I was a huuuuuuuuuuuuuge SlayerS fan and when MMA left and then the team was announced to disband, those were incredibly sad days for me. However, I'm not in a rush to completely blame one side, be it eSF for imposing a restriction or SlayerS/Boxer/Jessica for... well I don't want to get into all this again! Details are clear and facts are facts, Coach Won as a respresentative of eSF did this: On October 19 2012, StarTale's head coach Won Jong Wook resigned from his position as president of the e-Sports Federation amid a controversy regarding the relationship between the Federation and the recently disbanded team SlayerS. Kim "Jessica" Ga Yeon, manager of the latter organisation, had indeed explained that the members of teams affiliated to the e-Sports Federation were instructed for a period of many months to not practice with SlayerS's players, which was a significant detriment in preparing for tournaments. | ||

I'm just suggesting that since a whole lot of former SlayerS members have ended up on KeSPA teams that says something. You know, if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck? Now, what it says I'm not exactly sure but I think it has to do with them feeling slighted by ESF. That doesn't mean I can place the blame anywhere definitively I'm just saying theres a definite trend with where the former players are heading. Yeah that's a good point, it definitely suggests that that might be the case.

Back when this happened, I spent hours going through shit and found many instances of players on both sides thanking each other for practice during what was guessed to be the ban period when I was in the midst of pointless, emotionally charged debates. This doesn't mean that there was not a ban, it just means that what actually happened between the teams during those months isn't as straightforward as "they never played games against each other". Right though, I am going down the wrong road right now, I think it's time I leave this thread! Grats to CoCa!!!!!! | ||

Yeah that´s what I dont get either O_o Also it seems like he joined the team some weeks ago, which was not announced. Maybe because they kney, that they will discharge some of the players later... And that would look stupid, signing one and releasing four. | ||

Kicking a bunch of players for underperforming and then signing one that qualified for challenger league is a dumb move now? | ||
