Cool for Ryung.

MMA is dead to me.

You hate everybody that receives an offer from a team, regardless whether they accept it or not? LOL

More like what MMA did to Boxer...

Exactly. Used to like MMA but he belongs on EG.

He's already friends with the EG team and he will be better paid, so why not. As I understand it EG takes care of its players really well so they have all the time to practice and not worry over logistics....now it is up to the players what to do with their time.
For Aiur!

Because Liquid picks up unknown talent, not two-time GSL champions


Sea is not unknown talent

Why is everyone surprised to see EG have this much money? Their sponsors are realllllllly good. EG has done a good job since the cs 1.6 days not buying into source to keep their sponsors and add new ones. Keep up the good work EG =]

I think no one here is surprised that EG has much dirty money. But it gets really lame and boring that EG just buys every good player. Although it's great for the players, it puts EG in the place of NY Yankees. And nobody likes the Yankees.


Yea, the billions of people wearing Yankees apparel would disagree with you. Would you rather have great players being forced into shitty teams like Blight Gaming? I for one am just glad that EG can keep proving people wrong and showing that it is possible to make Esports profitable if you know what you are doing.

Take into an account that I'm an ORIOLES fan and I can't even agree with that statement. The bigger you are, the more haters you'll have. Doesn't mean you aren't successful. In fact it probably means the exact opposite.

Join the team where you can enjoy, MMA.


Which one? Right now Axiom has Crank and Ryung(if Slasher is right, seems pretty damn likely), while EG has JYP and Puma. MMA practices with JYP and Puma nearly as much as the other two, and thanks them in interviews just as much if not more. EG is undoubtedly the bigger, more established, team that will provide more money.

If EG gets MMA I wouldn't be surprised if they looked to get some type of house in Korea. Three Koreans and Huk that live in Korea full time, with Stephano visiting quite often, and Idra every now and than(might be more frequent, perhaps permanent if they had a proper house).

Yeah Liquid makes hipster picks. MMA is not a hipster pick.

No they don't. The only good example of unknown talent they picked up would be Hero.

Hero? He was always known for being really really good. If you're going to pick a single person, I'd say Zenio. But given what we've seen from him (ever?), there's not much talent there.

Going by what Zenio has done since he joined, that is (nothing). He may be quite good, but it hasn't been proved in tournaments.
Refer to my post.

Why would Liquid want a washed up, moneyhungry player? I really do not understand why any "top tier" team would want MMA.

I hope Axiom picks up Ryung. I think potential wise he is one of the best terrans you can get. I also feel his style translates great for foreigner tournys format. MMA at this point is not worth his market value for a smaller team like Axiom.
They could get better and more talent instead of MMA.

On a positive note, I'm glad these two have team offers/acceptances so quickly, especially after the final SlayerS fiasco. While I love Axiom as a new team, either EG or Axiom would be a fine choice for MMA, as pointed out in terms of friends/management competence/finances. I think if I were MMA I'd go to EG; I like Axiom a lot more than EG, but EG is just more stable. At the very least MMA will have a cool retirement fund .

Ugghh. I didn't think today could get worse.


I really dont understand you people.

How is it worse if they are searching for new teams and EG or Axiom might be the ones they join?

Second thing I dont understand is the EG hate, fuck me right?


People hate dat dirty moneyz.


Don't understand the hate on "dirty money" like if Alex Garfield was a drug dealer yeah call it dirty money, but he has worked hard to get where he is now to get all those sponsors and etc.

I just want to see Teamliquid and EG join together and win GSTL to be honest, i think the ratings would go thru the roof if that happened


But how can he dare making money off esports .. it's disgusting tbh


I don't know if this is sarcasm or not.. But EG has been in esports for such a long time.. He *alex garfield* deserves everything what he is gaining now. I remember still watching EG back in the days, they were just a Canadian based team and when i see them now i get happy from what they achieve.

Most old school teams die out like Team3d, JAX, oGs from not knowing how to market there team, and make money. It is the whole point of having a team is to make money and he has done a good job at doing it.

From a fan from back in the days i am proud of being a EG fan from the beginning to now. And making money off esports is disgusting...? hmm its like working at your job and taking salary is disgusting, hard work pays off.

Name recognition + potential of him getting better again. Although hes been kind of mediocre in the GSL lately so...
