The countdown page will just be a huge jumpscare and EG will laugh and we'll die a little inside ;_;

Wasn't Sase a free agent and looking for a new team? He might have been picked up by Team Liquid as a replacement.


lol, I like how your already assuming for sure that huk's leaving the team, AND that they have a replacement.


Its obv that Huk and maybe more TL players are leaving (Tyler maybe...)

After almost a year of no new players, TL just picked up Sheth and HerO( HerO being Huk's protoss replacement.)


oh my, hero is not huk's replacement

nazgul has stated that that he has been interested in hero for months, to the point where they would have been the first foreign team with a korean, but then things didn't happen as quickly as he would have liked

we don't even know that huk is leaving liquid, and if he is, why the hell would EG hype it? its not something that everyone would be excited about


EG is hyping it because Huk is joining EG


my point is that they wouldn't hype the fact that huk is joining EG because of the possible community backlash

read this whole thread, and you will see how many people don't want it to happen - i really don't think EG would pull something like that


All EG did is post a clock

White-Ra confirmed on stream a couple hours back that he's not joining any teams.


Why would he announce it to the stream before the actual announcement came out if that was the case. Of course he would deny it. I don't think it is White-Ra though.


He would just ignore it at worst.

White-Ra would never straight up lie about it.

If it isn't white-ra then that special tactics mp3 is a dumb clue.

Then again this whole PR stunt is trolling from EG anyway so whatever.

The more you think about this the more it just seems like an elaborate troll. Perhaps EG have acquired IM? That makes (kind of) sense, but I highly doubt they would announce like this their acquisition of Huk, while I'm sure they don't mind being the bad guys I'm also pretty sure they don't want to be total dicks, it's not great for PR and so sponsorships. TL also seems to be involved in helping this one out, I doubt they would help EG promote the fact they stole their best player.

If White-Ra had turned to the dark and very intelligent side he might.

Btw, it should be noted, this was obviously well planned. That means there's something really big going down. Alex wouldn't approve this much work (and community tumult) just for a player transfer. There's something semi-big going on.

Decrypted:

"the rivalry between the two
mostly unknown
liquid pro
egypt was once his home"




The password was "dawn"

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM


Rivalry between HuK and idra was known though..hm.

And more white ra references


A list of players for the tournament.
The rivalry between the two = IdrA
mostly unknown = some lesser known pro... Nerchio?
liquid pro = HuK?
egypt was once his home = WhiteRa?

Idra counted Ret as his biggest BW rival, along with Nony, and still respects him a lot as an opponent, yes?

i thought idras rival is complexities cruncher ;-)


CrunCher's real name is "Abdulaziz Abed" - does anyone know if he is from egypt?


He was born in the US.


his Father is Kuwaiti

The only REAL evidence we have for HuK to EG is a tweet by supernova. Now his English isn't great, and his original tweet as well as his reply could have easily been misinterpreted. Not to mention, he could have misinterpreted the question himself.

Also, EG is more than just their SC2 team, they have a counterstrike team, a TF2 team, a LoL team, a HoN team, and a WoW team. Do we have any confirmation the announcement is not for one of these?

That is not "real evidence".

Well who can hack their way into that "Code" that Karumi put up? I just want to see what the contents say even if he is a troll...because he would get troll of the century award in my book.

In an attempt to clean up their image, EG is paying a large lump sum to every player Idra has ever BMed in a tournament...starting, of course, with his arch-rival Huk.

And stay tuned for the NEXT super-mega secret announcement: Idra is contractually forced to write a blog-post explaining in detail why Cruncher is the most brilliant, nicest player ever and he loves him sooo much!

And after that: Idra explains why Zerg is overpowered!

And after that, following a suitably dramatic and fun-filled set of announcements... + Show Spoiler +
EG will change their name to Philanthropic Geniuses, heralding a new era of nice-ness in ESPORTS
Hooray!

The audio files on the page both pertain to SC2.

Question: who did White-Ra pull the "special tactics" against in the first place?
