The community hyped it up, not EG....

Putting up a 24 hours countdown is not overhyping? IT WAS JUST A PLAYER TRANSFER DUDE, They kept tweeting "clues" and stuff just to increase the hype, the community just fell for it, which is completely reasonable.

Alex's timeline of events is kind of hilarious. I guess since everyone's contract expires eventually, you can inquire about "once the contract is over" at any point during its duration.

Not just this, but EG?!¬?!?!?!?!? God sake HuK will always be a liquid *sobs*
Tyles.772 Bobstar.223 I'm just disappointed they overhyped an announcement which would obviously cause a lot of backlash in the TL community. Sure they acquired huk, but they didn't have to rub it in our faces.

Are you seriously threatening physical violence towards someone for injecting money into ESPORTS?

As for the rest, it's a nice announcement. US house + KR house, real nice.


Just look up Alex's history. He doesn't give two shits about building e-sports or fostering a community around respected players, it is only about $$ to him. No doubt it is great for Huk that he is getting more money, but I can't condone the type of underhanded business tactics that Alex has employed, and continues to employ, to get his way.


The guy is taking great care of their players, created an insane hypestorm that had tons of people freaking out and has a hand in some of the content some of us enjoy. What the fuck have you done to foster respect for this community, except threaten physical violence (lol)? What have you done to build esports? And underhanded tactics? Lol, I forgot your main form of currency are hugs and fucking unicorns.

I know machine does not like to ladder so going to Korean would be pointless.. What about the other EG players?

to be fair, EG hyped it up a ton. backwards audio clips, cryptic messages in the background. Thats a ton of hype right there.

Those cryptic messgaes wouldn't have meant a thing if we didn't bite the bait. Also, admit it, that all of us enjoyed to hype this up.....

thats the point of going to korea.. rofl, practice and besides, everyone getting upset over team EG for spending money on players.. isnt that what professional sports is about? acquiring players to better the team.. everyone on here wants this to become an ESPORT, and thats exactly how professional teams in all sports acquire better players, buy offering better deals to players, just mind boggling to think people are crying because EG spent more money lol...

So why can't people just admit he is doing this for the money?


Cause its not so black and white dude... your right that that might be one of the big reasons for his team switch, but its not JUST for the money. Instead of a cramped ogs house, he gets a roomier place with possibly a better practice environment. Dont forget that playing SC isnt a hobby for him, its his job, so the money would be better of course, but theres also a lot of opportunities that come with the bigger pay. I really can't tell if your just trolling or being ignorant -.-

EG reminds me more and more of one of those bullshit oil billionaires that buy sports teams, get all the mercenary players that are just interested in money and try to win shit. its a shame to be honest.

thought e-sports and the people involved wanted to keep serious and fair for everyone. now it turns into : buy the fame get the sponsors and laugh at the small teams .

Well, I am not enthusiastic about HuK leaving Liquid, but I have to say if EG fields a GSTL team that would be simple awesome. Foreigners in GSTL fighting!

It's kind of funny that EG just bought a training house in the States for Idra mainly and now he's off to Korea leaving the rest behind.
