The fact that we don't know indicates that this guy is being secretive about who he is. If he actually was Hydra and didn't want to advertise that fact to the world, wouldn't he choose a different ID? =/ | ||

If he actually was Hydra and didn't want to advertise that fact to the world, wouldn't he choose a different ID? =/ It'll be interesting to know who it is though, considering the guy is sitting on a 32-7 ladder record. Probably some already established SC2 Zerg. | ||

I really think he understood it fine... I'm probably not going to ask again. I'm 99% sure he understood. EDIT: Adding this into my post since seemingly 70% of the people don't read past the first post. (No offense.) + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/QUit0.png) on that picture u asked "are you Hydra" to ForGG aka Raptor. You should have asked Hydra directly. | ||

They already have huge sponsors and enough money to actually pay all members a high salary. The question is whether the sponsors will stick around in that case. I don't think sc2 is able to produce nearly as good viewer ratings as bw can. Getting their brand out to the masses is obviously the main goal for any sponsor. Also, I highly doubt that's hydra. | ||

That makes me think that it could very well be the real Hydra. I've seen a few people say that it might be Leenock but I just can't imagine him doing something like this. That's what I was thinking. This guy is a pro caliber player. I imagine naming yourself after someone else including the team tag would be frowned upon if he is a pro or intending to become one. | ||

He does the 1-0 thing in the MLG replays as well. So I may look like a complete fool because I don't know how to use Sc2gears. I feel like this dosen't deserve it's own topic but here we go. xSDKx @dongwon8247 Are you playing StarCraft 2? dongwon8247 @xSDKx No~ So first, I asked Forgg to which he replied, no, that is not hydra. Sage had a similar response. I am completely sure this is not Hydra. However, I asked for a replay to compare it to and was told to compare it to Losira by 라푼젤(Rapunzel) (Credit goes to him) This is what I found ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/5RFSs.jpg) Hotkeys match but I am confused as to how sc2gears works. So please inform me if I am wrong. And if someone knows sc2gears, please inform me. | ||

A Korean team can easily get International Sponsors. Look how few results coL and Liquid deliver - and they have great sponsors. I bet EG gets more than all korean teams combined from their sponsors. SC2 will continue to grow into the international scene. Korea is only so big in sc because the international players are spread across the whole world, that makes a better version of GSL impossible. The korean economy is just not big enough. If SC2 growth alot more, Korea will no longer be the center of SC2 - because the money is in the west. | ||

Unless they are Trolling You never know.AriA is just an amateur BW player he could have beat Huk.Many ppl speculate AriA to be Jaedong but its not. This "Hydra" is probably a very high level smurf account zerg player. | ||

First of all, without even knowing the numbers, I can with confidence say that the amount sponsored to a team like Liquid` is peanuts compared to a team like Samsung Khan or CJ Entus. About getting viewers to see your brand... Not only is the entire sc2 audience much smaller than that of bw (big sc2 finals get ~60k viewers), but these viewers are also spread all over the world, and it's thus hard to focus both advertising and sponsor money. Korea has an awesome number of bw viewers packed into a very small area - making both advertising and brand sponsoring very easy. Sc2 is doing very well even outside korea, but it just doesn't compare to the bw proscene in terms of viewers, sponsor money and how organized this is through kespa. | ||
