Puma's only going to get worse. The only good training partner he'll have will be IdrA. He won't get better playing InControl every week. Probably a good decision overall though, EG is probably throwing a bag of money at him and will fly him out to foreign tournaments.

this doesn't seem very proper, but the information is still rather limited

If I was TSL, I would be pissed, too. He was their best player and he was being groomed as their ace. I guess EG through a bucket of money at him. Hopefully he doesn't regress in talent. At least Puma knows Idra from Estro.



Wasn't IdrA CJ and Tyler was Estro?


IdrA started out in Estro.


As great as it is when a Korean joins a foreign team, it's alarming when only one is recruited. Language barrier might be an issue and I'm not sure if EG has comparable practice partners to the ones in TSL.

IdrA was on eSTRO at first aswell, before he went over to CJ.

I feel bad for TSL.. EG is in the wrong here. And just because their team is on a tilt, they can't take other teams players :o. Mind you I have no clue what the context of the discussion was

Nice for EG. I don't see why everyone is so mad. Lots of people are leaving TSL recently, why should EG get blamed? We hardly know the whole story here.
It's spelled LOSE not LOOSE.

I guess this is what JP was alluding to on SotG last night about EG being like the Yankees of SC2

sigh, didn't EG do exactly the same thing just after the CGS folded and coL's CS roster was just taken away from them, without even negotiation to the team owner (jlake)?

ESPORTS ethics =/



Lol and wasn't it sirscoots talking about fnatic and sk contract ethics on LO3 like maybe at most a couple months ago? nice.

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?

Because they can actually pay him? Did people expect teams like Complexity, EG, and Fnatic to not eventually start signing Koreans? Foreigners better step their game up or they will be out of jobs.
