But I do feel kinda sorry for TSL, losing one of their best up and coming players after the losses of Fruitdealer and Trickster :-(

Here's the source: http://soundcloud.com/jcmoods/inc1 It was a leaked discussion before a show Inc and Idra used to do. I quote "It's a f**ing terrible game". | ||

Every single time idra plays a game you are in the live report thread bashing him even before any "fanboys" say anything.... It's like you have a obsession or something. Stop changing the topic, this is about puma. | ||

You have such little information in your brain about the incident but you come to such conclusions somehow?. I said if, or way to delete the rest of my post. I do not know for sure, but that is a distinct possibility and the person who I was quoting and many of the other people here are not taking that into consideration, or don't even know that Korean teams have contracts. | ||

That practice house in Sweden sure is doing wonders for TLO, Haypro, and crew, huh? I wonder why Naniwa wants to haul ass to Korea so fast, when he has such a great place. | ||

With those two, along with incontrol and a bit of improvement from Demuslim and Machine, this team could own the GSTL! How far removed from reality are you? | ||

He never said that Koreans are genetically superior at Starcraft. Quite the opposite. And it's well-documented that Korean training is what's needed to stay at the top. | ||

Wouldn't make the same generalizations as him but the reactions have been far more negative/much worse than the 50/50 split the in thread poll had. | ||

Good that Puma has excess to cash that will allow him to go to many more tournaments overseas then i think TSL would have been able to provide for plus he got a salary which I presume is better then old one. Bad in the way it was handled. I think things could have been handled a bit better but then again we have no idea what the circumstances surrounding it was. Maybe for some unknown reason they chose not to speak to the coach. But EG is one of the most professional teams out there so I hope for them the best. Just wondering how long it will be before more and more Korean players are head hunted by foreign teams. Also I think EG will be showing crazy results in the next few events (Idra, DeMuslim, Puma, Incontrol,LzGamer,etc just so much power). | ||

IdrA is doing quite well as well, I seriously don't see where all this hate comes from, not only that its not really sniping a player they asked puma and he said yes, so its HIS DECISION I just do not understand why people like you bother commenting, can you tell me which foreign team is having better results than EG in the 1 year of starcraft being released? and lets be serious here, while liquid may be a foreign team all their star players are on a Korean schedule in Korea so I would consider them Korean. Does IdrA hate the game? I don't remember him quoting that? do you have an inside source we should all know about? It's not even a decision between money and better practice. It's a decision between more money and less money. Starcraft 2 is a "get pro in your own garage" kind of game. A practice house only gives marginal benefit. It's not like your practice partners are going to be cutting all ties with you because you changed teams, everyone has practice partners on different teams anyway. | ||
