This is the new "VES Lineup"

Well I mean, they do have to live here. They're now an NA team. It's the same way Bloodwater, Bjergsen, and dexter are NA players now.

Yeah that's one way of looking at it, but i think it's wrong to say, that "VES would have been a free win" cause you have no uidea what they would have come out with, even if the brand name hadn't changed to EG.

game was over at picks/bans.
EG dares westrice to pick mundo and westrice's champion pool is so limited that he doesn't and instead goes to possibly the worst possible comfort pick considering EG's drafted team comp. letting ziggs through was a massive mistake, yet Arthelon gets Lissandra which is a mid laner that can punish Ziggs hard with lockdown/glacial path all-in and still gives up first blood in a solo fight.
robertxlee had minimal impact and while i love the 'stache, DTG's support on thresh looked like me in the TL noobleague.
the less said about brokenshard's performance the better.
DTG was on tilt after game two and the picks/bans in the next game was turrible. Credit to EG for playing so well and sticking to their gameplan, and all hail Pobelter new mid lane zerg bonjwa

No, absolutely not, lol.
If TSM, CLG or EG will do well because of MVP Performances by Bjergsen, Dexter, or the EG trio will obviously be EU showing their dominance on other scenes, those players won't magically become of NA heritage or NA soloqueue born and raised players.

What? NA players are NA players, so long as they live in NA, and play on NA server.
As far as anyone cares, EG is full NA now.

Bjergsen will almost certainly be NA All Star. He's an NA player.
Doesn't mean he isn't European but he's still an NA player. Calling EG an EU team or Bjergsen/dexeter EU players makes zero sense.

I think there's a difference between TSM taking Bjergsen, who they know quite well and has already played on their team multiple times, and Velocity just buying some Europeans to come over and take a spot in LCS. I'd feel a lot more pride in Bjerger King doing well than Velocity doing well (unless its gg Pobelter carry). Then again, I have that habit of being wickedly biased towards TSM

Especially because EG has always been an NA organization. Now they finally have done the full switch (?)

If EG's promotional games are any indication I think it'll be Innox and Pobelter doing most of the carrying. Krepo might help some too.

TIL, anyone not born in USA is not an Amurrikan. Seriously, there's a thing called dual citizenship.
