I want to know where is the interview with Idra and why he's returning to Korea. When he left he said there was more money to be had in the west and tournaments to play.

I guess he realized that he could still fly to all the major tournies while being in korea, just like the TL guys.

WHAT!?!?! NO! D=...

I'm so disappointed =(. Why does this feel like a sellout? I thought all the rumors of EGHuK were just made up. I just thought "lol naaahhh! HuK'd never do that"

And here we are... I've never been so disappointed about anything E-Sports related before...


You're disappointed Huk is going to be making more money to play SC2?

I HATE HOW PEOPLE KEEP SAYING THIS! Cant we be upset that our hometeam favorite is leaving?! We realize hes making more money. We can still be pissed that hes leaving and we have every right to be..


Note that a lot of people are complaining that Huk is no longer a part of liquid.. not that Huk is making more money. People are allowed to dislike an event based on part of it, not all of it. For example, I came to TL originally because Liquid was my favorite team, having discovered them by chance as I got into SC2. I am sad Huk is leaving my favorite team and will no longer be wearing the blue of TL. This has nothing to do with how much money Huk makes. If his salary is anywhere near as large as hinted at I can't really blame him for going. E-sports isn't exactly a career that transitions well into anything else so the chance to get financially secure is hard to pass up. Huk has his family back home to think about too, a future wife, etc. He obviously has a lot of loyalty to Liquid but sometimes it goes beyond that.

That said I really hope Huk comes back to Liquid after his contract with EG runs its course. He's already said he's concerned he will regret the move from a personal standpoint.. Come home someday, Huk!

I can totaly understand HuK. He trains really hard. He will not be a progamer undtil he retires with 65. At least he could bank some money this way or get some financial reward for everything he sacrificed for SC2.
However I am sad that he leaves and I do not like the way EG hires people.

It's a euphemism for bags full of money! TL is too classy to divulge the exact amount, but you can bet if rumours are true it's at least double.

Um...tons of guaranteed cash and the oppurtunity to play for the one of the best pro gaming orgs of the west, one that hails from canada as well? Not to mention the oppurtunity to build a foreign team up in korea with already paid for facilities?

I'm extremely sad to see HuK leave Team Liquid. I just got my TL shirt in the mail too so I could support the team at the next MLG. It's understandable though that he has to do what is right for him by a career standard. Eventually I will move on to a different company in my career and it should be no different for HuK to do the same even if it is upsetting in some ways.

Good luck in the future though, HuK!

Go EG.HuK! Rock on!
Let us leave this place where the smoke blows black and the dark street winds and bends. Past the pits where the asphalt flowers grow, we shall walk with a walk that is measured and slow, and watch where the chalk-white arrows go,
