At this rate, I wonder if it is worth it to keep NSH in the GSTL. Kicking them out would mean that the team effectively has no more tournament participation, and would probably kill the team, but at the same time, it hurts the GSTL if there are teams that simply cannot compete. Isn't NSH part of eSF? Does eSF have the power to intervene somehow? Maybe merge some teams, or something. This team needs an intervention. | ||

I imagine NSH won't disband, but Prime will, after this season. The future of the GSTL is not really clear, but right now having two teams that are almost auto win really hurts the tournament. | ||

Maybe they need a EG-TL type thing in the GSTL as well | ||

Well, having no players in WCS or any other major tournament makes NSH already quite irrelevant, and GSTL is really the last place where NSH players can play tournament matches on a regular basis. Regarding Prime, other than the horrendous GSTL results that they have, their stagnant roster, and Masterbreti's post talking about some of the issues in the Prime house, are there any other indicators that they will disband? Such as sponsorship pullouts? They might just limp on as an irrelevant team for a while rather than disband. | ||

That'd make the problem even worse. :p The problem with NSH and the GSTL is that having such a weak team means that all the other teams get free all kills, and that weakens the competition. I think EG might be nice to see (Jaedong, Revival, Oz, aLive, JYP, maybe Thorzain or Huk as well), as I think EG could probably be a competitive team in the GSTL, and they would certainly bring viewership. | ||

It'd be nice to see EG in the GSTL for sure, but I'd rather have them go at it by themselves rather than EG-TL. I never really liked the idea of EG-TL. I realize it was necessary to participate in PL, but it also ruined the best team rivalry we had in SC2 outside of Korea. Now EG vs TL matches just aren't as exciting as they used to be. It'd be great if TL could participate in the GSTL, but they just don't have enough players. | ||

Here's a question - is the format to blame? What's the definition of this format(winner stays, loser is replaced by new player, etc)? VS EG-TL Proleague games where if I'm not mistaken, set players are paired up against set players. That way it's much more rare to get an "all-kill" because the match format makes that much more unlikely. So if you lose, you step out, and the next players jump into the booth. Just wondering really, if it's the format more than anything else, that's hurting NSH. If they played under the Proleague format, would things be different? | ||
