Is this all speculation that he is actually going to EG? Or is there actual proof that Stephano is looking to sign?

I have no idea why ppl don't like EG. They are like the premier e-sports team together with Team Liquid.. If you hate EG or Team Liquid it basically means that you hate the growing of e-sports outside of korea.

Anyways, I hope Stephano joins a team where he's happy!

Maybe because people dont like USA, and EG represent all American sins, greed, money, pretension, selfish ...

And Team Liquid is from Holland, prupose a community site, keep them players, and pick players from other team with elegance...

If I was in a team, I wouldn't feel comfortable carrying the team as a star player. I'm not a 100% sure that this is what is happening here but seeing as how you need to have training partners that are up to your level, I would definitely see him going to EG.

I can't see how joining EG would provide him with more training partners up to his level. You can train with people from other teams, you know. And who in EG is up to his level anyway...?

EG has only one good non Korean player (and Thorzain hasn't done much lately), TL none. I don't feel they help a lot develop the foreign scene. That, and i think EG's overall inelegance in getting players from other teams and the fact that they own one of the most polarizing figure in the scene (IdrA) mustn't help either.

For me, apart from that, i don't want Steph' to go to EG because every player EG recruited has seen decline (HuK, Thorzain) and because I know Stephano will have to shut up and stop being the rock n'roll star i have grown to love.

Edit : also the MTSL partnership is gold. Symbol/Stephano/Polt to own GSTL.

He went to the EG house after an MLG and he practiced with them. That has no indication of Stephano going to EG. Now stop talking about it until sufficient evidence comes out.

They might not be exactly on his level but can provide better trainingpartners than in Millenium: JYP, HuK, Puma, Demuslim, Thorzain and Suppy.

I think you are one of those that purely focusses on top 3 tournament players rather than bracket reach, potential and play. You can do that, but it's hard to argue with such people so I won't if that's the case.

My point was not to call EG players bad, just to insist on the fact that you don't actually need to train ONLY with your team mates.

You kinda have no reason to think this, but meh, it's hard to argue with people who assume things based on nothing.

Why would Stephano have to shut up, given what Idra routinely gets away with on EG?

Premier in what? Results? lol...Discovering hidden gems? Suppy didn't show anything yet...Improve their players skills? Lol...In what is EG a "premier e-sport team" except in dramas and funny ads from their sponsors?

Nothing.

Teamliquid is one of the premier e-sport team. Ok for that. But not EG.

I'm not an EG fan, mostly because they are everywhere.
But, if you (we ?) want "people playing video game for money" to grow, EG is one of the best thing in the current scene.
they push toward professionalism, real contract, real salary, real team house.
not everything is great about EG, but without them starcraft 2 scene in US could be 2 years behind.

I dont support any team, so EG or M or any other, WTF, go where the money is. can't care less about his team.

I just want to see him play, and if possible win some amazing game.


EG are the Yankees of eSports. It's good to see them doing so well and picking up the best players.


idk, those kespa teams man... kt rolsters team house rapes everyone elses (and flash's salary probably does too)

Stephano should go to one of those teams

I wouldn't say based on nothing seeing how you said EG players are not up to his level, but you do as you please.

Yeah, it's quite easy if Stephano gets in trouble again (which tends to happen ^^) to just exhume these tweets from the past and say : "look, he isn't just a drunk, he was an antisemitist too". That could be bad PR for ages, better avoid that. I think Quantic could deal with it though, seeing they recruited Naniwa in his worst period

Edit : Yes, it's just a joke, and everyone in this fanclub knows that. But the average TLer/redditor just looking for trouble ? He won't go past the sidebar title to claim Steph' is to be witch hunted.

See, I can see this for what it is contextually.

However, the double standards of this community are fucking ridiculous. Look at what has happened to the likes of Orb and Destiny for reasonably equivalent 'offence' in the past!

By the way I'm saying that I feel the lack of controvesy over what Stephano said is the preferable option for those of us with half a braincell. I just hate the picking and choosing over who to burn at the stake, so pathetic.

Wait, what? How has Thorzain seen a decline? He barely been playing in any tournaments under the EG name and the few he did he won one of them (WCS sweden). This EG curse is just silly. I cant believe people actually think players get worse if they join EG haha.

I also think Stephano is going to join EG simply because I don't think anyone can compete against EG ATM. I would prefer Stephano to stay in Mil, however we all knew for a long time it would be hard for Mil to keep Stephano. But don't feel bad about Mil because they are a talent factory.

They produced players like Stephano,Huk and Feast and IM sure more will come in the future. Mil will always be my favourite team because of that.

If he do indeed goes to EG ill be happy for Stephano. He will be getting one of the biggest contract in history of a pro-gamer and maybe his financial situation would be so good he could spend a lot more time in Korea and focus about GSL.
Stephano & Jaedong <-- The Pain Train. Polt and Innovation to EG plz
