This totally indicates that the HuK thing is a major red herring. But now I'm thinking it involves Korea!

Every foreign team hoards all possible BW progamers whose contracts are supposed to end this month?


Don't think the BW forum can handle that :p

Jeez this thread is full of TROLLS its amazing there is that many on TL.

If you think HuK is joining EG there is something wrong with you, SuperNova is
A) Trolling or B) Doesnt understand the question

Why would HuK leave TL, and Korea, and oGs house, to move in with EG in America, when not long ago at HomeStory cup he said he wanted to stay in Korea as along as possible and whilst he was in Code S i beleive, and he currently is in Code S and the best foreigner over there so i highly doubt he is going to leave all of that to join EG...lol

I have no idea what the announcement is, but im just going to wait.....If you want to guess lets ask other stupid questions to guess;

How many clouds are going to be in the sky tomorrow....

Umm ever hear of this thing called money?

Just because he joins EG doesn't mean he leaves Korea. Idra was in Korea while being on EG. Puma is on EG and lives in Korea. So yeah...



Lol....sigh....So you think HuK going to live on his own somewhere in Korea? Puma is still in Korea...Oh yeah maybe because he lives there...and can live with his Parents...Man stop being an idiot and look at what you type!!

There isnt that much Money in E-Sports at the moment to even turn HuKs head to EG, all TL blatently Hate EG as they are the biggest rivals to them as best foreinger team.

However if this rumour was about Ret, i would be more turned to the possibilit, as Ret and Idra always been close and Ret seems alot different to the other Liquid members, maybe doesnt speak out rationally all the time..i dont know...


Idra has said on State of the Game that he earns enough money on EG's salary that all his tournament winnings and stream money are just like gravy on top. He would be able to live comfortably with purely his salary alone. Also, Boxer is sponsored personally with $180,000 by intel and slayers gets an additional of $270,000. There are plenty of money to go around in E-Sports if you are at the top.

I'm not saying that Huk will receive that kind of money too (he's not boxer afterall), but given that he's arguably the best foreigner at the moment and the fact that Intel is the main sponsor of EG, it's likely Intel can offer Huk a good amount of money. If he's offered even just around 100,000 salary (just a little over half as much as boxer is getting) I can see it being hard to walk away from.

As for your first point, Huk can still live at the Gom house in korea... it's not like he'll be homeless..... dont call other ppl an idiot when you don't even know most of the facts


Every TL member has came out and said at one point that they dislike EG (well the TL members with the mouths) unlike Haypro/Ret who are the TL members who just play hard as results prove.
Ret already turned down EG when they tried a few months ago.

Ok telling me that BoxeR is sponsered by Intel and receives $100,000s is what relevance? Idra has a big salary? Relevance? He is there best player, like HuK is TL best player? Points are silly.

The GOM house has enough Beds/Computers for the people who are there. FXO people were there and had enough computers/beds. If HuK permantly moves in there that is 1 less space for someone to bought over for the GSL (what it is actually used for) At the moment Naniwa/Sase/Fenix/Thorzain are currently living there.

Every TL member has came out and said at one point that they dislike EG (well the TL members with the mouths) unlike Haypro/Ret who are the TL members who just play hard as results prove.

Facts in this thread are VERY VERY VERY VERY little....So don't even start QQn my facts

It isnt hard to rent apartment for a player in Korea, EG did it for IdrA, doing it for PuMa and probably will do it for HuK if he join.

I really doubt that Ret/Sheth dislike EG, since he is in good relationship with basically all the EG members and sirscoots...

But but my favourite team with probably my least favourite player, hmmmm. Dunno what to think ;o
yet another IdrA's #1 fan

Why would a professional organization choose to make their announcements like this? Sure it builds hype or whatever, but don't let form replace content. If the announcement is a big deal (like Huk joining EG) then it will generate hype regardless, without making the organization look like its run by people who have nothing better to do than toy with their fan base.

A scavenger hunt? Anagrams? This is just fucking stupid.

EGHuk twitter account was created

15 August 2011

EG is seems pretty strict on their twitter policy, egidra, egincontrol.

Not sure if this is evidence for or against huk's transfer.

1. Would EG/Huk have snatched up the account earlier?
2. Did some troll pick it up but hasn't done anything? (Troll would have posted something imo instead of keeping it empty.)

Holy raptorjesus,

this thread is yellowpressdeluxe2.0

As for the announcement, even, and i repeat, _even_ if its true and HuK is joining EG, well if they offered enough money, and his contract with TL was expiring, i dont see a problem.

SC2 isnt exactly like the moneymachinemaking-industry where one player can pass on offers you shouldnt refuse money-wise.


Also the whole TLPD-joke was kinda stupid. Dont know if thats the way TL wants to present its database as a serious one.

Anyway, in less than a day we all know what this whole thing is/was about.

Just be wary... this doesn't mean that Wolf actually knows anything about this. It could just mean that Wolf also has no idea what the announcement is, and is relying upon us to find out what it is before it is announced.

Okay this is basically my final thought after Wolf's little post:

I don't buy the HuK -> EG thing yet, I sure hope not.
If the Incredible Genius thing is true, minds will be blown, including mine. I honestly think this is more likely than people think.

Jaehoon, ggaemo and Reality are switching.. They will join eg and live in a traininghouse in kr with Puma and a secret last member.
We promise with a view to hope, but the reason to "accomplish" what we promised would be fear.

It's probably something underwhelming, like always when they hype something. Maybe it's an announcement of an announcement of when they will show a walk around of their house.

i'm not sure this matters too much since huks twitter is under his name rather than his nickname but a good find regardless
