I don't really understand this move by EG. Grubby is probably one of the highest profile sc2 players right now...why not let go some other member? I guess I don't know all the facts.

A liquid'Grubby or a SlayerS_Grubby would make me cry tears and tears of joy, but I agree with others, this seems like an FXO kinda move.

1st of april!

i don't think EG would let go a major star with a bright future like grubby! he has skills, motivation, talent and popularity! he's a super star!

Putting all realistic considerations aside, just judging character Grubby would fit Teamliquits lineup really well, since he is - as all the tl members - a very well mannered player who stays in close contact to the community. Also, as far as I know, he never ever produced even one single piece of negative news about himself.
Grubby is a name that will represent any team very well and will also spread its polularity to a huge audience. He is such a posterboy

again, grubby good luck on finding the right team for yourself

€: plus I would wait a few days to read muuch into that. If its true he´ll have a new team by then, otherwise its not april 1st anymore.
If you are reading this you are awesome.

incontrol: "looking forward to training with you buddy"

I seen this coming TBH. EG'Starcraft II team is pretty stacked and full. If Grubby improves he could probably find a team just for the novalty of having him, SlayerSBoxeR foreigner of the WC3 scene.


Is this a joke? The only person EG has who's better than grubby is IdrA and i don't know if you've heard, but EG's SC2 team is on the downslope

It was pretty obvious, If u have been following him hes been trying to spread his name as FollowGrubby, and nothing about EG.

I guess he will try and get sponsors for his FollowGrubby project or he will join a real big team.
Maybe Wemade Fox as the former wc3 superstars Lyn and Moon.

If this isn't an April Fools, he must've been acquired by another team for quite a fee (if that happens in SC2 pro esports)

I wouldn't say Grubby is high profile in SC2. He hasn't won anything notable or even been in major tournaments as far as I'm aware.

Stop talking about TLAF`Grubby.

Clearly TLAF`sAviOr and TLAF`JohnDaly are the new additions to TL.

Neither is Boxer - in terms of PURE SC2 "Accomplishments" and or "Seen as one of the best players". It's the fact that they are basically the biggest names in their respective RTS games, so they are a celebrity, doesn't matter what game they play. Grubby has to easily be one of the most recognizable "gamers", let alone in the RTS Genre.

well he's currently 4th in the 'most anticipated moments of mlg dallas' poll beating things like 'huks NA return'. I'd say that's quite a nice indicator of his popularity considering this is a starcraft centric website.

the guy is one of the most famous cyberathletes (heh) of our generation and is recognized on a global esports levels.

Boxer made it to the semis of a GSL, that's high profile pretty much no matter what.

The fact that Grubby was building his own brand (followgrubby) outside of EG would be kind of a hint of things to come. He had started to dump EG before the contract was over.

As much as I love Boxer,he had a lucky run once, that's not an argument that holds ground. Grubby only started playing 2 months ago, so criticism aside while he get's up to par. +60% ratio on the Euro ladder with 4k+ points is nothing to scoff at, considering how long he's been playing.

Mmmm, doesn't really make sense, in any case, I can't see it being EG dropping Grubby. Perhaps he has something else planned, he always seems to enjoy going about ventures in his own manner, so we shall see.

After watching alot of his stream and his general manner towards fans and other competitors, he's just a true champion, he will succeed at anything he dedicates himself to eventually. Hopefully he will rise as one of the biggest SC2 personalities.

TL really needs to recruit Grubby. He really has what it takes to be one of the best players in the world.

I think the April's fool joke is pretty retarded. It's still 3/31 over here in US. Please think before you post something.
