This type of stuff drives me incredibly insane. 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. I agree, alot of people don't realize that most things in life is business, including e-sports. Without money, e-sports would be basically nothing. | ||

Too bad EG cut the midtier players... No longer a fan of them. IMO it's kinda shallow to dislike a team just because they dropped a player. Of course it is your opinion, but if you look at it from EG's perspective they haven't seen many results from Strifecro compared to their other players and frankly it might not be worth the money for him to remain on the team from a business standpoint. Whether you like it or not, these teams are businesses and I believe this decision will inevitably lead to more growth within Esports as EG can allocate their money to players that they may feel are more deserving. That being said I too regret their decision to part but I wish all parties the best. Then you have to ask why incontrol is still on the team. Straight up due to personality? Incontrol doesn't need to win anything amazingly enough whether u like him or not, he's arguably one of the biggest names in foreign e sports because of his personality. In a growing scene it's not all about who's getting the best results necessarily | ||

I bet that the layout of the lair is not preventing the other eg divisions to use the house if needed, and they probably will when the starcraft people are not living over there. I doubt it, the house tour showed that there is comfort over there and that it would really be an invasion of piracy to have the other divisions come over. | ||

At this point it would be silly to say hes not over-hyped. I'm just praying that he attends the next tournament and does incredibly well because if he doesn't, his reputation of being over-hyped will continue to bleed. | ||

I don't see why people keep making this argument, haypro had 1 good instance of play in an entire year, demuslim has done nothing this year really. How do people like you justify your claim that x is so good even though there is nothing really to quantify that claim. It's like me saying that the sky is purple because it is, there's really no results to back this up. Like yes we all realize they're "good" they play professionally, but there's a huge difference from some random footballer from china and messi. Most people are capably of taking a game and often times a set of almost anyone in the world, it'd be almost ridiculous to assume that x will be y 100% of the time, there are bound to be upsets. | ||
