the answers to your questions are in the op, I suggest you read it

it's a good thing all the relevant info is in the OP, for the people that know how to read at least.
|
Pretty good player, has the potential to become really good if he keeps playing a lot. Good luck

I watched his interview for the LDLC Winter Trophy. He's a very humble and talented player. I hope Eclypsia gives him the opportunity to go SC2 full time. Go Elvis!
|
he's not bad...let's see who this new team add next and we'll know more about their amibitions.
|
ho ! ELVIS awesome player :p
see u buddy

I have to agree, who joins what now?
people can't just make announcements for people we've never heard of, for teams we've never heard of.

"Who's next?"
I hope Johnny Cash
j/k gl hf

Haven't heard of either, but I will gl to both in the future! From what I have read in the OP he sounds like a nice guy .
|
So is ELVIS going to IPL Las Vegas? heuheuheu
best of luck!
|
Well, hard to have heard about a team that is just announcing their first player.
Elvis is decent, i saw him in 1-2 tournaments, but if i wouldnt have played him many times on ladder i would probably also have problems to remember his name.
gl in the future to Elvis and this team!

He kind of looks like Ret. I bet he makes a lot of drones, too. Maybe he's even the king of making drones?

Well maybe you don't know him, people like you only know those players who are selling themselves really well or just the best players, but yes there are actually talented players out there who are not widely known and such threads support them and the organizations or teams who are willing to invest in their potential.... just don't read threads like this if you don't care. I personally think this thread has more reasons to exist than some diamond league guide or a completely random person making a stream thread or whatever.

good luck Taip and ELVIS with this new project.

Wow, Elvis lives, I didn't think those conspiracy theorsists were right, but I guess I was wrong, Elvis lives!. But I didn't think he was playing sc2, I guess I was wrong.
and I have at admit, I though Elvis would be playing protoss, not Zerg, I guess with old age he has gotten used to being around bugs.

I don't know about him, but I will. I've seen idiots say the same on threads about e-Sahara, LighT and Type. If you don't know who he is or the team he's in great, don't come and shit on the player and the team. That's really rude.

Players such as HuK and Naniwa didn't get eFamous because they just happened to get announced, they got it because they are very skilled players, this guy is 'top 50 gm' which while being a good accomplishment is not the kind of thing which makes me jump out of my seat.

|
These "X joins Y" threads are getting ridiculous now...
|
This isn't really worthy of its own thread...
|
A team I have never heard of a player I never heard of and the only thing on the website is the roster and a big "Coming soon" sign... And the only one on the roster is Elvis... This sure smell like advertisement.

Not everyone is a Naniwa or a Huk you know. That's why not every player gets a fucking ridiculous thread announcing an announcement through teaser websites and bullshit sound files. Other players get a simple thread announcing their new team. Fuck, even threads about shitty songs are still up and running, why isn't an announcement like this worth its own thread? It's about a player joining a team, the most seminal act in the SC2 scene. If you don't care about that and only about star players, I'm sorry to say but you're really superficial. And people wonder why it's so hard to break in the SC2 scene... It's because people like you don't give a shit.

Wow calm down. Please what they really want to know is why this unknown team picking up a unknown player deserve a thread while a lot of other good players, and more known players, change team and don't get a thread. Ofcourse if they arn't unkown please tell me their achivements and history. Because I sure can't find anything.

good luck. not sure why everyone is bashing on creating a thread of a relatively unknown player who needs the exposure :-P
|
Congrats! I'm always happy when the scene gets a chance to expand and more lesser known teams and players. Best of luck to everyone involved.
|
Good luck Elvis. Here's to new talent!
|
Elvis is an awesome guy and a great player, I'm like 1-6 against him now x.X;
EDIT: In responce to the hatred, Elvis often streams and beats all your favourite euros like nerchio and stephano and TLO, so just because you haven't heard his name doens't mean he isn't good. People need to embrace new talent not act like fags.

