biggest clutches / throws by teams

that if it went the other way, you guys believe it could've changed something more than a team just winning that series

a few examples that pop up in my mind for me:
If KC didn't lose SEN's eco at 11-11 in madrid, i truly to this day still would've believed KC would've won map 3 and of course made playoffs. and who knows what could've happened to SEN's madrid win
If S0m won his 1v1 vs cgrs in tokyo, I actually feel like NRG had a chance to win tokyo

I wanna see some of your guys' thoughts on other moments. You can be as speculative/delusional as you want!!

if in shanghai 2024, fpx vs th, map 3 OT icebox, if berlin stuck the plant on harbor, he might've killed viper Boo, and they might've won the series and went on the win the entire event.

if valyn just fucking covered the defuse

if jingg didn’t clutch againts dfm, prx wouldn’t be at toronto to begin with

Gen.G 5v2 against RRQ up 10-1.

came back to bite them in the ass and lose 13-11.
Ultimately losing a champs spot

if DRX didn’t overheat vs TH on round 19/20 icebox

Champions 2024, Grand final. map 3, game tied 1-1.

score is 10-9, money low.

S1mon, trapped on site, killjoy ult ticking down, 1v2.
And he big balls stays on site, doesn't flinch and he instantly headshots both and clutches it, with 1 second left on the lockdown.

Heretics are put on an eco and EDG win the map, deciding the series in the eventual 3-2 match.

IMO one of the greatest clutches of all time.

champs 2021
SEN v KRU
If fucking keznit didnt spray blindly thru the smoke and get 3 in split B main, SEN would have won the match and had a better placement.

imo nrg had no chance

mine would be :
babybay 1v3 vs nongshim on split final map masters santiago
i think if babybay won that g2 wins the masters

could name 4 from the bangkok final alone

valyn lets sylvan stick the bomb on round 3 Pearl
valyn lets stax kill Trent while defusing in the 2v1 retake
valyn loses the 1v2 to close out split
Jawgemo throws the 3v1 against Meteor on split

From Toronto:

valyn throws the 3v1 against Patmen on split

From Santiago:

babybay loses the 1v3 vs nongshim on split
Trent and babybay troll the 2v1 vs davai on split

idk but even if s0m landed that shot NRG still had no chance of winning Tokyo when prime FNATIC was around (and only dropped one map whole tournament )

Nah fnc would've still won

i genuinely think eg win tokyo if leo doesn't win that last 1v2 on split in upper finals, double map ban would mean they'd get lotus and bind out of there and they'd have been outright favoured on fracture, pearl and ascent

TH vs EDG s1mon 1v2 or 1v3 on lotus because TH ran into B site literally a second or half a second in before the KJ ult would have detained him and i think TH would have 100% won that map

Biggest Clutch ever was Txozin Knife kill

changed The rest of Vct History Btw

if xenom and cortezia don't get collated by s0m in champs 2025 NRG loses and gets bounced by DRX on lowers

what if kangkang didn't get that 4k with the guardian and instead got killed when he pushed up (this is against heretics champs 2024 final on abyss)

mibr vs nrg was the most throw match ever

Patitek whiffing on forsaken

forsaken losing the 1v1 against crashies at champs by whiffing
was up 9-3 on map 3, lost crazy clutch via whiff to go down 9-10 and was tilted for the last 3 rounds when they went out
also fnc had doma for alfajer last second

The iconic "Tenz Box 3k" on Sunset, NRG prob would have qualed to madrid if that round went their way and It would be completely flipped, maybe 2024 wouldn't have been a disaster for the "superteam" of NRG and Sen would not have even had the change to win Madrid

NRG having a chance against Fnatic 💀
They would not win more than 15 rounds v Fnatic in a BO5

Fnc th
12-9

"I actually feel like NRG had a chance to win tokyo"
I might believe the allegations now
