EPTOtherwise the whole EGTL thing is boring to watch. Seriously, if i wanna watch koreans i look at, Flash, MVP, MKP, Parting, Life etc...
Liquid and EG should stick to the old style with foreigners you can relate with.

You would love to see them get smashed week after week - even worse than now - for an entire year? A weird sense of entertainment. | ||

Let's take a recent case in soccer, by far the worlds most popular sport. We have liverpool, a team which everyone who watches football should know. And then we have oldham, perhaps one of the most obscure teams in england, who just managed to score a huge upset over liverpool in a tournament. That makes the game exciting without compromising a team's "small-town" identity. A team may not have a huge fanbase or limitless resources but can strive to make up for it through hard work and honest play. That wins them dedicated fans and not glory hunters. Let's be frank we don't expect either EGTL or oldham to be topping their leagues any time soon. In fact they'll probably be stuck right at the bottom. But who's to say there's no space in a league for these teams? | ||

Would be pretty much the same like now. Best players JD, Hero and Stephano still on the roster and the rest is good for an occasional win in a bo1. 7th or 8th place after all. Does it matter? At the moment its like 'alright, do foreigners play today? No, well brb 2 hours and checking results' | ||

Huk is terrible, Stephano unproven in PL format(and probably not even there for the entire season) and neither JD nor Hero are S class PL players. Pretty sure they won't do any better than they are doing now. | ||

When I heard of EG-TL I got excited at the thought of watching foreigners battle it out with the big boys but this is just boring to watch. Bring back HuK Stephano and Thorzain and drop half of the koreans since they obviously can't get shit done. | ||

Why were the coaches chosen? Fire them now and bring in Nazgul as coach! EG/TL should have a foreigner coach, because even a foreigner coach would know not to send out Puma for a 5th time. Its just so sad........  Under the right leadership, this team would be contending. | ||

Despite me complaining though, I think not having Taeja really hurt this team, especially in Round 2. Injuries suck. | ||

People are saying things like Stephano doesn't want to give away strats for Code S. If that's the case, have him practice the KeSPA maps in Proleague (which he should be learning anyways) and put him out on those. People are saying HerO hasn't performed that well in Proleague. This may be true, but he's much more likely to give you a chance to win games than Puma or Zenio. If their roster was healthy, they'd have HerO, Jaedong, Stephano, and Taeja. If all of those guys get played, there's a good chance you win a few games and then use the less consistent JYP and Revival to grab another and potentially win the match. Despite me complaining though, I think not having Taeja really hurt this team, especially in Round 2. Injuries suck. Funny thing is HerO was by far their best player in Round 2. | ||
