They are comfortably the worst team in the league, so we can't realistically expect much else. It was unfortunate that Stork had to pick himself in the first round, but he made the team even worse by drafting poorly.
Disagree with this, even if it were true, they could've done better than the shit they are showing now. Stork basically gave up already before even drafting though, just because he had to pick himself (great confidence there). Then he gets Soulkey who is arguably the best player as a 2nd pick and he has lost all his games so far (well all his games being just 2 games, but still). I mean that doesn't help.
It's funny that the only one to win a match is ggaemo, who is not that terrible either tho. I mean I don't think this is purely a draft issue, that's just more of a poor excuse to justify the shitty performances they gave.

To show just how bad the Great Escape team is, let's add up each team's sponbbang player rankings. Not a perfect metric by any means, but far more accurate than the tiny sample size of the last two ASLs which they used for the draft. Lower score is better (for example, Flash is ranked #1 on sponbbang, so he gets 1 point):
Team Midas: 95 Team Piano: 105 Team FBH: 108 Team Pusan: 111 Team Iris: 116 Team Zeus: 124 Team GoRush: 126 Team Stork: 217
Again, not perfect, but hopefully you can see the problem here. After Soulkey and Stork, they don't have a single player in the top 50. If you still think they should be performing better, that's fine, but I can't overlook how disastrous the draft was.
I just can't believe afreeca took down eon's videos on youtube. Like no English stream was not enough, they also had to strike videos of people doing their job for free. What a bunch of $@#&$@

Didn't Stork and SK talk on the phone about picks? Anyway, I don't think the list says all that much and it's certainly no reason for them to have only won 1 game so far.
