None of those are a guaranteed upgrade over Keiko, you could have stopped at the word Bonkar, give him 48 hours he can save any roster. Simply the goat.

I always think of that fit1nho clip, great casters always help

Poach Bonkar back to EMEA, rename team to Lonk

idk man i'm a TL fan and I bet half my paycheck on NAVI winning

yay is a better agent since Ardiis still made it to masters

kiNgg sweeps all

unfortunately for him red car will be dropping 71

Clearly NAVI is not the point here. This whole conversation is about how losing Upper Round 1 moves you on the the same place as losing Upper Round 2, Giants could have qualified for Tokyo by only winning this game in the entire playoffs bracket, which IS a lacklustre way to qualify.

Is a bit weird that you can qualify for Tokyo going 1-2 though

bro said CHRONICLE is washed?

Cry?? Brazil try not to think everyone hates them challenge (IMPOSSIBLE)

strat book missing the last chapter

you just described exactly how it IS retroactive

if C9 had worse results but were still top seed then I would have wondered the exact same thing, you think everyone and their mother is a brazil hater?

You play statistically weaker teams early in the bracket as seed 1

Compared to C9, significantly worse round difference & worse map difference while both being 8-1, but still #1?

edit: Since when did group stage head to heads retroactively matter? Bros dropped 7 maps vs 4 and that all gets dismissed for a match played in the first week of the groups?

Scream / Nivera historically have a freakishly good win rate against turkish teams

A classic Virgin Media blunder

kronikel win 1v5

Oh of course, the incredible pace of progress in women's esports in recent years will just suddenly ground to a halt before the terrifyingly immovable men's T2 teams.

Yea I thought the same thing when they were set to play with Twisten but this is worse with just 5 days for him to get comfortable with the role change. Russ played full on support roles and they have looked at 2 duelist only players to replace him? Either Guild didn't look at the 100T boi mistake or these guys are BOTH secret support role masters.

Confused why they have looked at 2 duelist only players to fill the hardcore support role with 5 days notice. I don't think this will work at all.

He benched himself because he was being made to play a role he was not comfortable on or enjoyed, of course those stats aren't exemplary.
