I'm thinking (mostly hoping though) that EG-TL will do way not as bad this time! As things settle with coach park and all the practice for some of their players in WCS Murica I think they are in better shape this round. EG-TL Fighting!

Playoffs for EG-TL is unrealistic, I'd say let's settle for not finishing last.

While still impossible, I think you overstated what is necessary for EGTL to make the playoffs. If all of the wins happen as you say, then they have a better record so they didn't need every single win to be 4-0 (since mapscore won't matter). I think it's just EGTL wins every match, team 8 wins every match, ...

Out of curiosity does anyone think EGTL will be in proleague next year?

Yes I think so.

I really hope so. I still think they have a lot more potential than people might think. If Taeja never had his wrist issues I bet they would be in contention for 4th place. He tied for wins when he started having issues and Hero has shown to be a solid PL player as well. Though to be fair the WCS system will make matches hard because of travel for any ro16 or farther matches.


In addition, as a discussion thread (by Wax or Fionn I believe) in the sc2 general had raised: EG will most likely have some spending without Stephano and Idra come the next round. So there's a good chance that they'll get some boost in power come the draft. Even if it was another Code A-ish KR player or 2 it would be a big buff.

That said, I agree with the concept that if Taeja had maintained they'd be doing better. With Jaedong not being a killer, they're sort of in need of a super ace.

I really hope they stick with it. Especially if they can add 1-2 more solid players. Honestly right now I feel like they are just missing that solid ace player which Taeja would fit perfectly in. Just imagine if he had been healthy the whole season there is a good chance he would be top 5 in kills. That would be a huge boost for their team.

[With 4 of their available players out of the country and their own Coach resigning them to 6th place at best, things were looking grim for our foreigner heroes.



"Foreigner heroes"? Really? 20 out of 191 games played by EGTL have been by foreigners. The coaches are Korean. 8 players are Korean (9 before Puma left) compared to 4 foreigners. And the only people left to play this week when so many were away were Korean.

I think you should assess the situation and realize EGTL can't really be called "foreigner heroes."

EGTL fanboy optimism is strong in this article. I am looking forward to the Kespa teams (aka the elephants) to shatter this delusion. =P

Yeah ofc they will as a large amount of the foreign viewers come from EG-TL being there so by removing them they'd just lose money.

The question is if EG-TL will want to stick around. I also think you're somewhat overestimating the impact EG-TL has on the monetary aspect of OGN/KeSPA/IEG.
