Thorzain is great but I'd prefer Stephano in GSL .Polt had his spot this GSL (him + Naniwa) and hasn't won any event since receiving the seed if I'm not mistaken. The two most likely scenarios are a) Thozain/Stephano for code S and [insert some other foreigner in korea here] for up/down b) Stephano/Winner of MLG Anaheim code S and Thozain up/down | ||

And mouz signed Thorzain after he started winning in TSL3, they didn't develop him. Naniwa joined coL and then Quantic while being a top foreigner. And pretty much every team out there is buying mid-level Korean players. Such is life - you aren't going to have ROOT-like stories anymore of teams developing together. | ||

I have nothing against EG, but these players in my mind don't fit the "spirit" of the team. What disturb me the most is when you read their declaration, the main reason they are going to EG is : Money. (which is totally understandable, but you can't blame me for not liking it; it would be the same if someone gave me money to hang out with some guys instead of my friends). Huk still hangs out mostly with Jinro, Haypro, Tlo and all the liquid guys. Thorzain and all Mouz members seemed to really be friendly. Sure to quote IdrA "Me and Huk are getting along quite nicely", but it is not a real friendship like he has with Liqyuid guys. I would have no problem with Stephano joining EG, because he is in there for the money and fits the personality; but Huk remains Liquid for many people, so will Thorzain remain Mouz in many people's heart. You think Taeja, Zenio and hero joined TL because they were big fans and to become friends with haypro? Lol... | ||

Lol... isnt one of the reasons zenio joined TL because he wanted to practice from home and not stay with OGS in their team house? TL allowed that, but apparently OGS didn't. | ||

Thorzain is great but I'd prefer Stephano in GSL .Polt already got his code s spot this current season. He is already in GSL. Stephano has been invited and there is another spot available. It could be Thorzains. | ||
