Cr

Cr made all three lans,but got knocked out in groups and came in last 2 out of 3 times. They had regional success,but do you think they would keep their current roster,seeing how much the other teams in Japan has grown stronger?And who would they replace

disband

recruit:
Laz
Seoldam
Meiy
Kaminari
Sugarzero

I think the communication barrier is truly problematic. I also think it's foolish to indirectly invest in Korean players rather than building Japanese talent. With the player base and support, it's only a matter of time before new, amazing players begin emerging, and it's on the Japanese teams to find them as fast as possible and to make it as easy as possible for them to compete.

Munchkin and Neth are great players. I can't say the same for the rest of the team, though. IMO, they should use this offseason to pick up newer, Japanese players. With the longer challengers events announced, it should be possible to improve them greatly in time for the next LAN event.

Of course, that would imply that they beat Zeta who is also building a pretty great team. I personally don't know if this is possible, but it would be much better than just showing up and getting shitstomped again.

I guess It's a problem but not urgent, just like how Tyloo performs in Asian CS. Once they can not make it to LAN that their management will finally consider the roster change.

The main problem with CR is communication. They have KR and JP players but they comm in Korean, English, and Japanese. They need big shakeups and I believe that a new roster is needed.

The ideal roster I would have is:

Munchkin - sentinel
Medusa - sova/flex
Meiy - duelist
Neth - duelist
Kaminari - smokes

Minty would have been a star duelist but the comms issue he expressed in the past wouldn't be helpful by keeping him on a mixed roster team.
