At end of day they havent even been able to dominate USA tourneys so no wonder they didnt get their contracts renwed.

Is this the part where all foreign players in foreign teams get replaced by B-teamer koreans which leads to no teams having foreigners any longer? 'Cause let's face it, 95% of foreigners are too bad to be professionals on a global level.

Personally, I thought axslav and strifecro were very low B tier foreigners though.

2011....the year Koreans took over foreign tournaments.
2012....the year Koreans take over foreign teams?

Honestly, the mid and low-tier foreigner's days were numbered anyway.
As the scene expands and the game gets more figured out, it's going to be the ones who work harder that are going to rise up.

Awe man. I really like Axslav as both a player and as a person. Definently one of my favorite players dating back to TFT. I really hope he finds a new team and starts owning it up. His stream is also awesome. He does a really really good job of carefully explaining his thought process AS he plays a game. I learn a lot from watching his stream.

I bet this is a bit of a wake up call for some of the other games in EG as well. Anyways, Best of luck to both axslav strifecro, as well as the remaining EG guys!

Which, as always, will be the Koreans and the Chinese to an extent.

Why in the world would Grubby come back to a team that let him go???? He's not going back to EG.

Well that was about a time, I've been wondering for a long time what exactly are they doing in EG. EG is better off buying some Korean players

Good luck to Axslav and Scrifecro, they can probably make some money by playing some daily tournaments or something as rest of the semi-pros do

Yeah, it was just a matter of time. They've stayed so long because the game is still new but the train has started moving faster and faster and the ones who didn't catch it are left behind without much possiblity to follow afterwards. Only a select few foreigners actually have a chance to beat any korean and there are hundreds of them at approximately the same skill level which is kind of sad for the foreigner scene I suppose.

axslav is a really great player, you can watch him in the team streams and he has beat every player ive seen him play, including demuslim, strife on the other hand is a bit off, but still a good player, i understand though that with such a big salary that the business has to let some people go to help pay expenses and/or acquire new players.
