tier 2 fetishization

people always talk about how they want orgs to take chances on tier 2 talent but when m8 sign two tier 2 thanos players (starxo and bipo) their roster is wildly called mid

you cannot find a better fragging igl in tier 2 than starxo
you cannot find a better entry in tier 2 than bipo (besides purp0)

not to mention they are properly building around their world class sentinel player, minny.

wouldnt be surprised if they win champs

purp0

I think the only reason Starxo's stocks are pretty low is because emea is awful in terms of T2 IGL ressources so he had no competition since he picked up Igling. Had he played in NA people would have been higher on him bc he would have proved himself in comparison to other big igl prospects ( even tho he won't be igling on m8s most likely I know)

m8 is a regional playoffs team at the very best

thanos got neutered or smth
