LOL @ best troll in this thread yet... or at least the funniest one :D
Some things need to come out in the open, namely the obligation (if any) that Puma had to TSL.

When EG got Idra, they went after a free agent and got him, they didn't go to CJ Entus to ask for him when Idra isn't on CJ anymore Right. And even further, unlike American sports leagues, there is no overall governing body over both teams, no CBA and no established precedent. So it's even freer than that system. | ||

They do that since over 5 years now. At least in the Western world. And this is something Korean teams have to comply with, they can't just live in their own universe and then argue with bad ethics. | ||

Or do you think that people are allowed to break contracts in the business world? lol There have to be stipulations saying he can't talk to other teams without permission or something like that. You don't just sign something that says "contract" and then can't talk to another team. And the post you're getting the playXP statemetn from specifically says RUMORS, from PlayXP POSTERS. It's like taking TL comments from a TL news article as truth, when we all know that it's far from that. | ||

Puma going to EG isn't bad the the player, its good for the player. He actually gets a salary now! | ||

Not a single person on EG is capable of providing Puma the type of practice he used to get where he is, and no longer being a part of a team house is going to destroy his practice habits. EG is either going to be recruiting other Koreans to form a practice house of their own, or they have no idea how the SC2 scene works right now. The skill-gap between foreigners and Koreans is not huge, and I'm sure that not all his practice partners are better than the players in EG. Plus, a lot of his practice partners are gone already considering Trickster, Rain and FruitDealer have left the Team already. I don't even know a TSL Z he can practice w/. | ||

Dude Stfu if you don't know what you're talking about. TSL is under the Korean Sc2 association, a governing body that you speak of. | ||

You seriously think this helps the Korean and foreign communities? FXO and fOu coming together, being friends, and joining? That is helping the community. EG "allegedly" poaching an ace from a Korean team that was sent to a foreign tournament and making the coach from the Korean team calling the movie disgusting is just going to hurt the merging of the communities. This could make the lesser Korean teams from sending their bigger named players in fear of richer foreigner teams poaching their players. | ||

This is a really stupid attitude that covers only the short term, if a player such as Puma does this and the Koreans react by all refusing to practice with him he's got a good salary but will get most likely left behind in the long run. People shouldn't be so eager to potentially burn bridges just for a short term money fix. | ||

No one knows. Clearly the contract, if there was one, between TSL and Puma wasn't that great. If they just released him from it, it would seem like they realized their "contract" was pretty much worthless. | ||
