I'm starting to get really torn over EG-TL. I was really excited to see foreigners play in Proleague but it looks like they have no faith at all in them. Hopefully it will change after a month or two of intense Proleague-style practice, though my cynical side says they will keep putting out the korean players and the other teams will figure them out and completely destroy EG-TL. Do you understand how much worse the foreigners are? If Huk and Thorzain played in every lineup they'd struggle to get 5 wins all season. Playing them basically gives the other team a free win. Winning takes priority. Actually I did think having a two year head start in the game would give them a chance. Its not like Zenio or JYP are miles better than HuK or Thorzain. Call it whatever you want but I refuse to believe Koreans are flat out better than anyone outside of Korea given the same practice regimen simply because the are Korean.
You're forgetting that those koreans have grown up in that environment since childhood. It's not just having the same practice regime (which they most likely don't anyway), the infrastructure has been in korea for a decade. And no a 2 year headstart as a foreigner does not mean they have a chance at beating kespa players now. Every game we've seen from huk/thorzain so far is them getting outclassed like crazy. I love thorzain too but he's simply playing with people out of his league

YAY so glad to see Bisu! Was worried for a second there.

Only week 3 and I already completely fucked up my team. 
Hopefully trading Flying and Dear for JYP and Puma on my main and Jaedong for EffOrt on my anti will gain me a few points.

I still have faith. Go Jangbi and Stork.

I should really take Best off my anti and Bbyong off my main team. Its going to get wrecked once Bbyong loses to best and Flash. Best will probably beat Jangbi too...

"Every game" being the first 3 games foreigners have played in Proleague in years. Don't jump to conclusions about what capable players can achieve in this kind of environment.

They also win at said MLGs. I don't think its farfetched at all to say they'll both pick up some wins in proleague too
