I just don't really get this move from TRUE.

If True gonna play in WCS EU next year it makes much more sense for him.

I wonder how much money he'd actually get from this random team.

Best of luck to him.

It is all about the money. As long as dead pixels pay everything is fine.

I wouldn't say it's all about money.
1) Practice partners
2) Playing for a famous team makes you put more value into your matches (especially in team leagues like proleague, etc.)
and other things you can think of yourself.

Hopefully True doesn't get screwed.

At least TB has confirmed they paid the money for TRUE to stay at the Axiom house

But with TRUE being at the axiom house, and TB seeming to have an active role in this, I'd imagine at the first sign of this TB would out the team

You know what all these sketchy teams have in common? They pay initially then stop paying, then the player doesn't get paid for months until they finally say something.

Stephan Mott ( mYiPengwin ) said, that the Dead Pixel Guys are the same crew behind the Insomnia41 invitational and are fine. They are from swiss and have money. There is also a thinking about relocating the dead pixel players in the mYi Team House. As you have to optain a Visa for this, True could move to mYi Team House, having Jakji, Stardust and Sacsri as practice partner and he could play 2015 in WCS EU.

And hey Team Liquid Elite: You all talk about "dead game", teams dismanteling and leaving the scene. When someone tries to do something new and invest, its shady and gonna screw their players up? Oh come on, you behave like the average lol player.

In other kinda related news, PartinG's changed his name on twitter from SKT1_PartinG to PartinGBigBoy that's a little weird.

If that was the case then why would you get rid of arguably the 3rd best on the team rather than some of the lesser performers?

It would be quite sad if he did ended up leaving, although MyuNgSik did just leave KT so maybe there's an opening there

I don't understand why a player as good as TRUE would settle for a team nobody has heard of. I mean is there really nowhere else for him to go? Glad he at least has a stable practice environment and that his new team held up their end of that deal

At least LYGF got second

Foreign teams aren't looking for players, who was going to pick him up? Most " foreign " teams/sponsors only have a few players each. The larger teams like EG/TL/Acer/MYI aren't picking up players.

If you want a big foreign sponsor what you need is connections, results aren't going to get you that. Pigbaby is a perfect example of this.

Flash seems to genuinely dislike Parting so I don't think that would work .

No salary I guess.

Guessing that team Dead Pixels (which about three people had heard of beforehand) doesn't have the money to pay a player like TRUE isn't strange. It may be incorrect, but you should consider simply informing people instead of being snarky about it.

No, he guessed, he made that pretty clear. Making a guess based on available information isn't uncommon on a forum, and it puzzles me that you feel the need to personally inform everyone making an incorrect guess how silly they are for guessing wrong. You have the information, the people who don't would love to have that information. I don't see the appeal in making sure everyone knows that you know more than them.

if we aren't allowed to casually speculate and post inert opinions on forums anymore then i think i've misunderstood what forums are for

You don't see the appeal in delivering accurate information?

I suppose if you hang around a forum long enough that would happen



Here's an idea

Instead of posting "I guess he is not getting a salary", which implies a variety of things, including the potential illegitimate nature of his team and sponsor, you could say "Does anyone know if he is salaried?". You'd be surprised how different a response you get when you don't make shit up.

And yes guessing is making shit up, that's the whole point of guessing.

Just asking: You realize, that Zealously and ZenithM are two different persons, right? Because currently you are mixing their posts.

Ofc the icons are different, but is checking the icon the first thing, that you do when quoting someone? The names are phonetically not that far apart, which is the thing you are far more likely to remember about a poster than his icon, so my worries were justified, given the content of the posts.

No guessing on the internet!!

I hope he'll be able to get a Visa to compete in WCS EU. Real pity though, he had been looking so good, and now you just know his level of play will drop off some, even though he's staying with MYI.

my guess is most korean players simply don't know that there's a huge history of shady esports practices and organizations in the west. this one at least has some sort of agreement with TB and Axiom, which means if they turn out to be incompetent or nefarious we're at least going to hear about it

Is Deadpixel a French or Swiss team ? They recruited Elroye from nB which is kinda weird considering his level compared to True, so he must have some connections with the founder or something. I friend told me that Elroye's switch was known for months too... That's so weird.

Never heard of him but how do you know that he is a player? Maybe a manager(+translator) or smth.
