EG did what they could. They got some top level talent and crit is a proven captain and support player.

I'm rather skeptical this team will be amazing, but last season of dota certainly taught us to expect the unexpected.

I'm just glad they are still around as an org, there were some very unsettling rumors flying about.

RTC lol, it will never end, ever. but seriously, this looks really bad. only time we've seen universe play without ppd he was a disaster. cr1t's a great player and all but has he even ever captained a good team by now? i don't know dude, this has the potential to become demon's and bdiz' eg all over again lol. alrite they goot good players so maybe not as terrible but it doesn't look good at all. unless cr1t turns out to be some strategical genius, then they're fine.

I don't think Crit- has ever been a captain on any team that I'm aware of.

if they can stick together and actually work as a team in a cohesive union this might just work. Not sure if it will though :D

Individually thats some sick raw talent in this team, theres no question that their mechanical skill is top notch.

Lets see if they can get the drafting and ingame-coordination done, i guess thats where the coach comes in.

you guys can meme about artour (and he sorta deserves it) but acting like this EG team is more likely to fail than succeed?

like are some of you serious lol? being skeptical is one thing but this is still NA's best team by any reasonable guess

i love EG but i'm not down with this. fear retiring had class and grace - without peter, it's not EG anymore. he is what made EG into the powerhouse it was.

i fully believe that peter's leadership ingame is what made arteezy/fear/sumail/universe into the players they became. good luck to them, but this just feels like another version of a C9 roster

Losing your longtime godly carry player and then by far the best captain in the west for the last 2 years has gotta hurt.

Personally I like all the players on this roster so I'll probably be cheering for them and team NP. Only time will tell if they will actually work well together/have a solid captain/arteezy won't implode but just on pure talent this is easily one of the best teams in the world.

I anticipate this team being a disaster. Should make for some fun reading on Reddit I guess.

these are NA's best players. As far as being a team time will tell. They have no drafter, no captain, all are very quiet ingame, several huge egos. Yes it's more than likely they'll fail.

So the great watour cycle of life continues.

Strange about PPD, like he made EG relevant in dota2 again... than again maybe too much NaCl is bad for your health and he is better without it. Interesting times ahead (6 months tops before RTZ joins another team).
As a rule, men worry more about what they can't see than about what they can

I could see this working out really well. Or falling on its face. I don't see them having a middle ground. They will either win all the time or never win at all. The main problem I have is that I don't think Arteezy should be playing the carry hero. He's always been a better mid player in my eyes. He makes a lot of odd plays as a carry. On Secret with EE I think they had more of a problem with drafting and captaining more than ARTZ (who played pretty damn good at TI).

Also I dunno why EG would pick up Artz again.... he's joined and left the roster what? 4 times now in the past 2 years now ?

yea we're dead serious. na's best team doesn't say that much when the only relevant competition there consists of 1 or 2 teams. also if u look at this roster, none of them have any history captaining shit by now. except zai but that was a long time ago and didn't even do it for too long. but i guess we'll see how sumail and rtz teamfight and move without ppd.

i think the only one that's true about is universe

we'll have to see with sumail i guess but his skillset is pretty independent of captaining/strategy
