Former OGS player Vines joining Team Empire, one of the best European teams!?

@marconofrio Dear Empire, you should've told VINES to not change his BNet name before you made it public.

Good find. If true good pick up hope to see more vines.
|
|
Really cool, sick protoss player! :D
|
If they were planning to make an official announcement about this...fail T.T But awesome! Hopefully it's true and Vines can start going to foreign events!

Good pickup if it's true. Vines is a really good up and comer and Empire desperately needs protoss.
|
EmpireVines, cool name.
Good pickup.
|
Another nail in the coffin for oGs x.x
|
Well if they won't reform as a group I hope to see more of the oGs boys on foreign teams, its a good chance for good teams to pick up great Korean players.

Pretty much this exactly. They've always been so terran heavy, a good protoss will be nice for them!
|
Sad for oGs, great for Empire.
|
Good for vines and empire. Empires protoss lineup should be strengthed alot with this pickup and vines gets a team which can offer him the chance to see some foreign tournements. hope more of the old ogs people gets picked up
|
Great for Vines, i love his stream, so it´s good that he is in a good team already again.
|
Very good pickup for Empire if true.
(Also why Clide not SlayerSClide?)
|
If it's true, Empire has certainly picked up a great Protoss. Vines has some great potential, and playing on Empire can really help his skills.
|
Empire has a great eye for talent, they constantly have the sickest pickups of players who aren't the most popular but super talented.
|
I still can't read his name as "Venus" instead of "Vines" for the life of me TT. Nevertheless he is a great protoss and should suit empire well.
|
for some reason this makes me more sad than happy....

Why would you read his name as Venus when its spelled Vines ? If he wanted to be called venus he should have named himself venus
|
A pity they were so quick to dismiss Welmu, he has really grown over the last couple of months. Oh well.
|
Glad for PENIS if it's true. oGs got killed by col and SK anyway, I hope they'll reform but if not I hope ex-oGs will survive this

He didn't want his name to be "Venus" that's just how it was pronounced. (and rather hilariously "penis" during the GSL)

Because he said his name is pronounced Venus.
How's your name pronounced? Rips? Ripes? Reaps? Ghoti?

Recent Broadcasts : Why don't we just fuck
Oh that frequency
|
really Sick pickup. with a Korean zerg and protoss, and a beastly Trio of foreign terrans, Empire is looking sick.
|
|
Kas, viOLet and Vines? Sick aces for each race. If this is true, looking forward to seeing Vines at more foreign tournaments, he absolutely destroys Korean GM every season.
|
Love his stream, his play seems so incredibly steady. Hope to see alot of him at foreign tournaments.
|
GL Vines, nice to see you have a good team.
|
Awesome lineup comin' out from Empire if this is true, Vines is really good!
|
Vines is in Up n Down so really great pickup by Empire!
|
Filthy lineup for Empire now. Terran line goes three deep and now have anchors at Z and P too. Inb4 EU dominance.
|
Very good for both Empire and VINES if this is true.
And I think I heard during Code A this season that he was actually going for Finesse a his name, but since korean does not have the "F"-sound, he thought this would be the next best thing :/
|
Millenium was still looking for a top terran. Is there gonna be MSupernova ? I don't think oGs will recover from this
|
This team is getting pretty damn good, they have some really solid players for all races now.

there's nothing to recover from., they disbanded already and have no plans of reforming because all the players decided to join foreign teams
|
True. There's not much left to recover from. Oh well, they were my favorite korean team back when.
|
Empire are getting a much more balanced roster if this is true :D
|
This guy will take many foreign tourneys.

|
BIG PICKUP!!! cant wait to see him in more euro tournaments!!!
|
RIP oGs ;_;
Though empire going strong and be one of the top european teams is great.
|
What's with all the sad/poor oGs.. there is no more oGs :[
|
Desrow just mentioned this on his stream while talking to someone, i thought he said "venus to empire" but this would make more sense.
|
best of luck to him, empires team looks sick
I pronounce my name "icecream"

What do you mean "but"? What he said was exactly correct.
|
Vines is incredible! Him, Violet, and Kas will tear face in some team leagues hopefully!
