This is just a "training partnership" which means EG gets to stay with Slayers and train. Sounds like that's basically it. Nothing to see here...

Too much hype wasted the actual news.
From a scale of sheth to idra, how mad are you?

The interview video looks like it has a post-production camera shake added to it. It doesn't feel real at all.

I'm a fan of EG but I feel like they're having NASL syndrome, way overhyping something that doesn't even remotely live up to the hype. I'm still really happy for them and hope to see huk idra and puma greatly improve over there.

I wonder if this means SlayerS players are receiving funding for international tournaments or whether it's just the EG players having access to the house. Maybe Milkis meant this isn't a full partnership like MVP/coL and Quantic/IM are?

Lol of course EG have bought their way in there. Like Slayers profits from training with Idra (lol) and Demuslim (even bigger lol)....


...IdrA has one of the scariest ZvT's when it doesn't revolve around gimmicks... He beat Bomber for chirssakes in macro games... In an interview with MKP/Puma/Rain, two of them said he had one of the scariest ZvT (idr which two, but i can find you link)... And DeMuslim is not bad at all.. he's actually pretty badass

That's because Bomber sat around and applied no pressure. He lost to Moon playing the same style at Dreamhack.

Honestly, I'd be hard-pressed to find another Terran in the GSL who would willingly go toe-to-toe with a decent macro Zerg in a macro game without applying pressure (whether direct or indirect, which is what MVP does) or doing econ damage. Not everyone can or will be as nice as Bomber.

But yeah, Demuslim and IdrA would make pretty good practice partners regardless.


Did you actually watch the games? He applied quite a bit of pressure. Especially game 3 with the gimmicky low gas marine style.

Additionally did you even read the press release? The players permanently training at the SlayerS house are Huk(who is comperable to the best protoss in the SlayerS house, if not better), and PumA who has some of the best TvP in Korea.


That wasn't "applying pressure"...that was "I'm an arrogant egomaniac who thinks I can beat any foreigner by just playing pure marine."

It's around the same level of hubris as him going to the Red Bull LAN 2 days before his MVP match in the GSL Ro16, and still expecting to be able to compete on the same level with less-than-adequate preparation and jetlag.

I agree with Babylon - Orlando was basically Dreamhack Summer all over again.

I actually think Game 3 was less Bomber being arrogant and more of him loathing Metalopolis, but you get my point. (I also don't think he was overconfident going into his match with MVP; if anything, it seemed like he'd given up even before the match started.

His no-pressure, just macro TvZ style though ... he needs to rethink that one, though the show he put on was certainly impressive in Games 1 and 2. I did like his turret rings, also, but now imagine if he did what MVP did and put on pressure ...)

I'll never understand Bomber's brain. It's just too crazy in there.
