Do you guys think C9 recent success based MORE on runi IGL, better role definition, or leaf's fragging?

all of the above
jk tbh I think C9 has great strats and Runi has been a really good igl recently.
I think it's better role definition. Yay and leafs roles clashed on the old roster, and jakee has provided more firepower than vanity would have on smokes which is a huge W, then there's runi is comfortable playing initiators or viper if needed. This would not have been possible with the old roster.
Mce said that leaf watches a lot of vods and know the in and out of a comp and say stuff like “you should do this when x happen or we should react with x”
He said he does a lot of that on his own and c9 wouldn’t be the same without him.
All of that AND being insane on top. So there’s your answer. Singular leaf is the goat.
I would say mCe's coaching, 1 Leaf, and more importantly, everyone's ability to get frags.
With Vanity ( Very good IGL) but the knock on Vanity is his low frag rate as IGL.
Booster changed up his style to Frag more and it really helped FNC! And Jakee's energy to the team!
i don't think it's only one thing. but the most impressive to me was how well they played as a team.
they were always decisive on where to go, what to fight, and their gameplan. i think that's what made their ecos so strong. when you have a gameplan with stingers, it's much easier to convert those rounds than when teams just buy classics and stack sites. they were also aware of holes in the map, especially runi, when he would check areas that people couldve caught timings.
it also helps when 1 leaf is constantly 3k-ing people
It's based on teams saving strats / experimenting while they are going all out. This is why I think LOUD, Lev and NRG will still be top 3 in playoffs
