tbf they just got together a month ago. they made nrg sweat though

you seriously picked a team that got together a 1month ago??? over the optic core???

wtf was that jumpshot. man looked like Steph curry out there

i think it's the roles. i think put sheydos back on that flex role since he looks really good

lol hahahahaha im dead

see when FNS on a 1v3 position with no way to win, he backed off and saved?

see when NRG on a 3v5 with no way in, they backed off and saved?

try on unwinnable rounds iron???? open ur monitor, think, use ur brain. save lockdown for what? they just gonna back off and explore other option lol. literally unwinnable round and having iron in here complain about not trying

see when they tried a 3v5 retake and lost the round?

that was not a winnable round crashies has ult and time was ticking
and they have to clear all of site

and i assumed you have an american brain after you said Ronaldo doesn't show up in big occasion, like every game doesn't matter.
maybe you need more than 18 years to dissect what's right and wrong to say when talking about football.
truthfully, i ain't a ronaldo rider defending ronaldo, im actually a big Messi fan. Even I think Ronaldo showed up more in elimination games. how about this, if you are actually british like you said, then instead on basing everything on stats like you do in crickets or whatever, watch the game, the FULL game. dont go on youtube and watch highlights, don't go to your team's stadium and stay asleep for 2 hours eating hotdogs, instead watch the game and see how impactful your players are to the game

Also this is football not basketball or American football. This is American talking right here. You don’t watch enough football to understand the game, how it plays. Wtf do you mean about not doing it when it matters most? In football, every minutes matter. It’s not basketball where the first 2 quarters doesn’t matter. Football score doesn’t say 95-89. In football, every game matters, every goals matter, every yellow cards matter sometimes. It’s not NBA where you can rest your starting 5 for a couple of games for them to be ready for the playoffs, it’s not the NFL where you can get rest in game, come back in and play again. Pls for the love of god, watch the game, appreciate greatness, and not be a dumb American pls

jesus... honestly, they might do better against rrq

fabio grosso won the world cup... thomas muller won a world cup... di maria just won one... do that make them better than ronaldo? why does the world cup winner status mean so much to people?

and yet, he was the one who carried them to ucl finals. this isn't the nfl or the nba, every game in the knockout stage, the number of goals scored matters, everything matters. Real wouldn't have ucl if ronaldo didn't carry them to the finals. stop actually looking at stats and watch his journey to see how clutch he is

most clutch player in the history of football... i ain't a ronaldo hyperfan, but when it mattered, he didn't show up? get your fact checked first

i still dont understand why they benched Cancelo and brought off Ruben Neves. watching Bruno in that second half he just looked hopeless, he couldn't get stuff done because he had to do the dirty work without neves there helping him

orgless team... do your research better pal. Or watch cs before making any comments about it

im betting they are coming back for revenge. Unlike Sentinels, they grinded from being unknown to greatness. They gonna grind

It’s 1 game. You win some, you lose some

Cuz the winners have a match in 15 minutes

no it wasn't. boring and annoying af

oh you weren't here in the astra meta. good for you man. good for you

i thought the liquid roster is basically confirmed?

EMEA and NA still has so many good FA left on the market that EG, KOI and heretics shouldn't be considered "weak"

he's played astra before, and fns would be the one playing viper. i mean he used to main smokes before hazed came

so because of 2 insane maps from will, people thinks he's better than asuna now? like everything and anything asuna did before that disappeared? so dumb its annoying.

nah i think they already said that victor and crashies are a package deal

oy did i utter one word about him being bad? at least it takes a brain to read you know?

well...

love him but no he's not. it's still Asuna

that's a lock already

but i thought optic's haven wasn't their best map. it has always been Bind and Fracture as their best map. And with their pearl looks like the best itw

Optic: Their Breeze just got so much better out of nowhere, haven't seen their icebox in a while but their ascent, especially on attack, feels so disjointed; makes me feel like unless they have something on icebox, their ascent won't hold vs LOUD. Bind is still world-class for them. As for Haven, this map has slowly made its way to the top of optic's map pool. Also FNS's hater, shut the f up. Ridiculous calling on Haven and Breeze, great map on bind. yay is still yay, Victor turned up at the most crucial time, Marved showed his peaked form on Haven, showing why he was considered the best controller itw. crashies's impact on the first 2 maps was unbelievable.

DRX: great tournament from them, took a massive gamble and stuck with the same roster. Beating FPX convincingly and taking Optic to 5 maps are such great achievements from a roster we said were chokers. excited to see what's next for them next year. Mako was a demon, putting himself as one of the best, if not the best, controller itw. Great tournament from Zest, stax and Buzz. But the most surprising player from this team has to be Rb, especially on that last map.

with the buff to the flash, it's a lot harder to dodge it now

1. Berlin Gambit (prime nats and chronicle was sth else)
2. current Optic (yay is fucking demon)
3. current DRX (have always loved their ideas and execute)

HM: Berlin 100T (prime Asuna was a god)
Acend Champs 2021 (cNed, prime zeek)

jesus the script can't be any clearer

ouch...

they don't know how to use it. it's such a good comp on defense for retakes with kayo sova and fade. and on attack it does limits them a bit, but since it's ascent and mid is so important, that comp is great at taking mid and do a split push into site

so funny how people truly undervalued the igl like it's a toss away role, not knowing how important it is for a team. it's stupid sometimes hearing these arguments about fns is dogshit because he can't frag, when most of the time, he's setting yay up for a frag, he's setting his team up for success. and the roles as well. KJ, Viper (no util that can help in a 1vX fight), fade/breach (their role is to set their teammates up for success, or for info gathering). frag do matter, but not that much for an igl. we don't go around and say ange1 needs to frag to help FPX, we don't go and say "boaster has to frag to help fnatic". we dont go and say saaddak has to frag to help LOUD. all of them are great igl, but they don't need to frag to be good. boaster is always trying to call and set derke, alfa to frag; saaddak is always calling and setting aspas, less, sacy and pancada up for success (map 1 first half he was at the bottom, and everyone praises his name). ange1 is always trying to set up the likes of shao, suygetsu and ardiis to frag. fns is doing the same thing with yay, victor, marved. why are you blaming your IGL for a loss? why aren't you blaming someone like marved (hasn't been nearly as good as people had hoped for), or even victor (this match: 4/9 FK/FD)

keyword: was. even in Reykjavik, you can see his changes even when he uses jett.

name those world-class igl that is known for fragging instead of excellent play-calling?

uhm... yay's playstyle isn't suitable for entrying. but i get your point

no they don't he's top 3 in the world as an igl. he doesn't need to frag to be effective on the server. question is: where is marved this entire tournament?

stop complaining, when they win and he bot frag, people would sing his name "fns is the best igl in the world" but when they lose, literally optic fans call for fns's head every time "fns is so bad, learn to aim" shut up and watch the game. like you can do 95% what fns can do. ever heard of anti-strating?

go back to iron and talk there since the only thing you know in 5v5 tac shooter is fragging

18

so are you just talking hindsight now? why don't we talk about the first 3 people he killed and brought it down to a 1v1/2v1? what more do you want him to do?

like top 8 is really good, they faced two of the best teams in the world and he's disappointed that Liquid went out? they beat paper rex for crying out loud

"his playstyle is "boring", not that flashy, no incredible clutches,..." normal hater would say that. but he's the best in the game, there's no doubt about that anymore.
