DeMuslim, the British Terran and recent acquisition of Evil Geniuses, will be headed to South Korea in the foreseeable future. EG's management team revealed the exciting news today:
In a statement provided to ESFI World, Brandon Freytag, a member of the Evil Geniuses management team, revealed that the North American organisation approached mTw to buy Benjamin 'DeMusliM' Baker and that there are plans to send the young Briton to Korea.
"He's not just another European player - he's popular, well-spoken, marketable, and performs well," explained Freytag. "The only other player in Europe like him with this combination of skills is... Grubby."

Additionally, Freytag said that steps were being taken to set up a team house in Korea, a necessary step to becoming a full time team competing in the country at the highest level.
When asked if further roster additions were coming, Freytag did not rule out the possibility. The question remains: will EG be able to seriously compete in individual and team leagues in South Korea? It is difficult to know now but if significant additions of this caliber continue, it will be difficult to argue otherwise.
