I remember saying a couple of months ago that Stephano really felt like EG material.

Can he break the curse
of players getting worse
and playing rather dodgy
once joining EG?

The embodiment of the capitalistic whore has struck again... hello more money, good-bye tournament-wins... Maybe EG should host their teamleague in the xel'naga trial-format, so they can be supported to victory by the average stupid american fanboi <3

Since when did making $8k a month mean not winning big tournaments? Might want to source what you are saying or make a more compelling argument to make it more believable.

Wat?

You clearly have never made 8k a month or won a big tournament.

Why can't we have both?


Seriously, this whole EG curse thing is just plain stupid. The expectations for EG are just too damn high. Noboy complains when a Liquid member doesn't win the tourney ("mhm bad luck" et.c), but when a EG member loses, the whole TL site goes insane: "Another victim of the EG curse" etc.

Not surprised, but not necessarily disappointed, either. EG has a lot of good players (in theory, at least) and a team house. It's a good place for Stephano to get better at that isn't Korea.

It's x10 stronger than the Artosis Curse, even Tasteless knew to stay away from that shit.

I hope EG can go to Korea and play in GSTL. They have a pretty good lineup for that.

Cool.

Whether the number is right or not, it's nice to see a number regardless. Annoys me how they feel they need to hide everything.

No offense to Stephano or any one of his fans, but IMO he is overpaid. He hasn't set foot into the GSL and Korean scene, which is where the future of Starcraft 2, read elephants, reside.

Unless EG is planning an assault on Korea via Team house. Then locking down Stephano now and sending him to korea makes this a nice move and the 100k worth it.

the world is larger thank korea, the SC2 scene will start moving mroe and more away from Korea, Korea only had the draw of having the best of the best but once more stephanos pop out then they have nothing
