EG with the "If you can't beat them, buy them" strategy.

Yes! Padding with Korean practice and tournament filler in anticipation for ProLeague. Gogo EGTL, make a splash.

I thought my friend was kidding when he said he joined EG. He said Revival joined MVP but it sounded like EG so I said "EG?" and he said yeah and I said no way and so he said "MVP". But it really is EG, whoa ho ho!

Congratulations, Revival is a beast! EG Fighting!

Is he going to play in Proleague? if so, is he eligible right away or will he have to wait until round 2?

I hope he doesnt take away Sea's playing time, he needs to get my points

He has to wait until January.

I think EG wants to compete with Startale for most players. I think they are almost there in terms of active roster size.

Kind of weird pick-up for EG. I don't really think RevivaL brings or offers much to them. I guess it gives them depth in Korea, and he is already close with JYP and PuMa.

EG has a coaching staff?

Edit: I've been told that EG did add a coach, although not too long ago. The foreigners are doing things right!

It's unfortunate that Revival isn't very good at Starcraft 2. I assume that he'll at least be able to get to the studio, and is unlikely to use Twitter to shit on his own team.

Congratulations, EG.

I feel like EG is going to become an unstoppable juggernaut. What happens when they own all the players and win all the tournaments because they've bought all the korean players? Is that even possible? I wonder how much money EG has at their disposal compared to the korean teams.

i dont think its like "hey zerg always win lets only sign zerg" but rather "wow look at all the great players who are zerg that we can sign"


That's what I mean about it being short-sighted. It's never nice to bring up the 'patchzerg' thing, but a lot of these zergs are not going to do as well once Heart of the Swarm comes out.

Stephano, for example, is a no-brainer to sign. I'm not so sure about Revival, though. He's good, but hardly feels top-tier in these modern days. It seems like now would be a good time to try and recruit more top league terrans and protoss, just to make sure you're well-padded against balance shifts in Heart of the Swarm.

TSL, for example, could easily plummet into garbage league if Heart isn't kind to Zergs, or even if it just badly messes with a couple of the current strategies. You can never tell how well pros react to metagame shifts. Look at MMA
I'm not bad at Starcraft; I just think winning's rude.

EG isn't really a NA team if 5 out of 12 players are from NA. Sad that those 5 out of 12 NA players have next to zero results this year compared to other top NA teams. But I guess having foreign personalities and top level Koreans is considered NA now. I guess I'm just salty that NA teams don't have strict schedules in order to try to catch up.

That's exactly why he's a good sign. He likely didn't cost much, is already in Korea so costs even less to play in ProLeague, is already content to stay in Korea most of the time, and is a solid player that will add depth to the roster.

If you look at the current free agents list, there are literally zero non-zerg players that are as good as Revival that are likely as cheap. Most that can be compared in terms of skill have already been on foreign teams and have an inflated value, or have an inflated opinion of their own value.

After all this time we're still getting comments like this one? Is this just born out of bitterness or what?


People love to hate on whoever is at the top, simply because they're at the top.
