Could be any game and not just starcraft, but if it is I'm thinking they might make a play for Naniwa.

I hope they don't add another Korean. Don't get me wrong, there are alot of good Koreans out there and I'm not against Korean's on foriegn teams, but EG has a lot of money. The only way the lowers tier foriegn players are going to get good is if some of that money is invested their way.

It wouldn't surprise me.

Not to hate at them but players like Machine, iNcontroL or LzGamer doesn't have the results (at least recently) that match with EG's ambition to be one of the best teams in the world, or definatly one of the best outside of Korea.

Please not Thorzain. Unless they send him to the Slayers house. He is leagues above the EG lair. I think Illusion is more likely for EG.

Btw, what ever happened to the partnership with Slayers?

They really need a zerg. They have a top tier foreigner and Korean each playing Protoss(Huk, JYP) and Terran (Puma, Demuslim). They have Idra at Z so they should add another good Z and they will have a scary deep line-up.

I agree with this to an extent, but look at someone like Machine. A lower tier foreign player (don't get me wrong, he's a great guy, just no results.), been a part of EG (arguably the foreign team with the strongest support system), and still no results or considerable improvement. For EG, they are, and should be, all about growing their brand, and winning does that more than anything unfortunately.

That sounds like a pretty good guess

It won't be Naniwa guys. He loves Quantic, Sase, and the Startale house. Well he doesn't really care for Quantic, but still. And Thorzain is very proud of Mouz being the only nonKorean mercenary team out there so I don't think he would switch.
Edit: I think Illusion is a good guess.

I would really dislike it if EG would do the same they did with huk and just sign thorzain or naniwa. Foreign teams need some diversity. It would be really bad if so many top foreigners are on the same team. Even if they get more money.
