I'm just going to make the blind assumption that you have no idea what organization you are actually talking about, nor do you have any clue of the skill within the rest of the people on that team. Whatever it is that makes people think that there are stupid people involved with these types of decisions within these organizations is beyond me. I see these kinds of buy-outs and trades as growth within what is now a 10+ year sport.

liquid has their fair share of weak players too


"Weak" relatively only to the superstar performances we come to expect from a team of TL's caliber. Even haypro, who arguably has the least official tournament results, goes 2-3 in MLG groups, compared to the EG members who go 0-5. Tyler slumping? Knocks out Choya. Etc.


and then goes 0 - 5

I don't see why any of this matters

Huk is making more money, ALOT more money, period. You can wish that he stayed with TL because you would enjoy it more, but at the end of the day, you wouldn't be the one passing up on thousands and thousands of dollars

Pro-gamers don't have alot of options after their progaming career ends. If huk can start banking some serious cash now, while he's in his prime, he'd be stupid not to

Good move huk, my applause goes out to you

And to the OP, can you please TRY to hide your fanboy-ness before posting, it really helps you not look dumb

Clever tittle to use to bash on EG. HuK is a talented player, he may have lost a lot of benefits for being on TL. However Idra has done alright in Korea in the past as well as Puma. Its quite possible as well that they will attempt to recruit more players to bring to their Korean player house. I'm not a big fan of EG but the direction they are taking with this seems really promising for everyone.

Did HuK get run over by a Hummer bought by EG or something because these blog titles are depressing as fuck. If the man shows results and isn't an asshole, let him do what he wants.

Huk is a SC2 success story in my opinion. He went from being a guy getting told off for begging for donations on his stream to the highest paid SC2 player.

Whether or not EG is the right fit for him and if he will continue his growth as a player remains to be seen. I think you can be happy for Huk, sad for Liquid, and still not like EG or the way they conduct themselves, all at the same time, if that happens to be your prerogative.

Liquid today is a stronger team than they were 2-3 weeks ago, even with Huk's departure. It's not like it's all bad news for whatever team you're a fan of

people really need to stop putting the team before the player. Look, i dont care what team huk is on, i like him and will cheer for him. Same for tyler, same idra, same for TLO, same for incontrol. (note the pattern)

This rallying behind teams before players, and acting like huk is fucking dead or something is really disturbing. He is going to be wearing a different colour of blue to tournaments. 1023192301293 million dollars says at raleigh hes still going to be hanging out and joking around with his liquid friends as well as his eg friends. Its not like players dislike other players for being on a certain team, we see lots of players remain friends far beyond whos name is on their T shirt.

I'd have stayed with TL, not for TL, but because they're working with oGs. Having MC as a teammate/practice partner, or having incontrol?

Pretty sure he's now far and away the best protoss on his team and it's pretty tough to continue to improve in that situation.

True though that a progamer's career is short and he needs to make his money while he can. GL huk.

This is a misquote,

"the love of money is the root of all evil"

I personally think that we shouldnt criticize them, we should be glad that they have reached their own decisions and we should respect them
