EG.Jaedong - Page 63

Correction: Daily ESPORTS mistakenly reported earlier that Jaedong would return to Team Eight immediately should they find a sponsor. This was a misunderstanding; Jaedong's 1 year period with EG is binding.

One thing that comes to mind is that I can't imagine Jaedong is being paid what was considered a high level Kespa salary. EG is maybe the biggest eSports organization around right now, but I can't imagine they have 100k laying around to give to an unproven SC2 player. Who knows what Team 8 was able to pay him though, so maybe EG was able to give him a decent enough raise while also promising that Foreign Team experience that Korean players seem to covet so much? Regardless, having Jaedong in EG is undoubtedly good for SC2, especially if he's able to step up his game and really start to earn his Tyrant epithet again. This is also pretty good for cross promotion between the Kespa viewership and current SC2 community. Putting a huge name like Jaedong on a team like EG gives them a lot of name recognition.

Another thing that comes up is how reliant EG-TL is going to be on Koreans in the Proleague this year. Even if Jaedong hasn't shown he's as talented in SC2 as he was in Brood War quite yet, the other Koreans (specially the Liquid group) are a bunch of monsters who might carry the team to a championship against a Kespa league that is still coming to terms with the game. The actual foreigners who are coming along for the ride seem like an afterthought, even Stephano, who I'm not sure will perform that well in the Proleague format.

Does EG recognize that it is not cool to bundle ALL fan favourites?! Especially when the team is still that bad.

How times have changed. I hope Jaedong can realize his full potential in SC2. I don't even know if the game can handle him :/


I think Jaedong already realized his full potential until his downfall in 2010. He was never really the same Jaedong after that, and I really can't see him doing well in SC2, unfortunately.


Zerg WoL doesnt really fit him anyways, moving a big ball of slow units, was never his biggest skill, Zerg HoTS fits him much better with the buff speed to hydras, buff speed to ultras, buff speed to muta, is gonna be way better for him.

Funny how Sea didn't come up at all, especially when he said how himself and PuMa will have to carry because their experience of KeSPA lifestyle and Proleague. Did he miss that Sea went to TL?

They really need new shirts.


EG's Shirts are miles ahead of Team Liquid's shirts. Kind of disappointed that TL led us on in late 2011 saying they would change their uniforms sometime in 2012 and that has yet to come to fruition.

Made me a sad panda. =(

Maybe a hybrrid EG/TL uniform for Proleague is incoming? One can only wish. =D


I don't like either of their team shirts to be honest.

Only tl shirt I don't own lol. Heck they even had a contest for the designs and meh.

Huge name pick up for EG, this will bring in the sponsors for sure. In terms of results though, JD hasn't done much outside of the hybrid PL, he pretty much flopped out of the GSL.

I wonder how JD will adapt to SC2. I think Suppy will prove to be a great mentor. I know he is not the best Zerg on the team, but I feel he is a better teacher than say, Stephano or Idra.
I will not be poisoned by your bitterness

I don't like them either, they just look too normal and bland if you compare them with KeSPA uniforms. I hope EG-TL have a special SPL uniform because if they are gonna sit there at the bench with their original t-shirts in different shades of blue I will be sad panda. ^^
