck though.
