Good to see EG get an up and comer as opposed to just sniping hot players. Also nice to see the lack of hype - just an announcement, no BS. This is a team who I want to support!

Dude, he's been around since sc2 beta and played BW, and has been x6's sc2 captain for years. How is he up and coming and how is this not a snipe?

People like to talk a lot of trash about EG, but this is a really classy pickup. They can sign almost anyone they want, and they're taking a risk by signing a relative unknown. It shows thay they're really looking out for new talent. They get points for putting an up and comer in a position to really succeed.

Obviously, grats to Suppy as well. This is a big step up (no offence to CheckSix) and a great opportunity.

Lets hope it proves to be a beneficial arrangement for both.

The Most Evil, The most Genius and absolutely the most Superior wolf of all time.
Congratulations Suppy.
I have been enjoying watching his play lately so being able to see it even more often will be great.

This is a pretty cool pick-up for EG. Congrats to Suppy and EG; this guy definitely has potential. This seems like a somewhat odd time to pick him up though--a lot of the summer events have already taken place and in a little over a month the school year starts. I wonder how this is going to affect Suppy's schooling (not that it is really any of my business ^^).

Holy shit, that's a long shot but if it ends up working out it'll pay off big. This and Fnatic picking up Harstem, never thought i'd see it lol. Congrats!

Congratulations SuperiorWolf!

Also people need to stop acting like EG has never picked up or tried to pick up a talent. I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to pick up Illusion prior to Vile being absorbed into Quantic. Illusion had mentioned that when he was fielding offers he wasn't sure about leaving his teammates and having to live in a team house.

Awesome, grats to Suppy! Nice to see a local bay area guy coming up. Well deserved, and like a lot of people have been saying, cool to see EG trying to foster newer talent.
