Just because we see their logo on the shirts on MLG from time to time? I dont get it EG has teams in lots of games. Their reach is much more the just Starcraft, which makes it appealing to sponsors. | ||

 Im sure incontrol will beable to help him improve just as much as MC did honestly really dissapointing there is no way huk is going to beable to keep up his skill practicing with EG instead of OGS, unless they are having a partnership with a korean team, we will have to wait and see i guess but Idra is pretty hated amongst the korean community and evil genius's doesnt exactly have the best reputation in korea after poaching Puma, who would take them in? lolEG good job poaching huk, maybe one day you will beable to make your own talents instead of buying them. | ||

However, I am ecstatic that Idra is moving back to Korea. I always felt that him leaving would do harm to his play. Like it or not, to be the best of the best, you have to train and compete in the Korean environment. I'm a big Idra fan, and I would love to see him tearing it up again in Code S. IDRA AND HUK FIGHTING! | ||

If Huk feels EG is his best bet to make enough money to support himself past his 30s, who the FUCK are you to judge him? Players owe you absolutely nothing. He doesn't owe me nothing, that's for sure, but he does owe everything to TL for making him the player that he is right now. You sir are the typical money whore. I bet you wouldn't mind getting anal fucked for a handful of dollars | ||

Clearly a good idea for Huk as EG can provide him with a lifestyle, but it feels like it is a step backwards in training for Huk, and it just doesn't seem to me that he has the same personality or mentality of EG players  Really? I always felt the reason why HuK & IdrA hated each other was because they were so similar. It's one of those things where they couldn't even see it themselves. (And the only reason HuK never got as much hate was because he was on "Team Liquid" on a TL site.) Regardless, for me the big news is that IdrA is going back to Korea. | ||

A lot of people dont like EG because theyre a business thats makes money but what do you guys think the goal of a business is? To make money. | ||

Still wouldn't have seen this coming. And I guess he won't be playing with oGs now on sigh. While I'm not a EG fan would be nice to see one of their own players to step up their game if they are seriously going to GSTL, as otherwise it's a three man show or worse if Idra and Puma do not perform for EG. | ||

How is one team having more money than another mean they have bad Karma. It seems like sales for Ben and Jerry's and Oprah viewership is going to raise.

Add into the fact they have announced eg lair Korea And That one of the most popular players in sc2, idra, is returning to Korea, its a huge decision. Greg has already earned a code a spot from Anaheim. I bet he dropped iem to focus on Raleigh to get code s That's the only thing that makes sense to me (about dropping IEM). And this will be one of his best bets as far as MLG goes since all of the koreans except DRG and maybe trickster (if he loses in the up/down matches) are already code S. | ||
