EG is signing both MC and Stephano. The blurred cloud on the right is a zergling and the hexagons that you pointed out are from the pylon's power field.


If they was signing MC, i doubt he would of bothered turning up to play in GSTL

but then people would be like, where is MC? it would give it away! EG is clearly signing MC because MC showed up for GSTL. its so obvious

LG-IM-EGJYPRC inc obviously.

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

Evil Geniuses and SK Gaming will never combine. That is crazy. Take a look back into eSports history before you think something like that would happen.

That is a bit of an exaggeration. He will be well off for his age though.

Yep, and everyone ignored it when I pointed out what crappy news reporting it is to rely on undisclosed sources like this. Herpaderp.

It's EG running its Hype machine, plain and simple. 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.

regarding player movement, it is completely standard to use undisclosed sources in professional sports. and its completely fine in esports as well.

Actually no, the community did not "leak" that Stephano was to go to EG. 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.

Yeah, because EG has hand their hands all over this. The hype is all community driven, starting with Slasher and now with stuff on TIG. EG has done very little with the hype train.

They're hyping it by not announcing it! Clever them. On topic: Isn't Stephano in the EG house right now?
