I really hope the team will go Well! Can't wait to see some Idra vs Stephano training matches (since Stephano has already admitted that ZvZ is his weakest matchup) .

Good Luck Stephano , you really deserve to be in that team and ofc good luck in EG in general!


Except Barcelona didn't buy most of the players (at least the most important ones) as in the case of Messi, Xavi or Iniesta. It would be closer to Real Madrid. Ronaldo 96 is the Stephano of sc2, he is not the best but it's the best that can be bought (Koreans f.e.).

I can really respect a team that picks up unknown players who don't get to go to the big events to show their skill. Can't wait to see what this kid can do!

Messi cost Barcelona a massive amount in medical fees, housing his family and training staff personally for him. You're right though, Barca bring the majority of the Spanish National Team their squad through their youth academy which cost them millions to develop.

I always question if EG are even the best team, their list of achievements isn't vastly bigger than any other team, especially with their lackluster team league performance and the 3 sub 50% winrate players on their team, they had even more before they dropped Axslav (who then got better) and Strifecro. The EG curse is always funny to hear about cause guys like JWong and Ricky Ortiz just keep rolling in the tournament wins, it's not being on EG that stops you winning tournaments.

Of course if you look at the way they conduct their business, then they are the best team by miles (I'd say there was still a gap above TL, Fnatic and Dignitas). They have the best personalities, they market them the best and they provide their players with much more opportunities than other teams do which is how they manage to have this seemingly endless pool of cash. People are always going on about how they want eSports to be legitimate, teams have to market their players better than they do currently, you can't expect to have sponsors then not plug them and get their names out there and wonder why your team doesn't have as much money as EG.

I'm glad to see Stephano on a team that can give him the money he deserves. He's a natural talent and if the low practice hours are true, it just shows how much innate talent he has compared to the rest of the field.

I would be more impressed by EG if Incontrol wins a tourny than buying Stephano.

Soooo unexpected!

In other words, that video is truly the best player announcement so far.

They earned themselves enough publicity with this. The video was the cherry on top, thanks EG.

I guess money talks ...
But still that Stephano boy seems like an intelligent guy, hope he leaves as soon as his skill decreases or performance lowers.. unless he only cares about money ... -.-'

Wow did you know that Stephano has said all he wants to do in sc2 is make as much money as possible? Also if his skill decreases won't be because he joined EG lol...

I bet if you were offered 80k to join EG you would do it to. If you say no, I don't believe you.
When I think of something else, something will go here

It's funny that Scoots take credit for HuK winning MLG after joining EG.
