How on earth is that an extremely poor choice? At worst it's a very small failed investment, at best it's a genius move, the risk is minimal and the reward could be anywhere from nothing to everything.

I don't see how you got to your opinion on the signing.

Yeah, let's give out the EG-Tag to any GM-player, because it is supercheap (well, they get just the tag, no money involved, ezpz) and may be a geniusmove, because the next ST_Life might be between those players!

Adding random players may in fact damage your brand... And xenocider is pretty much that, even at american level (which is already quite low) he is meaningless.
If they wanted to do smth good, they could have also given the money to the red cross... Would have been better PR.


When Mouz signed Heromarine, he was a similar case. a high masters/low GM player who was still meaningless. Talent does devop under the right conditions though and today he is at least a top10 Terran in EU (probably even between rank 5-8)

This is a little bit different, as Xenocider has been #1 GM on NA before. He's not exactly a nobody.

who are you again ? oh thats right no one


That's the point of an internet forum. Nobodies like him, you and me can express our thoughts.

Not really sure who this guy is, but I like EG picking up big names like JD along with up and comers. Nice to see them growing the industry on multiple fronts.

Awesome read! I'm pretty happy for both Libo and EG. That kid is pretty amazing seeing how he is only 15 and can compete with best of the best among the foreigner, and be able to compete with Koreans, while based at his own home. :D GL to EG and best of luck to Xenocider! I expect great things to come out of both for the remaining year! :D
