No offense, but as an aspiring international team you should really employ someone who speaks English as his first language to write these announcements. Other than that, nice pick ups and good luck in the future

Good luck, but in my mind you are a team that kicked cArn when he was down, so you better get some results to erase that.

Oh come on. You put all this money into funding a team.. and you can't find 1 person to proof read this article and re-write it in fluent English. I wouldn't be surprised if this was written in French and then Google translated.

I've nothing against the org, and I think you are doing really well with the team, but please stop giving us news articles in Frenglish!

I agree actually. Considering how they acquired top players they seem to have a lot of funds (I hope so for the players' sake atleast) but the management isn't incredibly professional. If that changes then I'll be following eS for sure though.

Calling Carn's departure a "ban" is weird, but I guess this could be blamed on english not being the writer's native language. At least they're being honest with time and admitting he had to leave because he was lacking results.

Nice pick up!

But I have to agree with all the posters about the language, these English press releases definitely need some editing. I'm not a native speaker myself but English is my major at the university, so I might be able to help if needed. I have considered minoring in journalism so I wouldn't mind a chance to try stuff like that out.

In any case, good luck in any future endeavors and hopefully 2012 will be a great year for the team!

Terrible terrible English. For a team who contracts player with the clear intent of making a big splash on the international scene, that's shameful. Especially since the content itself is more interesting than all the PR empty talk other teams have gotten us used to.

This reminds me of the anime DVD's I used to buy on Ebay from Hong Kong. I would always be excited, then watch as the subtitles were broken English and had no idea what was going on.

Congrats on picking up the Prime guys though.

Well done esahara. That mistake was yea too much xD Sick lineup.

I play 1v1 SC2 because I've heard there are people who are currently better than I - and that pisses me off.

eSahara is slowly getting a sick-nasty roster. Naama is one of my favorite players plus they have three sick Koreans (HongUn, Maka, and Check), it seems like they're going to have a really deep roster especially if they're partaking in foreign tournaments. Hope these guys keep getting better! ^^

Man I just still can't believe what eSahara has become. It seems like only a few months ago they were this small team with few good player and now, they are looking beastly. Maybe one of the best foreign team ATM

Hope they perform well in the Nasl Team League has this could get them some much need exposure

What eSahara has achieved in such a little time is impressive, though I really hope its sustainable. You'll have a fan if you manage to keep this up for a few months.

Can't help but feel pessimistic in view of organisations solely based on investors, there's been way too many big spenders in the past, particularly in Europe, but then they ended up folding within a few months, so I really hope you can manage to keep it sustainable and grow gradually

Good luck!

Good pickups i guess but they arent in Prime anymore for a reason. All of them are still code B players and all of primes new members are code A. You're kinda just picking up Primes leftovers because theres clearly something Prime didnt see in them going forward.

I have a feeling this isnt going to turn out as well as eSahara expects. And not making NASTL twice now isnt good. Hopefully you guys can get in IPL TAC if you arent already.

Good pickups i guess but they arent in Prime anymore for a reason. All of them are still code B players and all of primes new members are code A. You're kinda just picking up Primes leftovers because theres clearly something Prime didnt see in them going forward.

I have a feeling this isnt going to turn out as well as eSahara expects. And not making NASTL twice now isnt good. Hopefully you guys can get in IPL TAC if you arent already.


we lost 3-5 to New Stars Hoseo >< San raped us : (

Gratz to eSahara on their expansion. But man, Prime is losing a LOT of its firepower :l ... First Polt, then Maka, Check, and HongUn? .. Not looking too good for them..

Don't worry, Prime still got amazing monsters that recently qualified for code A after getting exposed in the GSTL, such as Creator, AnnYeong and Pizza 'BbongBbong' Boy. Only Polt departure was really an important loss in terms of skills.

Go eSahara! Definitely one of the teams the community should keep their eye on, this year.

I hope that the G(lobal)ST(eam)L will, at some point, introduce a model which allows foreign teams to participate and, if that time comes, I hope to see eSahara in it!

Korean players seem to be flooding into foreign teams. Anyone else seeing similarities to when the west subjugated the east in the 19th century? Almost ironic given the rise of china in the last decade.

Well for all the drama that is connected with e.Sahara, so far I've had the feeling that they are sincere and for that reason I will be following them somewhat and will cheer them on when their players are not playing any of the players listed below.

I didn't know Europeans and Americans hired Korean mercenaries to fight for their colonial empires... Wait what. Let me just say history metaphors just don't work.

Anyway, eSahara is starting to look pretty good. Naama is going to be carrier-proof.
It can't be helped. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I started out liking you, then I didn't for a little bit because of the Pepe and cArn incidents, but now I can see you guys really mean well and well...you're alright.

Will cheer for you.

You could at least use proper English when publishing something like that if you want to be taken more serious.

Anyway great pickups. GLGL

I always tend to be quite skeptical whenever a relatively new team makes that many investments in such a short period. But nevertheless gl to all those involved.

So glad HongUn's found a team, I hope that eSahara won't make previous blunders so that they can be the team that he deserves.

eSahara definitely is the most formidable foreign team after the acquisition of HongUn. Great work picking up great players! ><

Such an unusual story to have so many stories of management making mistakes like that. Nice to see eShara doing someting about it in such a swift manner. Excited to see the future of this team, so many new players.

Also, that picture of babyknight is so awesome, no homo XD

Meh. Tired of these daily eSahara roster changes. Just seems like spam now.

lol... You're tired of seeing a team improve itself? What are you doing in eSports if you don't like progress? Stop putting negative attitudes towards positive moves.
Hope eSahara fails to disappoint =P

The sentance structure in the first paragraph makes it close to not understandable. But nice pick up.
Quit trolling. Apart from the "was big news" part (should be were big news), everything was grammatically correct. Admittedly there were several punctuation errors in the rest of the article, it's not bad.

Nice pick up agreed. HongUn needs a team (so you can show us carriers before they disappear!!)
