so only these three EG members are training in Korea? i'm guessing that they will either send the other players or pick up new players they would support in Korea, too. it seems odd to me right now.

Players making more money is ALWAYS a good thing. This is a great day for esports...even if the vast majority of people won't notice it.

What about the EG USA pro-house? EG's best 3 players are in Korea....

Yea I don't really understand EG at all. They make this "pro-house" and move all their player there then a little while later they decide no let's move our top(Demuslim going?) players to Korea. What exactly was the point of the "pro-house" in America? Let alone all this hype for a simple player transfer.

OH THE IRONY... LOL

On a serious note I am very happy for this organization and HuK. I really like this organization and I've also been a fan of HuK for along time. GL to both!

Great, now we will see HuK selling Steelseries and the other sponsor stuff like IdrA? HuK is a Good player.. but not good enough for me to follow him after he left TLiquid...

It's sad that Huk's leaving, but it's from one awesome team to another, so the move can only be for the better. Let's just hope that the resulting drama doesn't tilt him away from winning this season of GSL.

So EG are uniting top foreign protoss and zerg with Korean terran to train in Korea. Does this mean this plan stretched back to the original puma announcement.

Also I wonder how does oGs come into play with this.

So instead of Huk sitting next to MC, he will sit next to Idra and Puma. I can't help but feel his skills will deteriorate

*Spoiler* Puma beat MC at NASL Season 1, also I guarantee Huk and MC will still meet on the korean ladder all the time.

In my opinion it was very distasteful to TL to hype buying their player so much. My dislike of EG grew more as a result of this and I'm much less of a Huk fan. I still hope he keeps doing well in Korea to keep the torch up, but in foreigner vs foreigner situations I'm not rooting for him anymore.

Did you even read the announcement? the Hype was for the fact that they acquired HuK AND Idra /PuMa would be training with him in Korea. Stop being so melodramatic.

The most exciting part of this is IdrA back to Korea imo. I've never really followed HuK's career, and this probably won't change that to be honest. Sucks for Liquid though

IdrA, bro, go fuck shit up in Korea my man!

This explains why Idra spoke so positively about HuK in the last SotG.
