Would you be more or less sad if Thorzain just quit, which was his other option?

I was going to say "I can't believe what I'm reading", then I remembered I was on Team Liquid. Seriously, people throwing hate on EG for "signing everyone who's good"?

....

So you want them to sign a crap player no one's heard about? ThorZaiN gets to go to Korea. ThorZain gets paid better. ThorZain gets an opportunity that, if was not presented to him, would cause him to temporarily leave the scene. Who doesn't see this?!?

And shit, how many active players do they really have? JYP, Puma, IdrA, DeMusliM. I haven't seen or heard much from Machine or LzGaMeR competitively, and as some have noted HuK hasn't really been on the map since Code A.

Why would he join EG? The team has really been dying lately. None of the players are getting good results. Just look at HuK: he was so good on TL, but now he's failing. Same thing with Puma.


HuK yes. PuMa ???

Pre-EG Puma won NASL 1
Post-EG Puma won NASL 2, an IEM, and had some strong showings otherwise.

At no point has he ever qualified for GSL Code A.

Not sure how you think Puma's worse than before...


Except PuMa is Korean.

Kinda sad news, I liked him on mouz and also liked having a villain team in EG. Would have been ok with him on TL but I understand his decision even if he's about as evil as Sheth. I'll still root for him of course and imagine the irony if he wins the next edition of most evil genius. Maybe they can give him a crash course in BM..?

That said, the video was awesome! iNcontroL is great on camera.

Lycka till Marcus!

Wow really disappointed with
Thorzain. Oh look another player did well recently guess that means EG has to go buy him, really ruins the community that they have to have this mindless monopoly and oversaturation

If EG had enough money they would probably buy every pro player, then there would be no esports just stupid weekly inteam leagues like the " most evil genius"




Lol, Contract near expiration, Tzain considering education over playing pro for 1 more year, gets an offer from eg that will probably make it worth his time and a chance to train and compete in korea.

RUINS THE COMMUNITY

Nice video!

Yeah, people seem to not be reading the OP like they are supposed to. They see Thorzain to EG and auto assume that it was a poach because of results. Guess what? They contacted him before his Dreamhack win and Thorzain was debating on quitting, but EG gave him the money and opportunity to keep going.

As they say, haters gonna hate.

If I had best interest if ThorZain in mind, I would say EG offer was bad for him. He should have quit SC2 as quickly as possible and go back to school. But my opinion is based purely on this move ruining my favourite team. And of course on my eternal hatred for everything related to EG.

Get him a code S seed gom

Stephano and Polt already have those 2 "lucky" spots for next GSL. 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.


Also, Polt is already in the GSL for Season 3; he's slated to play in the Up&Down matches at the start of the season, so he could still make Code S on merit. He doesn't need a seed.

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


If the "offseason" gaps for GSL stay the same, there won't be enough time to factor Anaheim into Code S seeding decisions. However, Spring Arena 2 might have some impact, in the unlikely event that it's won by a Code B Korean or foreigner.

What does that have to do with the original post (which claims Puma got worse after signing with EG)?

EG just got twice as awesome! I'm pretty stunned by this, such a major move! I love EG and I never really followed Thorzains previous team so this is amazing news!

It's funny when you look back to last year before they signed Huk. There roster wasn't good at all. Then they bought out Huk, then Puma, JYP. Now Thorzain rofl. I hope the EG curse doesn't strike my favorite foreign terran. Money is power though, can't deny it. Hopefully Thorzain takes the opportunity to go back to Korea though to actually get good training.

Pretty sure Puma joined EG before Huk.
