i feel like leaf could play the raze/neon on maps needed unless he has said he really doesn't wanna play them since his role swap

and these teams also play each other so one has a guaranteed win (EG vs 100t and 100t vs LOUD)

Interviewer girl said "your playoff hopes are still alive" but theres no way they can make it right, best record they can get is 4-6 and the lowest win playoff team right now is EG at 4-4 so EG they would need to lose out, also all the 3 win teams (NRG 100t and LOUD) would also have to lose out so they don't have 4 wins and tie with furia

yea but one or two gamble stacks per game to win a round when yk where they are, or even hitting the right site when the other team stacks could have a huge impact especially in close games where its 13-11 or goes to overtime

I know people have said the crowd yelling can be a form of giving info, but whats stopping a team from having someone in the crowd hold up one hand if the other team is going a and the other if a team is going b. There's a bunch of ways to do this you could even have signals or multiple people. Obviously a stage setup makes this harder, but in an arena where there are fans all around you could setup fans across from you and have them do it.

crashies and victor dont play without each other thats what got them into this roster/role mess to begin with

not that he's playing bad but surely you'd want arguably ur best player on their best agents

why do we have the best initiator from last season on sage/yoru

I love fns as an igl but when it comes to gunfights he's a liability he could be a coach ngl

Drop the snake and best friend duo
Keep demon1 and ethan (i'd say keep som too but who knows if he will play w/out fns)
pick up some tier 2 talent and grind during off season with Ethan IGL or any of the tier 2 aimer igls

if they DONT overcook what would you guys like to see them play

For me its Victor - neon / Som - brim / Ethan - breach / FNS - cypher / Crashies - fade

Honestly don't know why they aren't having victor neon ethan breach crashies sova s0m omen fns kj seems so obvious

Snake obviously wants to ruin our goat FNS before he goes off to CS

y0y (yay ur my goat please come back the kids miss u)

that was crazy also a terrible whiff tho

Do they get 1st or 4th seed (doubt its something in the middle)

Also, if you qualify through champs points, but that would have you lower than your seeding based off your playoff performance Is it the next champs points team that gets in or next in playoffs. EX: In the scenario where champs points is 4th seed, Team with most champs points comes in 2nd in playoffs so they would be 2nd seed. Would the 4th slot go to the 4th place in playoffs or just the next champs points performer

honestly they should just start practicing abyss don't rely on this map anymore

I think they are probably better on the breach fade but the deadlock/cypher comp now is in the back of every team prepping vs them. Also it helps them so that kru cant just antistrat with the extra week off

hes actually just playing aimlabs rn

put the cape on

how long is Leo out cause i really doubt their chances if they don't get him back before playoffs

Americas - SEN LOUD KRU NRG

EMEA - Heretics FUT KC Vitality

Pacific - GENG PRX DRX RRQ

China - FPX BLG EDG DRG

Don't care how he plays its been too long since we've seen him on stage

calm down buddy

saw him twice and didnt react at all

OH HOW IVE MISSED THESE DAYS

when they need a gun later we will come back to this

I see the vision hard fight one site and have clove just try for one on the opposite site if u die u still got util for retake

yes predicting the masters winner to win even though they underperformed in Split 1 is definitely worse than predicting NRG who checks notes ALSO got "grouped" in stage 1 (SHOCKER) as well as replaced half their roster less than a month before this game. A 100t who have a decent shot but they are gonna have no practice just like SEN after Madrid. A G2 in a worse position than 100t. A disappointing and underperforming LEV. Loud with an even worse performance this season. KRU could be up there i guess. C9 EG MIBR and Furia are just not up to standard right now to contend, so I'd say its reasonable that SEN are the favorites this split

GENG show up and win pacific their first international trophy

ty

Does it start at 12:00 am pst or is that when the show match starts and it will actually begin later (cant remember how it happened in previous tournies)

With g2's relative success so far this year, what are some other ascension teams that you guys think can perform at a high level next year

Is this the first time a team has lost 3 times to one team in a tourney, i remember fnatic lost to loud twice champs last year but 3 times i think is unheard of

icy just gotta do that 100 more times then we rate him

i mean they just mute the crowd mic not that hard

i think a problem with crowd perception recently has been the home team doesn't have a team to support. CS dallas was crazy cause stewie being NA hero in the finals. Rn they're playing in china with zero home crowd representative plus cultural differences when it comes to crowd/audience etiquette

there have been some good crowds in Valo id say champs LA with eg the crowd was pretty good (although definitely a lower level than cs) as well as LOCK//IN brazil

also riot markets the game real differently, like the "f apeks" chant would never be allowed on a riot broadcast just cause of the nature of their brand and sponsors

he's been on t2 and was on the EG reserve roster last year, he's a solid player but if an org wants to win a championship your duelist basically needs to be texture/aspas/EG demon1 level where they just can take over and win games solo and i just don't think icy has that or will have it in the window g2 has to win

with nrg no but on EG it was there

im just saying demon1 but add any duelist with some aura and this team wins champs

lowkey they're typically pretty good

-$500 i will be taking my 5 ty

Pacific finally getting a trophy

prob gonna watch the game later today thought that that was a free win for FNATIC what happened?

Glad to see him casting a final his improvement casting this year has been great

script repeats itself

is there any spot to keep track of how many circut points all the teams have

is it crazier than EG making it last year with the coach knife kill

kru is good because they have not lost everyone else sucks its easy to understand really no one ever overreacts

i hate to say this cause i loved him on EG but based on this macro play these past games i really just dont think he has it in him and as long as they don't have a true igl this "super team" is gonna stay a mid team
