Hes incredibly inconsistent with attending events and always seems to have a reason preventing him from going. Hes like a sports athlete with a lot of talent but is always physically injured leaving them unable to actually play. Some things just happen, maybe DeMuslim is meant to be the unluckiest man in esports? They definitely won't let him go when he has confirmed he is going to Korea very soon, his contract should've run out at the same time as Axslav and Strifecro's and he has probably been the player to benefit most from the EG house. | ||

I imagine both their salaries will go towards the budget for either the current lineup or into the Korean transfer market. Yep. Seen as Korean's currently earn no salary from their teams you can pick up a Code S Korean for the cost of the mid level foreigner. Which is an insane difference in value for money unless the foreigner is someone like Catz, Destiny or Incontrol who have the personality and stream to make up for a lack of ROI on results. | ||

People moan and whine about wanting e-sports to be a legitimate venture in the western world, but then get mad when they behave how EVERY legitimate sport works. If you're familiar with the colts it would take two seconds to realize that what has arguably one of the 3 best teams in the nfl in the past decade fired their headcoach and multiple other people over 1 horrendous season. If people don't perform there's no reason to have them on a paid roster it's a waste of an investment, e-sports won't survive as something that's there just to support people with no real results. You could certainly ask why people like lz stayed and axslav got booted but it would just be guessing, sadly at this point in time the only people that EG has that are really considered good are their now top 4. even demuslim isn't that good in terms of pro results these days. of course this is completely negating how winning isn't the only thing but i'm not sure why lz is still on the team i feel like his results are comparable to those of the other 2 with just about the same following. | ||

GL to both those guys, being a competitor in this game is tough, there are a lot of really great players on the international level and very little exposure for if you're not on that level. I hope they land somewhere good. | ||

Popular streamer, regular qualifies and participates in major tournaments and has a decent fanbase. That's all solid ROI for EG. ESports is all about marketing, winning is not everything. | ||

Also I don't know like, they should be fostering the NA scene I think being one of the big boys on the other side of the pond. This is my "rank" atm; LZ; Stays for unknown reasons. Machine; Has been there since the beginning? Has a decent fanbase PuMa/IdrA/HuK/JYP; Korea, very good top notch players obviously not going anywhere. INcontroL; Community profile. Brings in A LOT of fans just like IdrA. Good PR. DeMusliM; He has a "inner beast mode" and we all know it. I just wish he would go to Korea soon so he can tap into that source of beastly play. | ||
