Accomplishment and money are closely related, win more, and you get more money. Very rarely do you trade one for the other. You either get both, or you have trouble getting either one | ||

i should clarify. TL works hard to develop players, trying to make them improve and better. results simply follow suit after the hard work | ||

Every single one of their players has been an absolute beast at one time or another, or entered the team as an incredible personality in eSports that of course any team would pick up. IdrA is one of the most successful foreigners in history, Incontrol (not going to try and do the capitalization right) was very consistently high placed in early MLGs, etc., and is captain of the team (the captain is often not the best player, or even a middle of the pack player on a team, but the best leader as in this case). HuK had his time of foreign dominance, Puma too, JaeDong is raping face right now in Proleague and individual tournaments, etc. etc. etc. Let's not even get into Stephano. All I will say about that is that he is the best foreigner ever in terms of results. Period. Just by results, it is objectively true. Moreover, what about Suppy and Xenocider? They picked them up as complete unknowns. Now, Suppy is doing really well internationally and Xenocider has yet to be on the team for more than a month so there's not much to say about him other than the fact that EG does NOT just pick up personalities. Oz, aLive, JYP, Revival, and ThorZain continue to do very well for themselves in Proleague and otherwise, and none of them were or are huge personalities when EG picked them up and kept them. They are simply very solid players. I'm not a huge fan of EG, but to say they don't push for results is bullshit. Sure, they release a lot of media and one or two of their players are mostly focused on that media, but that doesn't mean results don't come number one. The fact that they just opened up a media production house and team house separately in San Fran evidences this. Incontrol and the managers will stay in the media house mostly from what he's said, and the rest of EG while in the States will practice in the team house. The money-making part of EG (the smaller part by far, especially when it concerns their players under contract) allows the competitive part to perform and go to tournaments, and also they allow the rest of the team to aquire and keep players with good salary. Ain't shit wrong with that. | ||

Ain't shit wrong with that. i dont even read your super long post making this reply im just trying to decipher the original poster what he's meant by "accomplishment > money" anyway most EG player got caught in EG's curse, maybe thats what he means only stephano retains his champion status, but even he was declining after joining EG he never won any 1st place aside WCS Europe after joins EG (Lone Star Clash is not premier, so i dunno what u think about it) http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Stephano comparing result in top 3 minimal at 2013 3rd place : HSCVII - TLO 2nd place : HSCVII - Snute 1st Place : HSCVII - Taeja, WCSAM - HerO 3rd place : - 2nd place : Dreamhack Summer - Jaedong, WCS AM - Revival, WCS EU - Stephano 1st place : - EG has more players, more koreans, better foreigners but less result im not getting into 2012 yet (most stephano's throphy is during his stint at millenium) | ||
