I think Alfajer in Toronto is better than Alfajer in Tokyo
✋😐🤚
Cap. He had 1.7 fucking KD in Tokyo. He did hard carry more in Toronto but he literally couldn’t miss at Tokyo
Alfa had a worse team this tournament this was by far his best tournament he legit carried fnatic all the way to the final in Tokyo he had Leo and Derke
He was by far fnc best player in Toronto unlike in Tokyo with competition from chron and Leo, but he still had some whiffs and one slow and one mid match. At Tokyo, dude was untradeavle hitting like 10 clutches and multi kills a map and had an unreal grand finals.
Stats wise of course Tokyo was better but I think impact is more important and he was more impactful this tournament. Also teams have gotten way better now so a performance like that is almost impossible in todays game
Is he more impactful because his kills and fragging were more impactful or simply because his team was a lot shittier? Would you say Aspas has more impact on lev than loud simply because he needs to carry more?
I do agree that his Toronto performance is still unbelievably impressive, definitely the highest tournament long peak we’ve seen since demon1 at champs 23.
His team being more shittier does make him more impactful yes but also its harder to do better on a shittier team
Also if it went map 5 alfa was about to destroy the kill record he could have been on 120-130 kills
2023 alfa was diffrent he got all timeing in the world his site hold was top tier and when he was taking 1v1 odds are in his favour even if it is 50/50 dual he make it like 65/35 in his favour
in 2023 he did not need set up from his team to frag more
A system of gears is as strong as it's weakest gear. It's really hard to carry a potato aimer like Boaster all the time.
so you are saying if some one with good aim was igling they would have made it grand final of toronto and won EMEA stage 1 also
Only reason why fnc made it as far as they did was blasters calling. That being said, 13 first deaths on smokes and going -30 makes an impact when there was a 13-11 and a 14-12 map losses. Fnc got first bloods a lot and had good calls but boaster died early and failed to get trades.
I wanted to help him shoot a little better 🥲
Wish it had gone 5 maps man Alfa was on pace for 125
idk but what happen he was doing good shooting in EMEA idk how he become like his old self
He was shooting fine honestly, it’s only the grand finals he played terribly. It wasn’t just shooting,. His decision making was very questionable at times. Prolly just pressure/nerves
yaa and playing like back to back games make player tired and booster even said he is very disappointed in him self that makes even sad cause he also know he could have done more good but this comment about to banch him and remvoing him it is little bit frustrating to see
Benching or removing him would be the height of idiocy. He’s not just a fantastic caller, but he micromanages mid rounds and multiple players like derke and Alfajer has said he helps them improve off the server as well. I personally do think them losing the final was partially his fault, but his impact outside of the finals was unreal and removing him would the height of stupidity.
Benkai was a mechanically weak IGL who didn't have it in him to win a grand finals. That's why he got replaced by Something who is too cracked as compared to Benkai. Boaster is like FNS of EMEA ; gets a fluke trophy win on the basis of Thanos like teammates but your weak mechanics can only get you so far.
we saw superteams fail before with shooting igls, stick to reviewing trackers buddy
There is a direct co-relation between Tracker Score in Radiant rank and individual performance on stage. It's not a co-incidence that Boaster not only has 400 Tracker Score in Radiant rank but his K/D ratio on stage is always negative.
not everytime, look at keiko’s and derke’s tracker score last year, derke was having very off performances until stage 2 emea, keiko wasnt playing good the whole year until 2025 season started
Whenever I see something about Alfajer’s Tokyo era, it reminds me of that FNS clip
