People were mad that EG wasn't signing big names while everyone else was
EG was mid pre-franchising and people wanted them to ball out and buy the biggest names possible. I kind of understand it, but a lot of other orgs did that and it didn't work.
People hated EG, but I dont think anyone with a brain was saying the players on EG were bad, they just wanted to see EG doing the cryocells/zekken/yay type signings (which is funny because all of those ended up being for nothing).
And yes, people wanted c0m cut, but people are also stupid because anyone who was following c0m knew he was good before EG started doing well. Jawgemo and Boostio have always been solid as well AND Ethan was huge on 100T.
So it makes sense that discussing whether these players can perform in a new environment would be interesting.
"interesting" is a funny word to describe it because its all speculation. Either they will or they won't, but demon1 just needs to click heads, Ethan has proven that he can fit in anywhere, c0m has been good on every roster he's played on, Boostio has a whole new team to lead (with expectations that are already in the gutter), and jawg isn't going anywhere.
Chance of anyone signing these players being disappointed is slim to none.
