Something tells me that Zenio's move to Liquid might be related to EG's signing of a new player...

Maybe its EG's response to liquid's additional Korean signing (after hero) or someone shifting outta liquid? Cos i believe right after Hero was signed up by Liquid, Puma was added by EG, if im not mistaken. Or Liquid having 4 zergs (ret haypro and zenio and the newly shifted TLO) out of which one might leave. in that case the "not from here" comment might mean a european and now korean (tlo or ret)/

all this speculation and thinking is hurting my head. time to watch some pwnage by ForGG on his stream....

EG signed PuMa two weeks before HerO went to Liquid and I doubt it is another Liquid-to-EG move.



I'm just speculating, but liquid having 4 zergs doesn't make sense really. If players decide to move and inform their teams accordingly, it gives the team time to find a replacement. Maybe that's where Zenio comes into play.
While i might be wrong about the "you signed a korean so i'll sign a korean" notion, i think a liquid -> eg move isn't entirely impossible for Ret or TLO. more likely ret due to his good show at tournaments. he also fulfills the "not from around here" criteria that eg tweeted about.

Again, this is all deductive speculation based on recent changes/moves by teams.


I think the rest of Liquid will never go EG, having more of one race isnt all that uncommon is it? doesnt slayers have a bajillion terrans



SlayerS has way too many players. discont the korean teams as their system is different from foreign teams. team houses, team leagues etc - you know what i mean. However, just saying no Liquid player will move to EG is a pretty broad statement to make. EG has habit of throwing a ton of cash at good players they think are worth it. Huk is an example.

The more I think about this, the more it begins to make sense. We might see another Liquid player being poached by EG. TLO or Ret seem like the logical choice. If this happens, shit's gonna get real between Liquid & EG.


I don't see any logic in that whatsoever. How is TLO a logical choice? If they decided to throw money at someone, TLO would be pretty far down on the list.

I have a hard time seeing why EG would want TLO. And why TLO would ever consider EG after he got so stirred up by Huk leaving TL. You might be weakly grabbing at straws with Ret but TLO is a no go.


I see no reason for EG to pick up any liquid players ~_~;

btw, if they were to get someone known it would have been more hyped up rather than one twit and then nothing after that


Maybe, or they are trying to fool you to think that. Though it might support the VTperfect in his Violet suggestion if you follow that line of thought. I think it will be someone more recognizable though.



I did state in my earlier post that Ret is the more reasonable choice rather than TLO. But while it seems highly unlikely, seeing Ret go to EG seems like the logical explanation to Liquid picking up Zenio out of nowhere. Especially since Ret was the one zerg in Liquid who was making waves in tournaments.

And btw I was wrong - liquid has 5 zergs. I forgot about Sheth, who has done reasonably well at tournaments (besides Zenio, Ret, Haypro, TLO). Adds to my theory of EG picking up Ret. Sheth is American if im not mistaken, so he doesnt fulfill the "not from around here" category EG tweeted. Ret going to EG? Shit's gonna get real between the two teams!

They both have a bad image, not for the same reason but still they got a lot of crap for things that are absolute standard for businesses and in professional sports.

I still think it's JYP (although Jinro said it's highly unlikly), Coca, Moon, Moonglade.

"not from around here" what i first thought was not from korea, but then i realized it could just as well be not from a foreign country.

and now i think it's not a sc2 player. so that could be a BW or wc3 player (Moon for instance)

Ret is from Netherlands, which I believe doesn't qualify as "around here" (major assumption being "around here" means the US). JYP/Killer are my other possible logical choices. But pairing Ret with IdrA is just beastly.

I'm just speculating, but liquid having 4 zergs doesn't make sense really. If players decide to move and inform their teams accordingly, it gives the team time to find a replacement. Maybe that's where Zenio comes into play.
While i might be wrong about the "you signed a korean so i'll sign a korean" notion, i think a liquid -> eg move isn't entirely impossible for Ret or TLO. more likely ret due to his good show at tournaments. he also fulfills the "not from around here" criteria that eg tweeted about.

