I don't think there's any guarantee that they will be a playoff team next year, don't forget that all other teams will also train hard and probably improve immensely.

Oh come on they didnt have an actual coach at the beginning, not to mention that they didnt really have a deep line up either. Now that most korean EG players live in the EG house along with coach Park they would def put up better results from the start and not be in such crappy position to start with.

My very own and VERY SUBJECTIVE opinion is that many of the losses of EG-TL players came after they get "drop harrassed to death while not build any static defenses at all to prevent or even help in defending against that". I have no idea if this is a real thing and a "bad trend of the team" and other people with more knowledge of the games played could perhaps confirm or deny it.

This is a pet peeve of mine, because if you try to defend against drops with units only you have to split up a significant part of your forces and this weakens your main army and most of the time a small but potent force is dropped in a base and requires a larger force that this to take care of quickly ... which leaves the opponent with a larger force than the defender. I really dont buy the "but your army will be smaller if you build static defenses" argument, because you gather resources over time and this will only delay you from growing for a short time and there are players who actually manage to do it.
If you cant say what you're meaning, you can never mean what you're saying.

ROI is kind of entirely the purpose of a business. It's way more expensive for a foreign team to participate, especially since they're sending people all over the planet for other events, than it is for a korean team that just sits in korea.

I think being in the Kespa atmosphere and trying to be competitive in PL gives EG a better chance at tournaments outside of Korea whenever they do go to them. Having that gaming house in Korea with Coach Park gives them an edge over every other foreign team. If they're winning more, advancing deeper in tournaments and getting more brand exposure outside of PL because they have that PL infrastructure, isn't that a ROI in and of itself?

honestly i suspect they will sing a different tune if the results had been different and the team destroyed all competition in proleague and clinched 1st instead of last.

Well, they would have gotten a lot more attention and hype if they had done well, which translates to higher ROI (more value to the sponsors if the team does well)

How does a foreign team even make any money from playing in proleague? Im sure its not for the prize money.

Proleague is for the korean market, how does EG-TL (a foreign sponsored team) earn any profit from playing in it.

Im just curious, cause i want EG-TL to play but like someone earlier said, the ROI is poor.

Good analysis.

If EGTL doesn't participate in PL next season I expect the level of play of most of their Korean players to drop (or at least, stop increasing). If nothing else, PL is good practice and a good motivator.
