blah blah blah

First of they weren't even practicing for MLG... Now look at them they have gotten better. They aren't going to pickup 2131 Koreans to make them good. Plus these "mediocre foreigners don't demand as much money as a Korean would.


Don't mean to intrude, but what?

The boot camp was for more than just publicity. Same old story. 1-2 weeks is hardly enough time to polish one's play. Let's move onto the EG house. That's not very new either for IdrA or Machine. I said it before and I'll say it again: if you want to push these guys and make them more successful they need the right coach. You need to change the culture in the house as well.

Right now, it looks they're on a Joyride when they should be chickie running.

Actually the new house is new for Idra and Machine as its no more 3 hour practice days. They are playing 8 hours a day and the culture in the house seems to be headed in the right direction. Not sure what this "joyride" is you speak of.

The house won't really pay off for MLG Raleigh, but I do expect some improvement. The longer they are there, the better. They won both of their team league match ups so far too.

It is a new starcraft related show coming out of their team house. Don't think Mr. Radosław Knitter would bother to mention the jPlayer media plugin if it wasn't something like that.

I agree with the coach thing but afaik Machine and idrA hardly practiced in the nerd house. and on ITG Incontrol and idrA both said the bootcamp in chino wasn't that beneficial.

Yeah, I was thinking that I noticed this but I was not sure...

You have said that about 3 times in this thread. Just stop


Twice. The first time I mentioned Puma should pick the team.

Just stop. You are making yourself look like a retard with these baseless comments.


You make yourself sound like your raging. I believe you're the one that should stop and actually add to the thread instead of just insulting random people.

Totally raging. Why would i add to an already hyped thread? You are saying lets drop the whole EG.SC2 team right when they moved in to the house. Makes sense


You have the best players in the world at your disposal...and then you have a few friends that you share a couple beers with and are diamond/low masters. Who would you choose? Idk about you but I'd prefer to get the best....If you've seen what EG has done in the past...they are willing AND capable of doing it again.

Example: When they dropped their 1.6 team of Evolution, che, Steno, and sum random and picked up/stole complexity's legendary CS Roster of fRoD, Storm, Warden, Hanes.

Why wouldn't they want to pick up great players from Korea to replace their mediocre team.

First of they weren't even practicing for MLG... Now look at them they have gotten better. They aren't going to pickup 2131 Koreans to make them good. Plus these "mediocre foreigners don't demand as much money as a Korean would.


I don't know if you're in denial but I'm not sure how they've proven to us that they've gotten better. They've all (except for Idra) been middle-of-the-road players, but we'll see if next MLG's results indicate any improvement. I won't hold my breath though.

Incontrol demuslim and axslav qualified for the IEM event in china. That is pretty good for Incontrol considering he hasn't really qualified for anything great. Thats an improvement in my eyes


Not quite. They have to participate in another final qualifier tournament with 16 people to determine the two people going to IEM China.



so he qualified for a qualifier.

For them it's always "heading in the right direction", but you can never see a single step of progress in that right direction. -_-

It's just words. Coming from EG, they mean very little nowadays.

Well aware of their schedule.

I repeat, I'm still not convinced.

I don't see the same hunger in a player like Greg; he doesn't look driven and he looks content with himself.

Then again, I'm amazed he was able to go on that small tear in BW when he did, considering he's always had that defeatist attitude.

They need a real coach.

To you, perhaps. Not everyone is so full of EG hate as you.

I doubt this will be anything that interesting, but I'll wait and see.

Obviously and I'm not sure how it can even be argued that they don't need a coach. But, that's to compete at an elite level in Korea. I haven't seen anything from them that suggests the very elite level is their goal.

Dude, why are you coming in this thread just to bash eg the whole time? If you don't care about them, than just go away. If you don't like them, fine, but why always the Team and Player bashing?

Not really. Korean teams aren't the only ones with coaches in the industry.

As for your last point, it's all over EG's announcements/press releases just like the rest. They want to compete with best.
