I already am.

A sellout is a sellout. Plain and simple.


If you had a chance to make serious money playing a game you love, wouldn't you take it? You cannot hate HuK for moving to a team that is willing to pay much, much more than TL can afford.

Edit: Or if you do, you are being very selfish. You think HuK should stay on TL just because you like TL more, regardless of what is better for him?



1) He is doing it for the money <-- Sellout

or

2) He prefers EG team to Liquid/oGs <-- Not worthy to be looked up to


Regardless, would be bad career path and he would lose fans.


Making more money definitly would be a bad career move.

If you are a fan then you should follow and support him whatever his decision is. Besides I don't see how it affects you personally other than he will be wearing a different jersey.

THAT part is the prove that they are just trolling us.

"iS" was never mentioned before and was just a mistake be the OP because of the TLPD stuff. This is just annoying EG, stop it.

Debate of long term vs short term semantics. Depends how long he plans on playing the game. I sure wont be near as much of a fan of HuK if he wasnt on liquid.

EG wants money. Liquid sticks to its players like super glue (TLO anyone...).

How is switching teams selling out?.

Would it be selling out if you left a job as a low level lawyer to get a higher level job at another company that pays more

If HuK does leave Liquid for EG be it for money or to live in a practice house in the states then he is not selling out he is switching teams.

SC2 is Huk's career if he wants to move to EG for money reasons then it is a career move not him selling out.


100% agree. God forbid a pro gaming team actually pay players a competitive salary. That must be terrible for e-sports.

Not hating on TL, but seriously think about it from HuK's shoes. If I had to choose between losing some fans, and gaining a huge salary increase, I know what I would choose, and I know what 90% of the people hating on this move would choose.


The only reason he's actually in Code S is because he's on TL. I understand wanting to switch for money, but if the entire announcement is that huk is switching to EG, being booted from the oGs house and moving into an apartment on his own, I doubt it will benefit his SC2 results at all.

Short term monetary gains in exchange for joining a mediocre team with no korean infrastructure that, in the long term, will result in him just becoming someone with idra-like results. Why exactly is it unfair to critizise him for that?

Why the iS at the end of the EG tweet? We already established that was because of TLPD. Anyone else thinks EG is reading all of this and trying to feed the hype even more? :>

Edit: I am also a slow typer it seems :p

A sellout is a sellout. Plain and simple.


A professional gamer moving to a new team once his contract is up is not "selling out".

The term "sellout" is used for artists who sacrifice their artistic integrity in order to appeal to larger audiences.

Using it in this context is absolutely juvenile. And by "juvenile", I mean that you appear to be about 12 years old, and treat Team Liquid as some sort of league of superheroes, instead of the professional gaming team that it is.

Finally someone who understands, getting so tired of all these whiny bitches.
no dude, the question

EG absolutely killed this. The amount of hype they generated for this announcement, whatever it may be, is insane.
