You have no idea about how they do business. Everything you know comes from TL posters who are as clueless as you are.

Guys.... why are you ALL automatically thinking that first audio clip is neccesarily about Huk? There are total of three players who are in part of those clips; QXC, HasuObs, and Huk. And quiet frankly, QXC is only player who gets actually mentioned in the audio clip. Though Huk is in both games and winning also but still Huk is not only player there....

If Huks contract with liquid team is expiring in few days, then it kinda makes sense to assume that EG is targetting specially Huk but if QXC and hasuobs also are nearing their expiration with team contracts then why not think about those players also?


Because HasuObs and QXC are scrubs?


If scrubs can all kill IM, who is pro?


Those are Bo1's you know, even Flash loses those from time to time

So we're looking for a swodg. What the heck is a swodg now ?

There are people who like EG and people who hate EG. It is more common in TL for people to hate EG than in other communities though.


Theres a big difference between the players and the management behind EG. EG has always been more of a business rather than an e-sports organization. The management only cares for money. The players however are just the tools the organization uses to gain money. You can cheer for EG's players but dislike EG as a company in every single way. I hate how they do business, honestly, it's disgusting.

EG puts an absurdly high percentage of sponsor revenue into their players, and has a business model that works. They're a huge reason pro-gaming is what it is today. Don't be so full of hate dog

I can see HuK joining EG, but this fact alone won't make the whole annoucement, probably some gstl team ala huk+naniwa + sase + Hasuobs combo (4 horseman, Ra race = Protoss) maybe with puma, thorzain and (doubtly)idra, . Naniwa is on Dignitas and dignitas took part in trollin . '

Just having fun @ work.

They have business sense, and want to win. That's not being a disgusting business, that's just smart.

There is nothing "obvious" about Huk going to EG. Those sound clips can mean virtually anything.
