KeSPA is the only reason Jaedong still has a job.


Oh please. If KeSPA doesn't keep Jaedong paid, ESF or foreign teams will gladly pick him up.

Jaedong earns more than all eSF combined.

Jaedong can retire.

Not that he wants to, but my point is he certainly has enough money to live on for quite a while.

Ignoring whether KeSPA's policies are ideal, whenever they're stated like this, it helps create a peaceful, coordinated SC2 ecosystem. Only when KeSPA's cards are on the table should we spend much effort on getting it to play nicely with the rest of the scene. Another card is on the table now, so I see that as a good thing.

This is madness! What a joke, first Kespa generates much drama and creates much controversy, and now they don't? They can't even stick to their policies or methodologies! How dare they respond to criticism from the community and approve on themselves as an organization?

Everything KeSPA said is perfectly reasonable. Their players are bound by much bigger sponsor contracts than anyone in the eSF or foreign scene, so obviously Proleague and OSL have to be their priorities. They're just saying that they need approval from the sponsor board to go to foreign events.

What's the problem here?

Why do you think they request contact with Kespa in order to invite players?

Because they are KeSPA's players, for KeSPA's teams, dealing with KeSPA's potential tournaments. Stop finding reason to rip on KeSPA.

another kespa team would buy him 100% in the event that t8 disbanded. it's not like foreign teams have the money to buy jaedong to begin with, EG would literally have to release every other sc2 player on their team to afford him.

This thread is good for revealing people who are either ignorant of what Kespa is or who hate on Kespa for absolutely no reason.

I am thinking more and more that the right response of the world is to just start ignoring KeSPA and their players altogether. So you wanna have your nice closed leagues with your private superstars? Cool. We can have fun without you.


Which means growing local talent, but everyone wants to see the best players ...

Maybe you have eyes.
But he is never making short-term prediction, everyone of his prediction are based on fundenmentals, but he doesn't exactly know when it will happen... So using these kind of narrowed "who-is-right" empirical analysis makes little sense.

They dont want tournaments throwing huge piles of money at KeSPA players to get them to dump there current kespa tournament for the other one.

And that's fine.