Happy birthday, but still if you don't know him its not his problem? Doesn't mean he is "unknown". He might be no superstar, but he's very known to me and a lot of other EU players. I still remember when TaKe / me did cast him against Startale_Rainbow and he took the game very easily so.. he is always high ranked and has good tournament runs :x
If you really think he's a noname, please do your homework first before writing its not worth an announcement.

It's irrelevant who he is, people shouldn't go and shit on his thread calling him basically a no-one because you don't know who he is, that's your fault, not his. And yes, more known players always get their threads, don't act coy because that's not gonna stick.

Who's fault is it if not yours? It just means you are too busy watching your favorite players and not keeping an eye on up and coming players. I for my part and others know him... so who's fault is it?

wow everyones gotta chill, you can't blame the consumer for not knowing what the new up and coming products are. Its the job of the company to market it if it actually is any good anyways.
Though i suppose if you don't give a shit about the player and the team, its better to stay off posting in the thread and posting some "smart" remarks.
I don't know who these guys are anyways but good luck!
|
I don't know why most of the posts in this thread are so negative, but I'm always happy to hear about new teams and players making their way into the scene. I look forward to seeing ELVIS play. Good luck~
|
Looks like a nice team, will see
|
people need to stop posting craft like "who is he and never head of him/the team). you dont have to post in a thread you have no clue what or who it is about.
|
I thought this thread was quite funny at the start...until people started to get all serious. It was pretty obvious it was going to get the response it did so i dont get why people arn't having fun with it.
Anyways, good luck to this chap.

Do my homework? How much do you want me to do? I enter the thread and saw a team I have never heard of announcing a player I have never heard of. From the thread I saw I was not alone in this so instead of just saying "who joins what?" I decided too actually look up the teams website. And you know what? There was nothing about the team, and nothing about the players. This is the only page on the site.
![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/m061E.png)
So much information! Neither the op nor the site say anything about their accomplishments. And no I don't mean beating pros on the ladder. That happens all the time. Sure it means he isn't a complete scrub, but it is not an accomplishment. Sure some people will know him I'm sure. But even if I have heard his name once and he have been casted a few times in some weekly cup, he is still a unknown. He isn't even close to Huk, Idra, Naniwa, White-ra. People who everyone can see "oh yeah they picked up him? I know what he can do and have done, cool". He IS unknown. He haven't won any major tournament, maybe some weekly or daily cups, maybe he is bigger in German, sure, but not internationally.
What I really want to say is, that if you want to announce a player, with no major record, and your team don't have any record at all either, as you can see the team isn't even active yet. They say they will start up on the first of April. If that is the case, don't you think they should mention what tournaments the player have won? What players he have beaten in those tournaments? Because 3 ladder games where he beet some really good players just are not enough. The post should be so that we, who don't know who it is can get to know him, and the team, not so that the few people who know who he is can say congratulations on joining a new started team.
Again please tell me what actual tournaments he have won and who he beat to win them. Then I can start to be impressed.

Doesn't mean he is "unknown". He might be no superstar, but he's very known to me and a lot of other EU players.

By "do your homework" he means open the fucking Liquipedia, type "elvis" and see what he has accomplished, and then post. It's not that hard and it helps you from looking like an idiot coming to a thread asking "who joined who?" like a smartass.

I didn't ask “who joined who”. I asked was more of “what is this team, with only one person on the roster who is fairly unknown EVEN if he have won a few weekly cups, that introduce the player the pick up the same way a established team announces the pick up of a known player and expect us to not question the team, player and thread.” It should be the teams responsibility to present the players. Not our responsibility to find out who the players are.
What I'm saying is that the op should present his most outstanding achievements to present the player. And their website/twitter/face-book that they link to should have even more information if you are curious. Only if we are really curious should we need to go to liquipedia and search for our self. Hell, why don't the OP link to his liquipedia? There are no reason why not, right?

Seriously, if you don't know him it just takes 5 clicks to get to his liquipedia page. Bashing him for not being a big name is not cool, like you said you don't even know him; He happens to be a very good player and ff you truly follow the scene he shouldn't be a complete nonamer.

