Very interesting that KeSPA is getting involved.


LG has two LoL teams


Which is exactly why it is interesting. Wouldn't KeSPA want to kill the opposition's teams? :D

It's a bit early to bring out the pitchforks, but this really doesn't reflect well on LG.

As for KeSPA, I'm sure they have their own reasons for doing this investigation, be it a prospective pickup of IM or something else. Maybe IM went to KeSPA with this because they thought ESF wouldn't have the punching power required to get LG to listen.

Good luck with all of this IM!

Btw. Where are all that "KeSPA is the big bad wolf" people?


They might do a good thing every once in a while but they usually are the big bad wolf :p

At least they're stable. ESF sponsors and teams are looking shaky lately

Shame on you LG....

Edit: If Kespa manages to get LG paying, could this be a loosening to ESFs and KESPAs "cold war"?


We really don't know how here if there is still a cold war between the two organizations. There's little information around of how the status between eSF and Kespa is. We only have the fanboy wars in every live report thread ^^

Just a minor thing, it's Coach Kang (Hirai), not Coach Park. Don't know where you got that from...

Wasn't KeSPA something related to the KR government ?

I would understand that, under intelligent and careful leadership, they act consistently _for_ the korean esports organization...

Well, I guess I'm a fool and it's just that there might be some interests somewhere....

this is quite bad from LG no question about it. but IM strikes me as unbelivably naive reading this "article". you dont advertise a sponser for 10 months without getting payed just because of some promise. maybe you would give them some extra time like 2-3 months out of respect and goodwill but 10!? i dont really understand why they would be so patient and even turn down other sponsors.

... well, I guess I'm sort of glad that I saw this before replacing the broken monitor, but it really leaves a bad taste in my mouth. :/

:/ eSports seems to be a synonym for getting screwed over by being naiv. Why would you wait that long and even refuse other sponsors? Why wouldn't they use the other sponsors to pressure LG if LG was that important to them. This whole thing just doesn't add up.

Coach Park? Dunno if Hirai's last name is Park, so I can say if thats a typo or not. I'm quite surprised that such a big company like LG would screw up like this

Well Kespa would get involved in such affairs if, for instance, they wanted LG-IM to join Kespa and participate in ProLeague....

Thinking this further, this probably means the end of GSTL, too. Unless GOM manages to drag a bunch of foreign teams into their team league to replace IM, NSH and Azubu.

Wow, for shame LG. I was really happy that you were supproting IM, now this? I feel like KeSPA is stepping in because they were looking at adding LG-IM into the "KeSPA ranks" with the new League of Legends Pro League and next seasons SPL
