I think Puma had an important part on hiring JYP. Everytime he won a tournament, he thanked JYP. Actually, MVP also did that a few times. He must be an amazing practice partner.

TSL eaten aLive lately. Congrats EG. I think I see a pattern - JYP/Puma beats TL/OGS member in important match, EG acquisition follows. We'll see how that works out.

On SOTG didn't incontrol say demuslim and idra don't really practise against each other because they meet in tournaments? Ever since I've worried that the EG players in the team house aren't actually using each other as practise partners to the extent that they could.

It would be really nice if JYP moved to the EG house and then he and puma showed them how it was done.

This could make EG the best non-Korean team - maybe even ahead of mouz.

huk, Idra, Puma, JYP, Demuslim is a scary lineup.

How many more players till EG gets to have its own GSTL team? if Demuslim comes over dont they have a full set? think gom will let them?


That would be exciting
MLG: How is your Protoss? Idra: I make Blink Stalkers, so really, really good.

Nice acquisition. JYP will be quite scary if he works on his PvT.

Well congratulations EG, buying more talents. Not very fun to see a foreign team only picking up koreans in order to get better results, but oh well, better than JYP being teamless i suppose

I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but wouldn't they need atleast 7 guys for a full gstl lineup?
With Huk, Idra, Puma and JYP in Korea that would mean, even if incontrol/demuslim come over, they'd still need another 2 players, or buy some more from tsl.

Either way gl to eg and jyp, really excited to see jyp at hsc and other international events next year.

Why would you need 7, exactly? Was there some sort of rule about it? It's Bo9, why would you need more than 5...

even so, I could see EG picking up foreign players in Korea as mercenaries (desRow, LastShadow if he's still there, whoever else)

Worst kept secret ever. Anyone who marginally knows how EG works could have seen this coming. They wouldn't pass on the opportunity to add a player who was teamless yet competiting in the hardest league in the world.
That's how EG does it. The $ figure works a thon.

I think you might have missed the other thread. Yes, first everyone thought about JYP, because he was teamless, but after the silhouette it was all about grubby,moon,boxer and savior^^
and you might have missed the TL-thread about Zenio, lol

but what do you mean with "knows how EG works"?

Great pickup EG! Good luck to both JYP and Evil Geniuses. Not really unexpected...but still a great pickup nonetheless.
