I don't know how relations are between MMA and EG. They were practicing in SlayerS house for quite some time after all, so this will be interesting to see.

I'm not a huge fan of EG, but at least there will be a good chance of seeing MMA streaming from the lair???

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.


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.

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


I wouldn't lump him with the rest of us EG fans. Or with anyone. Don't get too carried away.

lol, i know right? Axiom's off to a great start and I hope that they continue to rise, but a comparison to EG is a little far fetched at this point.

Well, I'll be cheering for MMA wherever he ends up, in addition to Crank and Ryung, and I'm sure many EG fans feel very much the same.

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


Not playing for a week makes him washed up?


I've watched the big tournaments that were on for the last few months and didn't spot him; it was an honest question :D
He might have played some online tournament, I don't know ..

Having read the Slayers article, I'll be doing the opposite. As inspiring as their play can/has been, I can't cheer for players who show that level of (alleged) maturity.

How about actual professionals like kespa players, or champions who keep it real like MVP or Polt?

If you had read more than only the Slayers article, you'd know that holding people accountable based solely on the words of Jessica is a rash move. Sure, they might have acted poorly, perhaps in frustration. But there are two sides to every story, and until more is made clear, I'll support the players above all else.

I've made no judgment as who to believe or support yet (the whole drama is just too long to read right now), but I have to say that the "I'll support the players above all else" thing kinda weird, though understandable. Understandable because the players are who we watch and cheer for, they're the ones playing the game. But in situations like contracts and business and personal relations with managers and teams... do we really think that these kids (most of them are kids) really know what they are doing? Many don't really have the life experience to make educated and mature decisions, and I would not be surprised if many of them are still naive and gullible.

Not saying they are all crazy crazy fools, but players can and will make mistakes. At their ages, they are even more likely to make mistakes with their own lives and decisions.

Also, I'm no Jessica supporter, but everyone just keeps bandwagoning against her, it's pretty silly. She could be wrong, sure, but we don't really know what's happening behind the scenes so why do we all have to be so antagonistic towards her, the players, and each other?

I'm just going to support everyone and hope for good games until more info comes out.

Ilu, great post . Lots of people are being hypocritical by blindly siding against Jessica without getting her side first (p.s go eg )

The people that blindly lap it all up tend to post immediately. The people that wait for the other side of the story or more light to be shed tend to refrain from posting until they know more.

I don't think MMA will choose Axiom over EG...to much money on the line as we all know"money makes the world go round"sadly.
