As for the debut lol. 8k a month isn't bad for a Foreigner. Going to be a while before we see those figures in the ballpark of the top guns on the KeSPA teams.

Personally I'd like to see him step up his game. I don't think he's reached his full potential yet and has been playing very soft. It's scary thought as to what he can become if he really puts more effort into it.

Still no were near Flash's 450k a year but hey sc2 is still new. Considering what the guy has done with the halfassed approach and HotS on the horizon. Yeah, I don't think it's going to hurt him all that much. In fact, under their system I'd expect practically the same shit. It's just a question of how hard those other guys will work to pull ahead of the pack. HotS is going to give the creative players time to shine as well. I'm expecting a smaller leeway period though. | ||

8k a month is doing pretty fucking good when you factor in the costs of travel/food/living expenses he's making much more than 8k a month. | ||

Almost sounded like a jab to all those players who didn't earn shit in BW and now at least a few of them are making some coin in SC2 on Foreign teams. PuMa was a B-Team member. o; Honestly I could see more teams trying to pry a few more B-Teamers with a dollar dollar bill. There really is no need to be comparing him to Flash's range either lmao. | ||

They haven't pulled an Eclypsia or an AZK, they don't lack good players or personalities and they are pretty successful without turning cold and corporate.

Except, as discussed over and over again and shown by the actual statistics, this is just a huge exaggeration/ myth and not really different than all teams and players in general. Everyone has their ups and downs, and the EG players who were good before being on EG still generally continue to do well... they just don't win every single tournament (because that's not possible).

It was funny... scratch that it was in poor taste at first but now we're many pages in and you come here to post your 1 liner bullshit? Please go back to Reddit, it'd be nice to have posting quality here. I'm curious as to whether or not he will live in the EG house. User was warned for this post | ||
