This is great for HuK. My only regret is that, there's a certain money cycle here - TL doesn't have enough money to hang on to a player once they get as good as HuK, but without players as good as HuK on their team posting results, how are they to get more money? This is true not only for TL but most great SC2 teams that train talented players.

Hopefully in a few years there will be more sponsors and money that many many teams will be able to bid up top tier players and retain their homegrown stars.
Pick a job, and become the person who does it.

All that hype to announce they stole another top player?

Does this scream dick move to anyone else??? I mean it's like "Yeah were building up all this hype so everyone sees at once we have more money than liquid does!"


I agree. We have seen a lot of player transfer posts in the last months. However EG feels they should hype the fact they could out-pay TL and make a public spectacle about buying out another teams members. It is absolutely a dick move and nothing else. It CAN'T be anything else since all they needed to do was make this single post and be done with it. That wasn't enough though.


Stole lol? Buying something is not Stealing.

They payed what his worth, you dont think his worth alot?

Noooo. This is the first time I've been legitimately sad about something that happened in ESPORTS. Liquid wont be the same.

This is just so sad.

I understand that if the contract is that much better at EG then you have to do what you have to do, I just hope for your sake it's worth what you'll be giving up.

Life-changing decision or not, there's not a single player in EG that I support and this doesn't change anything. Jokes, EG.DeMusliM too cool but what a shame he joined EG. The same EG that throws money around as if it was Man City or Real Madrid. The same EG that disrepects other teams and let their targets do the negotiating behind the backs of their managers.

A team of hype, arrogance, inability and lacking everything else especially class.


I agree with this. EG just showing that they have more money than TL /yawn. Why don't they try investing that money into the players they currently have instead of poaching others.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I will always like HuK, but I will never be a fan of EG. They never develop their own talent, they just poach it. Meh...

I now see EG as the New York Yankess of the Esports world. They just buy away your favourite teams' best players. I cant blame HuK, noone should, for taking a life changing amount of money.

It just kinda sucks, and makes me regard EG with a significant amount of distaste.

gogo HuK!

Im assuming he needs time to spend at home before leaving.

This is very odd though that EG has a team house in AZ and a facility in the works in Korea. I guess they intend to move their players back and forth enough (by players I mean their big 3, Idra, Puma, Huk)

heh for EG to make a "life changing offer" they must have shelled out some big checks... kind of a dick move to hype up the transfer though, even if it is exciting news for them I believe most of TL is grieving atm.

somehow I just can't understand how it's going to work if IdrA and HuK can't stand each other
