Hindsight is always 20/20
Chill bruh. Every team has their moments 😂
They looked good that day but this seems to happen once every 2-3 games. They are so inconsistent
This gameplay is horrendous. There are other teams miles better who deserve to win much more. Hopefully they can come back stronger tho! Also I think roster changes are needed very soon for M3C…
??? Acend have only been getting better since the inception of this new roster. Sure they have some rough patches but from what I see it looks promising.
Until proven otherwise I gotta go with victor.
Acend looking good. G2 falling off (expected), and M3C falling off. How is there no change?
I feel like it’s viable however it’s just not worth it to drop one of your initiators when they provide so much more util and value
Not really. It’s good but each season gets progressively worse after season 4
I think faze has a really cool playstyle too. Its cool to watch when its happening successfully
DRX - created the breach meta in general
Gambit - didnt exactly create this but they popularized have a lurking sentinel/viper on maps like bind and icebox
Optic - Once again they werent the first to use neon on maps but they used her the best and were the team to popularize her use on maps like fracture split and haven. I also think they were one of the few teams to adopt the chamber meta early and show how powerful he was.
Acend - Were using omen on split even when he was "shit" but showed the power he held with oneways
PRX - Revived the double duelist meta and probably popularized the use of Yoru on maps like bind.
c9 - First started using kayo on breeze during lcq and popularized his use heavily.
Acend - Made the "meta" bind comp and popualrized the use of a single initator, sage, and brim on the map
Yes it seems like ghost had an extremely good read on 100T. I do think that the kj util being countered wasn’t the only reason they lost icebox tho. Usually with a kj, viper, and raze it should be very easy to hold post plants but it just seems like they could not. Also on breeze I think ghosts aggression and willingness to just run it down helped them a lot and didn’t allow 100T to play and methodical as they like to. Overall I think that the ghost match showed some key weaknesses and faze have a really good chance of exploiting these weaknesses as they have the perfect traits to do so.
Thx man! I def think that sean and mikeshd prep is inane however I think that the staff team for faze has also been doing some serious prep on their end. It will def be a close series!
100T v Faze
100T up until their match vs Ghost were the best attacking team and had the best post plant win rate. 100T before their ghost match had a 51% win rate on atk when they got the first kill. They also had a 90% post plant win rate and won 46% of 4v5s. These are all extremely impressive stats. It seems that 100Ts attack success comes from being able to play the post plant position. On top of that it seems that they are extremely comfortable by winning approximately 50% of the 4v5s which is extremely impressive. It also seems that 100T have been thriving in pistol rounds. If we look at the ghost game, it seems that 100T struggled with their post plant holds (it is important to take in mind that ghost is the best retake team). Overall 100T seemed like the most balanced attack team this split as they do not rely too heavily on one individuals performance.
Faze has been the #1 team in retakes in their group. They have also have the worst pistol win rate in their group. Another important thing to keep in mind is prior to this week, faze remained winless without babybay or dicey match mvping. It seems that babybay has been thriving on the neon role and bringing in flyuh has been a huge upgrade in firepower as well.
When taking a look at this, it seems that faze and 100t are complete opposites. This will be an extremely interesting match too. It seems that Faze relies on individual performance a lot however they have gotten better at supporting their superstarts throughout the group stage. Faze have also been extremely proficient in retakes which may be a problem for 100t. 100t was the best postplant team in their group however when faced with the best retake team in their group they struggled heavily. Faze can take advantage of this. On the other hand 100t have been good at securing pistols whereas faze had only won 23% of their pistol rounds. 100T can take huge advantage of this. Faze also seem to be good at utilizing the chamber pick with dicey in order to get first bloods on the defensive side whereas 100T seem to play a more standart defense as they dont use chamber nearly as much as other teams. The contrast in defensive style will be interesting. Also Faze's fk round turnover rate is extremely good which will be a challenge for 100t to overcome. On the attack, 100T seems to distribute the fragging equally most of the time whereas on Faze most of the picks usually come from babybay dicey or flyuh. This is another stark contrast in playstyle that will be interesting.
When looking at map pool it seems that 100t are best on split, bind, fracture and breeze. The respective win rates are 75%, 83%, 100%, and 71%.
When looking at the map pool of faze their best maps are haven, ascent, fracture, and breeze. The respective win rates are 100%, 75%, 50%, and 100%.
Faze have yet to play split and permaban bind, and 100Ts bans float between ascent and haven. Assuming that the permabans go as predicted, bind and haven are presumably out of the map pool. I would assume that faze either go to fracture or breeze as they seems extremely comforable on those maps and 100t picks split since faze have never played it this split and it seems to be 100ts comfort pick. From there on every map is fair game to be in or out of the map pool.
Overall im hyped for this matchup. Any input on this analysis would be very helpful. Also i wanted to cite my source for some of the stats. please check out @weltisgames on twitter!
In the end i think that faze could end up taking this match up due to their prowess in fragging and their agression is the perfect counter to 100ts methodical playstyle. I think that faze has improved so much over the course of the group stage and this is the perfect place to show how they can frag out but still remain fundemental. I do think if it goes to a third map that 100t have a solid chance of taking the series. Overall an amazing matchup
Imagine losing a single map to the most washed team in eu. Jesus fnatic gonna repeat iceland then you emea people will get it through your thick skulls that fnatic is shit no matter which roster it is. LOUD IS CLEARING COPENHAGEN STAY HATING!
Can fans not support their favorite teams now????
Yea there will be a lot of really solid rosters and players getting dropped. I think a lot of the LG boys will either get picked up individually or as a team. I think TSM will go through a big rebuilding process too. I can see xset not getting a franchise spot and all those players are really solid too.
Kinda funny to see all those tsm fans who talked shit abt 100t losing to tsm. thank god they got humbled when looking at the group standings.
And people said they would win masters 1 when they cant even win against acend kekw
Bump. They somehow lost again 💀
Did someone from Emea fuck your mother? Is that why you hate them?
Emea occupies 90% of ur brain holy shit. This is almost as sad as trembo dickriding mwzera.
Eg instaban fracture cus faze moon insane on it
Faze most likely pick haven and EG does their homework on the map cus coach potter buff. 15-13 eg
Faze ban bind since they haven’t been good at that map whereas EG look insane.
RG pick icebox which is their comfort pick and beat faze 13-11 on it cus of role conflicts on the map for faze and they didn’t prep enough.

Why do you support this team? 💀
I think ur mother dropped u on ur head as a child.
I wouldn’t call it random. For the longest time NA remained stagnant with sen just dominating the domestic scene. Now teams are innovating with new comps, picking up smaller players, and improving daily. This is amazing for the NA scene and give it a new life. I would call the NA scene competitive, which imo is the best you can ask for as it pushes teams to get even better.
This is weirdo behavior.

We always knew he was insane but this is a whole other level.
Yea I’m pretty sure Zander’s mid rounding is very average. He mostly worked on the pre round plays and objectives whereas wippie was mostly mid rounding.
