where do u draw the line when it comes to choking?

saw some silly comments about g2 choking in when it was triple OT in game 5 against T1 at masters bangkok. how is that choking? clearly its a very equal game and only one team can win. where do you draw the line?

having an advantageous round only to just lose it

when someone misses their shots or goes for a useless solo play that loses the round

Usually when they struggle with breathing

that spam from valyn. if he literally took 1 second to gather the spray control, G2 would have masters rn

leaf choked hard on last map, could not shoot for his life

also the final before going ot g2 were in a 5v3 situation that turned into 2v1 in just 3 seconds by meteor and stax

leading by atlest 5 points, then start losing. Also got match point first but couldnt close it out multiple times

i mean even if he did do that, stax would’ve probably killed trent in time

that would make every 5v4 loss a throw which definitely isnt the case. Id say its when the odds are over 75% for you winning the round and you lose it by playing the clearly unoptimal play.
If you have a 4v2 post plant and you constantly keep peeking 1 by 1 to delay the enemies before theyve even applied pressure or tapped the bomb is fs a throw play.

yeah 5v4 is very situational and definitely shouldnt be considered a throw (but again situational, so sometimes could)
such as your team 4 man pushing up A and killing a lurker, then the other team fast rushes B and they win

something like that definitely isnt a throw, or when ur on eco and kill one but still lose, etc
