issue 1: not replacing long time fraud coaches. why is engh still around, for example 💀

issue 2: holy how are we supposed to keep good players and coaches when na salaries are ridiculously inflated. Do we have to start crowdfunding emea salaries? 😭

I doubt every pro is a country or small city kid so it's probably not just usual capital city issues then

As someone from London, Berlin feels practically empty, it has about a third of London's population over the same total area.

EU doesn't have as much Talent as Americas, I said it bro. Someone made a post that there should be more Russian talent and maybe thats true

NRG/EG/LOUD was full Americas no? SEN had Johnqt but he was Canadian, but yeah was an import. and now NRG has Keiko so ig we did take some talent but not all of it. We gave yall N4rrate and Crashies and they both made LANS im just saying, even Koaloanoob but yall failed him.

1 coach out of many, and bonkar was in tier 2 americas for a while, definitely not for the salary

He was in t2 na because nowhere else would give him a job, making a name for yourself as a coach especially in emea where we still have fucking engh is impossible.

Elevated did his absolute best on GE only to get his career completely and permanently fucked because j0v0n0l0 is too busy dming kids to actually do his job and forcing p0tr0ckwh0 with 0 prac. This bum fucked at least a coach and a player, probably the whole team.

Bonkar played with some pretty big names in EU before, I highly doubt only na teams wanted him to coach
The tier 2 ecosystem is way bigger in EU than in americas as well, so there are way more domestic opportunities

What did I just say. Emea teams don't drop their coaches when they're clearly the problem T2 included. Ironically something they share with DRX

nAts is good if he doesn't bait his whole team throughout the match and actually makes calls instead of playing for himself

his midrounding is ass
he's like the 4th best igl in emea but theres not much competition
boaster jamppi starxo cloud are the only real callers which puts nats even further down maybe even boo beats him at calling

EU FPS culture’s still CS influenced slow defaults, heavy util, structured execs. Ends up a bit predictable.

Coaches and IGLs are the biggest issues, we have no AMAZING IGL or coach. Also, i feel like every event the actual best EMEA team never gets to the event. If FNC or VIT were at this event, they wouldve performed waaay better. We always seem to have a new team at events and they just shit the bed.
