Taking bets on he inevitable fist-fight. Greg's been working out and seems to have more of a mean streak, so I'm putting 50 euros on Idra by second round TKO.

Oh and EG is sending Idra back to Korea? I knew they couldn't leave their new investment alone (Puma) and I have a feeling Idra was never satisfied with leaving Korea... all that talk about wanting to play with the best and be the best...

Though Huk and Idra in the same house OMG LOL. I hope Huk can get along with "disgusting things like Idra." ^___^

Nooo, not at all. Just compare the results of those two and then re-read what you wrote. LOL.


It's not always about results. It's mainly about exposure and IdrA gets a ton of it. Look at his fanclub compared to anyone elses. I wouldn't be surprised if IdrA is getting paid the same amount as HuK, if not more.

Congrats Huk!

It's interesting how the reaction to this differs from PuMa's shift; obviously the circumstances were different, but I don't think the differences were that great overall. But then I'm just one little flawed perspective myself.

It's a massive signing for EG

Stealing? Both teams throw what they had at Huk, who really deserves this after what he have accomplished.

Aren't you glad teams are stepping up and compete for the players? Its a pretty nice spot for the player I must say, to have such choices.

I was atleast thrilles cause of this, really shocked, I never thought that Huk would join forces with EG. The 3 days hyping worked for me

Can't say I understand it... Presumably its about money...

Puma's great, and a great terran. Great practice partner there.

I don't understand practicing with IdrA, supposedly they hate each other and frankly idra's not going to be on huk's level until he gets over himself and plays like he's got something to prove for an entire tournament.

EG is starting to build a very elite team... If DeMuslim is the 4th spot I wonder who is the 5th for team leagues.

Its not all about results, even a good chunk of this thread is talking about idra.

Idra having Huk as a practice partner is a nice skill to have! His ZvP will improve =)

Anyone else think that Team Liquid willingly allowed EG to hype up this exchange for the benefit of the scene in general? If anything, it makes TL look even more awesome, as they are willing to allow fellow foreigner teams to hype up player acquisitions and overall create buzz? And again, one "steals" property, Huk is not going nowhere against his will.

Well it's also the announcement that IdrA is going back to Korea and that they're setting up a team house there. But I think noone expected a 600 page thread full of hype ><.

If liquid was signing idra, wouldn't they hype it for several days at least?

No it's the signing of a new player. Should not matter which team he is on, plus they went about it the right way (contacting Naz). Can't see how that's scumbaggy. Plus they were also hyping that and IdrA back to Korea and the EG Korea house......

It's going to be interesting to see how Idra does in GSL and if he can make it back to code S now. He still does good in NA tourneys, but it's a whole new ball game with hyped players like DRG getting knocked out so quickly after finally making it to code A. Good luck to all of them, at least idra finally has a top level protoss to practice against.

GL Huk, I think i still like you better as liquid Huk, but can't hate on a business decision, I'm sure it's harder on you than the community.

Fist-Fighting has little to nothing to do with working out.

Big mistake by Liquid imo.

Never would have expected this from Huk.

Lost a little more respect for EG, but thats just my opinion, so no one get offended over it.
