theres more potential with JYP why would you be disappointed....

You haven't followed moon's wc3 career have you?


Which is why Moon isn't realistic. He must be extremely expensive based on the reputation and the popularity he brings. Moon would be great, but his price tag makes him unlikely. Should adjust your expectations based on whats realistic. But don't get me wrong.. would love to see Moon on EG.

Price tag? It's EG. If they could get Huk and Puma, they can get Moon.

Pockets are only so deep and when you're using *most likely* most of your budget on Huk, Puma, and Idra you probably can't throw another big name player on the tab without dropping some people.

yea and the guy was making 200k+ a year on his wc3 team. most likely has enough money banked where he can remain teamless for quite some time. a team even offering him 40k a year he wouldn't bother with all the politics, and I doubt EG will pay him 100k+....it would be an insult.

EG has pockets....but I doubt they are going to throw 6 figures his way with Puma, Idra, and Huk on payroll already

if they can get huk for "life changing money" they can get moon. plus it's just good business with his name following and potential.


no it doesn't....the "life changing money" they contracted to get huk could have capped them out on name brand players.

and again the amount of money moon would require is levels above what huk is paid

What do you mean by require? You take what you can get. There are former major leagers who made millions in AAA now making a lot less like $100K. WC3 is over. SC2 is a different game which he is good at and deserving of a decent salary but no one will pay him his former 200K.

Let's say they offered him $50K. Is 50K better than zero? Or better than what other teams offer? That's all that matters not what he made in a former life.

I both don't know how deep EG's pockets are exactly, and I do know that it wouldn't be far-fetched for Moon to take a more humble salary than what he was getting from WemadeFOX. Mostly because it would be unrealistic to expect anyone to give him anything close to what Wemade was throwing at him.

I'm less doubtful on the money aspect than I am about the fact that he still loves WC3 quite a bit, and I don't see EG rushing to put down coin for him if his mindset is the same as some of his recent interviews.

That said, it's still entirely reasonable, especially if he's willing to focus on SC2 full time.

EG Moon would be absolutely sick! EG already has a powerhouse in each race, so I really don't think we can base the decision off of race played.
