Everyone speculates off each of the clues in isolation...but I wonder if whoever came up with this puzzle was smart enough to have a cohesive storyline behind everything.
My random thoughts:
- won't be signing a sc2 korean because all of this crap saying "if you see it, you won't believe it", and the fact that koreans are being signed left and right
- wont be HuK joining EG because having those clips from HuK games (first recording?) is so obvious, I feel like its a red herring
Supporting a BW player being signed to EG:
- idra tweeting "it was fun", which sounds to me that he is playfully alluding that a BW pro will come and rip apart SC2 ushering the new age of much better players
- fufillls the need of the announcement to be "unbelievable" if the BW player is sufficiently popular and could create the community drama that people have predicted
- 4th audioclip suggests a big name signing from the 'underground' but I think signing a BW pro would give the same idea
Supporting EG.Yellow
--- "The face of the light" = sun = yellow
--- "One more game, just one more game" = he retired, starcraft 2 is his one more game
--- "Two face, two face, two face" = because joining a foreign team?
--- "I will not GG..." - no idea
--- "For the fans" - yellow was a fan favourite
--- "This is not A" - this is not Project A?
--- "pick up a slayer or two" - some speculated that yellow would join slayers
I actually lost faith in this theory as I was writing it.. lol.
I think it has to be atleast two signings because there were many references to it being a pair or more. EG. Boxer and EG.Yellow!

I feel like the "one more game" explanation is just not... good at all. Same thing with the next 3. You're just stretching it to fit your theory. Nothing against you, but I don't see this as "figured out" at out.
Idra tweeted "it was fun" probably talking about messing with people who are trying to figure it out. I.E. the video about banjo//haypro.
