For some reason I really loved him on Empire. One of my favorite players -- he will land on his feet, that's for certain.
Time held me green and dying though I sang in my chains like the sea.

No... no way. EG is the official kiss of death to any player's future success. Don't get me wrong, they monetize their business well, but they've yet to show any actual success, while smaller (well, not smaller, but less monetary) teams like Mouzsports, TL and Empire are actually getting sh*t done instead of just streaming and showing off their sponsor logos and pretending to be pro's, when the "pro" part of their job isn't a whole lot more than just a living billboard.

TL also advertises their sponsors very well on their player streams. Empire and Mouz do not (Empire has actually been doing better though, after watching Kas's stream they are advertising their sponsors pretty well). Empire may lose violet, but nothing is confirmed yet, but on the other hand, Mouz has lost alot of significant talent. Mouz is not a powerhouse team anymore after losing Thorzain and Morrow, arguably their 2 best players (although mana might be up there as well)

I'd be awed if anybody is surprised EG picks him up; it'd be an incredibly smart move for any team.

We'll see though.

lol, really? EG has tons of titles under their name; NASL, IPL1, several MLGs, several top4 MLG placings, IEM, ASUS ROG.

EG has tons of results, whether you like it or not

I kinda agree. They lost Nada. Killer has been doing very poorly. Plus, they dont have a strong zerg player. Now with their sweet new house, it would be good for everyone.

someone didn't watch EG MCSL this weekend

Just because he did well in a team league, it doesnt exclude the fact that he has been playing poorly on individual leagues.

I'd say that it would be an easy choice for Violet to move to EG as he usually stays in Texas anyways. Obviously the money will be good compared to any other team and he will gain even more popularity by joining EG, which violet really loves.

A frat house will aid Violet in taking his English language skills to the next level. ;-)

In all seriousness, I just hope Violet gets what he is worth. He took a gamble going West, it paid off in results, now hopefully it pays off in his income stream.

that kiss of death is just bandwagon shit =/. also that last part is bull, pretending to be pros? what do you mean pretending they do work but they arent getting results for their WHOLE team but that happens to a lot of teams. Mouz, TL, and Empire all have members that stick out as opposed to the rest of the team what makes them "pro" and not EG? All the teams youve mentioned stream and show their sponsors ._.)

If violet switches teams then i might have to change my team logo. He is amazing though and will have no problems finding a new team.

complexity would be the most obvious choice (given the location/money/players leaving). We'll see.

Made it out of his code s ro32 group = playing poorly? He's one of the top 16 players in the world currently.

Could see complexity pick him up to coincide with the acquisition of their new house.

Please not EG.
As long as it is other foreign team, Violet will continue to do well.
But not EG.
Play your best
