Well it's debatable. He might've been better but he didn't have any results back then.

technically SK Gaming is a foreign team so wouldnt MC be the best ever pick up? at least in terms of prize money accrued


You're right. Easy to forget SK since it's a 1 man team

OK, I forgot MC. And Taeja is good, but MMA is a Double Champion.

Do you get that through Shoutcraft/other shows that you run, or is that through sponsorships, or is it something else entirely?


It's mostly because between myself and Husky we have about 1.5 million subscribers which is a huge audience. We have a substantial edge in this regard, when sponsors hear those kind of numbers, they want to get onboard.


If only sponsors were that stupid it would be a lot easier for teams to acquire them

I agree with you though. He'd definitely be up there as one of the biggest name koreans

Im not sure what you mean. Numbers is what sponsors are looking for unless they're in it for the goodwill

You shouldn´t judge him after listening to just one part of the story.

It´s easy to put someone in a bad position when he/she didn´t have the possility to defend himself/herself yet.

So we should all wait and see what MMA has to say about all this drama before judging any party. That´s the most intelligent and reasonable way of doing things.

If MMA joins EG, I think EG is the best team out there hands down!

LOL the amount of dramatization and hyperbole in this statement is ridiculous, made me laugh.

He's wearing an EG tag. He obviously wants MMA to go to his favourite team, thus having a reason for slagging off the other team in contention of signing MMA.

MMA seems so gullible that it makes me wonder if he'll at least read the contract.
I didn't see him play in quite a while now, how is he doing, isn't he a bit washed up ?:D

The article puts MMA in a pretty negative light. Based on the information given, I'm not sure I'd even want him on EG.


Am I missing something? The article in the OP was extremely sterile. All it said was they are in talks and he made good connections during SlayerS' time working with EG. I mean a lot of oGs players did the same with Liquid during their time together too. A normal reaction living and working together when you have similar interests I guess.

Also, EG already has a huge roster, but every time I say that, they still pick up more players, so whatever.

Well MMA is already cursed so going to EG might result in a reverse curse on him. If he has any loyalty to his former team mates Ryung and Crank he would go to Axiom. Going by the statements made about SlayerS disbanding he has a bad attitude so id guess he is going for the money over loyalty.

If EG fans are scared enough of us to lash out, we are doing something right.

I think he's talking about the "SlayerS to disband" article.

He sounded really unmotivated in that article, and whichever team he goes to, I hope that they are able to get him motivated and back to GSL champion form. I'd like to see a GSL win under a non-korean team, even if the player himself is korean.

I wouldn't lump him with the rest of us EG fans. Or with anyone. Don't get too carried away.
Like why do u use an oven instead of a fire? Coz its fucking better at cooking, that doesnt mean you want the shit to burn.

I'd rather see MMA joining Axiom to, but he will most likely join EG.
EG's terrans are already rather baller, but with EG's money it's not difficult to see where he will go to.

Nice to see both taking oppertunity's elsewhere, hoping Alicia will find a team aswell.
Grats to the Bains and Ryung.
