Better email the sponsors. I'm sure they would like to know.

I think this should be obvious. And if sponsors don't give f... about what is going on and where they invest, then, who will?

Go ahead, I'm 100% sure sponsors would like to hear you, random internet guy, complaining about their coaches decisions. No doubt they would like to know.

I didn't like any of the player choices:
Zenio vs Anyone is just bad. I don't get why the dude is on roster, his play is far from solid and he looks like he's asleep everytime the camera is on him

JYP is an incredibly shaky player... Every time I watch him play it looks like he could make the game ending mistake at any point. Save my nerves and keep him off the roster.

HerO I actually like as a player, but STX Soul chose Dear to fight JYP so he's probably their PvP specialist. Why send a protoss against him?

Revival is actually a very solid player, good against all the races so I kinda get why they chose him as the ace (I think him and JD are about equal in skill and Stephano prolly wants to keep his strats hidden since he's playing in code S soon). I still would've hoped for Stephano, while Revival is solid, Stephano is amazing. 3-kills are a possibility for Revival but it would've been more likely with Stephano I feel.
Do feed the Troll.

Truthfully, it just is stupid not to play Stephano.

He's the top star in SC2, worldwide, he's in Korea for a limited time, he's already been the ace and led a comeback.

also JD is a big star too.

I just hate the message it sends to the fans to not play those guys. Moments like this don't happen all the time...... you can't just throw them away.

make inhous ranking and let 3 of the top 4 always play

like taejja hero stephano JD 3 of them should always play i think and then 4th is revival,jyp,huk etc and zenio if hes back in form

but not throw away the games

also stephano is just a few month in korea. .. let him play every game he is probably the best sc2 gamer worldwide ...

EGTL's coach is so soooo bad. EGTL have the calibre of players that they should no question be top 3. Instead they are currently 6th and they just lost to by far the worst team who had only won 1 in their previous 6 matches!

Every one of the coach's picks was bad, every one. I could analyze in detail why each was a bad pick but the results speak for themselves. 1-4 against the worst team in the league with players like stephano watching from the bench unused. I am speechless.

By the way I wonder what all the people who thought Revival was a better pick than Stephano to three-kill have to say now? I actually think Revival is a good player but he is a choker under pressure. He said himself when he was interviewed he cracked under pressure after his last ace loss. Stephano has played and won in countless finals, he clearly thrives under pressure. You're the coach and you know this...and you pick Revival?!

Fire. The. Coach.

@Everyone asking playing Stephano:

I would say it's quite obvious the reason they chose not to play him. Stephano has his code S match next week, so they are preparing him full time for the Code S. Yeah, PL is important for EG-TL but I doubt they view it as important as Code S (which a lot more foreign fans watch it).

Well, Bogus/Innovation is in Stephano's group in GSL. He played, he won, his team won.

Maybe that will hurt him in GSL, maybe it won't. Clearly STX wanted their proleague win more that EG/TL because they didn't let that be a factor.

Stephano is streaming dozens of games everyday. I don't see how a few more televised matches would hurt him.

EG-TL is there to win, right? If they were in such bad position (been led 3-1) why not send the best players still available?
In all seriousness, I wouldn't be so disappointed about EG-TL if Stephano or JD were the choice for ace, at least I'll know that they did their best (EG-TL). Revival is a good player nonetheless (SKT1 - EG-TL) , but when you don't have any room to afford another loss , you send the big guns.

I think we're being harsh about the lineup. Jyp and zenio are solid choices. I mean they have to show ROI somehow and JYP atleast seems to have done better than we think.

HerO is an emminently solid pick. I would say HerO, revival and JD are all the same tier of strength for EGTL. Stephano obviously needs to prep for his Code S run. Taeja needs to recover.

Sometimes teams just lose.

I love that everybody just non-stop criticizes the coaches on EG-TL as if they know exactly what matchups/maps the players have prepared for this week. Proleague has a huge element of preparation by having various players practice specific matchups on specific maps. If the player/map combo comes up they will put out the person who was supposed to have prepared for it. It might be a specific build against a specific player or simply a race on a map, but that's how you plan out for proleague.
