Nice cope blud, they can learn at Cacun after ASSpas gives us the generational stinker, hopefully by then all deluded Bronzilians/Americuck fans will stop riding the 'Champs performer' narrative lmfao
GX were known scrim demons, tell me how they performed for the first half of the year
They indeed have a meaning. Even if they were "trolling" because they were trying stuff, it reflects their ability to adapt to bad circumstances.
The idea of a scrim is to trial run pre-determined ideas against a real life opponent. It's not a friendly match where it's a first-to-13 trial-by-fire, but rather both teams saying "this is what we want to practice" and then going through with what they're setting out to achieve.
Adapting to your opponent in a scrim can actually be pretty unhelpful, and I'll give you an simplified example to illustrate this.
If, for instance, team #1 wanted to practice their A hits, they would hit A 12 times in a row. They would have also communicated to team #2 that their plan was to hit A 12 times in a row. With this information, team #2 could theoretically stack A, or brawl for A Main, or push out Mid and B and retake from multiple lanes. But that wouldn't benefit either team; it would be a waste of team #1's time, and team #2 would lose a scrim partner. Instead, team #2 would play as if it's a normal match. The point is to simulate a realistic situation so that the teams can figure out what's working and what's not, and move forward with a better understanding of what they need to accomplish before their next match.
Doesn't change that a 20-3 is a heavy result also for a scrim. It means that everything u've done just didn't work. A scrim it's not always just trying new stuff, it's also a way to train or to not ""forget"" how a T1 team actually plays. By not even playing the NA tournament they haven't really had a good chance to grow as team. So scrims would play a big role, especially if they're playing against one of the possible contenders of the title.
I understand that they bombed out in Toronto but we can't judge too early.
i know scrims dont mean much if this was the other way u would see some vlr frogs here glazing mibr like aspas is the second coming of god.
