I just wish Trap and Cure showed up more I actually disagree, I was surprised Jinair decided to stay and with this roster, given how the team preformed in individual leagues. Rogue was godlike in the second half of the year and is a top5 player this year. sOs did really well in GSL, but was lackluster otherwise. Since the 2 events he preformed really well in was GSLs that still makes it a strong resume. Maru got top4 at a GSL, but didn't come close to anything else, besides the not very stacked WESG event. And I mean, you can barely comment on the other players. Creator and Cure played one event each and did nothing(are they even playing actively?) and Traps best preformance is 2 ro16 appearances in the GSL. This leaves me quite confused as to why JAGW wouldn't swap out at least 2-3 players for much stronger players with much more potential to preform. Free agents include: Dark, Inno, Soo, Dear and Zest, and you could probably include other players whose sponsors are super small and nowheres Jinairs magnitude. The only guess I can get is that either the players left in JAGW just stay the same because they have more of a family feel betweem them, so the players/staff there don't focus too much on having the best/most marketable team possible as long as the world goes around. Another theory is that all the top players don't think whatever salary and teamsupport JAGW offers is enough to sacrifice their sense of on-the-spot freedom. | ||

Perhaps they just can't offer salaries big enough to lure back some of the big names, who are hooked on freedom after finally getting out of the teamhouses. Because nobody likes teams which only buy the best players. Especially kinda awkward in this situation. | ||

Rogue got GSL ro8 twice, first in Shangai/ST2/blizzcon. sOs got GSL final/ro4 and played in SSL premier for a season, Maru got GSL ro4/ro8, WeSG final, and played in both SSL premier seasons. I don't understand how you can look at these results and say the team was lacking. Trap and Cure had their focus elsewhere sure, but the big 3 did fine | ||
