Funny video, but EG does feel a little bit to much like the yanks to me. I thank them for not signing my fav player to a ten year deal though (A-Rod). GL to Thor!

If I'm not fully informed, forgive me but... why doesn't EG try to actually cultivate some talent rather than just poaching players developed by other teams?

signing players who are free agents != poaching


Wait. Is that not what Incontrol, Machine and erm. Those other guys are?

what?

WHO CARES about when he got picked up by mouz sports... god damn teams pick up players all the fricking time nobody says anything besides these lil cry babies of fan boys

coL signs GanZi when he was in code S

like teams pick up players all the time.. these posters gotta grow up, if a player decides to go to another team and you dont want to cheer for him anymore.. well obivously you were never a fan and just a bandwagoner... I swear this SC2 community is more level headed then any other community i have EVER seen in my life, people act like this shit doesnt happen in real life, open your damn eyes and look at reality. ThorZain got an offer that would help him in his future, if you cant be happy for him then shut up and dont post retarded shit "yeah i aint no thorzain fan no more because he went to EG the NY Yankees of eSports"

Complexity is more known of the NY Yankees of eSports but most of you people are to nieve to even realize it, they just BOUGHT 3 korean players with NO results.

/venting


Not every single person on the planet shares your "I only care about money" attitude and although this might be reality doesn't mean it's great or everything people should strive for... but I guess most people really don't care about anything else than money... super sad story!

Please.

eSports is still very fragile and most players struggle to make a living.

This isn't "I only care about money", this is "I can't waste my youth playing games for nothing".


Agreed, i dont understand why people think "i would rather be the BEST in the world then make 100k a year" attitude "FAME" > "MONEY" learn to grow up. Money makes the world go around and they play to win money not to make you look up to them nor give them A+ status in the nerdy genre. Super Sad Story? thats real life get use to it i would rather be Alex Garfield the owner of EG then Huk why? because Alex Garfield makes more money simple as that open ur eyes children.

Ugh, there goes another top foreigner. EG is great and all, but they don't make players better. They just pick up people that are doing well, they do well for a bit then go on the decline. Idk, just not a very professional team overall... EG you can have the chill rooster and be a 'fan favorite' team if you want, where your players are players & entertainers, but please stop ruining the careers of top foreign players. Even if you have the money to get the players, you're hurting esports by ruining their career. We need them.

I know its normal for the players to pick the money but its still a fact that esports as a business won't grow unless foreign players are winning, and then EG won't grow. If you want to be a professional team ACT LIKE ONE, otherwise let the pros be. Kick out those shitty players and friends and put all your really really good guys together in a small house and make them practice a lot with no distraction. You need a coach, too. Not a friend or a foxy chick, an actual coach. There is a reason they exist in all other sports, they are useful.

I LIKE YOU EG BUT PICK IT UP COME ON.
Try another route paperboy.

Seriously?

I don't even. ThorZaIN himself said he was considering quitting and this EG deal is the reason he won't be. So, they just elongated ThorZaIN's career. Not to mention, how are they ruining careers by offering their players with arguably the best benefits possible? If anything EG is one of the few organizations making true professional gaming a reality.

Are you even thinking about what you write?

Thorzain/JYP/Puma/idra/demuslim/incontrol + Slayer house, all benefit from training with each other.

ruining really? really? Use your freaking brain man.

Coz obviously ThorZaiN retiring would have been the much better choice for eSports and foreigners.

Thorzain, huk, demuslim, idra, puma, jyp, incontrol, machine <- if the top tier huk/idra/thorzain besides huk go to korea they will become really good no matter what.

"even before I won Dreamhack Stockholm, I was contacted by Evil Geniuses"

eh, I'm skeptical about this. If that's the case I hope they increased their offer after Dreamhack. I have a feeling that InControl was personally involved in this transfer as he was in the event. Can't say I'm a big fan of EG, but always glad to see ThorZain continuing his career.
