Well with that being said, I wonder what idra and incontrol's salaries are in comparison to PuMa? Or any of EG for that matter.

This has been answered, intelligently, about fifty-eight times before in this thread. I suggest you read at least one or two pages - you might learn something new.

People tend to exaggerate Puma's success. When Puma was dominating, it was back when there were very few Koreans playing in foreign tournaments; Puma was one of the firsts. It was natural that he would win a ton, he never did well in the korean scene (gsl, and more recently progleague). He started "declining" when he started to meet more koreans are foreign tournaments. Now, I'm not hating on him, he's a good guy, I like the various transition his hair has gone through, I'm an EG fan, etc etc - but I never saw him as "one of the best terrans at that time (whatever time anybody wants to refer to)"

He didn't do anything in BW. He accomplished far more in SC2, under a non-KeSPA team(s). So what's the logic behind thinking a KeSPA team would be a good place for him?

In terms of value, I would say idra and stephano are probably the one's who bring the most revenue for the team, based solely upon their exposure.

The worst part about this question is that the answer is rhetorical, or at least should be if you think about it for 2 minutes...



I'm not sure you know what your talking about. He defeated many Koreans in foreign tournaments, even when Koreans were going coming over in mass.

In NASL Season 1 Puma defeated Clide, aLive, MC, Squirtle and July. He beat HerO at NASL 2.

In two MLG apperances, he defeated Nada, Moonan, and Polt.

At ASUS ROG winter he defeated Lucky.

At IEM Cologne, he defeated MC.

At the IEM VI Championship he defeated Killer, Zenio, MMA, JYP, taking second place to MC.

At the IPL 4 Qualifiers he defeated Oz, Alicia, Noblesse and Symbol.


To say he was declining when he started to meet Koreans at foreign tournaments is just ignorant.

Which team Puma made results under is completely irrelevant. The reason all the B-teamers from BW who switched to SC2 early on dominated the scene is because they already had solid mechanics and general RTS game sense. It's not because they went from a KeSPA team to a non-KeSPA team, that's completely retarded. Basically he made the switch to SC2, had to leave his KeSPA team to do it, and became a great player for a while because of his BW experience. It takes a lot of work to even get on the B-team so he'd certainly do fine if he were in that environment again.

What? not only does he not stream as much as those two, he typically doesnt get as many viewers as those two either. Whats the basis for your argument here?
