As for StrifeCro, his role was 2v2 and that's a format that isn't really getting the support some thought it might in notable tournaments (unfortunately imo). | ||

 But incontrol for me, IS team EG. A billboard, a spokesman, an organiser, a connectionpoint towards the public. Through his interviews at tournaments, his appearances in popular SC2 shows, his willingness to be anything he can be in the e-sports scene for EG. Ye cutting him would be stupid, to me he symbolizes the EG team, the glue that makes it a team. Besides that, Anna is doing stuff for EG aswell. They are all-in and EG seems to reap the benefits from both of them. Axlav/strifecro were there for the results alone, they didn't come. | ||

Dispite how sour it sounds, you don't keep an employee if they're not performing at the level they should be. | ||

EG just looks more and more like SKT1 from BW though - they just assimilate players getting results and get rid of homegrown talent that didn't live up to much. | ||

There must have been more at play than results, since Machine and LZ are both still listed. You honestly don't think Machines results have been far far above that of Axlav and Strifecro? I for one is not surprised at all, my only previous conclusion was that they wanted some mid level players that don't cost anything to be practice partners for their top teir players. However now it seems more likely that it was a matter of waiting for their contracts to end. As esports and sc2 grows and as the talent poll gets bigger there simply won't be much space for players of this mid level caliber esp on a team like EG. | ||

My eyes. They burn. T1 is a freaking dynasty of homegrown players, how are they in any way comparable? It's pretty much the exact opposite. The only acquisition for T1 that matches your description is Bisu. You could stretch it and say the same for Sun potential wise, but he was certainly not getting any results before joining T1. | ||

And machine has improved ALOT tbh, as far as skill goes, i think that everyone thats on the team atm deserves to be there, maybe replacing axslav with LZgamer, but hey is there any word on when/if they move out and where to? i cant imagine they'd stay teamless for long, especially nick | ||

Isnt it strange there is allmsot zero upcomming players from NA. Where is the NA version of Nerchio,Stephano,Titan,Targa. Only one I knew was DDE when he first entered the scene and he is by me considering the best NA player. NA lack a talent productive enviroment and I hope the teams steps up. Its time to develop NA players instead of just sticking with wellknown names. I can only name trimaster for rising star for na. DDE is Korean also. | ||

That would be just incredible. Or just any of the biggest star players(MVP, NesTea), omg my exploded at that thought. I mean, how much are they paid over at their respective teams? I bet you EG could come up with a very lucrative offer to make them switch over...any of these star players would easily reap an enormous ROI. At the end of the day it's really all about $$$. And would not a GSL champion not fit that bill? | ||
