Just waiting for Puma to go the way of MMA after winning one tournament. If that happens, we'll all look back and laugh at the shitstorm EG caused for themselves when they can't deal with Koreans anymore.

Best of luck to all parties, hope this was worth it.


What's with the MMA cheap shot ?

There's a number of players who haven't had much success lately, such as Mvp. The Korean scene is getting much more competitive as people that used to cheese/suck are getting to be much more rounded and formidable players.

I think Puma will be more like Select, still really good, but he will fall behind the Korean scene if he isn't able to get good practice there. Hopefully for his sake that proves wrong, but I'm still kinda ticked at EG.

Wow ok. So just because Puma wants to be able to provide for himself and takes an amazingly good opportunity, even though he talked to his coach about it before fully making the decision, he's a horrible person? This is absurd. Why would EG approach TSL and be like hey can we have one of your players? Of course that isn't going to go well, why would they even try? It's not even any of TSL's business what EG does especially since Puma was neither on a contract nor receiving a salary.

I feel sorry for TSL and I realize they would probably provide a salary if they could afford it. But it's not Puma's fault either, you have to have money to live, that's just the way it is, and Puma did this in the most respectful way he could given the circumstances, and people are just jumping all over him for it.

If I was Puma I would have done the same thing. If I was EG I would have done the same thing. If I was TSL's coach I would have completely understood why it happened, and while it would suck and make me sad, I would be understanding and support Puma's decision and just wish him well in his career instead of running a campaign to ruin his fucking image.

i don't understand why everyone is upset, sure eg could have approached management with the offer instead of the player, but to be angry at puma for going with a better offer is beyond my comprehension. I mean, this happens in every pro sport. Players follow the money and the results, why progaming would be different than any other sport is beyond me.

You just don't get it do you. We as a community have been waiting to throw eggs at EG for awhile now.

They finally do something somewhat douchey , giving us an opportunity to shame the American dirt bags and you come in here with your logical reasoning.

what a mess, and not surprised with the backlash. has EG even released an official statement yet (other than the interview on Weapon of Choice)?

I laughed at that. Both kinda work!




Well, I'm not at all surprised by the reactions. Mine are very similar to theirs.
