It has never been about home quota but if we keep moving ahead with this thinking we will never have anyone capable enough from our home to reach there without home quota and once you don't hv anything to play for the scene will eventually die.
I am all in for GE being a top org bringing a superstar team and aiming for master and champions - I will happily get behind them and cheer for our org and not talk about Indian players in that case.
But with all the respect to new roster I have followed most of them for long and they are all top talents in T2 well most are but do I think this is that star roster which will net championships and hence is a good trade off for letting our scene to fend for themselves ?- I don't think so...
When you let 2-3 players from India play there at T1 it will automatically light fire in others and give them motivation to outperform their fellow players and take those spots and improve in process. Otherwise you can keep trying to rile them up calling them lazy and what not and they have all the pressure and anger in the world to take out at just one tourney a year- ascension and they will inevitably keep choking.
GE isn't a superstar org with huge amount of funding to rope in star players and then we expect them to go far and beyond, so they tried out the heretics approach of taking cracked tier-2 pros unknown to most of the public but trust me the scouters are hyped about the signings. They are cracked but dont have the exposure, so one can only hope them to click, but if they click, trust me we might do something good in pacific stage. Coming to your 1st topic, it is true if we keep on having the loser mentality the scene will die, that's where I have an issue with GE. For me they should have created the academy pipeline 2 years ago.. Because in india the orgs are so shit, that they take a cracked individual who has no experience and they expect him to perform or they get kicked out. For ex - RGE. So I hope the academy pipeline thing works wonders for GE and they execute it to its true potential, and many other orgs follow the same footstep.
