Looks like EG-TL's problems started when Stephano arrived... maybe there's no connection but maybe he's an enigma and as they say team's "cancer".

But Jaedong also didn't show any star game level during whole season

Yeah, he's the guy with the best record in the team and he clearly is the cancer...

Stephano is strong in ZvP but weak in ZvZ; Jaedong is strong in ZvZ but weak in ZvP. So why does Stephano play ZvZ two games in a row and does Jaedong play ZvP two games in a row? I know it's partly luck, but coaches have to be good at predicting these sort of things to get their players the most favorable match-ups.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

(Vote): Yes
(Vote): 8th place is entirely possible

Unfortunetly this poll is bad design. I would argue that performing "worse" than egtl at this point would have to be a semantic argument. This poll implies that performing worse is possible :D


ofc it is possible, EG-TL won 7 out of 19. If they win 2 straight games, they are possibly in playoff spot.


I understand that it is technically possible for them to be performing worse, but how significant would that be? With a 26.7% set winrate over the last 6 matches they played (this already goes back to over a month ago), how much worse can a group of progammers under the same roof get, where it still matters. the whole point is that they are not capable of winning 2 straight games with the rest of the teams not winning any, as it currently stands. you are not going to be beating pl teams if your set winnrate is under 30%

Honestly, luck plays a big role here. Stephano was on Neo Planet S which is a P map. You could say that the WJS coach mind gamed the EGTL coach and knew they would put Stephano there and countered with Soulkey. But what about JD's match. Did the coach really want Flying who is 0-3 vZ to play JD, free would have been a much better choice if the coach 'guessed' they would play JD there on Antiga.

If anything, I think WJS was trying to snipe Stephano with ZerO since Stephano had played on Akilon flats the 2 previous matches.

This is the worst theory i've ever heard. They were struggling all season long, not when Stephano came in.

Stephano and Jaedong's bromance is probably the reason. Jaedong can't focus, and the other Koreans are probably jealous of Stephano, so they decided to tank the team.
Fuck you Zealously! For the fuck you give to those players.

The results seem to me to be a mixture of bad luck and bad form, but surely there has to be some criterion of success for the coach as well?

EG-TL seems to perform worse in every round. What happened to them?

Also, why would you place your most consistent player who also won against sOs and ZerO previously at 6th place where he might not even play at all?

Because at the end of the day, you have to win 3 out of the first 6 matches or you lose. Sure, 4-1 looks better than 4-0 on paper, but a lost is a lost (unless it comes down to tiebreakers which is less likely in a season this long). Remember that WJS also had their best player (Soulkey) in the 6th game.

I wonder if EG-TL's performance can be due to the language barrier in the team. Mass-gaming is one thing but experimenting with a build and getting feedback afterwards is a whole other thing requiring a lot of communication.

But honestly given woongjin's lineup today, the results are not surprising. The only set that seemed like EG-TL might have hada shot was taeja vs free.

Maybe EGTL still have the syndrome that they think they're the Stronger team than most.
When that happens, and your opponents are close to your level, if you start calculating too much and playing 'to win safely' rather than taking the gloves off and having a fistfight, you don't play your best game! Who's afraid of losing can't win.

Fuckit can't hurt to speculate and give some selfhelp advice.
