EG White, EG Black remove players

Nearly six months into the Blueprint project, two of the EG squads have made changes.

Jonathan "⁠djay⁠" Dallal and Connor "⁠chop⁠" Sullivan have been released from their contracts with Evil Geniuses, departing EG White and EG Black, respectively, after nearly six months under the organization's banner.

Changes come to the two lineups following a period of mixed results. EG White won Fragdelphia 17 in September but have struggled in their international tournament appearances at the Pinnacle Cup Championship and ESL Challenger Melbourne, while EG Black have underperformed in ESL Challenger League and other domestic North American tournaments.

djay is no longer a part of EG White

djay had been a part of the EG White core for nearly three years, playing alongside Josh "⁠PwnAlone⁠" Pigue and Ben "⁠ben1337⁠" Smith on New England Whalers, High Coast, and Party Astronauts before their eventual pickup by EG. He averaged a 1.09 rating while under the organization's banner, the second-highest rated member of the team after PwnAlone.

chop put up similar numbers on EG Black, averaging a 1.08 rating — the third-highest on the lineup. The team had limited success overall, however, faltering in qualifier bids for ESL Challenger Rotterdam and exiting back-to-back seasons of ECL in 4th and 5-6th place.

Replacements for both teams are still being explored. EG Black are currently using Wesley "⁠viz⁠" Harris as a stand-in for ECL and have reportedly practiced with Nouns member Jeorge "⁠Jeorge⁠" Endicott, while EG White enlisted the help of Khizar "⁠Momo⁠" Rehman in CCT North America Series 2.

EG White are left with:

United States Ben "⁠ben1337⁠" Smith
United States Josh "⁠PwnAlone⁠" Pigue
Canada Jonathan "⁠Jonji⁠" Carey
United States Wesley "⁠viz⁠" Harris

United States Joseph "⁠Muenster⁠" Lima (coach)

While EG Black have:

Canada Colby "⁠Walco⁠" Walsh
United States Jerric "⁠wiz⁠" Jiang
Canada Peter "⁠stanislaw⁠" Jarguz
United States William "⁠RUSH⁠" Wierzba

United States Tommy "⁠Axed⁠" Ryan (coach)

He's extremely average. Remember that that BNB lineup was the worst one ever and wasnt even good enough to maintain a spot in ECL (They fell to relegation like 3 times). He's okay at best, arguably worse than Djay (Who I agree needs to be replaced). They should've gotten someone else (motm now free, dont know if roles really match though. They want to sign Jeorge but why not keep chop and have one play here and one on EG Black?). Sometimes it feels like these teams take 1 step forward two steps back

Ehhh, a bunch of people on the Nouns roster have a history of being toxic. Doesn't mean they still are, but it's a bit sketch. Also, his pfp was a BMI scale when he stood in for EG Black vs Nouns. To me that implied he was calling bwills and/or cxzi fat. They could've also just been friends joking around. Idrk

It is honestly an over ambitious project. They should focus on having 1 "good" male and female team before fielding multiple rosters. I don't know what they're trying to do / prove by having 3 male rosters, all of which are trash or mediocre at best.
