I'm pretty sure that he openly stated that he didn't give a fuck about this. He certainly didn't use those exact words, but this event is far from his focus.

Even if he'd prefer not to participate, he's obligated to do so, and EG would make sure of it. | ||

Not trying/caring and throwing games are quite different. | ||

If he wins WCS over Stephano, MC, or DRG I would, in the words of the immortal Sean "Day9" Plott, "shit fully decorated christmas trees". If you are talking about the WCS World Championship, MC and DRG did not make it. Stephano did. Huk too. | ||

If you saw the commercial for ESWC, Suppy and IdrA were featured for the media event. They don't have to bring the entire team for the media event. | ||

They don't have to bring the entire team for the media event. what i meant was, half the lineup for eswc didn't even turn up, i.e nobody gives a shit about eswc, wcs has taken over entirely the "world champion" idea, and ESWC clashes with MLG, thus no one is taking it seriously. even hawk who won probably won't attend. Idra, suppy, etc, definately wont attend if they won. | ||

You either try to win or you don't. if your throwing a game your trying to lose if your not caring your only putting up 90% of the effort to win Greg loves to win, its the only reason he plays SC2 so whenever hes in a game hes playing to win so the problem is he doesnt care about winning because theres no prestige or amount of money worthy really focusing on the game 100% | ||

There was no prize money for winning. All he would've gotten was a trip to a small tournament that he wouldn't even be able to attend. He was only there for the PAX media event. I mean the games were almost as bad as his 6p's in his showmatch against aLive. | ||
