You should also account for the fact that Koreans might not fully understand English.

Idra was the most well known forgeiner for years in Korea and you are suggesting they misunderstood Idra's team EG ? I highly doubt it, he is quite spot on with his answers in english to questions on his twitter.

Has anyone considered how this will affect the MLG relay???? They're stacking up by picking up Huk, Tyler is next! (plus EG gym sessions)

You should also account for the fact that most Asian students learn english in school to be able to reach a level of being able to atleast read it.

This is fucking depressing. While I was reading through OP who mentioned Egypt stuff I wanted to make king ansadi joke, I was smiling. Then I read rumours about HuK going to EG, then I read Heosat's "What I can say is this: it is the first item of a chain of news items. Sadly not all the items are good news. ". Now I'm sad. Is it now certain that HuK indeed goes to EG?
Is there any other reason other than money for HuK to join EG? And why the hell would EG want to buy him anyway? It would have to be pretty large sum of money (not saying it's the mentioned 6 figure) to persuade him to go to the pretty much most hated team out there and thus lose majority of his fanbase. Agreed, although Eg may have idra fan boys as fans, beyond that its a pretty hated team. And for the most part huk fan boys and idra fan boys usually dont overlap. I dont see many huk fans being very happy about this transfer. I certainly am not. Especially considering it seems like hes giving up the training environment that made him good in the first place for more money. Given the fact that most progamers in Korea seem to work very tightly together during practice, and the fact that EGPuMa is still in the TSL-house, I'd say that if HuK indeed was to transfer to EG, he'd still have the same training. There's absolutely no way an EGHuK will be allowed to sit next to MC in the oGs-TL house. Maybe temporarily, but not for an extended period.
I dont see why not, from what i get huk and MC are really good friends, i dont think MC is going to be like "well you are on a different team so i dont want to help you any more." All of the OGS house seems to really like huk so they will probably still help him out too.

Maybe the tweet is just referring to that. Maybe that's the initial part. But what about his reply? Very sad? i think if huk is just away for a while then very sad is not appropriate. Maybe that dude tricked supernova accidentally into divulging the info. Based on their twitters huk and supernova constantly troll each other so idk
And by constantly you mean? Last time he mentioned Huk was July 18th...

Reading comprehension. Just because he practices with his old team dosent mean he lives in the pro-gaming house. That was a nice try too seem smart and get the last word though

I took Spanish classes at school and couldn't read something that complex in spanish...so that doesn't mean anything.
