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.

its the EG effect: sucks dick that players get to make money. BOO HOO. TEARS OF FUCKING SORROW that EG has the ability to offer money to people.

dont we all remember when Stephano was going to leave Mill for more money and then there was that whole bonanza of fun and drama... i guess its a fucking surprise that stephano wanted to leave

Every time a thread like this shows up about EG signing a player, rumors about player salaries seem to inevitably take over the discussion.

When I saw EGStephano for some reason I wished EG partnered with LGIM instead of SlayerS so it could be like EGLGIMMVP.SK lol

You forgot the RC part

. EGLGIMMvp.SKRC

You guys do realize that Stephano has earned over $150k!! in tourney winnings since IPL 3 last Oct 2011, just 10 short months ago. Only MC and MVP have made more. DRG about the same. MKP a fair bit behind and NO one else even remotely close. So what is he worth hmm??

Setting up a pro-gaming house where their players can constantly practice and bounce ideas off each other... hardly conducive to improving the players.

Providing players with a competitive salary and living arrangements so that they can concentrate entirely on improving their play... hardly conducive to improving the players.

Hiring a well respected sports psychologist to work on the mental aspect and strain on their players... hardly conducive to improving the players.

Paying for flights and arranging accommodation for their players to stay and train in Korea... hardly conducive to improving their players.

Flying large parts of their roster to compete in tons of events around the world... hardly conducive to improving their players.

Shall I continue, or do you want to reconsider that dumb post?

Has any player actually improved since joining EG? No, actually some of them seem to have gone backwards in the pro scene if anything. So maybe they are like the kids who get the Benz from their parents before they work hard in college, seems less of a reason for one to actually improve their standing.

Just look at the Korean scene, they have players you have not even heard of that can beat some of the best foreign players. Once EG sign players and actually improve them and get one or two to regularly sit in code s then you can come back to me legitimately and say my post is dumb. Until that point you are looking like some sort of sad virgin who only looks for posts for some pety sort of argument.

User was warned for this post

So you are actually going to argue that any of the points I made are not conducive to improving the play of their roster? Your post was dumb, this post is dumb, and the fact that you quickly resort to personal insults when you are called out is dumb.

You took my post way to literal. Point is EG have not improved any of their players, maybe there is a reason for that.... oh wait i guess that is dumb aswell.

What foreign teams have improved their players? Maybe you can answer that? All the relevant SC2 teams have gone the way of buying Koreans.

goswser, sheth, trimaster all come to mind.

sheth is okay but he doesnt win tournaments
and did you just name goswser and trimaster? LOL there both bad players and didnt trimaster go to korea? no results

holy shit? reality check? who are you btw? saying that goswser and trimaster is bad is just dumb really. What league are you diamond? what have i achieved? Second of all sheth isn't just "ok" so get it right next time before you post.

You mad? Truth hurts doesn't it? What has trimaster done in the past year instead of getting lucky beating IdrA and Jinro and same goes to Gowser what has he done? Nothing get 1st place in complexity academy? Which it's a joke of a tournament, players who all are in masters and try to become pro.

You want to bash me..? Try a little harder next time.. I go to school and i can bet i am more educated and will be more successful than you any day of the week.. And yeah Sheth is just "ok" what has he done?

Don't get mad, keep your day job.

edit - i also think its funny that your only argument is saying "sheth trimaster goswer are not bad okay thats just dumb" thanks for proving me wrong..

Holy shit, someone ban this fucker.

How is someone's day job any relevent to this argument? And this is coming from a douchebag that's been banned countless times (me), you disrespect twat.

Who gives a flying fuck about your education. Where the hell did that shit come from?

_fakeedit_ Rereading your comment made me realize that you are a gigantic fuckstick. "try harder next time;" "Don't get mad"? How old are you, 12? Your comment is an insult to the TL community.

Ah, quality posting going on in this thread.

ANYWAYS, not a fan of Stephano at all but hopefully he lands on a good team and has an enjoyable time. As much as I'm not a fan of EG, if he went there it will be hilarious reading all of the whining from people for a few days.

I believe that Stephano had sent a Twitter message to HasuObs (who is German) saying that he should go kill some Jews or something.

If someone could elaborate, that would be most helpful.

HasuObs called Stephano a terrorist. Stephano called HasuObs a nazi. They're good friend, and it was joking banter.

I wish team line ups actually meant something to me. I'm sure its nice for sponsors and fanboys and such, but at the end of the day the individuals in <Team X> winning things doesn't make me care about <Team X>. Short of a massive, structured team league where <Team X> and <Team Y> can build rivalries and look like more than just a bunch of individuals, i can't see my feelings on that changing.

Anyway grats to Stephano on "awesome salary" :D. It's nice to know that in a general sense there's money to be earned. Even if it is all coming from one team.

It was a joke between the two of them. It stemmed from a private conversation, and was not meant to be offensive, just ill conceived. The two are friends.

A year? I thought it was a month. Plus a 12 Million bonus for winning a tournament.
