Same goes for JYP, Huk and Idra. This is the hamfisted way EG buys players. | ||

Relax honey. He's doing well. Just because Puma hasn't been taking as many 1st places in foreign tourneys doesn't mean he's doing poorly. | ||

I've always loved HuK, but it's (not seriously) taken me some time to warm up to Puma, since I play Protoss and he, you know..INVENTED THE 1-1-1. Damn he played well. EG FIGHTING! Rofl, nobody knows who actually invented 1-1-1 but it's been around since Beta. Polt was the first one to regularly feature it at the highest level (GSL). | ||

And seriously, Puma has won so many tournaments or placed high at them it's just beyond me that people think his skill regressed. Even in 2012 he did pretty good. Same goes for Huk and JYP. Just take a break and take a grip on yourself. Your favorite Team didn't win. Just move on. | ||

And here we have the bitter tears starting to flow! . Since joining EG, Puma has won NASL, and IEM Cologne while taking second at Dreamhack Winter and the IEM worlds. Some regression. | ||

This is the hamfisted way EG buys players. well part of their appeal is just how popular they are. people love huk, people love idra. even if IdrA wins no tournments, as long as he stays above the milling mass of foreign players near the top, he is a return on investment... puma, in the same way, although he isnt code s, has a lot of foreign exposure, and a lot of foreign victories (NASL 1+2, at IEM one first one second) which works out well | ||

Yeah since they bought him Puma's only managed: 1st NASL S2 1st IEM Cologe 2nd IEM World Championships 2nd Dreamhack Winter 3rd Assembly Winter. Nothing much then. | ||
