Easier access to foreign tournaments is a huge plus; iirc Quantic is helping to send MVP and Nestea to Providence whereas that might not have been possible without the partnership. I don't know about you, but I don't think I could handle any more koreans in foreign tournaments; really - they're killing most of the foreigners as it is! | ||

I don't know all the details, but one of the biggest benefits that SlayerS can get from this is having easy access to foreign events in many respects. They can have funding to fly out to the tournaments (by representing EGs sponsors) since most, if not all Korean teams are short on cash and sponsors. On top of that, if they would like to, they are likely able to fly out to the team house in Arizona to train for a bit while overcoming jet lag. Even if the tournament is on the east coast of the US, that is negligible when it comes to jet lag. And then there are some smaller things like it brings even more recognition to their team, and they do get new practice partners such as IdrA, Demuslim, HuK and Puma. And what does SlayerS have to "sarcrifice" or contribute? Likely just accommodation for the EG players. Again, I don't know the details so maybe some of what I said is false, but I think it is quite a reasonable partnership. Even if one side benefits a bit more than the other, they still both benefit. Just to clear some things up.. This is a player training partnership. SlayerS will be representing their own sponsors in Korean or foreign tournaments. Neither team will be associated with each other's sponsors.. | ||

So just because they'r better than most foreigners they should not be allowed to compete?Then there is no reason to get better for us foreigners! Don't you think someone who puts about 40-50 hours into practice every week should be allowed to defeat someone who practices when he feels like it? | ||

- MMA can improve his TvP with Huk, because foreign P seems to be damn good nowadays - MMA will then silence Huk and his wrestling banter with his actual MMA skills - SlayerS will have some non-terran opponents to practice with (except Puma lol) - Idra will finally learn how to deal with cheese from the Emperor himself and be manner about it (because MMA will physically kick his ass if he disrespects anyone in the SlayerS house) - Boxer can grack more jokes | ||

That would be awesome seeing EG compete in the GSL.. Can't wait for IdrA and Demuslim to show their stuff in Code A Does this also mean when Slayers comes to The United States for Tournaments will they be staying at the EG House? | ||
