i dont get what s1mon did to make EDG into a top5 itw team, without him they struggle so hard agaionst teams that should be a fluke.
S1mon did some insane clutches but other than that, i dont really watch S1mon micro plays, but they were obviously enough to make EDG so much more powerfulk, afte rgetting him they won champs abnd came 3rd in bangkokky.
Anyone have an explaination
Breach stun haven C main enough said
S1mon peaked 996 or somewhere around there in RR this act hes clearly good enough mechanics wise
you know that 1 player can win you a game but not a championship, entire edg popped off at champs and the result was the win; now they are losing on the individual game then what else can they do
but it felt weird how TH absolutely shit on EDG in Shanghai and then Lost in Champs, Haodong Vs S1mon
Because EDG was always a free team against anyone. It's not just TH. PRX shat on them as well. Haodong was the issue.
s1mon leaving might've started a crack between teammates
idk for sure tho, but it feels like they're starting to play more indivdually
He just had some insane utility for the team and could help nobody call. Now nobody couldn't call alone to a high caliber and had to move the IGL to chichoo
It seems this is a genuine question, it's probably best to ask these on the valcomp subreddit btw cause you'll get more analytical takes. I can explain the reason here but I first want to make sure you actually do want to know, I'll have to put some time into it cause it goes into what made EDG good over the years (from 2022 onwards) and why 2024 Champs was the culmination of that
