To see EG's SC2 division do this is pretty cool since few RTS players do it. The reason is because CS teams primarily do it since it is a team game, so having all 5 players present is much better than practicing online. Yeah, I'd been surprised no one had really been doing this before going to a major LAN. It makes a lot of sense (and it's a sign the house won't be ready next week, LOL, but they're supposedly moving into the main house after MLG), especially for DeMuslim, as he'll be time adjusted. I'm going to take a hot guess they're driving over from AZ rather than flying, so I imagine most of the normal travel budget was actually available to do something like this. They're putting the guys up for a few extra days + food, so there is that cost, but I imagine the since the LAN is being sponsored by some of the companies EG works with, some of those costs got defrayed, or at least the daily cost of the LAN. Actually, that's probably going to be a solid draw for the LAN center, plus ensuring a bunch of Pros being there. All told, MLG Anaheim is looking to be insane in the Pool Play this time around. *Everyone* is stepping up their game. For as much as the "Korean Invasion" has been pretty fun, it's also really obvious that the Koreans are perfectly beatable, it's just a matter of putting in the work and training the responses. | ||

I'm just curious how close this training will get to how the Koreans train. It seems that method yields biggest results. I'm a huge EG fanboi. That's my team. I root for you guys. Stomp some nerds. | ||

I hope the week will help either way They are, back in AZ, but apparently it's not up yet. Incontrol mentioned he was moving in with Machine & Idra after NASL, but the house wouldn't be up & functional until after MLG? I think that was it. | ||

They are training, allowing a few fans to visit won't change that. God forbid they take a 30 minute break. | ||
