I am surprised at the number of people supportive of a guy who called you all shit heads basically. I wonder if the majority of you would have the same reaction if it was face to face instead of on the internet. He's the Ty Cobb of e-sports except he has no talent.
Thank you bureaucrats for all your hard work, your commitment to public service and public good is essential to the lives of so many. Also, for Pete's sake can we please get some gun control already, no need for hand guns and assault rifles for the public

What they actually do is beyond our understanding according to this thread. A hint: they're leveraging their premiere experience to monetize long-term synergy in an ever paradigm shifting eSports ecosystem.

I think it's probably a mistake that he turned down Alex Garfields offer to manage him for this. I understand that he probably wants to have a clean break but still...

eMG looks a lot like eG ... the M standing for Monster and we could be there!

On a serious note though, nice one, good company doing great stuff for tasteosis/tastosis/dont know how it's spelt.

nice for him, i would like to see him as a caster cuz as that he was always pleasant to listen to on the rare occasion he has done that stuff, mostly cuz he isnt in ragemode and talks normal, not his "ingame retarded" talk, from a knowledge point he would be one of the few casters u could trust in not talking complete nonsense

He was pretty clear on RealTalk that he loves his fans, and hates the fakes. Of course judging by your attitude I'm sure you don't care/keep up with any of this stuff enough and just took the shallow road and took the whole drama event from face value.

Then there is this possibility that eMG is not yet a viable sc2 business. That these players and casters didn't reach out to them for their services. That they bought big names to look attractive and legit in order to reach that viability.
I don't think that this scene is wealthy enough for real agency action. Teams do all that stuff and players who make the big bucks are just way too few (and by the looks of it now extinct outside of Korea).

I got all you other skeptics beaten. :D

Because he totally meant EVERYONE IN THE COMMUNITY and not just the obnoxious people

EDIT: I dunno, seems like you'd be the kind of person to feel butthurt about that

Many casters/figureheads would be considered that; JP, Day9, Husky, now Idra; they're all known names in the community who aren't players anymore. Being a personality is a great move for him I'd say, but I hope to see him cast more games he really was fantastic when casting ShoutCraft: America with TB!

But so much of his appeal comes from his abilities as a player.
