For everyone suggesting HuK is leaving korea/joining EG only for money, how do you know its only for money? Is it possible that he WANTS to move back to Canada to be with his friends/family?
Just saying that
PS: I'm not really a big huk fan at all (really im not lol), but it gets on my nerves when people immediately point to the possible greed/selfishness in a decision rather than the possible actual desire of the person that isn't money
TL has let Ret, Haypro and TLO move home from korea, do u rly think theyr forcing huk to stay?

Anarchy-A standing for aAa.nerchio?
i know it doesnt make sense, just spreading baseless rumors around as everyone else here :D

People say you can move your clock forward and it opens the audio's (which are not yet uploaded anyway, thus unplayable). Since im in australia and my countdown is at 17:37 remaining, and there is still only 1 audio available, does that mean that we wont be getting another audio clip for at least 17 hours considering the 'real' countdown still has over 1day 10hours remaining and the second clip isnt until less than 17hours?

idra and puma are their only good players.
all of those other players get paid to play sc2 from EG

Sigh... at this point all evidence seems to indicate huk... i'm so sad Or is it planted evidence for some peoples entertainment? Is there a reason huk had so many fans in the first place? It really confuses me. 1. Probably the second best foreigner. 2. He is outspoken about what he thinks no bullshit. What? I think you've confused huk and idra, huk's results lately show him to be the best foreigner, and while he's honest, I certainly wouldn't say that first about his personality, more that he's nice, happy, joking.
I was actually talking about Naniwa being in first, but perhaps with his recent 1st's all over he is the best foreigner. His personality is what I said it is, that is why people like him. He says what he wants and does like to joke around with it, but he means it regardless.
The guy I originally quoted wanted to know why he was popular. Naniwa who was probably the best about 2 months ago still was not the most popular, but not because he was lacking skill or chessed for all his wins, but he is a rather boring individual. I was just simply claiming that personality has a much greater affect on popularity than tournament results. Take Incontrol as an example. No 1sts in anything that matters, but most including me like to watch him because he expresses his feelings, and is pretty funny.

It depends on what you mean by incompetent. They are proficient at generating viewership. They are less successful at generating tournament results.

That makes a really good point. If HuK does end up going to EG I think it will cause a massive community outrage. Mr.Bitter already said that the news may caused the interwebs to implode though.

Could refer to 4 players, Huk, White-Ra, Nerchio, have all been thrown around...

So replace Miami Heat and the Yankees with... the Knicks and the Raiders.

I wish the whole of team EG, barring Machine, would just O'Doyle Rules off a cliff.

And guys, if Huk goes to EG, it doesn't mean he has to leave Korea. They supported Idra when he was there and are supporting Puma right now. EG has always had their eye Korea.

Nah...it couldn't be. EG.HuK? lol...
IT'S JUST NOT RIGHT DAMMNIT.
Rekrul's theory could be a possibility; but I really do severely doubt HuK would leave Liquid. The only incentive I could see them offering is more money and I doubt after all this time at Liquid, all the bonds and friendships formed; and great results he's achieved for himself and Liquid would be disregarded for money.

I think some of you guys are over-analyzing this...I'm not gonna freak out or anything until I actually hear the announcement.
