why don't we go back to many sen vods where they had many "easy" rounds where they stuck in smoke. point being, many teams have these "easy" rounds, but we point them out when we want to support a narrative. the fact that does remain, is that the ultimate scoreline was close, and that if you consider a less than a month prepared team to a team that has been practicing the better part of half a year, is a bit commical
Not trying to support any narrative. I'm not a SEN fan.. just stating facts. While it's true that SEN had way more time as a team to prepare and cook up strats, NRG had all the footage in the world on SEN to review and anti-strat. SEN didn't have that on NRG. So you could say they both had their "advantages".
yes it can be simultaneously true that one can anti strat. but to not think that having less than a month of practice doesn't factor into that aswell is absurd. do you really think an unprepared team that lacks fundamentals due to this can execute an anti strat strategy? obviously, there are bigger fish to fry on that team that they were focusing on. and yes we have seen countless of times that chet anti strats very well, and admittedly some he hasn't, but the times he hasn't, the team fundamentals/chem were in shambles.
but to separate both factors and not acknowledge they intermingle is narrowminded in my view
read my response to one tap, this is a very one-dimensional take. even if chet did anti strat, do you think a team with less than optimal fundamentals and cohesion due to being less practiced (than nearly half a year to their competitor) can carry out this antistrat? maybe, but I'm sure chet was focusing on fixing more obvious flaws instead
how did you write this out and go "yes this was a banger reply" and then proceed to hit the button. EG's players and NRG's core obviously have every different styles/philosophies abt how to approach the game. With every new team, its takes a tremendous amount of time to gel and find chemistry. Look at sentinels last year, "I mean they had 4 champions on the roster..." what did they win?
