EG.Jaedong - Page 91

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.

Now let's test the EG Curse with Jaedong, nice news nevertheless.

Welcome, JD! LOVE YOU!


he plays for EG.... hence the EG.Jaedong title

edit, shoulnd´t it be EG.Jaedong.RC ?


You know what he means. Jaedong will play in the TL-EG Proleague partnership. Which is awesome.

His ties to TL is the only good thing about this.

Fuck eg. Don't get me wrong its an amazing pick up for them and still pretty unbelievable. But Fuck eg lol

Did you stop counting their tournament wins and high/decent placements when you started hating them?

it's quite hilarious that people only hype JD right now when he's being loaned to EG

jesus, he was being hyped FOUR years ago
There is no such thing is "e-sports". There is Brood War, and then there is crap for nerds.

Question: As amazing as this is for Foreigners and Team EG..does this say something about the state of Starcraft in Korea? I really feel like this news is worrying, because top Kespa players make so much money..and while I'm sure the bankroll of Jaedong from EG will be quite large, I don't see one of Kespa's most popular players going to a foreign team a good sign for how Sc2 is doing for Korea. With LoL dominating there, it looks troublesome that the most sought after Korean players are seeking outside opportunities. It is one thing to see this from ESF players because they often lack sponsors (minus LG-IM), but for Kespa teams its something different. Am I way off the mark here? Or do we just don't care bc Jaedong is on EG :D


As previously stated team 8 has no real sponsor right now and Jaedong sureley gets a pretty big salary. If you read carefully Jaedong is only leased to EG for a year. This is good for everyone involved cause Jaedong gets his salary and gets to go to foreign events, EG gets Jaedong and Team 8 doesn't have to pay JDs salary for a year and hopefully is able to land some sponsors.
As far as I understand, EG has no option to extend the contract and neither does JD unless team 8 (read Kespa) is willing to let him go.


Problem for Team 8 is that Jaedong will be playing for other team the whole year. While Team 8 doesn't have to pay Jaedong's salary, what sponsors would like to sponsor a team that's star and "face" is playing for another one?

After the year has ended, if Jaedong still wants to continue with EG and EG want's to keep Jaedong, but Kespa won't "allow it", i'm sure Jaedong can always leave Kespa and move on.

That would be illegal sir. Did you forget that laws exist in Korea too? If he's bonded by contract, he either has to pay a big fine for breaking it or worse.

When they opened a Korean team house and got a Korean coach?

Of course it is. But no one said anything about extending contracts and whatnot. You either pay to leave or you wait till the contract is over. Still, Kespa isn't the only option there is.
