Dimaga is a wild card too; some days he plays just like any other strong foreigner, and other days he 2-0's Mvp and comes close to beating MKP in a BO5. It's hard to say whether or not he can compete with Koreans and that's a trait foreign teams are desperately looking for

If I was the manager of a mid-tier euro team, I would already have snatched him.

Stupid comments like this cracks me up everytime.
I suppose you wouldn't denied that F1 racing is much more demanding physically than SC2, in department of endurance, as well as reflexes. You need godly skill when racing through Monaco, or any other technical circuit, and yet drivers way past 30 can race successfully, more yet, they can even win championships (look at Schumacher).

So no, SC2 is not unwinnable for older players, only motivation, skill and training regime are deciding factor.

I think Dimaga would be a good fit for EG, or do they have too many Europeans already?

I keep saying. "Never underestimate stupidity on Team liquid" Thanks for proving my point

Wow thats a really smart quote you came up with there.
I wonder why its limited to TL though.

Dimaga could walk onto any EU team tomorrow if he wanted. He is not polarising, is well known and very popular. Like others have said, it's probably about $. Imagine that will be settled once we see WCS EU results and the pecking order in EU is set. I hope he gets onto a great team with a good practice regimen so we can see him tear up WCS. Awesome player.

Also, let's not forget he got fucked pretty badly by his previous team so I can understand if he wants some guarantees or waits for a more established team to make an offer.

Ukraine really has a lot of great players. It's like Sweden. I wonder why those countries seem to have more top players than more populous European countries like Russia and Germany.

Hmm. Actually this would make sense with IdrA no longer on EG.

He said in a interview after his WCS EU win that he was talking to teams, but didn't want to give details of course. I could see navi, the alliance, mouz potentially.

My friend told me this.
Kind of sad, Idra probably has legitimate mental problems. Someone mentioned that no other foreigner survived in a Korean BW gaming house for more than 6 months and Idra been there for 2-3 years, with no one that speaks English.

Getting a good contract and then making it official can be long.
Remember that even a guy like Polt took multiple month to finally reveal his new sponsor / team.

Pretty much. Remember back then when Nestea was one of the best Zerg players on the planet, and also had one of the, if not the best ZvZs, he was 10-0 then in GSL in ZvZ, against all other great Zerg players, and Dimaga was the first Zerg to take a game from him.
