I feel it's incredibly dumb to point all the blame on 1 player. Does it take Cr1t to hop to the other team next year and perform better than EG to make you realise how dumb you guys are

Huh?? Source please (that Arteezy is part owner of EG).

sumail,fear,universe & zai also own a part of the team


Again, source please.

Doesn't actually state which players are owners. Just because it says player owned doesn't mean its all the players. I could be wrong though.

Did it take Arteezy to hop on another team then EG wins TI5 without him

Oh yeah, forgot he left EG last year and EG got third place as well.

It's pretty good honestly. It's a fantastic life skill. To know pain so well that it rolls off your back very quickly with no effort. I'm sure the Vikings will never win the Superbowl but my boys won TI5. I'm happy with that.

Obviously not all the blame is on one guy. I believe Arteezy is incapable of ever winning TI. Everyone on EG was underwhelming. You would have never thought that Sumail was anything special looking at his games these last 2 days.

That being said, when you are the "captain" or pseudo-captain, and your teams have gone 1-4 and 0-4 on TI main stage, its pretty fucking bad.

cr1t is probably going to be kicked, but let's be real: he was brought to EG because he was the nice guy, the anti-PPD. I don't see how he turns himself into a strong leader when the reason he's there in the first place is because he fits what the other players want. Hard to see how he develops the necessary authority in that environment.

I for one see that while Arteezy is not performing like a god carry, he's still doing what he's supposed to do most of the time - farm well. His improvement is in less mechanical things like decisionmaking in fights (he rarely goes all in for instance while on Lycan shapeshift which is kinda bad IMO since that's your strength), and more importantly that star sense to evade ganks (he has to be one of the easiest to gank carries nowadays).

Still, I would take him over Fear. Even TI5 Fear. You still really need that core position to be mechanically stellar.

I want a SADBOYS reunion. Not because I hate Crit in EG, I just think that they worked so well with PPD that it would be a shame to waste Sumail, Zai, and Artour's prime trying to adjust to a newbie captain. Crit can shine elsewhere. He can even be a better captain than Peter down the line. Just not now.

The Browns are always just pure garbage though. The Vikings have flashes of greatness and crash and burn every time. That makes it so much worse! Gary Anderson's missed field goal in 1998 when we were 15-1, literally the ONLY kick he missed the entire year. 12 men on the field. They take you to the edge of the promised land and then stab you in the gut and let you bleed out on the edge of that hill.

they would probably win 6 straight internationals. I imagine valve would veto the team formation because it would be unfair

lol EG.Puppey for crit would be the most mind-blowing roster change

here's a hot take boys: rtz to cloud9

[edit] btw to all the cr1t haters, if you watch the rtz interview with kaci (i'm doing it just now cause i missed it the first time), the way he captains (which I assume follows to drafts) is that all the other players okay the ideas.

If cr1t drafted WW twice, the team must have thought it was reasonable, likewise with the PL.

I sort of agree that ingame shotcalling with this kind of team dynamic can be really bad, especially if your team gets timid like EG felt against Empire today.
