Think before you post. This should go without saying, there are so many people making absolutely idiotic comments in this thread. If you have nothing constructive to say, please don't say anything. | ||

Hey guys! On the 31st of August after the MLG weekend Stephano will be leaving Millenium therefore we will have to change fanpages. Facebook doesn't allow more than 1 namechange so a page has been created which you will all be able to join in a couple of days.Thanks for your support and hope to see you on it. | ||

EG is doing exactly what MYM and SK-Gaming did und what ultimately made the WC3-Scene collapse: They buy all the good players for sums nearly no other team can compete with, therefore driving up the price the players want as their salary and destroying all teams (both financially and with their in-game results) that don't have the funding that EG does. Also, I really began to like Millenium and I was looking forward to rooting for the Underdog (that still had chances to upset big teams) in the next big team-league. They did a great job helping good players to become top-tier (stephano, feast and, to maybe a lesser extent also Adelscott and Diestar) and they made some really great dicisions picking up players like ForGG, that are now just wrecking face and popular and promising players like Dragon. Now, when their roster begins to look really strong, EG comes and picks up Stephano, knowing that they can easily make him an offer Millenium can't match and Stephano can't refuse. It's also really sad, cuz we see how much Millenium tried to keep Stephano and how much they've invested in him. Of course, it's pretty stupid to blame either EG or Stephano, both are doing what they think is best for them, but I'm just not too fond of the situation and I can already see problems with that arise in the future. | ||

Pretty sure Thorzain supports the theory. He hasn't posted any results, and went out in first round of TSL4 when defending his title... | ||

And how the hell does 1 loss mean = you are done for ever? Holy shit is this thread full of double standards and crap. | ||
