Source: -



Reason:



Mainly regarding Jaedong's strong desire to remain in Hwaseung Oz, as well as issues with Jaedong's salary.



One team who was not mentioned in the article said that "even until right before the end of the deadline, (they) strongly considered bringing in Jaedong, but gave up in the end because Jaedong consistently expressed his strong desire to remain in Hwaseung."



Another team mentioned that the main issue was Jaedong's salary. They said that it would be better to use the money for more areas instead of just on one player.



Jaedong now has two options: 1) to retire or 2) to give up his contract, become a semi-pro and wait for another year until the new FA season starts.



Hwaseung says they will reveal the final details on the 26th.



Update

Jaedong to get more time to negotiate with Hwaseung from the 28th to the 31st.



- Final decision seems to be in the hands of Jaedong's parents

- Jaedong's dad said that if negotiations fail, Jaedong will probably retire and go to the US to study

- But Jaedong given more time (28th to 31st) to negotiate further with Hwaseung

- Hwaseung team shows no desire to let Jaedong retire

What about Shine, Midas and Hyun?

Source: -







It is revealed that for them (all three whom nobody signed a contract with them), they have the final option of choosing to negotiate with their original teams (KT, SKT1 and MBC respectively) from the 28th to 31st for a re-contract, retaining their progamer status. Or else, they will be forced to become semi-pros and wait til the next season of FA.



All three teams revealed that they will negotiate further with the players, but no specific details can be mentioned at the moment.



Netizens rage over FA

E-Sports, let's protect it with our own hands once again.

E-Sports for 10 years. Is the association (KeSPA) still just a kid?

If the players can't stand up for themselves, we will stand up for them.

JUST SAY NO - Just say what is the fact.

When a place that should exist doesn't exist - we want to watch true professional sports.



A rather renowned site called 'The Eyes watching over E-Sports' (http://eznoon.tistory.com) community decided to protest against the FA issue.



They revealed 5 points that were going against the core principles of Free Agency.



1) Players do not have the freedom of choice over their career.



2) It was more like a slavery contract.



3) Imposed an unfair negotiation field/table on the players.



4) The players' annual salary is confidential.



5) The intial stages are untimely, but there aren't any protective measures or punishments that could be dealt out appropriately. (Might be worded better)



So they are saying there will be 3 courses of action; 1) that they will seek legal methods to resolve this issue, 2) asking for a quick change in the FA deals and asking for a meeting with those involved with the FA deal or 3) they will announce all the problems with the FA and related issues to the entire country.



There are lots of legal terms and stuff here so I may have made a mistake here or there, but this is the rough gist of it.
