why so much hate on EG? what really matter is that Huk still stays in Korea and competes in the highest level.. I hope his skill wont deteriorate after leaving Ogs house.

This can't be... possible...
Did Luke Skywalker joined the obscure force when that was appealing... ? no
Dis Huk joined the evil side... ? yes
2012 and end of the world shit are getting real, this is the first sign of ESPORTS apocalypse...
One day I'll wake up and ESPORTS will have become e-Sports.

Dear, new guy.

Did it ever occur to you that some people might have been fans of Liquid as a whole team? and not just the player HuK? For the people that have been on Liquid and followed them for years, this is a pretty big deal.

For the people who have followed Liquid for years, this shouldn't be a very HUGE ordeal as Huk is a newer member of TL, and if you love TL then you realize Huk came and left but TL is still there and just as strong with Ret and Sheth both taking Blizz-Con spots, and HerO just joining. TL looks to be in a great position with or without Huk. Just my opinion. Don't think 1 year (don't believe it was even a full year yet) should be warranting this emotional "my team is Liquid" response.

Best of luck in EG.Short career and I'm lad you're getting compensated as you should be to get the most out of your time in esports. Good luck as a person and Protoss.

I guess I am SOL with so few toss to root for these days T.T. Blargh and the grudge match with idra isnt grudy enough anymore t.t

Still don't know what to think of the player/team. Rooting for liquid was easy because they were always the "good guys." Don't hate EG and actually like a lot of what they do, but blargh dunno how I feel about supporting the yankees over my local team.

Also is it me or does Huk love other people's special others?

Edit: Carmac's post is perfect.

Amazing to see how money can change someones mind and friends. And even more astonishing how EG tries to get to the top by all aviallable means. First Puma now HuK. Gj guys. I dont see how this is healthy for the western scene but hopefully time will tell

This really sucks. Team EG buying good players from other teams is really bad for the fans and the Starcraft scene. What fun is it if all the top players are in 1 team.

Right? People act like Derek Jeter, Mariano Rivera, and Jorge Posada weren't brought up through their own organization... three guys who have been critical in the success of the Yankees over these years.

Yea, people can start the EG = Yankees comparisons when EG actually starts reigning in their players actions (big name acquisitions in NY face the heat whenever they don't perform or do something retarded), start winning some big tournies, and grow guys like Machine, Incontrol, and Axslav into top tier code a/s level players. Until then, let's stop the comparisons.

Liquid are far too nice a bunch of guys to really feel bitter about it all, and that's the reason Huk was able to leave when in fact it should've been the reason for him to stay.

...I'm confident in my decision to join EG on a business level, I worry that I will end up regretting it on a personal level...

...It really seems kind of difficult to imagine that somone like Huk will become friends with the likes of idra or incontrol...

I hate lying and fakeness,...

good luck with incontrol...
I'm sorry but Huk and EG isn't really a match (character-wise) but nonetheless good luck Huk, show idra how a real pro carries oneself

so much armchair coaching jeez, I'm sure that if any of you kids living off of your parents actually had to make a LIVING off of starcraft and were offered a raise to 6 figures (or so the rumors say) you would jump at the chance.

I'm very sad about this. Not because of any animosity towards EG because I love those guys, but because Liquid was my home team, and they just got a lot weaker. With Tyler fading from relevance, and Huk gone, Liquid is starting to look like Ret and some other guys.

Oh well, it's through change we can evolve, I guess...
Hope he gets even better than he is now
