I'm starting to think Esports has become a monopoly between FXO and EG.

lol @ all the idiots in the "mystery announcement" thread who thought this was going to be bigger than the simple prediction that the thread started with, and that supernova and others leaked (Huk to EG). They were trying to look smart with their detective skills....people actually believed that TL and EG were going to merge LOL.

I can't see how the new training environment of Idra and Puma is going to be even close to OGS house.. money must be nice.

i wonder how much eg is gonna pay huk

close to 6 figures, rumours state


It is 6figures according to most people.

Who are these "people"?

no it's not 6 figures, the original source said "close to 6 figures" and then everyone just spread the news as 6 figures

either way, it's a huge deal for him and i can understand why he did it


who's the "original source" anyways? i don't believe it's that much money Oo

I think it is. This is the same sort of money players like Moon and Grubby got from MYM before they imploded.

Certainly a much lower amount like 40k couldn't convince huk to switch from TL to EG (and he said he was willing to sign with TL for significantly less money than any other team). It has to be an amount much closer to 100k.

Not that this wasn't unexpected, but it really sucks to see HuK leaving TL after everything they've given him. But at the same time, good luck HuK and continue to kick ass in GSL!

Team EG replacing FXO's spot in GSTL would make a lot of sense, especially if FXO's 2 teams are merging for the next GSTL.


They only have 3 people in Korea. Would make more sense for them to merge with F.United for the GSTL

The reason I dislike this move (as well as the Puma debacle) is that, in my view, it doesn't help the scene at all. EG and HuK profit, and nobody else. When Liquid established the oGs-TL partnership and flew their players over to Korea, not only were they taking a risk in order to bring the scenes closer, but they were also investing in the development of their players. Honestly, Ret and Jinro weren't much before their move to the house, and now they're clearly top foreigners. HuK was a top foreigner before his move, now he's clearly #1 and a stable Code S player, possibly among the top Protosses in the world. Similarly, they're taking a Korean player without much GSL success (herO), and opening his world up by flying him over to foreigner tournaments, but without cutting him off from a proper practice environment (like EG did to Puma).

Compare EG - they sign a great player, idrA, pay him a good amount of money, he enjoys a good amount of success in the early GSLs. Then they fly him back to NA, where he slowly declines while getting trolled on the NA ladder. They sign Puma, a great player, immediately after his breakout tournament, and produce tons of drama due to their greediness. Now they're acquiring another great player, yet again right after his breakout performances, and they're planning to move him to an inferior practice environment yet again. Ultimately it's just throwing money at their team, hoping it will turn out well. But it doesn't benefit the foreign scene in any way, like Liquid's actions.

TLDR: Liquid fightan!

Huk, your play and commitment has been an inspiration to me personally since I started sc2, and I'll be a fan no matter where you go!

This is a huge loss for liquid, but a model of how good business should be conducted.

EG, Liquid, Huk fighting!!
