I'd love to jump on the bandwagon and blame EG for stealing a player, but unless we know all the specifics, you can't say anything about it.

For example, EG could have approached Puma only to ask him whether he might be interested in joining EG at all, before approaching the team managers of TSL. Of course after that TSL will not be happy for losing their ace in the follow-up procedure...

But hey, this is a young and unregulated scene, stuff like this will happen... It happens in professional soccer all the time in Europe.

How does this ruin his whole career? He will do great in foreign tournaments and EG players get a good salary afaik

His practice partners will suck ass?


Why are you so anti-EG? PumA is already good and EG has decent players.


EG is good? How come? The only guy that is getting results is Idra. Demuslim, Incotrol, Machine, Axslav are average right now at MAXIMUM.



Just because they dont do well in tournaments doesnt mean they're BAD. Demuslim and Axslav are pretty good.

Now what I wonder most is, if they will pay Puma an appropriate salary or tricked him as there is a good chance Puma isn't aware about how high a salary he could get in a major western team.

EG picked him. Money talks I suppose.

disappointed tbh but I can't really blame puma at all. Dunno what his salary from EG is but getting money to go to foreign events is definitely an incentive for any good korean (Who would place high consistently)

I hope people appreciate the way FXO operates, especially after seeing these shaddy moves by EG and SK.
Yea ... The way Koreans do things is totally different to the Western way. Koreans are based on Loyalty, Honour, respect. If you want to negotiate for a team's player, then you go talk to the team and strike a deal with the manager/head coach. Going "under the table" so to speak, is a great offence to Koreans/Japs/Chinese/ any oriental country in the Sinosphere. So props to FXO for their integrity.

That said - if EG are paying him well, then well done EG! I want to see players get rewarded for all their hard work

TSL is for sure breaking up. The only good player they have left is Killer, and he's nothing special. Holy balls though, IdrA will now be practicing partners with EGPuma.

That exactly mean that they are bad.

Ladder is just practice.

Tournaments determine if the player is good or not.

It's strange. Korean teams have all the talent, but Western teams have all the money.
