SNM didnt say shit, he was merely translating rumours. learn the difference


By doing so, he spread the rumor in the foreign scenes. He knew that was going to happen, too. Simply "translating" my ass.

Seriously guys, lay off poor snm. The guy merely translated the rumours because he knew the foreign community would be interested in knowing what's going on during PL off season. Not his fault they were grabbed and paraded around as if they were 100% truth. Communities fault imo, not his especially when he mentioned in each one that it's a rumour!

Interviews didn't give much answers lol. I'm pretty sure they'll eventually join KeSPA.


He had no reason to translate unfounded rumors, especially rumors that put players and teams in awkard positions. It was very unprofessional of him and all he did was cause confusion and drama. He has connections to KeSPA and esports teams and his "rumors" are taken seriously, especially when he did not specifically say that the source of the rumors were unreliable.

He could translate whatever rumour he wants. It's his twitter account sheesh >< Idc if he has connections to KeSPA or the teams, people wanted to know about the KR scene, he translated and said it was a rumour then the community grabbed on to it like that. There is a reason its called a rumour and by definition, it means it might or might not be right! He doesn't even work for PL last time I checked(he left to continue education or something I believe) so you can't really say that he was unprofessional when he's not working for them.

These guys need to take PR training or something, 'cause this is one of the most blatant "hush hush furtive wink wink cover our tracks" interviews I've ever read.

Need to take? It sounds like they've already passed it with flying colors.

Good PR is soothing the community's worries while revealing no information. This is just making the community suspicious while revealing no information. It's hardly better than "no comment."

Conceded. It was good in that it revealed no information, but bad in that it eased (almost) nothing.

well, the better move would have been to decline the interview altogether

but as long as they were going to do it, they made the prudent replies, regardless of their actual future plans. there's no reason whatsoever to talk about their future moves until they're 100% set in stone.

IM and Prime could've declined (especially IM, whose answers made no sense), but I feel MVP was right in clarifying MVP.SC2 still exists.

However, it does look like their LoL team are in negotiations to turn into Samsung. It does place them in an awkward place, since having both teams (especially one has good as Ozone) means better chances for all of MVP to thrive,

I'm confused how not doing GSTL is supposed to help them. I mean, are they going to make their players sit around all day and contemplate how to make more money?

wtf how could zou get nothing from that interview?

IM was probably most cryptic - only sure thing is that they in talks to join Kespa (since 'other opportunities' basically = Kespa, because there are no other opportunities besides Kespa and eSF in Korea).

MVP was more straight - they are not disbanding, they are selling one of their LoL teams and also plan to join Kespa asap.

And Prime was desperate - they need sponsor and they need it ASAP. And they hope Kespa will help them find one (lolno).

It's clear as water..

Is that really the case? MVP.LoL has a few sponsors that don't sponsor MVP.SC2, notably resulting in MVP.SC2 doing a fundraiser to travel to Germany for Acer TeamStory Cup.

They have two right? Maybe Samsung takes one (hopefully the none-ozone one) so they can be in LoL Proleague and MVP still keeps Ozone?

It doesn't matter if it's his twitter account or not. He's connected to KeSPA and esports, so his rumors have credibility. You don't just go spread bunch of unfounded rumors that affect your formal employer negatively, that's unprofessional. He was stupid enough to spread the rumors and had to make formal apology to the Koreans on his twitter.

I like how they act like there was a choice like: "we are checking our options between KeSPA and.. well, KeSPA. Everything is going perfectly with the negotiations with KeSPA, but we are seeing other options too, like joining mustache KeSPA".

So Kespa is basically doing a quid quo pro with the Teams:

Kespa fixes Teams' sponsor/financing problems, Teams more likely to join Kespa because Kespa can deliver to goods and ensure each Team's continued survival.

Seems like win/win.
