How tf are you crying about being against good teams in the upper bracket of Americas playoffs?

That is like complaining about being cold in Antarctica.

Also the alternative is not very good either, also you can just farm the lower bracket bums and get tape on the good teams, is that not better?

You do realize that they would still need to play against them if they want to make masters right? better to get it over with first then having to deal with it later, if they win they win if they lose then they lose plus it builds confidence if they do win against 2 top 3 teams in americas.

its just that if we face g2 earlier, there is higher chance for us to get knocked down to the lower bracket and 1 more slip up could end our run. If we face them in like the upper final or smth its fine because we have already guaranteed toronto qualification till then

As the second seed in your group, you can't face the leader of your group even if you win the first round match. In this case, you either wish SEN was more successful earlier so that they could lock in the first seeded position earlier, or less successful so that they could be seeded lower. Because there is no other way for SEN to avoid a tough bracket in their position. At the end of the day, it's a bit pointless to be stressed about it. SEN was going to face one tough opponent before guaranteeing play-offs in any case.

Also, I wish people would stop being so timid against G2. Yes, they are strong. And yes, they are favored to win against you. But C9 literally showed that (in Haven) once you take the fight directly to them head-on, it's entirely possible to beat them. Who knows how Pearl would turn out if C9 weren't so cautious in that one 1v2 round? As it stands, I would say G2 Haven looks weaker than SEN Haven and then you just have to try finding a way to beat G2 in one other map, either through anti or a new comp. It's tough, but not impossible.

That is, if SEN is actually willing to beat the best teams in the world and win a title again. They were going to face G2 sooner or later, does it really matter it's in the second match instead of the grand-finals? And even if they lose, it wouldn't be a shameful loss.

Also, it's not even guaranteed that they'll face G2. As it stands, C9 should be favored in my opinion, if you have seen all of their performances so far in this tournament. This is excluding those who think "nah, c9 never get out of play-offs" of course.

I didn't say beating g2 is impossible or something, Im just saying there is a higher chance that g2 beat us than any other team in americas right now. But anyways good points, I like your argument. Someone who is actually talking with reason on vlr is rare to see.
