Glad that you guys settled your differences, I guess Dragon needs to be a little more deliberate in his actions. :-P
GL to both parties!

This could have all been worked out without anyone outside of core and clarity gaming knowing. The fact that there was an announcement of the "investigation" in r/starcraft speaks volumes to the professionalism used by both parties.

I'm glad everything worked out for everyone, and I hope that other teams as well as Core/Clarity have learned a great lesson here. It can be hard for a company to sponsor your team if they think at the first sign of issues your going to launch an "investigation" publicly. Hopefully both teams can rebound from this embarrassment.

I'm glad in the end this was handled in a civilized manner. Kudos to both teams, though it could have been a bit smoother in terms of public appearance.

I think the situation was handled well, despite the initial issue.
no biggie and it pretty much solved pretty quickly so nothing to pitchfork about

So Dragon didnt wanted to leave Clarity after all. Or he doesnt have section in deal that he can leave Clarity (what is realy weird)
Fusilero: "I still can't believe he did that, like dude what the fuck there's fandom and then there's what he did like holy shit. I still see it when I close my eyes." <- reaction to the original drunk santa post which later caught on

I think of it more like protecting our investment in YongSoo. We spent a lot of money housing him and flying him about so I think publicly acknowledging the situation was appropriate. If we had caught wind of this before Core made the announcement of him joining their team then I am pretty confident that none of this would have been public.

Dragon has been absolutely cooperative and understanding of the whole situation (he did not do anything wrong). I recommend that everyone support him and his stream.


As far as I know Dragon had no idea what was going on when it blew up, at least no one had briefed him when I chatted with him.

Hopefully both parties have apologized to him for this inconvenience.

Lol @ all the people still trying to make a big thing out of it despite the fact it wasn't. Watch some TV if you're so into that drama nonsense.

Core wants Dragon but Dragon has contract with Clarity
Core talks to wrong Clarity guy who decides to release Dragon
Core announces Dragon as their player
Right guy on Clarity goes nonono
Now we wait

I think that's about it
