If TE loses the season is officially ended. Winning here really will make up for the loss against Tyloo, since it would make sense to prepare more for EDG in a 2 game week with so many matches to look through as opposed to a new look Tyloo.

This team definitely should be a top contender talent wise, and its time to show that again here. They have had trouble adapting to new metas though, showcased in Masters Bangkok. Destroyer is one of the best coaches in the region though, and I'm hoping that can be showcased in the rest of this split.

S1mon would not have made a difference. They have some role issues now, as Zjc and Nobody only play initiator and most maps are meta with only 1 scan initiator, so they have to play weird comps. With S1mon it would’ve been the same issue

edit: people downvoting my post because they don’t like it but have no counter point lol

It's more of a whole team issue, they had to rely on kk way too much to make space

#47

noahkraken

Frags

–

Agreed. I think they should’ve brought in another duelist player (yoru) or another smokes player and move Smoggy onto duelist, then run double duelist.

#48

xSaneZ

Frags

–

I read that Muggle isn't suited to organising double duelist, not that I even know what that means. They seriously need a coach change either way, EDG looked like they haven't even practiced getting used to the new roles/meta. Like where are the set strats?? drills? So confused whats going on

#51

noahkraken

Frags

–

They also had plenty of time to practice and prepare, so there’s really no excuse. The only promising thing to me is that Nobody has been on fire recently
