What is with the EG hate? I totally understand if somebody prefer other teams, or cheer for other teams, but hating on them? To me they seem like the most successful at running a profitable team, but is that a bad thing? They create a lot of content (masters cup etc), their players give good and interesting interviews, all their players stream and commentate. Their players actually get proper salaries. Whats wrong with any of this. You haters should actually hope that more teams were as good as them at marketing themselves and their players. Don't you want to see your favourite players earn more money? Don't you want to see more content with your favourite players?
Take a very good team like Empire for example. They have awesome players, but they are not good at marketing themselves or their players. I wouldnt even know what their players looked like if it wasn't for the player pictures on Liquipedia and EGMC.
I am very happy to see Thorzain on EG, and I hope he thrives. My favourite foreign terran can go train with Slayers. |

This is one of the most shocking real life "player switching teams" type situation I could imagine :S
Where the heck did this come from? |

Foreigners fighting!
EG is getting pretty stacked now. Maybe we will see some better performance in general from foreigners since they are all teaming up. |

I have nothing against EG, but these players in my mind don't fit the "spirit" of the team. What disturb me the most is when you read their declaration, the main reason they are going to EG is : Money. (which is totally understandable, but you can't blame me for not liking it; it would be the same if someone gave me money to hang out with some guys instead of my friends). Huk still hangs out mostly with Jinro, Haypro, Tlo and all the liquid guys. Thorzain and all Mouz members seemed to really be friendly. Sure to quote IdrA "Me and Huk are getting along quite nicely", but it is not a real friendship like he has with Liquid guys. I would have no problem with Stephano joining EG, because he is in there for the money and fits the personality; but Huk remains Liquid for many people, so will Thorzain remain Mouz in many people's heart.
Yeah. 'Cause most pro players from any sport join the top ball clubs in the world because of their cousy lounges so they can all hang out. |

How is that any different? A lot of teams do that. Why wouldn't you want a strong player to reinforce your team roster? EG talked to him before his contract was up and give him details. ThorZaiN could have denied it when his contract with Mouz was over.Last edit: 2012-05-10 13:09:17 |

No you're supposed to buy shitty players and then develop them. I mean mouz bought Thorzain when he was a nobody right? |

I feel really bad for mouz as they were my favourite foreign team and ThorZaIN was such a key for them, but at the end of the day as a huge thorzain fanboy, if this is the best move for ThorZaIN and keeps him playing for that much longer, then I'm very happy!!
Hope he has a big year and good to see him go to Korea again and reunite with his buddies MMA and Ryung.