Again, this is all deductive speculation based on recent changes/moves by teams.


I think the rest of Liquid will never go EG, having more of one race isnt all that uncommon is it? doesnt slayers have a bajillion terrans



SlayerS has way too many players. discont the korean teams as their system is different from foreign teams. team houses, team leagues etc - you know what i mean. However, just saying no Liquid player will move to EG is a pretty broad statement to make. EG has habit of throwing a ton of cash at good players they think are worth it. Huk is an example.

The more I think about this, the more it begins to make sense. We might see another Liquid player being poached by EG. TLO or Ret seem like the logical choice. If this happens, shit's gonna get real between Liquid & EG.


I have a hard time seeing why EG would want TLO. And why TLO would ever consider EG after he got so stirred up by Huk leaving TL. You might be weakly grabbing at straws with Ret but TLO is a no go.


I see no reason for EG to pick up any liquid players ~_~;

btw, if they were to get someone known it would have been more hyped up rather than one twit and then nothing after that


Maybe, or they are trying to fool you to think that. Though it might support the VTperfect in his Violet suggestion if you follow that line of thought. I think it will be someone more recognizable though.



I did state in my earlier post that Ret is the more reasonable choice rather than TLO. But while it seems highly unlikely, seeing Ret go to EG seems like the logical explanation to Liquid picking up Zenio out of nowhere. Especially since Ret was the one zerg in Liquid who was making waves in tournaments.

And btw I was wrong - liquid has 5 zergs. I forgot about Sheth, who has done reasonably well at tournaments (besides Zenio, Ret, Haypro, TLO). Adds to my theory of EG picking up Ret. Sheth is American if im not mistaken, so he doesnt fulfill the "not from around here" category EG tweeted. Ret going to EG? Shit's gonna get real between the two teams!

Why REt? I heard he doesn't want to practise a lot and that doesn't fit with EG.
And he is to "from around here" to be "not from around here".

I still think it's JYP (although Jinro said it's highly unlikly), Coca, Moon, Moonglade.


Ret is from Netherlands, which I believe doesn't qualify as "around here" (major assumption being "around here" means the US). JYP/Killer are my other possible logical choices. But pairing Ret with IdrA is just beastly.

I know that he is from Netherland but with the assumption that "not from around here" means not from US AND not from TL (which also could be "here") I just feel that Korea/SEA is "not from around here(er)" than Ret.

Or Liquid having 4 zergs (ret haypro and zenio and the newly shifted TLO) out of which one might leave. in that case the "not from here" comment might mean a european and now korean (tlo or ret)/

all this speculation and thinking is hurting my head. time to watch some pwnage by ForGG on his stream....

I don't see any logic in that whatsoever. How is TLO a logical choice? If they decided to throw money at someone, TLO would be pretty far down on the list.

Zenio is on TL because of the relationship between oGs and TL. When Zenio refused to live in the oGs team house, he was forced to be removed from the team. Since TL and oGs already had a partnership, not that much would change for Zenio. He gets the same training partners and gets to live where he wants.

That still doesn't make any sense, especially if you take into account the circumstances with TL picking up Zenio. I highly doubt it has anything to do with Liquid losing a player. Maybe you should read up a little on the circumstances before you start throwing wild theories out there. And stop saying shit is going to get real. Once was enough.

Moon, he no longer really needs to play wc3 anymore, surely wcg were the last event and well Moon came bottom of his group? Think he would be silly to not fully focus on sc2 from now on.

Maybe Violet? He's teamless and wants a team house in the US which is exactly what EG have. He's also Korean and quite good.

Closing this thread would be the smartest choice. We have no grounds on anything, or hints this time. Just speculation thrown around all over the place.

@Firepaw - It's pointless and going nowhere. Why don't you throw names in a hat and start picking at them randomly? That will have the same result as this thread. We'll find out in two days.
