eP Welcomes Stratyk Gaming To It's Family!

Hey everyone,
After a few days of very intense negotiation I am VERY happy to announce that sTk (formerly Stratyk Gaming) are now officially a part of eP! This acquisition is huge! sTk participates in ESEA, CEVO(Professional), ESGL, nGP, SCL, SGL, LAG and other tournaments and are no stranger to the competitive starcraft 2 scene. They are currently 89-27 All-Time dating back to 2008 including their run in WarIII. The following players are joining our community:

  • chance (SC2Ranks)
  • sooch (SC2Ranks)
  • Monk (SC2Ranks)
  • VADERvii (SC2Ranks)
  • Kayce (SC2Ranks)
  • entropy (SC2Ranks)
  • Perfect (SC2Ranks) NA Top 100
  • Pride (SC2Ranks) NA Top 200
  • NadaViking (SC2Ranks) NA Top 100
  • ButteryLlama (SC2Ranks) NA Top 200
  • MattDamon (SC2Ranks) NA Top 100


We are again so very happy to be able to have these people with us and hope they stay and be able to participate and enjoy our amazing community!

I felt like making this blog post because we are so grateful to be able to be the new home for such a great team, oh, and I'm quite ecstatic myself!

err, when company A absorbs company B, it's either because Company A was more powerful, or Company B was becoming so unstable as to be easily absorbed by Company A, or both.

You ask what eP is doing to advance Stk, which is the wrong question to ask. Stk is no more -- there is no Stk to advance. It's players are now part of eP. It's what Stk's former players can do for eP that you should be inquiring about.

I laud this effort as I have been following Clan eP for a while now and think this is a great merging.

while i applaud the way you said it, its obviously not how it works.
All the players can do is play their best, it's management team efforts that make the difference.

100% agree. I wasn't attempting to go into detail on the inner dynamics of a team or clan and what makes them succeed or fail. No team can thrive without good coaching and good management. I was simply pointing out that Stratyk didn't dissolve and move its players into eP to advance Stratyk, it was doing it to make the whole greater than the sum of the parts under eP's solid leadership
