Its an emotional time for Liquid as they lose one of their own but from reading all the articles and quotes it was done with respect for both teams and ultimately HuK's decision was put above all. I don't see how anyone should hold anything against him for his decision. He is a tremendous player and no matter what team he is on we will always remember Liquid'HuK. HuK Fighting!

This is the way of professional sports. It's how it goes. Huk needs to be thinking about his finances and career, and...It's how it goes. Best of luck to him. I hope he continues to grow and continues to provide us with awesome, entertaining play. I still think Liquid has a strong lineup, and hopefully this will motivate players on both Liquid and EG to play at their best.

You guys know wat sux more:.. remember when Huk white-knoghted for Kelly inspite of the EG guys being so scummy about her. He was the one who called them out for talkin shit.
Sigh Huk. The apple has fallen far from the tree.....


Is he his own son then?

In case you didnt get it... the analogy is that he is one of Liquids sons... Where he truly realised his potential.... zzzzz -_-


Uh.. so you start by talking about how Huk defended Kelly into "The apple has fallen far from the tree", and we're suppose to get that you mean that Liquid had him realize his true potential.

I get it but your post was confusing because you decided to switch topics without actually mentioning the new topic.

This is way different. It is super easy to find salaries for professional sports players. We want e-sports to be taken seriously as a sport so why should this be any different?

Also if this really is a 6 digit number pretty stupid by EG imo. If you were going to spend that much money you should have just bought IM.

so, a working guy's contract is over, and he goes to another place to work, for much more money and possibilities. hunderds of people, who never met him personally, don't have anything to do with his prevorius work team, ther only assiciated with this whole matter through an internet forum platform, are angry about this.

wow never would've thought the average forum posters are so rational and smart

If every manager had the same manner/etiquette as teamliquid staff, e-sports would be in a much better place. No doubt Nazgul was upset about all of this, but he understood business was business and let the negotiations unfold, even having Huk stay at his home. Can't say I am surprised by this, given how liquid managers/players always conduct themselves.

For me, idra going back to Korea is probably the most hype-worthy for me. Will he get back to Code S? Will we get more Korean/Idra drama? Perhaps Idra is going to get a Code A spot from his MLG finishes. This means (if he practices enough) he can reach the up and downs this season, and we could possibly have a Idra vs MC battling for a spot in Code S.

Less hype-worthy is the whole HuK transfer. Everything about HuK is just going to stay the same, he's still in korea, still practicing with the same people. All that's changed is the banner beside his name, and he won't be able to appear in oGs-TL matches anymore.

I wonder if EG is going to participate in GSTL. You just need to field 4 players, and they already have 3 stars. Buy out jjakji, DongRaeGu, and PuZzle for one more of each race (all from low-tier teams) and you have a solid lineup. Recruit sAviOr as coach and you will have a powerhouse.

If they don't participate, perhaps HuK could re-unite with his oGs pals through the foreigner mercenary program. I hope this happens, as a way so HuK can stay in close touch with his old friends.

Very sad to see Huk leave Liquid just as he is fulfilling his potential.

My concerns:

-Huk is leaving behind the practice partners that made him great.
-EG may be more concerned about international tournies than the GSL.

But really, let's say Huk has to move to the Gom house - the level of practice he gets will immediately drop to sub-Code B levels.
If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe.

Only the best of luck to you HuK! But no matter what team you play for, your still a Liquid in my eyes.

EG should just buy another Korean.

Kidding aside, maybe they can play for F.United?
