The lineup announced includes two former World Cyber Games USA National Champions in

Geoff “iNcontroL” Robinson and

Dan “Nyoken” Eidson. Rounding out the rest of the squad are

Eric "G5" Rothmuller,

Jake "LzGaMeR" Winstead, and

Bryce "Machine" Bates. Managing the team will be a friend of GosuGamers and former editor here in Lucas “Colbi” Bigham.

Stuart Eden, general manager of EG has this to say:

"We are very excited to welcome this group of North America's top StarCraft talent to the organization. StarCraft has been one of the most prestigious eSports titles for a long time, and we are proud to be one of the few major North American organizations to be represented by players with such international acclaim. Furthermore, with the launch of StarCraft 2 on the horizon we are excited about the future possibilities of this team within our organization."

Team EG also posted up a short interview with Machine who is very upbeat about his new found sponsorship:

“How does it feel to join a sponsored organization? Is it a leap from what you're used to?

Machine: I have joined many "sponsored teams" before, but none of them actually went through with anything that they had promised; it seems that EG is much more organized and professional than any other, so I am excited about the change.”

Make sure you check out the rest of that interview along with the full announcement over at Evil Geniuses site. We at GosuGamers wish the best for the new team and our friends with this new opportunity.
