Gz to him, he should do great at root. Solidly agree about root having one of the strongest senses of family.

Yes, but that can't be the root of the problem. Also the puns here are just of a totally different caliber to anywhere else.

I get the appeal of Root, bros playing together, family, and whatnot. But why do people think that they will do well? Is it a fan favorite thing where they want Root to do well, or do people actually think that they can actually dominate other teams?

Well they did beat FXO, taking out both Gumiho and Leenock, in the IPL Team League. So that's a good start.

I think ROOT has the right idea if managed properly. They're getting together a group of players they believe could be really talented and who are driven to improve. They aren't targeting big names (partly because they don't have the resources), but instead are looking for strong players with potential who want to work with one another in a team environment. The addition of Sage and Yugioh I think makes their future even brighter as those two have experienced practicing in Korean team houses and can hopefully pass that work ethic on to their teammates. A good team environment can help everyone to succeed and that seems to be what ROOT is going for.

It would be nice to see them sign one big Korean name to further the concept of spreading Korean level training throughout the team, but I kinda doubt they have the ability to do that unless they get Polt to start playing with them since he has independent sponsors to help fund him.
