I never expected Huk to leave TeamLiquid,, i don't know he will be feeling more confident going to EG with players such as IdrA, because those two are likely rivals, however,, he should know wich clan is the best one for him.

GOOD LUCK CHRIS,, GREATEST PROTOSS PLAYER EVER!!

I totally understand all sides and wish Huk the best. I will just say that Mat is an extremely close personal friend of mine and it hurts him a lot to have invested so heavily into esports with his own money (all of which he earned by starting his own company) to have something like this happen.

Mat paid for the HDH tournament during beta, going out on a complete limb to give me complete control of the tournament without anything more than a blank check. He has taken huge risks in ESPORTS and even now continues to support it to his fullest.

I love ya Mat!

Good luck Huk, I dont think anyone will hold a grudge.

Goodbye HuK. I can't help but think that this will hit him on a psychological level and his skill level will drastically decrease. From what I've heard he'll be staying in Korea with Puma, who barely speaks English and Idra, who was trashtalking about his most of the times they met. gg no re

It would be bad marketing move. Idra is more or less the face of EG.

Buying someone Better than him is just bad marketing.

Well they just did that didn't they?

Twice actually, Puma[/QUOTE]

But those players play a separate race so it isn't the same . Am I the only one who finds the outrage at EG's awesome business decisions hilarious?

Why is this immaturity so rampant?

edit: if you were even close to being a true fan you would love him not matter where he's at


Maybe he's a fan of TL and not Huk? Derp derp? Is that not allowed? Is that immature?


He said he was a big fan of him so that would lead common sense to assume he likes HuK


He hates EG more than he's a fan of Huk. Not that hard to understand. Not immature either.


Hating a team is immature. It's like hating red because he likes blue more. It's stupid arguments like this that have society at a downturn


Lol. Okay. I hate the Lakers. Most people hated the Heats. Most people hate the Yankees. Yeah, immature, okay.

And no, it's your stupid comments that calls everything you disagree with "immature" that have "society at a downturn." Some people are emotional about this. No need to insult them about their feelings.


Why? Why are people emotional about it that's what I'm trying to get it at. People are getting emotional over what shouldn't matter at all

People are emotional because that's what being a fan is all about.

So instead of throwing criticism at people over the internet, why don't you nut the fuck up and go to Cleveland and tell each Cav's fan that they shouldn't be angry about Lebron, and that "it shouldn't matter at all to them"


Because it shouldn't? It's just a sport guys come on.

I like how your warning didn't phase you. Let this argument go please - you don't get to tell people how they should feel.


alright you win I'll give up.

Good luck HuK, this must have been a really tough decision and I hope it works out for you.

It's kinda sad though - Liquid and HuK seemed to fit together really, really well.

Fail comeback spotted. As above said, have the guts to tell that to a few sports fans in their face, before coming back.

I'm sorry that you're not a "true" fan. You're nothing but a random viewer who got interested in him as in thousands other players.

I'd like to see this kind of stuff. And to be honest, I'd see more ads on TL.com - I mean, the site must get a ridiculous amount of hits. And they run a tiny little banner per page.

I like a system like what Day9 did - there's a membership and with it come a few exclusive perks. TL and others could do stuff like that where a membership gets you access to some cool content from the players, like show matches or audience participation stuff.
Pick a job, and become the person who does it.

HuK, good luck at EG! It must have been a tough decision on many levels, but in the end you should look after you own best interest first and foremost (including financial security). You and TL seemed to be a match made in heaven, but if a great opportunity comes along there is no reason to turn it down. It's always better to regret something you did, than to regret something you didn't do. Keep fighting!

TL, i feel sorry for your loss. However, IMHO you still got the strongest and most passionate foreigner team out there (players as well as staff). If you keep on going the way you did the past year, I’m sure you'll be rewarded and not have to face similar situations in the future (and even be able to "snipe" HuK back from EG in the future xD ) If I'd own a company that was interested in sponsoring an eSports team, TL would be the first in line by a huge margin. Stay strong!

I really like the way this situation was handled by all parties involved. Very professional, yet open and honest. If this is the way things are managed I see a very bright future for eSports.

(And props to the TL community for beeing so smart.)

am I the only person who is happy about this move? Can you imagine HuK and Idra practicing with each other nonstop? They will push each other so far. Or they will snap and kill each other. Entertaining either way. :D


I don't see anyone from EG providing HuK with the kind of practice that he'd get from practicing against TLO, Jinro, Ret, Haypro, Sheth, and Hero, not to mention the guys from oGs.

If I was a pro and had to pick a PvZ practice partner, I'd want Sheth on my team over Idra.

I just hope this works out for him, because if it was a decision based purely on salary, I think he's setting himself up for a lot of disappointment. Sometimes you have to forgo the larger salary to stay where you're happy and have good relationships with people. I'm worried that he's not going to find that with EG.

Well that sucks. Liquid was building such a cool team. Who knows, they might have been able to enter gstl at some point. And then this happens, and to EG of all teams.

Anyhows, does this also mean he is leaving the TL-oGs practice house? Because that would leave Puma as his only training partner...

O well, let's hope HuK does well during GSL August, because for all we know it might be the last we see of him in Korea.
