OR EG and SK combine their sc2 teams under the tag: EG-SK.JYPRC. This is also why EG ended their partnership with SlayerS. Because they are teaming up with fellow steelseries sponsored and SK partners LG-IM. So we will be seeing this: LG-IM-EGSK.JYPRC | ||

If Stephano would had gone to any other team BUT EG we wouldn't had heard squat about it until the actual announcement. Now we have a freaking thread about this. The artificial hype created by EG for this is insane. I think however they shot themselves in the foot on this one though;the entities in SC2 right now that knows how to spin and market something to the community to this degree requires skill and there are very few, prolly GSL, MLG, Dreamhack, and EG are the only ones. So that its EG is quite obvious since no other team actually has the expertise or understanding on how to create hype of this kind. | ||

Everything that has happened (except for this new banner) has been community driven. Whichever team (lets say EG since all eyes are on them) is taking him in has done nothing to hype it up. | ||

The community did not tell the people at live on Three to talk about it and "freak out" at slasher. The community did not tell the EG crew to be so secretive about it. The community did not make the illusive banner for Stephano to put up. The Community is however the EG Hype machines little bitch from now on  They got us by the balls. | ||

The hype is all community driven, starting with Slasher and now with stuff on TIG. EG has done very little with the hype train. | ||

On topic: Isn't Stephano in the EG house right now? | ||
