Yes, it’s bad, ofc, but it isn’t as bad as people make it to be

A lot of it as to do with how quiet IZu and Sylvan are, somewhere in the documentary Buzz express how he wants them to “speak up”. I don’t think this is a shade towards them, Buzz wants to win, so he wants to hear perspectives, one example is 2023 Fnatic, where during the lock-in grand finals on icebox during a timeout Derke is yelling at Leo to speak up more, it’s not a bad thing.

The jokes/banter sucks, you telling your player after the match that they might as well have had no hands during a map is disgraceful, imagine joking with a player like Xenom that he couldn’t shoot his gun for a map, or Juicy, they are quiet players, they basically are forced to take it, which is bad, especially since there were only 1-2 compliments back, which was highlighted by Sliggy

The Buzz and Stax “passive aggressive” narrative is also a little overblown. The “did you shoot” argument doesn’t have the context it needs, Buzz brings it up because they plan on doing the same setup as the round where Sylvan holds the front of the smoke, the “did you shoot” was a way of prying Sylvans perspective. The pre round map selection with Stax saying “don’t get sylvan to do the map veto, we would lose!” Also needs more context, because it’s more of a “Oooo Sylvan will lose us the map veto because he’s too quiet!” Which I already mentioned.

Yall need to keep in mind, this was a SUPER TEAM for a LEGENDARY ORG, they want to win more than anyone, obviously frustrations are bound to happen because everyone wants to win in their own right, but lots of things are exaggerated by the community. Obviously the situation sucks, but it happens when you start losing after winning so much

I started fucking with you on the last part

Net

Yeah but Champs is where the expected turns into the unexepected. Fnatic are labeled as Chokers, but during champs they won’t be chokers, so the chokers become the non chokers who become the chokers who become the non chokers

My original prediction but now I think Liquid or EDG will not have the time to integrate their players

5-6th with DRX, win groups convincingly, fall out to FPX and LOUD

He already does that

1. Fnatic (expected)
2. Gen G (kinda expected, a little)
3. FPX (very unexpected)
4. LOUD (curveball)

If Kyu can igl, he could probably also mid round. Also Zellsis could just move to AC or smth

He could also just replace Zellsis and put Johnqt back to sentinel

I mean yeah it’s obviously Gen G

Sometimes I wonder how old some of these users actually are

Kyu 100% is

EDG 2024?

These guys are so stupid man, he’s talking about which team is the greatest of all time, projected by the end of each year. Like 2021’s best team was Gambit, but 2022 optic was better than 2022 gambit, so by the end of 2022 optic is the best team oat, but 2023 Fnatic was better than them, so by the end of 2023 Fnatic was the best team oat, but 2023 Fnatic had a better year than 2024 GenG, so Fnatic is still the best team oat by the end of 2024

Like, I just want my radish bro

I hate it when I order Korean fried chicken wings and they DONT give me the sweet radish on the side

Such a confident player for a rookie tbh, even more than 2022 Suygetsu

Nah it can’t be

Huh. I wonder why

Who?

Although I don’t think they fluked their way to top 3 at toronto , I think they just had an insane purple patch. I think they will end up fourth in China

B is fat
I is skinny

Forsaken
Kaajak
Lukxo/t3xture

I have a job

They won’t let me

Yeah I like my family tho

That’s a horrible lie they would never believe that

c9 has gotta be the biggest question mark in tier 1 as a whole rn

We are now at a point where my laptop can’t run 2 games of comp before dropping a few frames (I play on 30 fps btw), I can’t buy a new one because my parents won’t let me, how do I convince them to get a new one?

VERDICT: after viewing everyone’s suggestions ima just wait until senior year to get a new laptop

Prob not but even if it was you’d get match fixing allegations almost immediately

Dayum really? That’s crazy

Bump I love what you are doing

Are you retarded? Prime Kaka was literally in 2007, therefore fits between 2005-2025

Nats playing for two different teams at champs

I mean with Flash Initiators their importance is heavy in NA (specifically), apac, and China. But looking at LATAM and EMEA flash specific initiators aren’t as important due to the preference of playing Yoru

Koi shade

I Think at his peak he was top 5 players in NA, but that was like 4 years ago

Ramgi is REALLY GOOD, even if he is in t2

You must be 14 if you haven’t watched Kaka play

Babybay has more kills than Zekken and N4rrate COMBINED

SHEEESH HE WON THEM THAT

He brings flexibility, which they REALLY needed

Tenz —-> Bang is a side grade
Sacy —-> N4rrate is a downgrade

He definitely at an inform Alfa, he had PRIME alfajer

“Handsome” didn’t know that was your type tbh

Nah thank Karmine Corp, or 2023 LCQ Sen, or 2022 paper Rex for starting the usage of Yoru

Ofc you’d know

Bro went from sentinels starboy to getting diffed by the goat Babybay

Goldenboy: “I’m here joined by our newest rookie: Babybay!!”

Goldenboy: “So Babybay, it looked like you had a really rough start on Corrode, what brought you to bring it back?”

Babybay: “You know, I have always done well on ascent, so it was just nerves in the first map”

Goldenboy: “So looking at previous games earlier this week rookies seemed to drop 30 on the first map and tend to drop off a bit afterwards, like with Sato and Spike, how does it feel to drop 50 on ascent after a weak start on Corrode?”

Babybay: “Yeah at first I was very nervous but then I realized the team I was going against is shit, I will personally take us to champs.”

Goldenboy: “Well there you have it, Babybay folks!”
