Foreigners are nothing but mascots, keeping the fans happy. That analogy makes no sense. Not only because Football is a team sport but also because the policy of Manchester City to buy all the best players in the world to make the ultimate team is absolutely not what EG is doing. If you look at their picks they chose fan favorites like IdrA, Huk, Thorzain, Stephano and JD and some pretty high level players from their respective scene like Suppy, Revival and JYP. The only player not fitting these criteria is Puma who was just considered one of the best players in the world without being a big personality. If they were like Man City, they would be going after the Korean superstars who dominate in the moment. And they would probably sink a lot of money into players whom people only really give a shit when they are winning (Puma, Jjakji, Alive, Seed, Loisira, Symbol...). Instead they get players people love no matter what their results are and players who cost them little and can get them great results. | ||

I think Machine will stay, hes marketable and hes decent... definitely if they want to keep saying they have a good NA team. LZGamer on the otherhand probably shouldn't be on EG, but the fact that he played for them in BW makes me think he will stay for a while longer. | ||
