EG underrated imo

Although I think rn they are the weakest out of the 5 in NA, they have a lot of potential. Remember they beat prime Optic in a good series, and almost made Copenhagen. Jawegmo has superstar potential, I doubt boostio a bit because of his experience but imo what separates EG from the others is they innovate. They create new strats, remember their ratty post plants and wallbangs and fade setups? When a team innovates, they have potential, instead of just copying what works. Obviously copying is great, but it needs to be a combination of both creativity, and using what works already. I could see them maybe dangling around top 10 in the world in the future

Imma repost this thread when EG surprises everyone

Also side note vitality also very underrated young team

They can innovate with a better roster ex:

Supamen
Jawgemo
BCJ
DICEY
Valyn

They overperformed against optic and yay had his worst series at that time
Optic shit on them in rematch
Agreed with the jawgemo part
And almost every team will have way more set strats and lineups because the coaching staff is much more important now and also its just 1 single play that ur talking about , na had teams like v1 and ghost and 100t with insane set strats before them
I just don't know why they didn't build around jawgemo with proven players like valyn bcj etc
And sure they might not be as bad as people are saying but I don't see them making top 5 in americas

Issue is how congested americas is.
every team has an almost super squad.

if this happened in emea/apac i would believe in their success more

was thinking the same thing

EMEA cant even fill their rosters with T1 Talent and NA has like 20 superstar players that are going to be fighting in Ascension

Whoever organized the Partnership leagues didnt think this through, NA and South NA could have had their own leagues and both been stronger than EMEA

*some of the shit. His emea baits are obviously baits. Although I do agree with his take that na has more depth due to there being almost no subregions

Valyn supamen role clash

i already thought of that, i think valyn is good enough to flex to something else tbh, s0m has a role clash but he is chilling on that

actual W
although 4 leagues would be a lot, I think

Jawgemo Ethan BcJ valyn/supamen and Dicey/bdog would have been best for me, tho boostio is fine
C0M Apoth Reformed should not be starting

strongly disagree

xeppaa 1v5's them

AKSHUALLY copenhagen was after challengers... so youre wrong.

by that logic yay's first ever game with envy was his worst game "at the time", whats the point of that? why not just say that yay had a bad day in that match instead of jumping through loopholes to make EG sound worse? EG earned that win against optic, even if they lost later on in the playoffs. also yay definitely played better in that series than in the series against guild.

it was his worst at that time lmao , if u really wanna get technical and say envy's first match was his worst go for it im not that childish to compare yay's first match vs when he was the best player in the world
and the 2nd match proved why that win was a fluke.
eg earned respect , cool cool but fumbled in the playoffs and in lcq when people were looking at them as potential contenders
and im saying "at that time" as in before copenhagen but yea yay's recent worst series was def the guild one

EG is just decent version of RRQ
keeping their unproven rosters, minus the backlash

no.

but why include the "at the time"? it only makes me think that you want eg to look like a "fluke team" when they actually prepared really well for that game, even if they couldnt replicate it in playoffs.

sheahhhh [#16]

i already thought of that, i think valyn is good enough to flex to something else tbh, s0m has a role clash but he is chilling on that

The thing is som has played literally every role during his time in nrg so there was never a role clash unlike here where the 2 players I mentioned arebdesignated smokers for their team
