Why isn't VINES in the Lineup for Empire?

I'm predicting a Slayers 5 - 2 or 5 - 3.

Players we will most likely see:
Ryung
Crank
Miya
YuGiOh
CoCa

VINES
viOLet
Kas
Happy
Beastyqt

Empire has some of the best European terrans,vines and violet but Slayers will have this one. It'll be a great match tho.

Now. After watching Acer vs Prime and NSHS vs FXO.CIS, I think it's safe to say we shouldnt jump to conclusions, especially with Empire having some reaaally strong players

Nonetheless predicting 5-2 or 5-3 win for SlayerS

Well VINES did destroy slayers by himself in the GSTL before so empire's got that working for them, I feel that with themista as a PvP sniper he can take down puzzle and crank combine that with Slayers terrans recent struggles and I think that empire has strong upset potential here. But themista is still a massive wildcard for me so I can't safely say he can take down puzzle or crank and with those 2 I feel as if slayers should have the edge.
SlayerS 5-4 empire.

I think with kas, vines and violet there is a decent possibilty for empire. But slayers is overall the better team. Maybe 70 to 30 percent winchance.

Slayers wont have JYP to save them vs toss. Vines could do some real damage here like he did for oGs in the GSTL. i think this has the chance to be very close. Slayers gets my vote though because it's slayers in a team league. 5-3

That's not everyone, either. It's missing players like Slayers Arthur, Slayers KDY, etc, who are new recruits, though I think some of the players listed on the roster are probably inactive.

Go Slayers!

viOlet could take out quite a few SlayerS boys

I wonder if he could already beat MMAs ridicolous TvZ, given that the matchup now seems kind of balanced and its viOlets best matchup as well.

I predict Empire winning, viOlet is a beast and if the games are played on NA he will be even more hard to kill.
The entire Empire line-up is scary except hobot and maybe TheMista (did not see him recently so I don't know) and I expect Happy and Aristeo to do good again (remember Prime vs Empire?).
