That is the official reason. He was out of contract, requested to leave to pursue other opportunities, so we let him, simple as that.
I am a little disappointed that someone who has always been a great "anti-bullshit" exception to bland "correct and official statements" is insisting on this "official reason". C'mon, you know better than "other opportunities".
What's he supposed to say? Impact is not our player anymore, we can't speak for him. He told us he is looking for new opportunities, that's all we can really say. It's not our place to speak for Impact, if Impact wants to tell you what he wants to do, then he can do so.
He could, you know, tell his opinion. We all know that TB is very good at having one
Or arrange with Impact to provide a more direct answer, I don't know, just something a little less standartized. I am really saying that only because TB is one of the few people where I really expect anything better - his usual honesty and openess is really great.
Or y'know, that could actually be the reason instead of there being some bullshit conspiracy involved.
I'd like to install a program into everyones computer that reaches through the screen and slaps them everytime they open their mouth on business related subjects for SC2 that they dont know the first thing about. I think we'd have a nice forum that way.

Also that. Professionalism comes before forumusers desires for dirt.
What the fuck, man? Where the hell I was talking about some conspiracy or dirt? Why do you have to instantly have to jump on everyone's throat?
I was genuinely interested about why he left. Axiom has on of the best references as to player conditions, so I wonder what are the interesting opportunities for Impact. Are there any hints as for where are we going to see him next? I don't believe that you can't appreciate how uninformative a phrase "other opportunities" is.
I really don't understand what you want. When people don't give a shit about SC2, you complain that they are ignorant, when people are interested too much, you complain that they should shut up. Sometimes I feel like the fans of SC2 are just one big nuisance to you and you would be much happier if you could run your team and your events for zero viewers. Almost like a public transportation company (our operations are great, but the passengers keep messing us up).
You interpreted his post very different then I did.....

Another day, another forumposter getting offended over nothing.
"Other opportunities" means looking for another team. I thought that was obvious, I guess not.
You are right on one thing though, some SC2 fans are a nuisance, because they get offended over nothing and start fights with people for no apparent reason. We are in no position to speak for a player who is not on our team anymore. If you want a more indepth answer as to why he left, ask him yourself, it would be astonishingly unprofessional for us to speak for him now that we no longer manage him. We have absolutely no right to do that anymore, we are not his spokesman. If we start speaking for players that have now left our team, we will very quickly find ourselves in a position where players dont want anything to do with us.

Just drop it, when everyone but you sees it some way, there is a good chance you are wrong. You are just poisoning this thread.

Regarding a teammember, I've been curious; why isn't MMA a full Axiom player? He lives and practices in the teamhouse, doesn't he? What exactly, apart from his salary I presume, is Acer's contribution?

I'm pretty sure Acer pays to have MMA live there, so helping to pay for the teamhouse is their contribution

Acer do not pay to house MMA. We house MMA because we were grateful for when MMA housed CranK, Heart and Ryung after SlayerS disbanded and they had nowhere else to go.
Wow these are the first news I hear about Axiom's interest in joining PL, it would be great to have a strong team to actually challenge the sk duo + cj + jagw supremacy

A good move for him. Joining a Kespa team will be a massive step up in training regime, practice partners. Joining a truly professional organisation will be a real kick.
He will probably have to keep the bench warm for a few seasons but i'm sure he will be a useful practice partner for the guys seeing proleague time.
Don't really know if Axiom will pick anyone else up. Maybe an older korean player who is struggling to make it.
On the Proleague topic, it would be cool if u joined with another team, but something really sick would be an Axiom Teamhouse team. Axiom + MMA + True and Patience would be amazing.

It seems straightforward that Impact was poached and it is, of course, professional etiquette not to pre-empt a team's formal announcement. Since half of TB's life is having people who don't know what they're talking about pester him, I think it's entirely reasonable for him to be rather peeved in this matter. I have no doubt I would be as well in his position.
Incidentally, for whoever asked why MMA isn't part of Axiom, TB talked about that way back on Climbing the Ladder - MMA demanded to be paid the amount he was worth, and they could only afford that if they were to pass up on signing Alicia and Heart, and subsequently abandon their goals of joining the GSTL, which was a priority for the players.

They do. They get a salary and flights which is more than many Koreans get now.
Have you guys every considered playing in proleague?
pretty sure time and effort commitment wise it would take too much and tie their hands too much
Considering that the changes to WCS have made Korea an impossibly competitive place which has already resulted in multiple retirements, I think assuming there is another season of Proleague it is very likely that we'll be part of it, if only because there is no other way to get exposure in Korea now unless you are the best of the best (and get a good draw in Code A)
That Ryung/Dark draw though... Sad. Was hoping he'd get a TvT and show us the glorious RYUNG-tank-marine of old.
