Alex might be a bit of a dick sometimes but he has his heart in the right place and it sounds like he's really helping the players out.

Nothing other than the "stars" in the main graphic should lead anyone to believe startale is involved. Every clue either involves the date or the players of EG.

To be fair, it could just as easily be bombs = nukes = Boxer.

The thing about the website is pretty far-fetched. Just because a site contains a list of constellations and stories to go along with them doesn't mean it's at all connected. There are plenty of sites out there that have the same information.

Gracken + Boxer? Not looking forward to this. I pray that the good parts of SlayerS rubs off on EG and NOT the other way round.

But seriously guys, if you hate the PR, whatever, is it really that big a deal? Let them have their fun, and don't care about it. You complaining and whining only hurts yourself, which is stupid.

What are the "bad parts" of EG and the "good parts" of SlayerS, other than Slayers picking up amazing terran players?

Ok im gonna give it a guess.

Star Tale , EG , Quantic Gaming will all share the Same House (Practicing together) in Korea

All The Teams will stay seperate entities per se. But Quantic Gaming and EG will form a GSTL Team together.

So they will get to practice with Star Tale Players too. (Bomber, Curious, JulyZerg, FruitDealer,And Others)


And Star Tale has quite a sick line-up of Players


Just quoting myself from before the slayers announcement ; I still feel this is akin to what's going to happen and or in conjunction with the slayers team but I still feel the slayers thing is a diversion to confuse us


I like the sound of this much better. Slayers is being used as a decoy.




That and I also was the first one to guess before huk to EG that they would have a Korean team house partnered witha koreean or foreigner team and I also believed the whole time that it was definitely huk to EG

And he missing spots in the GSTL league at the time made me come t this conclusion

Sorry mods for confusion on iPhone

Bomberman music is probably a red herring, EG did that with the HuK announcement too, remember all the clues about WhiteRa? And when the community thought it was WhiteRa they decided to change the campaign to focus more on misleading people who thought it was about him? Wouldn't be surprised if more Bomber related videos popped up because of that.

The "stories being told by the stars" thing I don't buy. It could just as easily be related to "the stars of EG" or something like that. Or it could just be their cool way or presenting the campaign and only the videos have any actual meaning.

Or it could be Startale related and not SlayerS related. Either way it's almost guaranteed to be a korean house with some korean team involved and QxG involved too. I think that is pretty much 100% confirmed.

How can SlayerS be being used as a decoy when the whole thing came from a korean media site unrelated to EG?

It's vastly more likely that startale was being used as a decoy, and milkis pulled the rug out from under them.

Dudes, Alex said that they will announce it on the 21th and that people probably already figured it out by calculating it. Does anyone know the exact time it takes them to put up a new hint?
Because then we can calculat when exactly the last hint (maybe solution) will arrive.
like: x * 17 = ???
x beeing the duration between 2 hints and 17 is the amount of stars left on the page

Why does everyone feed into the empty hype cycle like this? So they're moving to Korea. That's awesome, I hope IdrA and HuK become even more beastly from the experience. That's it. The more we buy into the 24 hour/day "announcement of an announcement" hype machine, the more they are going to feed it to us.

I, for one, am sick of it. But I seem to be alone...

have you ever seen an advertisement for anything ever?

it's the same thing


I dislike advertisements as well - do you like them? My point stands.


Just ignore it then, you wont be missed. And you dislike advertisement? Hope youre still a student, you would hate your life if you were a working man.


I'm a 29 year old professional. As if age effects an individual not liking empty messages shoved down their throats? Good point... :/


And you havent learned to ignore it by now? How do you watch tv, movies, or even starcraft? Or are you one of those guys that turns on your adblock so that streams dont profit?

You investing in this thread clearly shows that the hype got to you. You can try to deny it and isolate yourself from the thread but im not sure if thats what you really want.


What "got to me" is just the EG bootlickers who follow this shit like it's the most important thing in the world. I felt I had to make a statement about it.

I like Idra and HuK very much -- I think they represent the peak of the NA scene. I wish nothing but the best for EG. I, myself, just dislike the cheeseball hype tactics that a lot of TLers seem to soil their shorts over.

Best of luck to EG. That's all you'll hear from me. Keep hyping.....uh...I guess we'll find out soon.


I'm afraid you were gravely mistaken

Some people just take things a bit too seriously?

I still don't understand why a little hype before an announcement is a bad thing. EG is letting their fans/community have a little bit of fun playing the guessing game before the announcement. What's the big fucking problem with that?

If you don't want to guess, then leave this thread alone? Crazy idea, I know.

This would be very strange as the two houses seem fully opposed in their work/gaming/training ethics.

EG is going to broker an acquisition deal of Quantic Gaming.

Destiny signs contracts to ensure the deal goes through but has his concerns about joining the team. After racist comments on his stream he leaves EG and goes back to being teamless. Order is restored.

EG is a big marketing machine sometime. All the talk for what? I don't even understand what is true, what comes from EG, what comes from the fans...
In the end what ? Are they really going to live with Slayers ?.....
