Pay attention people. SuperNoVa's tweet was 3 days ago, while HuK was attending the Blizzcon qualifiers.


You should also pay attention to the his other tweet when asked if he was happy about huk leaving to EG

Why the hell would SuperNoVa even know what EG is? How do you know he's not just assuming that's the name of the event that HuK travelled to? How do you know it's not just HuK sitting next to him typing for him? I hardly see how that's conclusive.



Why not he faced EG.Idra numberous of times, you think he wouldn't know Idra's team ?

You only responded to the first line of my post, but I'll look past that and say I'd be very surprised if someone were to see two random letters of a foreign language and immediately associate it with a gaming team which - be honest - has had very little presence in Korea.



It might but very unlikely with the Uproar the EG.Puma has created, conclude EGIdra with that and i highly doubt he never heared of it.
All men can see these tactics whereby I conquer, but what none can see is the strategy out of which victory is evolved.

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


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.

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


It is not the same. You learnt spanish just as a side subject.

English is taught very aggressively in Asian countries, not just as a secondary subject. it is expected that you can atleast comprehend english when you leave High School.

And before you ask how do I know, I grew up in Japan.

I am aware of this fact; perhaps the spanish class thing was a bad metaphor. My point being that we've seen in player interviews and such that many Koreans, schooling or no, don't have the best english, vigorous subject or no.


However he should be able to put 'EG' and 'Huk' together.

I went on PlayXP to read some of the comments, every Korean knows what EG is, anyone claiming otherwise is borderline retarded lmfao.

Please let this not be true, I'm going crazy GIVE US THE GOD DAMN ANNOUNCEMENT RARARARAR

And we all know supernovas english is great and that there is no way the he could have misinterpreted the question.

Yeah, I mean I know I said it may have been a misunderstanding, but really? Koreans know team EG because of Idra and Puma.


And tasteless mentioned EG in every sentence?

I'm sure SuperNoVa was tuning in daily to watch the English stream of the first two GSL Open tournaments.

Maybe.

But you also must understand that Speaking a language is alot harder than reading and understanding it. I would say alot of the Korean players would understand the questions asked them alot better if they were written on a piece of paper, so that they could look at it.

But then again, He does play SC2 Professionally, so i dont know how much he paid attention in class. lol

Anyway, what about LotR ? Huk and Whitera aren't really related to LotR and there are multiple references to it and the bible (lord).

LotR: Nazgul/Horses which is what Nazgul and the horses at the top are based on. Which indicates TL. Which is not looking good.

Then you should also know that depending on the school / student, even after studying English for six years, a lot of people wouldn't understand the word "join." Can we stop making sweeping generalizations about "Asia"? Supernova probably understood, but there's a chance he might not have -- no way to tell. The point is that saying "OMG Supernova said so it must be true" when there's a chance he misunderstood still doesn't really prove anything.

If it really is HuK going to EG, I will be pissed, they just take every good player they find, insted of becoming good semselves...

It's like "why even bother? we can just buy the good players..."

He's definitely heard of EG, I mean it's like saying a Brazilian pro football player (arguably the best in the world) has never heard of Manchester United. Pro's live and breath starcraft they will know vast amounts about everything about it.

Why would HuK leave TL for EG? If anything, TL has far more support and has brighter prospects. HuK also has friends in TL whereas IdrA dislikes him etc.

Based on some of the responses it looks like EG really succeeded with their hype train. Most people here just curious and not obsessed with one of the 3.

On the other hand, if he's actually getting six figures from EG... that's crazy. I don't think he could make that much in prize money playing with oGs-TL. So from a monetary standpoint it seems like a good decision.

You can never be sure about your future. Who knows, maybe HuK (God forbit) injures himself and can't play. In a situation like this I can't blame him for going after the immediate returns (money) over something that, even in a perfect situation, probably amounts to similar cash (not to mention the fact that he will still earn prize money on EG).

Even without an injury, he may go on a Jinro-like slump. Take advantage. I'm happy for HuK (if this is in fact the announcement).

I do not think that a merger between EG. and TLpro is reasonable. Why would they do it? Both teams have set up teamhouses, where would the synergie effects come from? I do believe, however, that a big name (non-korean) transfer (huk or white-ra, maybe both?) could be possible but I hope it is not Huk.
It does not need to be fun to be fun.
