: "The year was 1776 when the British last touched down on US soil, sadly, not everything went in our favour. Today that changes. Our men are stronger, more versatile and better equipped to handle anything the inferior Americans can throw at us. This day, we revoke their independence."
: "For centuries, the UK has posed a threat to our fundamental North American values: family, freedom, sexiness, and bacon (both US and Canadian variety). Now, they pose a threat to our greatest cultural commodity: ESPORTS. Will an opposing nation whose main exports include funny accents and a clearly inferior version of The Office be allowed to claim superiority over North American ESPORTS? I think not. Today, we take a stand for freedom. Today, we take a stand against tyranny. Today, we take a stand...for ESPORTS."
