That is beyond cheap for the quality of the living space and use they get out of it. Realistically, 5 college students could rent that place at that price with entry level jobs. The house provides them with a number of uses, such as living space for players attending MLG from Korean, an international airport and media output. Considering it saves them the cost of hotel rooms and the man hours needed to book those hotel rooms, it is a net gain. It also saves EG money on salary for the US staff members, since they are providing cheap housing(they would need to pay them more to keep them on full time if the staff was renting). But I am with Grettin, the amateur business experts of TL get annoying and really should be clamped down on. They just spread miss information. It's silly basing your calculation on the 'minimum of 5 people', given that on average there are a lot more. | ||

I know, it is likely way more efficent than what I listed, but I decided to keep is low just to make the point. $36,000 a year is super cheap for any multi-resident house in almost any market. | ||

It's only "contradictory" because you're utterly failing at using an kind of critical thought. Why don't you think about what the term "ROI" means, and come back to us once you're willing to provide something reasonable to this thread? | ||

I do agree that they should have waited another season to see how PuMa handles HotS at tournaments. DeMuslim is one example of a player that's really starting to emerge very strong in HotS where he wasn't as good in WoL. Of course, that all does remain to be seen as more pros become accustomed to the game as a source of profit. | ||

If they're interested in buying a player that isn't necessarily a free agent then T8_Cure is a good up and coming player. And Kespa might be okay with Team 8 serving a role of fostering talent for other teams. I doubt that EG can really just go ahead and acquire any of the super good terrans from eSF, since those wouldn't be allowed to play for a while. As for the main good terrans from KeSPA, like Flash, Innovation, Baby. they did buy Jaedong, but that was before the start of the season and I don't know if KeSPA would be okay with this. This is all assuming they want a new terran player now that they only have Thorzain left (and Taeja from TL). | ||

I wonder what EG is gonna do with it's spare pile of money. Maybe Oz? It couldn't hurt their Proleague line-up. Maybe even CoCa or Puzzle if their play is still looking solid? | ||

If they release players that no longer perform the way they had in the beginning, then why don't they release idra, incontrol, huk , and all them? Just because Puma's a korean but he isn't as good as the other koreans they have to release him to get ANOTHER better korean? thats pretty dumb if u ask me.... release one of the baddie foreigners and sign a korean.... w/e im out Seriously, do people like you even bother thinking about anything you post? | ||

Sir scoots covered up the fact that moving ANYWHERE else, would cost a lot more... Plus Teams like SKT1, KT, Woongjin etc. Have small Villas that they live/sleep in. So Idk whats ur point. | ||
