mada is more valuable since he's a selfless duelist who creates openings for his team.
oh yeah sure bro, if you offer mada or aspas to any team in the world you already know who theyre picking
aspas is literally the most complete duelist in this game and the greatest of all time, DONT try to put them on the same shelf, just dont
the glaze is insane for someone who hasnt done much since champs 2022 where he was the lowest rated player on the team and coincidentally also the most selfless he ever played. Aspas selfish playstyle does not fit as well within the NRG system, Id rather have Mada.
hasnt done anything since champs 2022
for you to say something like that youre either acting in bad faith or you just dont watch / dont understand valorant, just because mada is on your team doesnt mean you need to say hes better than fucking ASPAS.
he might fit better in nrg’s system because the system was basically MADE for him to thrive there.
in EVERY way, EVERY single way, aspas is better than mada. gamesense, entry, aim, movement. ALL of it.
aspas hasn’t had a team as well-structured as nrg post stage 1 since he left loud.
you’re acting like he never won americas with lev and carried that team to top 3 in the world, plus carried the trash 2025 mibr to a top 5 at champions that easily could’ve been top 3 if the rest of the team could’ve won clutches.
aspas is different, he’s a carry player, and if you dont agree with that it just shows your bias cause youre an nrg fan.
Aspas glazers love their projection and revisionist history dont they? NRG was never made for Mada, you just made that up and projected what Aspas did where he literally BUILT the majority of MIBR himself.
say whatever you want bro, mada isnt better than aspas, and this isnt to disrespect mada’s skill as a duelist, just dont put those two players on the same shelf, that just doesn’t fly.
I mean you're the one who's saying NRG is made for mada, you know what the tells me right? That Im correct in Mada being more valuable and selfless as a duelist to where it seems that way. If NRG had aspas they would have to change their style to fit Aspas, you know just like Aspas had MIBR do since he built the team.
he might fit better in nrg’s system because the system was basically MADE for him to thrive there.
agree with everything else but this, mada had more carry/popoff moments when the team was dysfunctional in kickoff and stage 1
i mean for someone whos supposed to be better than mada he sure loses to him a lot

All these people focusing on the players not realizing NRG coaching staff clears MIBR's so hard.

dude talking like frod and happy are NOBODIES lmfaooooo
its wild that if mibr had won the ot advantage on corrode and s0m hadnt lined up cortezia and xenom in a blind shot you wouldnt be saying this
frod and happy have more than enough experience, multi time cs champions, bonkar is also insane as a coach but youre acting like theres some absurd gap between bonkar and frod when thats just a ridiculous lie
They are absolutely not better than Bonkar and Strong. Just look at their series against each other in Champs. There’s 0% chance you don’t ban Corrode as MIBR after copy and pasting the comp from NRG (which was by far their best map). Only remote reason why it was close was because Aspas. If it went to any other map I genuinely believe Aspas would’ve won them that series
your take makes no sense, mibr was literally two rounds away from winning corrode, it was one of mibr’s strongest maps at champions, the point is everything went right for nrg and they won every clutch + they had a more experienced roster
your take is completely absurd lol, you have no idea what youre talking about
Absolutely delusional. YOU need to rewatch that series. NRG was pulling away until that lucky Verno clutch. This was not going to be a close map without Aspas’s performance, and he can do that on any map. Everyone (analyst, casters, statistics, INCLUDING NRG themselves) stated many times Corrode was their best map. And they have more protocols and understanding how the comp works considering how much more time they had than MIBR. If the final map was Bind or Split Aspas would’ve carried them home
lucky Verno clutch
calling a clutch a “lucky clutch” is bullshit when nrg had lucky clutches the entire champions lol
and corrode was also mibrs strongest map, mibr was supposed to win abyss too, unfortunately that team couldnt close out an ot or win a clutch unless it was aspas or verno, its crazy to talk like there was some massive gap between the two teams corrode, multiple times in that series we saw mibr leading the score on that map, both teams had the best corrode at champions, this narrative that there was some huge gap just isnt true especially since it was a close game
btw aspas always has insane performances at champions, hes just like that, hes a win condition
Just 1 question, if the final map was Bind or Split, would the odds of MIBR winning increase compared to Corrode? In my opinion they had a much better chance considering Aspas’ form on Haven the map before.
I’m not saying MIBR was bad at Corrode, I’m saying it’s a mistake considering how good NRG was at it too.

corrode ended up as the decider, mibr picked abyss and banned lotus since their lotus was trash, they played their best map and the game couldve easily gone mibrs way (split wasnt even in the rotation)
I’m not saying MIBR was bad at Corrode, I’m saying it’s a mistake considering how good NRG was at it too.
your whole narrative basically wouldnt exist if mibr had won one more round than nrg, so its a weak argument
Because they weren’t. NRG said they were comfortable for the most of the map even when they were down. They said they felt they had more protocols and understanding how the comp worked. Again NRG had been practicing the map since the start of Split 2, and MIBR had less than a month to learn and copy what NRG was doing
Ethan has stated that MIBR were the only other team who had a solid understanding of how the map worked
I see it as the same veins as 100T bind. If you’re a good coach you would know to ban it even if you’re also good at Bind. It’s just that you’d rather choose a map they’re weaker in. A good example this would be Potter EG vs 100T in split 2 playoffs. She said they were confident in bind and chose not to ban it. What happened next was expected
Difference is that MIBR had a much better showing vs NRG albeit they did have to win double pistol for that
ethan over verno in terms of calling or fragging? or both? bc I think Verno has the mechanical edge
