JYP is a way better pick up then Killer. I feel JYP has more potential than Killer does. Killer is closer to his max potential if you ask me. While JYP does some really good things, but his v T is horrible. That is something that should be correctable with some training with Huk/slayers.

Can you list some sources regarding CS/coL/EG situation the either here or maybe through PM.
EG is easily my favorite team and reading about their history won't change my opinion of them, but I would still like to read about it.
Also, I couldn't disagree with you more on the whole "EG was a no-team team" and bought their way to success. How do you think any form of business works? The rich get richer for a reason. There's no reason to hate the players (team management), hate the game (business). Starting up a team is always difficult, if you have the ability to attain the resources necessary to improve, then the more power to you.

I agree that the koreans might be better but both Idra and Huk did well in the GSL, and Huk actually qualified through to GSL Code S, and Idra was very consistent in Code S as well (before weird decision to move to the States, and now returning)

I'll google it and PM some links, it's not really that hard to believe though.

Yeah I dislike them, so what? No I don't stalk them... Sorry I used to play CS and pay attention to the scene. How is it stalking if one day you notice that the whole squad is under a new tag? And then the stories came out.

Do you hate FXO for attaining fOu then? or just EG... what does EG 1.6 team have to do with them signing JYP... Also it's not like they "stole" him or something he was teamless. They are just signing rising star who has no team, very smart imo.

So a no name team with absolute no reputation managed to scrape up the fundings to buy a team with "fame"? And if EG made money form the former coL team, why didn't Complexity make that money first?
"Having money" is BS. EG is one of, if not the best team at making money from eSports. In an industry where every cent of your funding comes from advertising and corporate sponsorship, EG has some of the best people at creating those deals.
If the other teams have less money, it's because they're doing a worse job at promoting themselves.

EG really should release some players in the rooster now.. Clearly a A and B-team situation going on.

If EG feels like their less skilled players are holding them back, then sure, make cuts. But i dont see that with EG. They seem to be able to add players when they want. And i dont think any other team would support those players better than EG is now. Its a win win situation.

|
You really can't have a team of all superstars though. A team has to have its stars and its b-team players. The b-team players still help the team by plugging it in smaller tournaments and being practice partners.
|
doesn't Slayers have 20 players and also a A and B-Team? And also other Teams have more players than EG. EG has only 9-10. I really don't see why they should kick some players.
|
very cool, well be looking after his name on the gsl-standings! (just realized how incredibly much i love EG!)
|
Glad to see JYP getting a new team! He is a sick player and I cant believe he was teamless for so long!!!

Yeah i agree with you jmbthirteen, as long as its possible for EG to have all these players they should keep them. Its only good both for the scene and for the "lesser" players

silly how people think that as soon as someone doesn't perform really well he should be kicked from a team. teams shouldn't just have 3 people who are flying around winning stuff, they need players who have a lot of fans, players who are great practice partners, those who are creative, etc.etc. Just look at korean teams (especially in BW) how many players do they have. +we don't know how they feel about each other and how much do they earn etc.etc. so it's silly to even talk about it.

Cant wait to see him in HSC4, looks like he is ready to bring the pain!

EG was pretty much known for never going deep in the bracket... Bl00dsh0t was good, no doubt about it, but still, the EG team wasn't really all that impressive...
