They do? Please line it up for me.


EG - Axslav, Demuslim, Idra, Incontrol, Huk, Machine, Puma, StrifeCro, JYP

Liquid - Tyler, TLO, Jinro, Haypro, Ret, Sheth, Hero, Zenio

2011 1st Places
Liquid (3)
Ret Assembly Winter, Battle.net European Invitational
Hero - Dreamhack Winter
EG (7)
Idra - IPL 1, IEM China
Huk - Dreamhack Summer, MLG Orlando
Puma - NASL 1, 2, IEM Cologne

Technically HuK was on Liquid for DHS and Homestory Cup.


And Puma was on TSL for NASL1. Hence why EG picked him up.

You can't lineup it like that.

Liquid (1st places):
PokerIdol (TLO)
Assembly Winter (Ret)
Blizz EU Invitational (Ret)
DreamHack Summer (HuK)
HomeStoryCup III (HuK)
DreamHack Winter (HerO)

EG (1st places):
IPL Season 1 (IdrA)
IEM GamesCom (PuMa)
IEM China (IdrA)
Asus ROG (IdrA)
MLG Orlando (HuK)
NASL Season 2 (PuMa)

So EG and we are tried for the lead, but where one of the "major" titles you're bringing in is an online tournament. However this is very very close and not hugely in favor of EG

I think MVP (team) should be a nominee for best team. Other than that great writeup.

Do you think its fair to award results to players on teams when they weren't on that team :-) ?

I agreed with almost everything, but you meta-meta-biased yourselves out with the foreign team pick... You can't ever fully get rid of bias, just make a call and deal with the fallback.

Tal'Darim not even nominated for Map of the Year?

That was the map which revolutionized the game (well one of the 3), but it has been around for the longest, got onto the ladder, pretty balanced and has given us plenty of great games.

Sorry international team of the year wtf......, where was mouz, mouz outstrips both eg and tl as a team by a long shot, no team comes together in team leagues like mouz, no team comes even close to it, maybe less so as a group of individuals but thats blind bias not even nominating mouz.

I haven't calculated this but I would venture that as a team, TL has had more high placements than EG this year. TL seems to have more general depth when you look past the stars.

If we just look at the heavy-hitters, then yes I would agree EG has the better team.

Bahahahaaha. Well done.

I could argue about some of the winners, but everything is so well-written and is overall a great read.

Happy New Year!

I think TL feels like it flows better together, but EG I feel has a deeper depth of talent which pushes it higher as the overall 'better' team. But better in a general sense, they both have aspects that outweigh one another.

mouz is definitely one amazing team and that's nothing i want to take away from them. But the team leagues that has been in the past year, hasn't really been on the level of the 1on1 competitions that has been. What the reason exactly might have been for that, I can't really tell, but the money compared to effort hasn't been exactly worth it to value it higher than some of the biggest tournaments such as IPL and DreamHack (which they have collided with), so while it's been taken seriously and people have wanted to play to win, I still think there's a long way to go for these and I believe IGN will be bringing some stuff to the table very soon.

However mouz definitely lacks 1on1 competition wins and general attendance than other teams.
