Is there truly no upcoming starplayer in japan ? Why are 27-old guys like Laz still carrying their scene? where is the new blood?

Anthem, xdll, these are all names making a name for themselves in Japan, still quite a lot of pros moving from other games finding their footing

I dont get why they dont let xdll play. Even if they lost with him, at least we could see his potential.

Why are they not bringing them in ? A player like TEN is certainly not cut it anymore. Guy like dep and Sugarz3ro is not consistent enough. Even crow considers replaceable at this point.

TENN is a good player . He started playing the game like 10-15 days ago only because he had a serious eye injury so they didnt even get much practice. Its just unfortunate situation for ZETA rn and out of their hands

Yeah. but it's not right to expect guys like Laz still carrying their asses. The youngster supposed to be delivering more. One way or another they need another starplayer.

Sadly Japan will still have to rely on Laz, yes there are players like meiy and xnfri but they are not players with prodigy caliber level like f0rsaken, Jingg, or Derke, Japanese teams still relies on imports in levelling up their play where you can see the Duelist/Chamber role in most JP teams are filled with imports while the domestic players is filling more on the support role, no upcoming another world class player like Laz from Japan yet which is worrying for a region with huge fanbase like Japan.

That is exactly the problem. Being the oldest in the team and doing all small things to help the team. Yet, he still needs to carry them. Give that guy a break.

ZETA is honestly so disappointing. Every time they come to internationals, they lose. I really want to support this team instead of Northeption but every single time they disappoint everyone. I understand the situation with Tenn, but why bring him in to play if he is injured? Why not get another star player from a different team in Japan for a loan, like what they did in EDG? The 2-0 was just sad, and if Optic loses to Boom (which I want to happen) they'll have to face them. And if they lose that, I'm just done with Zeta.