Congrats to ELVIS, very nice guy and very good player!
|
He was really upcoming. He was getting "decent" results in offline tournaments as far as I can remember (in the Benelux), but you could see his potential.
Hope he does very well in his stay with this new team and grow fast as a player.
Good luck!

GL to both player and team

Gl to the new team and to Elvis, a very good player who started silver in this game !

"A new team made a thread to announce a new player, that's outrageous since I don't know who they are." You can't be serious. You're questioning the purpose of the thread without even knowing who the player is, can't you see how ridiculous is that? And on top of that, what do you exactly propose to new teams to do in order to put their name out there? Not posting a thread in the biggest SC2 website in the world?
Yes, it's the team's responsibility to present the players, but if you go to the thread to say "who the fuck is this guy" you could at least try to click on the right-side bar, type "elvis" under the Liquipedia tab and find out who he is. Contrary to what you may think, you don't need to type your stream of consciousness in every thread you read nor do people care to read what you're thinking at that specific moment. In other words, think before you post.
Btw, I'm not sure you noticed all the people in teams that came here to say how good ELVIS is. Makes you wonder who's at fault here.

Who are you to tell a team what information they should/shouldn't post when making a thread like this? You're a nobody.
If you don't like it, don't post in it.

Don't know the player nor the team.

Elvis hwaiting ! gl to you and your team !
As many has stated, Elvis is already a very good player and has the potential to blossom at the top level. He's now going to dedicate himself fully to the game what he couldn't do before and with the support of a new team, I'm very interested to see his evolution in the pro scene.
To those who haven't heard of him before, now, obviously you have.

Not everyone is a Naniwa or a Huk you know. That's why not every player gets a fucking ridiculous thread announcing an announcement through teaser websites and bullshit sound files.

And people wonder why it's so hard to break in the SC2 scene... It's because people like you don't give a shit. Wow calm down. Please what they really want to know is why this unknown team picking up a unknown player deserve a thread while a lot of other good players, and more known players, change team and don't get a thread. Ofcourse if they arn't unkown please tell me their achivements and history. Because I sure can't find anything. Happy birthday, but still if you don't know him its not his problem? Doesn't mean he is "unknown". He might be no superstar, but he's very known to me and a lot of other EU players. I still remember when TaKe / me did cast him against Startale_Rainbow and he took the game very easily so.. he is always high ranked and has good tournament runs :x If you really think he's a noname, please do your homework first before writing its not worth an announcement. Do my homework? How much do you want me to do? I enter the thread and saw a team I have never heard of announcing a player I have never heard of. From the thread I saw I was not alone in this so instead of just saying "who joins what?" I decided too actually look up the teams website. And you know what? There was nothing about the team, and nothing about the players. This is the only page on the site. So much information! Neither the op nor the site say anything about their accomplishments. And no I don't mean beating pros on the ladder. That happens all the time. Sure it means he isn't a complete scrub, but it is not an accomplishment. Sure some people will know him I'm sure. But even if I have heard his name once and he have been casted a few times in some weekly cup, he is still a unknown. He isn't even close to Huk, Idra, Naniwa, White-ra. People who everyone can see "oh yeah they picked up him? I know what he can do and have done, cool". He IS unknown. He haven't won any major tournament, maybe some weekly or daily cups, maybe he is bigger in German, sure, but not internationally. What I really want to say is, that if you want to announce a player, with no major record, and your team don't have any record at all either, as you can see the team isn't even active yet. They say they will start up on the first of April. If that is the case, don't you think they should mention what tournaments the player have won? What players he have beaten in those tournaments? Because 3 ladder games where he beet some really good players just are not enough. The post should be so that we, who don't know who it is can get to know him, and the team, not so that the few people who know who he is can say congratulations on joining a new started team. Again please tell me what actual tournaments he have won and who he beat to win them. Then I can start to be impressed. By "do your homework" he means open the fucking Liquipedia, type "elvis" and see what he has accomplished, and then post. It's not that hard and it helps you from looking like an idiot coming to a thread asking "who joined who?" like a smartass.
From Liquidpedia and Wiki, he's just a dude who has been playing the game since beta and didn't play in any notable tournaments or has any notable results until now. imo, that fits the definition of unknown. Even some SEA players have more notable results than him.
Although I hate to say it, but this topic is nothing but pure advertisement imo. They should have gone with the old school announcement, which is accouncing new pro team, and the SC2 line up; instead they announce a relatively unknown players (oh come on, he's relatively unknown to most people who follow SC2, don't even try to deny that), and make it announcement of announcement of a new organization.....

