UPDATE 3:
- GosuGamers.net News
- fragster.de news
UPDATE 2: As seen in later comments to this thread, it is unconfirmed whether or not SuNNy actually said that maka/cool/tester were confirmed or just interested in joining MYM. After a search through CellaWeRRa's VODs on his livestream account found no VOD of today's incident, it cannot be proved either way.
Until new information comes to light on this matter, the situation is as follows:
- SuNNy spoke to Cella on his stream about playing for MYM, and salary of some form was discussed (roughly in the area of 500-650 euro)
- Several credible sources (affentod via twitter, fragster.de, etc.) posted news regarding the salary, etc.
- SuNNy was promptly let go from MYM
- A statement which was briefly translated below by Mahrgell (fragster.de news) left more questions than answers as to whether or not SuNNy was supposed to contact Cella or not, etc.
If you have any further information, please share it here so this can be cleared up.
UPDATE: Mahrgell did a brief translation of this news post which depicts SuNNy acting on false pretenses and has henceforth been kicked from MYM. Explanation is in the spoiler: fragster
+ Show Spoiler +MYM surprised by the news
they don't want to have anything to do with Sunnys actions
Sunny kicked
They never considered signing mentioned players
They only wanted to know market values of players to offer contract in special cases (kinda contradicts last statement)
They never talked about the pulic made salaries/details
they can con believe and can not understand this 'epic fail'
------------------------------------------
Well, as some of you may or may not know, CellaWeRRa was streaming when MYM SC2 manager, Sunny, asked for Cella to join MYM for a new Korean Squad.
They discussed Salaries, etc, and even potential teammates in the form of Cool, Tester and Maka.
Anavrin posted the info on REDDIT:
+ Show Spoiler +MyM.Sunny offered Cella a spot on a Korean division of MyM they're trying to make while Cella was streaming live 15 minutes ago.
MyM is sponsored by Razer. Cella is a top Korean zerg player who just qualified for the GSL.
Cella asked for cash, and demanded $650, and Sunny basically said yes before Cella took his stream offline.
The biggest incentive Sunny tried to use was that Cool, Tester, and Maka were interested in joining up (sounded like all three already agreed).
If this deal works out, it would mean that many of Korea's top players will be paid by a foreign team sponsored by a foreign company. More importantly, it may mean that the skill wall between foreigners and Koreans will erode with the switch from Brood War to WoL.
Maka had this to say when asked about joining MYM:

i was watching when this happened. They did talk about it but there was no "demanding" or anything. just some negotiations. Cella mentioned $650. that was it.

If he played more then he does he would be good and wouldn't have to complain about anything.

This. What a bribe. Why not grab IdrA? Cella is much better then MYM whether they agree or not. WeRRa not MYM =_=
I would have said 1,000,000$ if I was as good as Cella.

Facepalm at this going public. But what ever. If it happens it's good anyways.

I never said he was. I just said what I would have said because obviously he'll stay on WeRRa. So why not make it hard for the MYM guy?
MYM has like no zerg players so why don't they get IdrA and stop trying to jump players. It's silly.

Give me facts why would he stay in Werra instead of going MYM? Especially if he gets paid from MYM but not from Werra.

cella for TLAF!

again. I was watching when this happened. First MYM brought up that he would be paid a salary. Then Cella mentioned a figure after asked about what he needed.
There was no "demanding" or "bribes" or whatever else you guys try to sensationalize it into being.
|
Soooo.... is this a sign of some E-Sports drama to come?
|
well knowing mym, they would promise a huge salary and then not pay any of it.

someone has to speak the truth even if it hurts for some people

Interesting. Pretty bold of MYM to contact him directly on BNET, while streaming. It's also odd since I don't have much exposure to culture outside the USA that he 'demanded' $650 which seems so trivial to me. Yesterday on the ESL stream Take and Demuslim said in Ukraine the average monthly salary is like 250 euros so for winning their tournament he'd basically earn 2 months average salary o.0
