On an amusing note:



But seriously, congratulations to everyone in every division of EG and Alliance for this amazing acquisition.
The world is better when every background has a chance.

As someone who doesn't like the contracts twitch give out which locks people into their service I'm not seeing this as a good thing. Especially with all their server and lag issues. Oh well, it's good for the players themselves I guess.

This seems weird to me.
Hopefully this will be a positive change.

Why would Twitch as a broadcaster buy and support a specific e-sports team? Instead of producers of content like ESL etc?

I'm kind of the only one who isn't optimistic about this, aren't I?

That's typical I guess.

I dont know what implications this has for anyone or any division.

So I'm just gonna assume EG is gonna buy more Dota2/LoL teams

I don't think it's about the team so much as it's about the brand. EG as a brand has produced a ton of content.

And possibly extend the curse to everybody on twitch. Actually, what if Alex Garfield is the Devil and this is his master plan to take over the world?

If Twitch had healthy competition, I would view this announcement much more positively.

That's pretty sick.

Maru and Serral are probably top 5.
