Not saying theyre frauds, but they had a easy group lets be real, I guess edg is a decent team, and drx who beat loud. But do we feel like they have faced a top 3 team yet? who people consider Fnc/PRX/Loud

(Not saying DRX isnt good but they looked in really bad form on lotus n trolled map veto imo)

I think EG CAN be higher than top 3 regardless.

TDLR: i dont think EG was tested enough imo, good map pool nice forms but maybe didnt face the best teams yet.

being tested at a lan doesn't matter when you have to beat everyone to win

A red hot DRX that hasnt looked this good the whole year is a fluke?

Before the DRX match, most people/analysts were saying that it was the most in-form team this event. Does that answer your question?

Regardless of who comes from lower bracket, and regardless of who wins, at this point EG is a top3 team for 2023. After the top2 Tokyo and now Top3 Champs, there's simply no way around it

see this thing where vlr users try to math wins like

drx beat loud so that means they'd beat fnatic

it makes no sense, teams go in and out of form, play styles clash

being tested means nothing in a tournament

its cool im not really just talking about you

everyone on this site uses barn logic to decide who's the favorite, instead of doing an actual analysis of what team is favored based on mechanics, form, play style, coaching, etc they just look at who has beat who and try to use transitive property

like if this were the case liquid would've been favorites to stomp everyone at tokyo

bruv, that's playoff DRX. everybody knows that DRX flop on playoffs, they win 1 series at max and then get KO'd

bro if you call facing a top 3 team being tested that's crazy lol. They shown in 2 lans they made top 3 soundly. Who else can really stop them? What if they beat PRX tmmr? Instead of focusing on the team playing them, just focus on their teamwork and gameplay. This is top 4 caliber quality at least.

its Playoff drx tho who didn't look good against EG. The game today was more so DRX trolling than EG playing very well.

Nope, they got easiest path to Upper finals. DRX/EDG are not even that good. FNC lost to a LOUD on form, and people acting like they suck.
PRX will mop the floor with EG.

people are saying drx was the test, but i feel like drx trolled the map veto hard in combination with having an off day. Mako was exceptionally worse today. So yeah idt eg has really been tested yet

first lan they showed amazing potential but they did have a lot of momentum and confidence going in + teams trolled and picked fracture every time against them. EG have not looked as good as they did in tokyo but I agree they are a top 4 team for sure. It's just hard to judge if they will do well or not since they have versed DRX who always go out of form in playoffs + they trolled map veto and also they versed edg who aren't that good and then ALSO they had the easiest group and had close maps with FUT.

"Edg will expose eg!"
"Drx will defeat eg!"
"They got it easy lolz"

Playoffs DRX is the weakest team itw. GroupRX is the actual good team.

DRX was their last test and i believe they have passed. they're consistent enough not to be called flukes. amazing how 3 months is enough for massive improvement.

Compared to Loud, definitely? They had to face Fnatic and PRX back to back. If ur point is that they're not deserving of top 4, its obvious they are, the way they threw DRX around like a ragdoll today (same team that just 2-0'd loud in this tourney). Other than that, I wud argue top 4 in terms of skill rn are PRX, EG, LOUD and FNC

because people aren’t capable of understanding the game beyond

x player got more kills than y so he diffed him!
last time x played y they won so they’re favored!
