Honestly, I'm glad. There is a clear disconnect between how traditional sports leagues operate and what the Esports teams created over the last 3 years. The most obvious one is the different structures of leagues between the West/East throughout his tenure. Then there's the non mandatory contract dates in order to ease player transition and create a fairer free agency periods. Competitive rulings that had little to no reflection on the precedence set by the Esports team judgments.
He had the perfect opportunity with Korea adopting the league system to get a unified structure in place globally and completely failed in all regards with what has transpired this season. He deserved to be fired for this poorly constructed system.
