Well they sure as hell won't be winning NASTL. 0-2 so far.

Are they for sure eliminated? Or is it possible for them to advance still?

Either way, the cat is out of the bag. Soon there will be threads on why "Team" will win the IPL TAC2, since every team in the GSTL has already been covered.

Does that mean that they are out, or does the tournament follow a proleague type format? If that is the case, anything can happen. KT came back from going 0-3 once, so.

EG's real cool because besides their 4 horsemen (IdrA, HuK, PuMa, and JYP), the rest of their team is really talented as well. I think that right now DeMu is probably as good as IdrA or HuK skill wise, and iNc, Machine, and Lz are pretty close. Machine is really malliable with his style right now (something a lot of zerg players don't have), iNc is dangerous because of the sheer amount of stuff he can do while Lz probably plays one of the most odd styles of zerg that is really hard to train for. Look for EG to be the top team of this year.

Awesome writeup. As others have commented, an EG lineup in GSTL would've been the best Starcraft 2 ever for me. Or at least play with Slayers.

Why are you apologizing?

TONS of ppl just recycle the same stuff everyone else uses. As long as you make it neat and look damn appealing (which you did) you have no reason to apologize.

Thx for the writeup

It was a good read until the comparison to KT....A good player will always be an asset. Most teams would have done the same in the similar situation and when you consider the team's money it's essentially an investment.

Did anyone else pause for half a second when they saw Flash's picture?

I guess they can still win, but they still have to play Mouz, RoxKis, Reign, Liquid and Quantic. None of those are easy wins and they lost 3-1 to Empire and 3-1 to FXO. Things are not looking good for them.
