JUST WHY ???
Why to put Stephano vs zerg ?

Do EG-TL just want him to make a lot of progress ? or is it something else ?

Very good point. I'm sure before the lineups were announced, CJ told EGTL that they would be playing Effort on Akilon Flats, and Woongjin coincidentally told EGTL the truth that they would play Soulkey on Neo Planet S. So Hwanni deliberately forced Stephano into two ZvZs, despite his terrified cries of "No zerg vs zerg! Please!" just so he'll have no choice but to improve his performance in that matchup. I'm sure* that's what happened.


*The only other explanation is that PL lineups are submitted blind like they have in every other season, and Stephano just got an unlucky draw, but that explanation seems too obvious.


While I agree with you that obviously EGTL have no clue who they're facing, there is something to be said nedding to be able to win mirror matchups in the proleague. This has always been a key aspect of any top PL player in the past. If you can't win mirrors, you can't be sent out to maps that are favorable for your race. And that messes things up considerably. It's much worse for Stephano to be bad at ZvZ than he is at ZvT/P.

Well I think I can see what they were going for on the Neo Planet S selection. That seems to be a fairly good protoss map so they probably assumed he would get a ZvP there

What a shame for EGTL. All these confirmed players used to CodeS/A who loose non stop against players who did not qualify for CodeA and played 10 times less games than them. They are so lame and such a disapointment. I was hoping the first foreigner team would be able, not to win but at least to create a hipe in Corea and impress them to bring a bit more the Corean public back to the SC2 scene. But they just chain lamer and lamer performance. Do they at least give a fuck of the biggest esport competition of all times???

EGTL Sucks. Jaedong should leave that crap team, he's probably adapting their lax training methods.

Yeah right. Because work ethic is definitively related to a team right ? Plus it's not like Jaedong was any good before in SC2 before he came to EG ^^
