Taichi [#10]And another US Team full of non US Players. Love it.

I'd rather have this than not having any european in the league because of region locking or patriotism and the lack of european cities in EU tbh.

mate, i dont even wana hear it. EU has ONE city, owned by an NA org, filled with KR players. There are more KR players than EU in this league. I have no sympathy to spare for NA

probablyt Misfits, sure Boston and probably LA 2 have to announce more players

That's because there just isn't that many top level American players compared to KR and EU really, imagine if the league was full of US players it would be complete dog shit, sure the balance is all out of whack but Americans just ain't as good as Koreans and Europeans for the most part.
poi98 [#16]probablyt Misfits, sure Boston and probably LA 2 have to announce more players
That's true. I'm prayin that they're in.
Pixelfish [#21]That's true. I'm prayin that they're in.
I am in love with FCTFCTN...he is probably with rakwus the only NA player that if he wasnt on OWL i was very dissapointed on
Happy to see that another good group of guys made it in, now interestingly enough this SADO guy is getting absolutely shit on by the KR Overwatch scene for being a notorious booster.
How does that even escape a team's field of view when going through the selection process? There's no way he should be allowed to play this game professionally if the allegations are true.
Also, respects to all the Pro players that didn't make it into Season 1 but should have had teams not wanted to get a couple of random Koreans in. And I'm not talking about the ones that performed well in APEX, just the random ones we'd never heard of or seen before, just my opinion though.
Hopefully there's a possible expansion, or turnover gets rid of the ones that can't perform and we get a more high level league in Season 2 as a result.
