TL still carrying EG so hard. Idk why EG is even there. Hopefully they covered the proleague cost.

Turns out a group of clowns and entertainers aren't actually good at competing. Embarrassing.

Well Stephano will probably be very useful when he'll be in korea, JYP got some kills off and Jaedong is someone with some "potential" (LOL).
I'm glad to have TaeJa in my main team because even in his current form (far from his 2012 peak in the summer) he is capable of beating kespa boys!

Thing is, Even TL (Hero & Taeja) need JYP and Jaedong to win games. Jaedong & JYP has been winning almost as much as TL. Without them, it could be even worse for the whole team..

How many of those losses are from T-zain and Huk? Yes, statistically Liquid is pulling in more wins but when you have two of the scariest players in Taeja and Hero I think this can be expected. Who is else is Liquid going to throw out there though? Maybe if TLO was in Korea they would have another scary player but they still need EG because the best EG players are still better than the mediocre Liquid players.

That being said, T-zain and Huk shouldn't be used anymore. It's not because they are foreigners but because, to put it simple, they are playing godawful. It's an autowin for the other team whereas a foreigner like TLO might actually get a few points. I think it is really cool that both of the players got put out once, to say that they played in Proleague, but just lie Nony abstains from playing in team matches (Because he doesn't think he can pull his wieght) they should do the same.

These are stupid comparisons. EG and TL are in this together, there is no one or the other. It's team league.

EGTL got lucky this time. But it is okay for T8 to drop some games since they are more or less a group of b-teamers and Baby. If only one of the weaker players on T8 could have gotten the free win from Thorzain...

TL got their 2 aces.
EG's ace is not there.

Replace Puma/Thorzain/Huk by Ret/Sheth/Nony and the result would be the same. But if these players get to their peak shape... EG's are just way way better.

Both teams top 3 players are pretty close in skill with a slight advantage to TL but I'd much rather have Jaedon as third than Zenio:
TL: Taeja, Hero, Zenio.
EG: Stephano, JYP, Jaedong.

The difference is.. EG has way more depth. Both teams need each other though.

Cough estro cough. I really doubt its hwanni that is the problem here..

How's Estro doing these days?

I dunno, ask NonY.

It was lack of funds, not personnel, that hurt estro the most and that wasn't Hwanni's fault at all. Hwanni was an excellent manager. I don't know why Serinox implying that Hwanni is a bad manager should concern anyone. Who is Serinox anyway and how does he think he knows something? It's probably a vacuous judgment. Ignore it until something substantive is said.

EG has way more depth, but no one spectacularly good, their two best players are Stephano (which is really good actually, but showing weak ZvZ these days) and Revival (who doesn't seem to be on PL roster for now). TL is kinda stronger than EG but in the end, they probably wouldn't even have those two wins without EG helping them.

I think all those game lost for liquid was Zenio and Sea. Not argueing about EG vs TL, to be honest, they are one team, and that's how we should treat them.

Chill out. Zenio isn't good, and then you obviously can't have a 2 person team. Least, I thought that was obvious, your attitude is a disgrace.

Congratulations to the dynamic duo, I didn't expect this, but I figured it was possible. I hope they can get more comfortable in Proleague and continue with respectable performances. Their first 0-4 showing was kinda depressing, but even with a losing record I'd say they've been performing well, and should only perform better as time goes on (hopefully).
Like Tinkerbelle, I leave behind a sparkly residue.