I guess the news are pretty irrelevent for people from the American/SEA scene, but I personally think it's quite relevent for the European scene. He's been known as an up&coming player from france for quite some time now, and it's nice to know that he's got a team and he'll probably be able to attend more events.
And seriously, like 99.9% of the teams that post their new recruitmens on TL do it because of advertisment of their trademark and generating more hits on their website, not like it's a secret and nothing wrong with it either.

Every Frenchmen and Belgian knows ELVIS, and every European pro to an extent.
You may even have already seen him play while watching Kas or Stephano's stream as they meet often on the ladder.
I'm glad to see him make the next move and commit fully to SC 2 because he really has the potential to go far, I mean he got to top 50 GM while having a 40 hours/week job in another country.
Him and Feast know each other well and I'm really glad to see Belgian players stepping their game up.
Long live to the King of Drones :3

Oh wow a lot in people are being completely rude in here. If you can please tell me ( and a couple other people asking,) why should I care about this player or the team then please do tell. Otherwise dont act like assholes and get all knee-jerk "OMG SHOW SOME RESPECT U R A NOBODY" and tell me why we should show some respect instead of simply demanding it because he had a thread made about him.

Are you at all familiar with the rules on this site?

A little less conversation a little more action please! Gonna watch the replays :D
|
Wow, sickest pick-up, most likely one of the most talented players in the world right now!
|
You guys miss the point entirely. I'm not bashing him for not being known nor because he isn't good. I don't know him so I don't know his skill at all. And why should I not post in a thread that I disagree with? Because I shouldn't tell a new team how they can improve? Because you can take a lot of what I said as feedback. Sure I don't think they deserve a thread, but since it isn't closed TL think they do and I'm fine with it. Even so they could improve a lot on the OP. Because even if I know that I can take 10 seconds to look him up on Liquipedia, that is 10 seconds I should not have to spend. Call me lazy if you want, but it is a fact that the less work you have to do, the more inclined you are to read/do it. And if his accomplishments had been in the OP it would have been a better OP. And yes there are a few "people on teams" that know who he is but what does that have to do with anything? What does it prove? Nothing. Sure I'm a nobody in SC2, I have never said anything else, but so are 99% of TL so I'm in good company. Even if I'm a nobody though, my thoughts can still be relevant and something to consider. You maybe disagree with me, but that is no reason to be rude and tell me to get out.
I also still don't see how you can say he isn't unknown. He have won 2 weekly cups and 2 qualifiers to 2 smaller cups (French, Belgian, and Swiss players only), he do not have thousands of players watching his stream, nor has he participated in any larger event. Again I'm not bashing him, not everyone can be famous and he can be up and coming. But he is still unknown to the wast majority of the SC2 community.

Also, since Elvis is the King, and Kings of Starcraft are called bonjwas, does that mean that:
ELVIS is a BONJWA?

nice for elvis i guess eventhough i never heard of this team before...
hope he is even more motivated right now to do well
|
i know him, but i have to agree that you have to follow weekly cups and the european scene quite a lot to actually have heard of him because he didnt really do anything too special

advertisements in general are allowed if they are interesting for the community and not JUST benefit the advertised organisation
and this is clearly interesting for the community so i don't see any problem here...
if you don't care about the kinda b-level scene then just don't write in this thread because there are a lot of people that actually care about up and coming players not just the superstars
if we all were like you we would have 20 stars and they would quit one after another and eventually there will be nothing left of this community
but hey luckily there are other people around so we can keep going...
