While Chet is certainly part of that the whole team is to blame.
Mibr has frod and bzkA but they aren’t winning shit, coach’s alone don’t make a team good

True, but keep in mind losing 13-4 on sunset was the player’s fault and the player’s fault only.

Absolutely, but imo he is still a good coach, he just needs to stop trying to play perfect all the time to the detriment of his players

They started slow last year too. I hope if they fix their roles they can focus on coordination, as teams with messed up roles often lack coordination.

TL:DR
Every nrg roster isn’t optic and Chet shouldn’t force them to be. That aside he is a good coach and certain optic players have said publicly that he helped them improve.

This might be a long post so don’t read if u don’t want to.

In 2022, a big part of optic’s success came from always playing meta comps. They fully accepted chamber, mastered neon first, adopted fade very quickly, learned pearl fast, renovated the bind meta, etc. optic’s players were willing to sacrifice individual skill and comfort to FORCE meta roles, as u saw marved playing kayo and fns playing every role except duelist.

That’s Chet’s biggest strength and weakness. He still attempts to force his roster to play to the meta and the standard “perfect” way to play rather than letting players play comfort roles. If it works out, it looks amazing and u get a team consistently ahead of the meta like optic.

We saw this at the start of last year when nrg started 1-3 because Chet attempted to switch players off their comfort picks to a more perfect meta/role composition. This is part of why ardiis struggled on nrg, as they should have let him flex off Jett and let victor play Jett on some maps, since victor is a horrible Kayo and a good Jett.

He has tried it again with the new nrg roster, and once again it is struggling. I hope he lets it go eventually.

Nah bro this team just has aimers tbh I’m really worried vs any team that can shoot back

Most undeserved playoffs run I’ve ever seen but they have lots of individual talent so hopefully they can become a super team

Yeah Icl nrg are only winning against absolute plumbers so far

Ong @fns come here bro

So why are u such a loser than ur angry at another team?

Don’t cry bro sen can still make playoffs

Since Fns shakes everywhere and misses, he can learn aim lessons from the king of shaky aim asuna
Since asuna is sometimes braindead, he can learn to play smarter and not overhead from meganind FNS

Let’s do a father son boot camp

That’s what I was thinking until I saw him in ranked

Ragebait

Nrg aren’t playing well either tbh

EG are good after going 0-3 and winning one match?

Is it just me or do Americas look a lot worse than last year? Nrg, 100t, and EG looks mid, sen looks a bit shaky, furia looks shit as well

Victor definitely better at Tokyo imo, 1.09 vs 0.99 rating and Vic top fragged half the matches

Crashies was only good during domestic play, he was worse at Tokyo and champs

He played quite well was their second best player last year

Definitely not overall but as an entry victor clears
Victor also deffo a top 5 raze Americas

Imagine old loud here

Might be inevitable at this point

Optic was good but they lost to x10 twice, to guild, nearly lost to boom, and nrg lost to mibr, last years leviathan, prx with a sub, and bilibili twice

Optic core are terrible at not throwing to underdogs as well

Yeah 💀

Very unbiased

Optic core are notorious at crumbling against underdogs

Bro is SO happy LMAO

Don’t cry bro

Mibr have the chance to do the funniest thing ever

Bro put the Madrid winner coach on fraud watch after 2 losses LMAO

Yeah it’s Sacy fault and not the entire team for choking a 10-2 on bind

Never lost to sen and she proved it

Nah bros locked in willing with all his energy for nrg to lose to mibr

Holy fuck gigachad potter

Now nrg loses to mibr watch

EG and mibr have a chance to do the funniest thing ever

We also can’t say for certain they are the worst league until after Shanghai lol

At smokes absolutely, but zellsis fits sen better and can play init too

Why should the last match be single elim? As far as I remember qualification matches to masters have never been single elim ever.

So why shouldn’t every match be single elim then, in groups and playoffs
International matches should also have all matches be single elim since winners win and losers lose

Loud and sen, especially sen would have still gone through a double elim format, as they were clearly better than nrg or EG at kickoff
Doesn’t change the fact the format is poor

He’s good but I think som is better

Pancada speaks Spanish?

If sen had an off day like they did vs leviathan and lost one match they would have been eliminated too, it’s a bad format regardless of team

There’s no reason why a 4 team playoffs can’t have double elim with the two losers (nrg and EG) playing each other and then playing loud for a lower final (Madrid qualification)

If u didn’t go through playins though u got punished (I.e. EG and nrg)

Replace Mazino with som as well and get the most stacked roster ever

This match absolutely matters being a top 2 seed from groups means u don’t risk single elim and u only need one win to make Shanghai
