Lowkey underselling it. Needs to be a new word for him, inconsistent doesn't cut it.

Wolves

No. Just take him off.

Very uncomfortable conversations need to be had about Jawgemo. This guy is really just not good. Said he was going to take G2 to a trophy and is BARLEY not the worst player on the team. Not saying he's the reason they're losing, but for the amount of praise he gets he is incredibly mediocre.

Promise you they wouldn't even beat BLG without Boaster.

Boaster is literally the most important person on the team?

What's that gotta do with anything

He's just the best

I just prefer a good game. I don't want to see PRX just steam roll their opponents. Though I lowk forgot wolves is still here, FNC won't beat them if they win here anyways.

G2 can play faster though much faster and adjust FNC don't change the way they play marco wise.

I disagree that used to be the case and mainly on defense, but their defense has gotten much better simply because they completely deny space. They'll fight for space every single time, and FNC rely on slowly taking space. If they can't win the team fight, it will actually be torture for FNC

PRX style will own them if they play, PRX have too much firepower for alfa to carry, and they're too fast for chron to get smoke kills.

Saying map pick doesn't really mean anything, this is a top 2 map for fnc, and they won both pistols and STILL barely won with Chronicle having like a total of 8 smoke kills lol.

They've won several times without zekken performing that's not the issue John needs to be on senti zellsis needs to be on flash and n4rrate needs to be on scan. Poaching verno might also be the move for zellsis or n4rrate tbh

derke is inconsistent? The only duelist at that level that's not is aspas and texture. And even aspas can crumble, which is pretty clear here... Zekken has been far more inconsistent this year than last year however, so it is jarring.

ight man. You'll see

Think you missed my point

Chill on NS. They're the least fraudulent Ascention team. XLG go on a run then Flop Boom pop off then flop. At least NS is consistent. Consistently can't beat talon...

They literally haven't won haven once in this tournament and have tons of footage of how they like to play?

Madrid MVP, Masters winning igl, One of the best players of emea 2024, One of the best anchors in amer, and a solid flex. They're clearly not shit players. If the make a shit team and the coach manages and shapes said shit team... the coach is probably....... you finish it

They would beat any of those teams.

You must love kaplan huh

It isn't bad at all his past few game on jett were fine. And worse case senario put him ona agent he actually plays... Run a normal comp and put him on sova a agent he's extremely good at and put n4rrate of jett. N4rrates jett on ice box is amazing.

L ball knowledge

(Impossible) These guys will win nothing until he learns.

SEN were warming up and are like notoriously a team that needs to warm up.

And wolves lost 2-0 to one of them. Crazy

SEN will beat G2 if they win. FNC lose if they win.

Counted at least 6 smoke spams/kills

more flashes

Chill trust in the process I have faith Kaplan isnt trolling THIS hard they must be frying in scrims

Bad Game for Zekken, might be john's worst game of the entire year and a troll ascent comp. Pretty bad look if they lose this.

SEN G2 rivalry makes up for it being a regional. I mean SEN has beaten them like twice is total so its a SEN 100T type rivalry but its there.

I agree...? They make the best use of what they're using, but why settle for great when you could be amazing. I also wouldn't call that hindsight. I've been saying that John looks uncomfortable on initiator for a while since kickoff/bangkok. SEN vs Liquid not even on bind idc about bind but on abyss was absolutely abysmal and painful to watch.

I mean tbh john had that same problem like really badly in kickoff. Again 100T they lost to time on split like 5 times.

John should never be on anything but senti and maybe scan he's not aggressive enough for these roles. Narrate is fine flexing.

Sure, but the coach is the one making game plans and studying how they should play the map with requires the management of their comps? Zekken is on waylay an agent he's never played mid-tournament that is very likely a specific comp to counter fnc. Let's not act like Kaplan doesn't have the starting ideas for the team and holds the overall management.

Sure... but they do help zekken and do even more than that lol I mean its vlr, so I should expect reactionary threads but still.

He's right, thought the comps and roles are the problem... maybe not the only problem if you wanna nit pick... but a lot of the nit picking you can do also comes down to the roles so its far and away the most prominent problem. A coach should never be the main reason you're doing bad.

You can't say "can any of you help zekken" when he wasn't even going positive last map...

I mean thats just not true...

You're right but he's not a fraud.

John being too fucking passive for this role is where they are

He's been solid so far in Toronto. Ill put faith in him again.

I mean... unbias casters is kinda the bareminimum no?

I'm not apologizing until he's consistent.

You're blind if you don't see this G2 vs SEN script

Geng literally use tejo what are you crying about...

they had a chance before he joined.

WOL 2-0
