Isn't redbull's main competition for life CJ?

I remember reading rumors of CJ offering 200k+ for Life to sign with them...

plus, then they would have a cyclops, alien, and plant in the zerg lineup~

redbull is doing space missions with people jumping to earth from near space for marketing reasons... they could buy anyone if they wanted. Redbulls marketing budget is as high as a medium countries tax income.

Wasn't really a "space mission", it was a "ballon". The price is ridicoulously low compared to sending some in space.
But yeah I guess for redbull the marketting is a HUGE part of the budget, and they are quite good at it. And I do'nt really see why they would let go easily a highly marketable player from their roaster...

They have all displayed pretty high levels of skill in my opinion.
Furthermore the term "band aid player" is highly disrespectful regardless of your impression of how good they are.

This is just my personal preference, I much prefer objective journalism rather than shock value journalism, so it is entirely your choice





They are writers, not journalists :-)

Also, they are more like band aid players

hypothetically they could swallow flash's reported $250~300k contract if they don't renew Jaedong on top of stephano retiring, etc, but that rest of the team would be too expensive

Well you keep a lot of money if you are living in a team house and spend 90% of your time practicing.

. Taxable Income
Resident individuals are taxed on their worldwide income. Non-resident
individuals are taxed only on Korean-source income.
b. Global and Schedular Income Taxation
Income derived by residents and non-residents is subject to global and schedular
taxation. Under global taxation, business income, wages and salaries, pension
income, and other income are aggregated and taxed progressively. A combined
income of dividend and interest exceeding 40 million won is subject to global
taxation. Currently, interest and dividends are subject to withholding tax of 14
percent. Under schedular taxation, capital gains and retirement income are taxed
at varying tax rates.
* Other income includes the followings among others:
(1) Money or goods received from participation in a lottery, and any other
5
prize won in a contest
(2) Money or goods received as a prize in a lottery, drawing, or any other contest,
including the purse payable to the buyer of a winning ticket for horse racing,
cycle racing, motorboat racing,
bull fighting and sports betting game
(3) Money or goods for transfer or use of copyrighted materials received by any
person other than copyright holders.

I wouldn't be surprised if EG grabs one of the Woongjin stars aces (soulkey, sos or flying). They're bound to be worried given the unstable state of their sponsor and salaries.

i don't think any of those 3 are particularly marketable though. there are players with more hype etc that they can go for, like parting, bogus, or multiple non-kespa guys e.g. jjakji

Hopefully who ever they are recruiting is going to stay with coach Park. At this point i don't think that anyone side from Puma has managed to win a major tournament after being with EG for more than 3 months.

if innovation wins WCS S1, then he instantly becomes super marketable, but also a guy other kespa teams are willing pay 100~150k / year

Well, none of their korean picks so far have been more "marketable" than these three aside from JD and Oz. Also, they're probably disappointed with EG-TL's SPL performance and trying to pick a player who may not be as hyped up but can get results. EG must also realize by now that their SPL performance has a huge impact on their brand image. They must be embarrassed with how the team did last season. That's my hope anyways. It's impossible to really predict these kinds of matters. But I really don't think Parting or Innovation will go to EG. They have both improved in their current environments and produced results recently so their contracts will likely be renewed with a significant raise most likely.

It will be interesting, you can expect two good signings imo, with maybe 3 if HuK/ThorZain leave as they haven't got any results recently. Who knows ^_^

Would love to see some big names join in though, and well imagine Life in SPL (all be it EG in it next season)

i'm surprised no Prime players were mentioned in the OP. MKP, Creator or even Byun would be great pickups.
