Juan 'Terran' Lopez Released From Sixjax Gaming
When we first recruited Juan 'Terran' Lopez he represented both an opportunity and a liability. He was as famous for his poor attitude as he was for his expectional grasp of the game. We took a chance when we picked him up, and things didn't work out like we wanted. As of September 2nd, 2011 Juan 'Terran' Lopez will no longer be a part of the Sixjax Gaming organization.
Juan, though an outstanding player, couldn't meet the professional and ethical expectations of our sponsor and upper management. In the few months he's been with our team he's has breached his contract on several occasions, and despite constant warnings he has continued to act out.
That is simply unacceptable. Starcraft is more than a game for our team; it is a profession.
As Juan has proven through his actions that he has no intentions of changing, we here at Sixjax have been left with no choice but to terminate his contract and release him.
We wish him the best of luck in the future, and I, personally, am certain that there is a deal somewhere out there that will be a perfect fit for him.

and now,

statement from Major


ok, first of all the only wrong thing i remember i did was doing the SEA Event and the WBC insident of MLG was more because he started trash talking in a middle of an active game,even tough its wrong and i shouldnt had done it , i did it and i cant change it, it was a mistake and wont happen again. Also i want to clear up some stuff they said i been asking for being realesed for over a month maybe longer since the first day i signed with sixjax they promised they would send me to korea as fast as possible, they apparently had a deal with IM about 2 months ago but it felt down, so i was dissapointed by that but they tried to find a new deal with another team , aka TSL which they basically said were inches to complete and felt again , made me to start doubting about ever making their making their promise right , the thing that made me the most mad was Last MLG when they send 0 players to MLG i asked for a reason and Evoli(team manager) asked the owner of sixjax but he apparently responded with wait a few days we have an annoucment to do, so i was kinda piss at that time than by my self i got in contact with NshoseoSAGE and after test games i was accepted in NSH house so i asked sixjax if they would willing to send me to korea and me staying in NSH for free(no food to pay rent or anyhthing), they said no and at that point i decided to leave and dont play for them anymore i told em i wouldnt accept anymore payments.



Sixjax statement #2

Dispelling Some Rumors Surrounding Juan Lopez's Release

The community has done a great deal of speculating about the details of Juan 'Terran' Lopez's release from our team yesterday. Since Juan and Alex 'Skew' Brola have decided to go public about certain things, we feel that it is appropriate to respond.

First, a deal was reached last month to send Juan to South Korea. He wasn't sent after the following events occured:

Juan showed up to MLG Anaheim without either of the two jerseys (which his contract requires him to wear) he was provided with at MLG Columbus. When confronted about the jerseys he lied to the team manager and said he had given them away to fans at the previous event. A pro-player Juan was close to came forward and informed us Juan left them in his room at the previous MLG.
Juan, after losing a series, swore at the pro-player WBC at MLG Anaheim. He caused such a scene that MLG Admins were forced to give him a techincal foul.

In a streamed online tournament shortly after MLG Columbus he swore at his teammate DDE over the course of a few games. DDE personally contacted team management about the issue as he thought it was signifcant enough to warrant bringing to our attention.

With those issues in mind we decided not only to not send him to Korea, but to terminate his contract as addressed yesterday.

In regards to the rumors that we have threatened to sue Juan:

Shortly after MLG Columbus Juan approached the team's management wanting a raise. The team's upper management felt it was inapproriate to raise his salary at the time; we told Juan we would be willing to entertain the conversation if he performed similarly at the next MLG. Juan did not respond well when informed that his salary would not be raised. He began immediately shopping around for other teams, and let our organization know that he was leaving. Juan had signed a fifteen month contract with Sixjax. He was contractually obligated to play for our team. Juan put up a fight for the next half week, refusing to play in clan wars and insulting management when contacted. After several days Sixjax's upper management contacted Juan personally and let him know that both he and his mother had agreed upon a fifteen month contract when he signed, and that it would be legally impossible for him to leave and join another team without being released from his contract. Juan resented the position of the team management, and insisted that he would find a way out of his obligations. He began mentioning to his teammates that he felt threatened. It wasn't until our team captain, Artosis, spoke to him that he gave up his position.

This is all documented.

In regards to Alex 'Skew' Brola's statements today: it really hurts us that he left the team with such a sour perception of our organization. We believe he had a fairly good deal when he was still employed here, and even when he left we thought it was on a good note. He wanted to leave the organization as he didn't think it was the right fit, and we accommodated his wishes almost immediately.

We are sorry that internal issues that should have remained internal have had to be discussed in this fashion. Our team was planning on not making any remarks about things, but rumors and allegations have gotten out of hand. We want our organization and our thoughts on these matters to be represented as the community's dialogue continues.

It's sad because he's capable of being such a good player but to be honest this was not surprising to me.

Comes as no surprise to me, he always has been the same, far worse than NaNiWa was in his "immature" phase, and its been rolling for a long time.

Don't know what team will pick him up, I hope noone does until he has proven that he can behave and be professional within a professional environment

Not a surprise, he's immature to say the least. And it shows and hurts his already bad reputation

Not sure what the breeches of the contract were, but I can't think of him doing anything that seemed to out of line. He's posted good results, had 1 cock up with the trying to get into that SEA tournament (I think) and seemed like he's practicing hard.

Ah well Best of luck being teamless Major

I bet team captain Artosis will be sad

For a guy who apparently wants to go to Korea, he really doesn't seem to have the maturity to get there. A guy who can't even stay on a team that is mainly based online would probably have no chance ever being able to live with a Korean team.

Hopefully teams will little by little start to understand, that Major won't ever change. Might sound a bit harsh, but still..

he must of done something really bad ;/ sixjax is looking like a pretty shallow squad with only 1 maybe 1.5 decent players now. its a shame that artosis has been unable to bring in any talent to the team that actually wants to stick around :D

Has he done something major(lol) lately that caused them to terminate his contract? Last thing I heard that he did was the whole ordeal with some tournament and using someone else's account.

This was expected, as everyone knows. It is sad because he is a very strong player, but he needs to grow up first.
