nah, wiz has been stepping it up lately, especially the last game against dig. I've never NEVER seen yellowpete carry a game.

That may be true, but look at Coast. Zion is the reason Coast turned around a terrible opening with 1 complete anchor and a bot lane who is impressively mediocre. Yellowpete and Krepo are no worse than Wiz and Daydreaming. Snoopeh is about as bad Nintendude, but Shiptur has played better than Pobelter consistently. One allstar player can definitely completely change the feel of a team and make them much stronger.

You're underestimating how important all the other players on SKT are imo. For example Bengi sets up so many of the kills for the team (iirc in the article I wrote for Worlds Review he sets up like 80+% of the early game kills and most of them aren't even mid lane kills).

You can't win alone in teamgames.
Even if you put Faker instead of Pobelter into EG, EG won't suddenly get 10 more victories ezpz.

I'm not sure if your watching the same games we just were. I know pobelter is everybodys darling and we must love and praise him etc. etc. but he hasn't done any carrying in a while.
Innox sometimes does well in lane (his lee games last week come to mind) but his impact on teamfights is soso at best. Today for example he didn't land a single critical spear and his decision to take tp on nida still boggles my mind, the poke better be there before the fights actually start...

Here's my rundown of EG's team:
innox - he's alright, sometimes he does decent but most of the time he's mediocre, still a new player so he has time to grow.
snoopeh - bad, like nintendudex levels of bad
pobelter - best on the team, has moments of brilliance, hopefully stays in LCS because he seems like he can shine with a good team.
yellowpete - nonexistant, any adc would be an upgrade, even zuna
krepo - makes some good plays once in a while, but gets caught a lot doing stupid shit
pobelter and possibly krepo/innox are the only ones playing on an lcs level atm.

One game is a fluke until proven otherwise.
