V0sotros [#3]I want EDG to get into playoffs to see how they stack up against the best teams in the world. They've shown they have the potential to be great against NaVi but can they replicate some of that against Loud or someone at that level?
NaVi was indeed at that level. They just underperformed.

I dont think so, when i watched NAVI against NRG, it was pretty clearly to me that NAVI won the second map and a lot of rounds based on individual performances and not on strategies/mid-round calling. So, it is "easier" to EDG beat teams like that when we compare against teams that have great strats and mid-round calling, like NRG/LOUD/FNC ...

I was talking more about the pressure of the moment. A playoff match has more stakes and pressure behind it than a group stage match, and I'm curious if EDG will shy away from the spotlight or play into it considering they would be the cinderella team
DiscreteAF [#4]in your pov i guess so lol
Everyone but Navi fans knew they wouldn't meet the hype they had

NaVi was just off the this time IMO.
