you must've not been around for old BW team hite SPARKYZ (yes, all caps + the z) or Pirates of Space (who ended up being Egosys POS).

KT FingerBoom!

I am still wondering who the Alliance is allied with or who in the alliance is allied with each other? I mean, Naniwa is on his own :s

Woot! Now lock Naniwa in a room with a bunch of Korean practice partners so he can come out and destroy every in his way to a WCS championship. Naniwa fighting!

There's this small company, you might've heard of them. They made this little game, moderately successful, one of the factions was called "The Alliance." Not sure what happened there, but i think it worked out okay.

Turd Burglers Club Ltd.

Seriously "Alliance" isn't so bad. Not awesome, but a safe and meaningful one.


^This exactly



oh man I can't stop thinking about WoW now. Damn you, damn you to hell!


I'm sorry man, keep fighting the good fight. You're not alone t.t

The alliance is a new name for EGTL obviously and Naniwa is their first dual rostered player.

I thought Idra and Huk would quit EG if Naniwa joined it. Were those not the wildly reported threats?

Why would EG spend money on another Dota2 team and another SC2 player (who won't even represent EG).

This business doesn't make sense to me... I feel like the EG thing might be a little off?

EDIT: affiliated maybe... but the people who say EG are going to buy them or something? I don't get the sense behind that.

I wonder if EG/TL are directly financing this project, because naniwa seems like a poor investment for both teams. It would make more sense if it's just a new project of (some of) their management without direct support.

Link? I've not seen any proof other than people constantly saying that's the case without anything to back it up. Nothing I've seen suggests that they'd be that opposed each other enough that they would give up their job for it.

People still talking about EG here and on reddit. EG's viral marketing with this announcement is a huge success and I think will keep people talking longer about EG than if they just released an announcement video. You guys have to admit, EG are geniuses when it comes to viral marketing cause EG is all people talk about regarding this announcement.

Idra also used to talk about how much he hated HuK and was so glad that he wasn't on EG..
