I don't get how people can get so upset over it, if you don't care for it, don't go to the website, it isn't being shoved into your face so why complain about it?

I for one like this kind of marketing, but if I didn't I sure wouldn't be complaining, because it doesn't effect me at all until I heard the announcement.

Idk why there is such negativity in this thread. If you really have an issue with the hype, don't pay attention to it and don't read this thread as if you care about it.

Back to the clues, I say!

what i don't understand is why everyone has to pee their pants and make a poopy face about these things. it's like you're actually offended that PR is doing their job. i don't care what people say, i enjoy these things a lot. it's in the back of my head all day and it keeps me excited for whatever EG related thing comes next. that's what the whole point of it is, and it works for me.


The thing is that not only is an a major announcement about a sport we enjoy to watch, it is well done and creative. It is enjoyable to try and figure out the clues. It still is, in context to the spoiler a lot of the clues(especially the V for Vendetta one) don't make sense, and a lot of backward reasoning needs to be done for us to figure it out. The emporer and the kraken was a good idea someone had.

And then they name a star Aries?? That is literally the God of War. That is a huge hint suggesting something involving July that they have hinted out many other times, but it could just be a red herring.

Hahaha, I think this thread is amusing. Just keep checking it every day and I see 1/2 of the comments say "I dont know what they are talking about but I don't care about this announcement. But they better announce it RIGHT NOW! I hate EG!"
The other half are speculation and pretending to calm down or pretend to be above other posters who are haters, and thus they will hate etc...

Its glorious in a way. I am sure incontrol gets off to this kind of thread hahaha!

Wow that would great for idra and huk if they get into the slayers house, that is almost the number 1 rule if you want to succeed in GSL, you have to have good (P or Z) vT and slayers has a lot of real good Ts to practice with. I would pay to see practice between idra and boxer, boxer bunker rushing idra and then looking over at him and saying : ohh i am sorry grack where you not ready for that". xp

Adding to this, in mythology Aries was the ram that was sacrificed to create the Golden Fleece.

Slayers already has so many players, I dunno how can they accommodate more people from a foreign team.
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

also consider that Huk and IdrA are really well suited for the BW-like practice schedule of the Slayers house

2nd house/b-teamer house. Which they would either get or even have one already. But you have a point.

I don't think we'll hear anything revealed on Slasher's show, it'll mostly be about IdrA/HuK.

Mars is the Roman God of War, which backwards without the S is ram, which is also the Zodiac symbol for Aries. Aries' half-sister is Athena, Athens is the Greek capital...

"I'm not going to say who it's with" --> implying it is some sort of joint announcement (with either QxG or a Korean team)... I guess we knew that already but it's confirmed now.

"Announcement on the 21st" --> confirmed date
