With his strong BW past I can't help but wonder how good his ties are with Liquid. They may have some room in the budget with the deal meant for Huk and Fenix could want to stay in Korea.

I like watching Fenix play and it seems like a good fit, though of course EG and FXO could also be in the mix.

Cleaning up in their roster cuz of lacking results or what is going on? LucifroN, Gretorp, Sen and now Fenix. And the rest of the team doesn't show much excecpt Rain last MLG.

Did you even read the article? They wanted to keep him, but they couldn't come to a mutual agreement on the terms of his contract. He's going to search for a team that can support him the way he needs.


I feel that the problem of the fair value of a SC2 player is going to rise again in the future. SC2 is a very volatile game, with a fast changing metagame. In a matter of months, a player can be the best and then suffer of a really huge slump (like Jinro). Therefore, you have plenty of players with championship bells and no way to say who's better than who. HuK is paid 187000/year (at least, that's the rumor). What that this means for the other players? Naniwa, Thorzain or Sen are on the same level of HuK, or at least, have a shot at attaining that level. How much money should they win? By giving so much money to HuK, i think EG destabilize the market of SC2 pros, as they are a lot to legitimately think that they should get a huge pay rise. Problem is nobody is sure about who deserves the huge money. I wish it was possible, but i don't think that the pro-teams have the money to pay these these high 6 numbers salaries yet. MyM tried it, and failed.

No, LeBron is a way bigger asshole than this black golfer who thought he was charly sheen.


How is Lebron an asshole for wanting to play for a team that is willing to acquire talent and actually give him a chance to win. The only "stars" that Cleveland was willing to acquire were has beens and never weres. Lebron is clearly an asshole for wanting to win.


Nah. He's the original quoted is talking about the drama about his decision. So now we get countdowns to announcements, people saying cryptic things, etc. This is at least what was being implied by the original person saying "What Lebron started." Teams need to stop hyping shit and just tell you what is going to happen...


Ya I understand what the first person said, but I wasn't responding to him. Also regardless of what you think people love the hype. A lot of people put a lot of time into the Huk to EG thing, and a ton of people were following it. Also "The Decision" had huge ratings, and even though the media condemned it afterwards, they were the ones who built it up and got him to do it in the first place.

Fact is, we can't always tell you everything yet, as it might upset parties or the entire deal. I don't know about others, but we are giving out the information we can. We can also say nothing about future signings too and leave you wondering about what will happen with our team, but I guess some info is better than none at all.

And obviously, we're a business, so we want to get as many hits and views, etc. out of it as possible, by giving a press release in the best possible manner, and not half-done.


I guess. I see a lot of people saying guess what we will announce, big announcement incoming, my next tweet will hold a big announcement, etc. I know hype is important as a business, but I think the actual moves will hype themselves in most cases. For example, when you signed NightEnD or Rain it was hyped by itself .

I'm not sure who does that, but we try not to go that far. We're just saying we're going to add new players so we don't leave you in the dark and that you know we're trying to move forward, and not backwards. I think our new additions will show our ambition.

I was wrong about the HuK swap, but I'm fairly certain he'll find a home somewhere else.

It's unfortunate to see FnaticMSI lose yet another great player with much potential. As far as predictions go, like one person early in the thread said something bout the EG hype Spanish Audio clip and EG claiming they have more to announce in the future, I see Fenix joining EG as a possibility. He could easily join the EG team house in Korea as he is already in Korea playing for F.United in GSTL. Aside from that, maybe he'll join col or FXO. Good luck to both FnaticMSI and Fenix in the future!

Didn't Fenix used to be in Root/Fnatic house with CatZ/Drewbie/TT1/Kiwikaki ? So his relationship with CatZ and Drewbie (coL) must be really good. I can see him going to coL and join Drewbie @ MVP house.

And otherwise EG -> Korean EG house. But because EG house is gonna happen from October and on, I don't see this happening as Fenix wants to stay in Korea and his current place (we made fox) is going to disband in a week. So I expect news within a week time of Fenix' new plans.

Just speculations.

I personally see a Korean team picking him up if he wants to stay in Korea.

For some reason I see Startale maybe picking him up.

If he eventuallys leaves Korean I could see him in ReIGN or coL
