Like I get the reason, "wrong meta read", "Waylay nerf wasn't bad", "Raze is still viable on Split"...

But Mada has a great Neon? Why not just lean into the obvious pick?

idk, but this seems like 100T last year being so insistent in Kickoffs/Stage 1 on not playing Tejo only to qualify to EWC the moment they started playing Tejo.

when has NRG ever leant into the most obvious pick, they always have their own Meta for whatever reason

i trust bonkar a lot but his insistence on making his own meta just doesn’t work when there’s a clear best option

we got exposed for it at champs and we’re getting exposed now

Imo Bonkar wants to re-invent the wheel, he thinks his read of the meta is better and that NRG doesnt need to play double duelist to win. Its the same shit Saadhak did in 2024 insisting in his Phoenix Breach and not playing Gekko

Based on what we’ve seen, KRU are currently in a similar ish boat to NRG

They’re not playin double duelist and are just opting for double controller sentinel comps, which is similar to what NRG ran a couple of times

nrg Hate fade and tbh, especially on split, fade is proving to be the best at setting up neon

they really wanna lean into the skye cuz she got the buff but to be honest, she’s still really not all that

oh yeah that is true, idk why NRG aren’t insisting on neon like if they don’t wanna play double duelist fine but at least play the most broken duelist right now.

I think they only picked raze on split because of the util combos with deadlock

Like i said on another comment i think Bonkar just overcooked a counter for a counter. Thought teams would use Vyse to try to stop Neon (which is true) and tried to go full circle to counter that a build a meta for the meta
