SK acquires ViOlet

SK Gaming acquires the Korean orc player ViOlet to bolster it's squad.

flag flag ViOlet, who just joined fnatic on August 29th for a two day journey now seems to be linked with another clan, again.

After he announced his return to his former employer the chinese team, eXpertise, he has now joined the ESL team of SK Gaming. As SK Gaming's WarCraft 3 team has been rumoured to be dropped by the end of the year the possible addition of ViOlet now gives new issues to discuss.

There has not been a statement from SK Gaming so far, and while we're trying to get a statement or an interview from the manager of eXpoertise our sources confirm that there's been a signed contract with viOlet and that they will contest SK's decision to add him.

In a talk with eXpertise's team manager Jacob 'Dooki' Draper we were able to disclose the following issues:

fnatic: Hey Dooki, how do you tihnk about the stuff that is recently going on with ViOlet. After his short stay at fnatic it now seems like he joined SK. How do you think about it?
Jacob "Dooki" Draper: Hi, well obviously it's pretty too much drama about it all, maybe he should just play.

fnatic: Well it is said that you signed a special contract with him that should usually prevent those situations.
Jacob "Dooki" Draper: Ye, that's true. We just received the contract he signed round about two or three days ago.

fnatic: But still those things are going on. Do you think he did not learn from his stay at fnatic?
Jacob "Dooki" Draper: I don't think so. To me it seems as if he didn't learn from it. He just hasn't realiced how this makes him look like. It's hard to respect someone who doesn't respect the teams he joins.

fnatic: Is he still a welcomed part of the team after all this trouble?
Jacob "Dooki" Draper: I don't think you can say we don't want him back but he definately needs to prove his loyalty to the players if he stays. Furthermore we will have to find out, whether he still fits to our activly playing roster.

fnatic: So ViOlet will have to face the consequences of his action?
Jacob "Dooki" Draper: I think we will have dificulties in finding a place for him in the line up if he stays. I also think, that his action pretty much hurt his image in the scene. Even if he ends up at SK it will look like he's a progamer who doesn't know where he belongs.

fnatic: Did ViOlet damage the image of eXpertise in the scene, too?
Jacob "Dooki" Draper: I hope not, but I think people are making assumptions that we aren't a serious team or full of false promises. Everything ViOlet has asked for and we promised him as been delivered without a second thought. So it hurts me when people say eXpertise isn't honoring ViOlets requests.


fnatic: Thank you for your time.
Jacob "Dooki" Draper: You're welcome.

A contract is a contract, eXpertise should stick by their guns and hold onto the lad. Perhaps teach him some manners whilst they're at it.

he is really destroying any reputation he has left. actually glad he moved on Noname, sooner or later he would of caused a lot of drama in the fnatic team.

This should really become a matter of the G7, would be interesting to hear whether SK already was interested in him before he left fnatic.

violet seems to change his mind "quite" often...im really looking forward to the "violet leaves sk after just 3 days and joins mym" news =)

Perhaps there is more going on than violet simply deciding to leave teams. The story seems to be very one sided at the moment, perhaps if we knew violet's side.

It's like a 16 year old girl, seems to just crave attention no matter the cost xD

I highly doubt he craves attention considering he can't read any of these articles and has been asleep for the majority of the time these have been up.

What about Fnatic, how is it possible someone leaves instandly? I expect there was a signed contract of him in your office before you announce this?
