Yea, we all better watch out don't want to give an esports team any more publicity. We wouldn't want them to get any more popular right?

So just making sure I'm reading this right. Cause it looks like he said EG would be staying in the SlayerS house. Not living there. Not merging teams, not making a gtsl team. Just staying there.

Acquiring Huk and moving it's team house to Korea are not little things at all. What news is good enough to hype for you people?

Ask them, for some reason they have this awful habit of posting in all of the EG threads... funny, isn't it?

I thought most of the people on TL supported the growth of esports including the growth of one of the only and biggest NA teams, but I guess I forget about sour Huk fans and Destiny fan boys with their silly grudges.

Then I think we disagree on a much broader topic than EG to debate about it in this particular thread.

Alex Garfield will join me on F Slasher today at 5 PM EST on MLG.tv/Twitch.tv/MLG_Live to discuss HuK and Idra's great performance at MLG Orlando. I will be asking about EG/SlayerS, but there is no official statement to be made and is just my journalistic inquiry. Huk will be coming on Live On Three directly after at 7.

In the QxG video I can clearly make out the "EG" logo in the flashing images, merger or something? Sase, destiny, huk Idra, all on same team, oh God.

This is definitely right. If you have a massive announcement to make why not take the chance to get free publicity? Anything else would just be bad business.

Thank you Slasher for bringing a bit of reality back into this thread.

Pretty sure the thread would have at least as many posts, and many more positive, if the announcement was just made plainly. The only reason it might not is if the content isn't deserving of a big response... in which case it makes business sense to drum up "hype".

What does "the growth of esports" even mean? Tbh I don't care jack shit about EG or any other team I don't cheer for just because we all play the same game. I doubt I'm the only feeling like this. And what do you mean with "the only and biggest NA teams," exactly?
Also, I'm no fan of Destiny but it seems like you're the one holding grudge against Destiny fanboys. Destiny fanboys aint worse than IdrA fanboys for an example.

If it is a QxG/EG merger that would be pretty crazy, maybe it is some kind of combined contract for moving to a korea house to train. Speculating is fun, I guess...

Nope, because the actual thread is going to have just as many posts, which would double the post count in the theory that you have.

You know that there are more than 100 pages on this thread and it isn't even announced yet. How could a normal straight forward announcement get more views?
And about the negativity: You are naive if you think haters (let's call them esport-haters) wouldn't have wrote stuff in the official announcemnet too.
