To all the NRG fans who call sen win a fluke?

You saying it’s Mickey Mouse because it’s the first event May I remind optic has done the same thing 🤣 and ofc your not calling your own win a Mickey Mouse so why should we

Its not necessarily Madrid but moreso kick off

The format to qualify for Masters Reykjavik was a split and it really gave time for new teams to gel together and build chemistry/synergy

For example, OpTic wouldn't have qualified for Masters Reykjavik if the qualifier had the same format as kick off

If we didn't have kick off and instead had a full split for who qualifies to madrid, then it wouldn't be mickey mouse

I don't get the mickey mouse arguement

They still beat all the other teams, in the end all that matters is being better than everyone else

I don't think Madrid was mickey mouse. But Lock/IN was absolutely a mickey mouse tournament. There was no seeding, it was single elimination from start to end. It was a joke tournament and has no clout. Everything else is fine.

all it takes is one bad game and you are gone from an event. just look at SEN vs LEV, they were the best team at madrid and now they lose 2-0 to t0x and cum.

imagine if they performed like that during the single elim playoffs

sure qualifying for it can be a little bit lucky but in the end of the day you have to beat the opponent in the game to qualify . And also the whole Madrid format was great the Swiss stage is good and so is double elim playoffs

there was a lower bracket, then a play-ins, then the knockouts

why do you fail to understand this, maybe NRG shoulda played saved strats and went for play-ins

Kick off wasn't just some 4 team tournament lol

match vs sen was in march, Ethan and Demon1 were already decided by NRG once n4rrate went to KC on december 13,

IN TOTAL: 3 full months to practice or play off-season events, instead of grinding like sen you waited a few weeks to start scrims and played no events, no tears for the lazy

if sen and nrg replayed sunset it would just be sen getting dominated.

tenz and zekken had the game of their lives and dropped 30 bombs while ethan went 9-22. all while still bringing the match to OT.

replay sunset and it's a 13-6 at least

it also required a few ninja defueses a double pistol and a few ecos/bonuses from nrg that don't happen most times

NRG also won two clutches but had 20 less kills on the map, even if zekken and don't drop 30 kills (the map was 14-16 it's not that impressive to have 30 kills) they would win in regulation usually

Look at the teams that qualified they did way better than the expected team to qualify because they were more hard working than the other teams. Like look at th nobody thought they would make it to an event and nobody thought they would beat fut but they did and managed to destroy Navi a team everyone expected to qualify. The best teams were playing from each region in madrid . Sen beat NRG and loud , lev to win kickoffs . To say not the best teams were in that event was wrong all the teams in Madrid deserved to go over the “ best teams”

leeches clout from bigger names

0 accomplishments (unless you count get carried by TenZ, Zekken, and Sacy) and has been handed Tier 1 opportunities for as long as the game as existed and done nothing with them

Misogynist and/or racist causing him to get suspended while on V1

Crybaby on Twitter

Ruined yay's 2023 career opportunities by not taking LOCK//IN seriously and getting him dropped right before the roster lock

Generally annoying and no personality other than screaming and twerking

FNS just saying shit, his career goal is networking now that he's streaming and not building rosters

If FNS loves him so much, why did he never pick him up on one of his teams?

Put me in the roster and I'll be super vocal and contribute to the win, doesn't make me a world class player. Sacy, TenZ, and Zekken will get me the win anyway (now that they have a real IGL and they're literally lost all game).

So we just gonna ignore the double elim groups, the hectic single day double games play-ins? Saying "oh if NRG won sunset...." is just a cope.
