Nice signing, Revival is a pretty underrated Zerg I would say. He hasn't had a major tournament win, but he has been more or less consistent at every event he's been to. These type of players seem to flourish in team leagues.

They've been missing a Korean Zerg and they like to pick up who they believe to be underrated and underperforming Koreans in hope that they'd reach their potential so I'd say it's a typical EG pickup, not too surprised seeing he's former teammates with JYP and Puma on TSL but I can't say I saw this coming.

Good luck to both parties, I'm a little sad as this sort a means no Demuslim in proleague.

Nice pick up!

Maybe EG's plan is to have soo many players that they can create sub teams and those sub teams will battle against each other. But then eventually those smaller teams will star aquiring more players and they themselves will form another sub group of teams. infinite regression

So... Stephano, JaeDong, Revival, EG-TL.... That might have been the Year of Liquid, but I think it's now EG rising...

They are the hardest working e-sports team, by a long way. Look at the EG Masters, stormville showmatch series, the amount of stream time its sponsors get, they amount of face time idra, incontrol get at a tournament. Sponsors pay premium for that kinda of exposure, and so they should!

They deserve all the success they have.

But also, this might probably (dont want to lean myself so far out of the window) mean that players like DeMusliM, maybe even IdrA and ThorZain may be put way behind the korean roster of EG.

In a few months, half of the sc2 players in the world, would have signed with EG if this continues...

Signing new players all the time but doesn't really win more/any big tournaments. Liquid only needs 1 player for that. I'am not impressed. They are just stacking huge names on top of each other, but apparently not gaining anything.

IdrA is like a money making machine for EG and it sponsors loved or hated by everyone so people like to watch him win or fail.
