Last night, the former hero for WE.A’s successful promotion, now M3’s substitute Jungler, DreamS, released a statement on Weibo attacking Team WE. Here is the picture from his Weibo.
(Translation: Really touching from WE. I played solo queue despite having a 39 degrees fever. But SmLz still wants to open the air conditioner. Opens it every time I close it. If I argue with one of the staffs I get pushed away by the manager. No salary being paid. Not allowed to play competitively, forced AFK for more than a year. Slowly realized that I spent two years for a lesson. Really wants to thank WE for letting a kid who doesn’t know anything learning such a important life lesson. Perfect.)

(Manager: Come take your stuff and go home
DreamS: Hm.
Manager: Before the 5th, pack all your stuff.
DreamS: I will leave when my fever goes down.
Manager: Before the 5th, go to the hospital for some saline drips
DreamS: I can’t go, I can’t get up.)
On the other side, WE’s CEO Smallorc, responded by accusing DreamS on Weibo for trying to take the initiative in blaming despite being guilty. He also expressed that he won’t further respond to this incident. Image below:
(Translation in order of posting:
It doesn’t matter how wrong I am, how wrong the management is, or how much competency they lack, I will accept criticism and try my best to fix them. But today’s incident with DreamS, I felt that I was not wrong at all. You are sick, everyone advise you to rest, you don’t; other people are hot, wants to open the AC, you don’t. Lastly, you insult my SmLz and smashed my AC. In any case, go home and think about it. You said you want to meet me on Weibo, I don’t.
I knew that you were sick so I told you that you only have to leave before the 5th. You told me that you won’t get better until the 5th and refuse to leave. I let you go take some saline drips and you refuse. I said if you don’t leave, then I have no choice but to stop paying your salary. Post the entire picture, don’t just let other people think that I never paid your salary.
You don’t have to play promotions, play against strong teams, get up for scrims, or do anything. If you switch clubs you won’t get penalized and suspended. Is it because that today I didn’t say sorry uncle DreamS, I hope the AC didn’t hurt you when it got smashed? Maybe you should go home and take a rest for a few days since the AC is a bit cold? It’s more humane if I do this. I used to be worried that I won’t have players to compete. Just moved in.
Sorry for this, I won’t post anymore on Weibo regarding this incident. I also won’t release more information of staff members being blackmailed/threatened in the future.)
Honestly, this AC smashing incident was only the last straw. This incident didn’t result from just one or two days of argument. Facing poor results previously, WE faces big challenges ahead. Maybe after WE’s new Jungler WuShuang joining, maybe this rookie can help reshape WE, WEF, and M3.
