They don't have numbers in their name. they have no impact on the study

nope. The evidence helps to form an opinion

It was T1 vs G2 in the grand final of the last international. Four out of 4/5 teams that have numbers in their name are currently in the green during groups, and 2g look to be on the right track. v1c and s0m are some of the top controllers by rating. N4RRATE is doing well for himself, and V1nnyy is an outlier. In pacific, foxy9, dos9, and t3xture are top players, and kr1stal seems to be doing well. SugarZ3ro is just barely below a 1 rating. Wild0reo0 d4v41 sappearsto just be there to balance it out. Wo0t is a top player in EMEA. (I left out China cause I haven't watched a single China game.) It seems like when I look at the stats, if you have numbers in your name, you seem to be either good or bad. Do you think it would help out some teams to pick up a player with numbers in their name?

i also like asuna its just hard to get a feel on either duelist when they have to switch.

To be fair it's hard when you're forced to split time with asuna.

watching the VP game rn and ICY is playing what did EG do to him

I'm confused about how you got this. Is this based on the core players? Cause NRG had a team before Optc died in Val. Envy now has a new team, so I feel like you can't just place all 3 together. It's the same with NAVI. They had a team before, but now they are PRX?

I feel like VAL and CS are going through this phase where IGLs are now supposed to be good fighters but communicate effectively. Would you rather have a great IGL who doesn't aim very well or a great fighter who just so happens to be an IGL for the team?

complexity has a history of not giving the best teams

flor. legit one of the mechanical goats. her rep isn't that high tho cause of GC

I think this has been pointed out, but Furia hasn't even tied the map wins that the YFP core of guys got when they subbed. That's kinda crazy, seeing as they are a full-time partnered team. Dog on them all you want, but LOUD EG NRG those teams that people will joke about their fall off and stuff,f but was there ever a time that Furia could fall off? this feels like when the browns went 1-15 and then went 0-16 the next year.

That's not even the first timethat'ss happenedWellll not in that way NA had so some many people lie and send in ai/stock photos and shit. I remember when one of them made it to the round of 8(when GC didn't do double elim) and some of the top North American teams exposed it.

Like, yeah eSports is bi,g but thats only ever like 10-25% of players at the tippy top of timesLikeke when the world cup happened for Fortnite or when CSGO had its last major but in no way can eSports keep a game afloat and are even sometimes why they die cause it costs a lot of money for events and if people complain about games It just allienates people.

crossfire is really huge and china and asia so I don't think it'll die in those regions for a very long time.

flyuh is a rookie and look at his rating when he plays sova.

Prolly just adjusting to the new system give him time its not like he's expected to top frag on that team so he just needs to get his mind right for the role.

The best way to get rid of those involved is to not give them attention. I mean juvenile not the person making the claims. But it would be weirder for them to bring up a sexual harassment case in a comedy podcast where they are just trying to have fun. Ive noticed quite a few people hate them for just having opinions and having fun with I don't understand.

Well yeah but EG and demon1 were the only people other than T1 with carpet and sylvan that came to mind.

I cannot think of any teams/players other than DRX or EG that really helped their career by either having a 6th man or being a 6th man. Sorry if my knowledge is a little limited, but I can only think likeDemon11 or like when DRX had someone I forget who- that only came to play Sova on haven or something.

damn we bring ring culture to esports kinda sad

Mitch might not be the best fragger, but he's able to rangle C9 in and isn't even like the bottom of the bottom for IGLs
Brawk may not be underrated, but he gets lost in the Verno stuff.
Lz another guy I hear good things about cause of 2g

I don't know the exact rule, but even then, C9 is second, according to Riot. Also its a bit weird cause 100t was shown ahead of sen on the stream

no c9 is up cause of round difference even the stream showed it

first one is map then round then head to head

This game put them in a great spot. They're second in the group, and the Furia game should go well. This just leaves the G2 game, which I don't think G2 will take seriously because they won't be playing for anything.

what has mitch done to you

and mada gets stage experience with brawk so it'll be easier

Leaf as your weakest link is a pretty good thing. and I don't think N4RRATE is the weakest link of sen.

a wins a win a lose a lose

MIBR lost to g2 also

2 of them made masters

nah i feel like NRG have the players that could win this game but c9 have a better team

2-1 NRG idk i feel like this is the game that g2 lose

might be loud

its the only way eg can have sponsors

bro thinks eg gets paid by there sponsors. bro eg pays them

If you could go back in time and change any roster change your favorite team did, what would you change about it?. For me, it would be when C9 picked up, yay. This signing then led to the dropping of Leaf, and yay, I don't know who I'd want them to pick. u,p probablybe like Tex or Eeiu or something like that. I know someone's gonna say, what about Tenz? He was on C9 for far too long for his good, and I'm happy he found SEN cause I don't think Tenzzz would have ever wanted to play on C9 after what happened in cs and then in VAL.

Yeah, they're really good, but every time I hear about them or watch them, it's like a crazy upset in the groups or first round of playoffs, and then they lose everything else. I hope they find the right time to shine.

I know them as like a crazy tier 1/1.5 CS team right but are they good in tier two val?

Renualt the parent company sponsors vitality

I mean Renualt sponsors vitality, so it's still a possibility.

sayf and less do an f1 race while doohan and gasly play a match of val seems fair

i thought that was what he was talking about ngl

Vitality partnered with Renault in the past, and Renault has an F1 team under Alpine. So, do you think that Vitalyy could ever do a crossover with the Alpine F1 tea?.

2g some might call it

From what we've seen, who would win if the worst team from each group were to be placed in a tournament?

I dont know about acend but optic was because of LoL and how optic weren't the best there.

I just can't see Riot cutting achamp'ss winning team. I know that EG has like 5 fans, but I just can't think of Riot getting rid of them at the first re-evaluation.

theres no way they get rid of EG. if they do that I feel like it would just be bad for Riot.

I mean do you have a team that would be better?
