The Proleague games seem to often be quite one-sided because they are such high-level games, one mistake can end up costing you dear. I'm curious to see what EGTL throw out in terms of lineups later in this tournament. HerO's if anything got vT as his best matchup nowadays, Jaedong is quite an unknown quantity but seems to be very good at Z mirror, I'm not actually even sure what most of the lineup's best matchups actually [i]are[i/] at this moment in time. | ||

Taeja played really well, JYP is clutch, and Jaedong is awesome. with Revival, Zenio, Puma, and Stephano, this team should be theoretically unbeatable. I still expect great things in the future, but they have to step it up. | ||

They definitely drew good matchups considering that the other team's staff is also trying to draw best matchup for their players and snipe opposing players etc. CJ definitely didn't have an edge in the matchups. Could it have been even better for EGTL? In theory yes, realistically not really. | ||

Huk's match was iffy, but Thorzain and Hero both made some pretty questionable moves. It might be nerves or maybe just the situation (jet lag and all), but they gotta do something. a team with this much talent should not go to waste (trust me, I'm a Chargers fan). Taeja played really well, JYP is clutch, and Jaedong is awesome. with Revival, Zenio, Puma, and Stephano, this team should be theoretically unbeatable. I still expect great things in the future, but they have to step it up. I read that EG-TL was the best PL team coming into this season. | ||

Maybe next time someone else is send but for now you cant question the decision to put teaja in. But I would ask if you really have to play this wacky drop play. Thorzaine lost like 3 drops or something and didn't presure the front enough and also Teaja lost a double drop before he got crushed. Everything else was totally fine. + Show Spoiler + TL HERO HERO HERO HERO HERO HERO Why do you do this to me? Dat Ling push :'( | ||

I was scared , because i don't know what to expect from Bong and SongDuri and both didn't look like they are up to Proleague standart at this point . Had CJ played Skyhigh and Snow i would have been a lot more confident about this match . Thank god for herO[join] saving the match . | ||

I agree, I love huk and thorzain but even with the hero fail, we would've seen our first win had any of the four players mentioned been used instead of the two. But I guess this speaks more to EG-TL's goals. Are they here to win or are they here to pull in more sponsors? | ||
