Colbi can you please either ask the players to use skype/vent instead of in-game chat or do something to blur the chat area? It spoils the game as soon as you see one team speaking on allied chat because that chat is only saved if you upload the replay from their view.

So?
That's what being an Ace means.
Kiwikaki was the IdrA of ROOT for example
A lot of teams have one
Ya i would have to say most foreign teams have only one S class player, with the rest being a bunch of A and B teamers. Not enough foreign talent at the very top of the pool.
Not really, EG and ROOT seem to be the biggest offenders.
I think teams like Dignitas, Mouz and Empire (why aren't they in this league?!) have solid overall lineups.
Dignitas has naniwa and select
The other teams are European and have a bigger pool of talent too choose from.
If all the top Na teams put out their best players on one Team it would be basically Empire's level >_>
I wish we had more top players
Disagree completely, empire is a solid team, but not at the level of say dignitas & mouz, the top NA players would easily be a better team than them with players like Major, Idra & Kiwikaki.
Lol I bet even the Dignitas and mouz players would disagree with you. Everyone in europe has huge respect for the Empire guys. Yeah they are not at the big tournaments for various reasons, but that does not make them any less strong.

Yes Empire is good, but I think Major, Idra, Kiwi, HuK, Select, etc>>Happy, Nerchio, Kas, etc. Don't see how you could argue this
Based on what exactly? The fact you have no clue about how successful most of the empire guys are? Don't see how you can dismiss Happy, Nerchio and Kas by listing a handful of NA players that aren't performing well (apart from maybe idra 4th at mlg v not even in NASL finals).

Team Empire needs more exposure, that's their only problem. They have the roster, the talent and all that. We'll see how well they do at DH, either way I hope they attend more events and play more tournaments. They also deserve a spot in team league like this.

I agree, there's no way in hell Nerchio isn't equal to (probably better than) the likes of everyone you listed. MajOr is muchly up and coming and hasn't shown major (unintended) success, IdrA is an exception as he is likely the best foreigner but is weak minded, KiWi is performing badly, HuK is living in Korea and not in the same situation as foreign players, SeleCT is performing badly...
Empire players haven't been in these big LANs, but to say that they're not at the level of other European teams is a tad foolish.

Is this post serious? First of all, you list a bunch of players from different teams, and say that those players are better... we are talking about teams here. Saying that HasuObs, Stephano and Select (just as an example, as all of them are in this league) are better than Happy Nerchio and Kas isn't even relevant... Just listing solid players from many team says nothing about a single team. What point were you even trying to get at?
Also, "Don't see how you could argue this." Seriously? How is it possible to be that sure that they are better, especially since I am VERY sure you haven't seen much of Nerchio or Happy recently.

I sort of agree, when talking about team leagues it's pretty weird to name a bunch of players who are essentially the Ace's of their respective teams and say, "These guys would likely beat the people on this team". Each individual can only be played once(twice considering ace-match), and I actually do think that Kas, Nerchio and Happy could compete with the players you listed to some extent, I don't think it's inarguable at all.

I didnt say they didnt respect them, don't misunderstand me, empire is a good, solid team, but they are simply not as good as dignitas & mouz, both of those teams are superior to empire, but empire is definetely a top european/foreign team, just not at the level of dignitas/mouz.

EG.Idra 7-1
ROOT.KiWiKaKi 5-2
