i guess it depends on what youre definition of top tear is. in my opinion any player on EG would go far in GSL or any foriegn tourney they enter... you cant argue with results.

Don't pay too much attention to the troll ^^. Anyone found out what Kelly's sad announcement was about? Try not to make casting related jokes.

I mean, they are probably the most successful NA team out there atm, but you guys are acting as if they were the only one. It's a disservice to the other hardworking teams. Not really, because this is not about whether a team is hardworking or not. Its about a team having the money to get a European top player to transfer to them. One might also assume that it is a team that can get this player to Korea, as this would be a prime motivation for this transfer. So EG seems to be a very good guess. Fnatic would be the only other NA possibility imo.
I am somehow thinking about mouz players first here. Maybe Morrow, because I can very much imagine him wanting to go to Korea. On the other hand there are these rumours taht there is a German player involved, but I have no idea who of them has ambitions to change his team.

I believe "Transfers coming up involving prominent European #SC2 players " means some of the Polish players coz earlier on Carmac tweeted this: "Just took the first step towards realising one of my newest life goals. Wish me luck, especially if you're Polish".
Being Polish I hope I'm close to being right. I wouldn't be suprised if ESL or other organisation that Carmac's connected to (ESL would be weird though, I'm just out of ideas) got their own sponsored team. I could be overextending myself here though.
Other than that, any EG hiring type rumours seem senseless to me coz Carmac is in no way connected to those guys (as in bussiness type connection). Why would he be tweeting about someone else's stuff? That's even unprofessional. You can say a lot of things about Carmac but what you definately can not say is that he is unprofessional. That's gotta be some kind of his own project.

announcements of announcements have become the ultimate troll.

Not trying to be offensive here and I do have respect for EG, but many of them really lack the results "that we can't argue about"...

Maybe with "Transfers coming up involving prominent European #SC2 players and maybe a North American team." Carmac actually means a transfer FROM and not TO a NA team. And yes, all his other tweets make it indeed look like the transfer was connected to Carmac.

I can see a perspective where you call them top tier. But they would lose first round of GSL 95%. Of course you have to argue with results to evaluate players. You (and me) don't have the knowledge to judge by skill.

Maybe EGdimaga ? I think Idra need some help from a fellow zerg

i don't understand your response. when you are a professional you play for the money and you make the best business choices you can make, the rest is irrelevant in my eyes. there would be nothing wrong if jinro was asked to joined EG (with more money ofc) and refused because liquid is a family etc.. it would just be a wrong career option.
on topic though: i think we are looking at EG.SaSe here and a 4player eg team house in korea.

naruto (player from from dimaga's team) said this has nothing to do with him.

More I think about that and I'm sure it wont be EG related. They didn't announce an announcements yet

FnaticMSIDimaga because Fnatic needs a zerg and Kawaii said good news soon

EG has 3 players who could hold their own in GSL or any other tournament that has Koreans. I think MLG has shown this to be true.

Thought it would be fnatic because they mentioned in the fenix thread they had new player announcements but if they are not a NA team then I guess it is not them.
If hero was recruited to TL to replace huk then maybe sheth was recruited to replace someone too. EGret
