hmm weird that Tyler is not mentioned nor was he qouted at all in the first post except for in HuK's letter. What's up with that? Tyler no longer in Liquid?

did you read the article? Tyler was the first player he mentioned!

Wow Destiny was talking about this on stream didn't think it was real, might be some controversy in the EG house.

Honestly, I just hope EG knows what they're doing. When they signed puma, my biggest worry was that they would take a tremendously promising player and destroy him by sucking him out of the environment in which he bloomed. Same deal here; how good can HuK stay without MC/Inca/Nada/Zenio around?

But it looks like they're seriously trying to build a world-class team in Korea. I wouldn't be surprised to see a couple more signings.

Also it's... a really sad wake-up call, I guess... that the best foreigner team by a significant margin doesn't seem to have the money to hold their players against some of these other companies.

Best of Luck Huk it's these type of things that stir up the sport and make me love the being an avid star craft 2 viewer. I wish so many good things for you and your new team mates.

wow this is really touching how something that in most other professional sports would be considered traitorous is here just a bunch of friends saying that no matter where you go everyone will be friends with everyone. THIS is the reason i love esports, everyone has a handle but most players respect the person behind the handle. I hope that HuK still streams on TL because i don't think i'll go to EG's page

This comment made me lose all bitterness toward HuK's decision.
Instead, this is the approach I will take, thank-you Milkis. You've brightened my day.

Ugh, I'm so disgusted listening to Inside the Game right now, with Idra and Incontrol talking with DJ Wheat about the negative reaction. They are totally missing the point: It's not about you! Sure, people have issues with EG, but we REALLY LOVE TEAM LIQUID!!! Imagine that the Red Sox had a superstar ballplayer, and he got bought away by the Yankees, and that most of the baseball community was centered around Boston. You get why people would be upset, right???

Team Liquid is the rock upon which this entire community was built, since way back in the days of Brood War. To have big money come in and buy our biggest talent---that's what people are upset about.

Best of luck, Huk! I've always enjoyed watching you play. I"ll never forget the halucinated void rays that made idra rage quit! I have more respect for EG now, given Huk's history with Idra... <shrug>

What ... ? Nooooooooooooo .....

This will be like Luis Figo signing Real Madrid from Barcelona in SC2-sports, a player signing to his team biggest rival.

I'm not a huge fan of Liquid, but somehow reading all of this make me sad, I literally have a tear in my eyes reading the article. HuK is one of the player that I respect the most.

Anyway, good luck for both HuK and Liquid in the future. It seems that Liquid has a bright future with Sheth and Hero acquisition. On the other hand HuK joining EG is make a lot of sense, not only for the money I believe, but with having team house in NA will obviously attractive temptation for HuK.
