interesting TH take

A take on reddit claimed that Team Heretics never choked any of their trophy losses because they were never the best team at any event they went to, which is an interesting view on things
They didn't choke any leads to KC when they lost to them in the 2024 kickoffs GF
Lost an 11-11 map 3 against the champions of masters madrid and lost to one of the strongest pacific teams
Lost in a 5 map series to FNC who still had Leo
Lost in a 5 map series to arguably the strongest pacific team
Lost in a 4 map series to VIT (qualified to champs anyways)
Lost in a grueling 5 map series to the champions & best chinese team after putting up a hard fight

They definitely had a couple chokes, but there were a lot of series that they lost where they just weren't the better team. EDG was arguably just a better team than them, as well as FNC with Leo, SEN at Madrid, and GenG at Shanghai

th didnt even have their full team for madrid and shanghai

aka TH players will be the greatest players to never lift a trophy

So close yet so far ahhhhh team

The only choke was stage 1 against Fnatic in 2024. Allowing Split was their downfall.

champs 24 was a choke at least by this community's standards i think choking is used wrong most of the time but the most well known "choke" prx vs eg which was just a GF loss maybe prx had advantage and champs 24 is a direct carbon copy of that TH were better then FNC with leo at that time

gen.g was just a retro active "choke" like prx's 22 when people say they lost 2 grand finals but again they could've been given the advantage that was when EU,NA>>>>>APAC,CN

a choke is a team having a advantage massive usually against a team or in a game where one of the only ways to lose is choke it

I'd say maybe the reverse sweep loss to FNC could be seen as a choke
