Maybe Naniwa's going to go for 1 more team by the end of the year.... More likely to be a player from either Broodwar or another game though.

Naniwa maybe, Geoff said he is going to take Nani under his wing to change his attitude. Thats kind of hard to do since he is in another house etc.... hmmmmmm

If we're taking that seriously, FruitDealer's real name is Kim Won Ki. Fruitdealer has been known to not enjoy the Korean method of training and it stands to reason he would enjoy a foreign team and the opportunities they would bring. They even have another Korean player to ease the transition, and Puma played with Fruitdealer when they were both at TSL.

Edit: I am mistaken, it would seem. So much for my thought on the matter, I'm clueless too . My apologies. (Although for the record his twitter says "kimwonki", though I admit to having little knowledge of Korean naming conventions or the translation from Korean-English).

Why does eg insist on doing these?

Also curious why this thread has lasted so long. I've seen other EG announcment of announcment threads closed asaply


First of all, if it annoys you, don't open it or read it -_-. The fans generate the hype and respond to the marketing.. its not meant for every single possible fan out there to get sucked in no matter what.

Since EG, two other big teams, Quantic and TL have take similar approaches to the "announcement of and announcment" and both have seen great success doing it.

The korean K and hard G are used interchangeably. Also, his surname is Kim. His name, therefore, is Kim Won (K/G)i.

Vindicate's speculation, therefore, is valid.

Just thought I'd point that out

Oh well, yeah, I know it's Kim, just mistyped T_T

But I don't think it'll be smart for EG to recruit Fruitdealer, I mean, he's pretty lazy and only playing LoL and not practising for SC2, besides that, he's not that young anymore either.

Or maybe KimK is the ID of a really unknown player that no one has heard of... so does that mean EG is picking up new blood?

Highly Unlikely.

Oddly enough, it sounds like HuK learned there would be a new player pretty much the same way the community did. The EG managers didn't tell him that a player had been signed or who it was (which was a disappointment for him it sounds like). I think he knew they were looking at a few options but that's it...
