I don't think that Idra can really still be considered a 'strong' foreigner. He has produced no results for a while now.

I don't think LG-EG can be considered favorites in the PL, as it will be quite easy for other teams to research their replays and observe them streaming, and then develop a proper counters in the league games.

I think they built EG liquid up too much. sure they have a lot of great players. But the Kespa teams practice all the time with top top level people. They spend their time creating builds and such. I see no reason why it would be a Korean top 4. It probably will

When Hero, TaeJa and Stephano get there, it will be a different story.

They were missing their three best players. I had KT winning 4-1/4-0 with maybe JD taking their only win. Taeja and Hero will be the heart of the team if they want to be anywhere near the top of the league, and Jaedong will need to improve to give them a constant trio. Stephano is just an added piece/wild card when he ever makes guest appearances.

Just you wait, man. The monster is going to unleash any second now.

I don't get how Stephano can be on EG, but not be at probably the team's single biggest SC2 event.

I hope so but Taeja and Stephano are the teams "monsters" and Stephano isnt going to be there that much. Hero is only sporadically brilliant in my opinion. Cannot see the rest of the team winning many games.

Honestly it was a pretty optimistic move to put EGTL as rank 1 on the ranking, The lineup today was indeed a more "b-team-ish" line up with Zenio and JYP being perhaps the weakest players on EGTL, but no matter how good Taeja, HerO and Stephano plays they will give EGTL 3 wins, who is gonna win the last game? Those 3 players winning all their matches is an optimal situation, let alone them winning all the 3 matches against every team, and Stephano showing up to play. It`s really easy to post stuff like "who the hell wrote this?" after a 4-0 that didn't go in favor of the predictions though.

If the "B-teamer" of EGTL doesn't step their game up, the rest of the PL season will probably look like this. Regular season is not an all-kill format which I believe with players like Taeja and Stephano will perform well at. The BW pros will only get better as the time goes on and I don't see the same happening for players who have already been playing for 2 years plus.
