EG 10 man roster

I have a lot of thoughts surrounding this topic. In 2023 EG made it a big deal when they announced their 10 man roster. They were met with heavy criticism. Overall this allowed them to add Demon1 to the starting lineup mid season and come second at Tokyo and 1st at champs. My issue with this is why didn't they make a 10 man roster for 2024 and why don't people recognize the other members of the roster as world champions. Players like icy and apoth competing in franchising this year arent recognized as world champs. Also if EG made their 10 man roster such a big deal why is their 2024 VCT capsule player card only depicting 5 players? Why does a bench player like demon1 get so much more recognition for winning champs than apoth, bcj, icy, screwface, and reformed? I feel like if the community gave their 10 man roster heavy criticism when they first announced it then we should give praise to the roster when it worked.

I understand that most teams 6th men are practically useless and usually not even in scrims but I feel like EG consistently practiced and scrimed with and against their 10 man roster. Fully utilizing all of them. I believe they should get the credit they deserve.

they should get more credit than other reserve players, yes, but they should not be considered champs winners. they weren't the ones playing, they helped the players win.
