they are in a slump rn and are clearly bad now
but how can u call that run a fluke
they beat prime prx , optic , drx and fnatic and online they beat M3C guild liquid
aint no way ur calling navi mid since cph when they get top 4 in champs and lock in
funny coming from a sentinels flair

and tbh even the "normal comps" they played looked out of form
they played normal ascent comp on old pearl
had kayo on bind
no sova / kj on ascent
they just looked like they lacked practice on those comps cuz they kept experimenting the regular season

meant player role like zyppan raze
shao sova/fade

no one is beating fnatic but that prx roster would be top 2

navi will paly normal comps again and they will look good

who will igl if ange1 is dropped? also who will play smokes
engh would be a good pickup for any team
but the -cned +d3ffo one has to be a troll

sen 2-0 kru

i think they should try marved KJ and pancada on smokes where KJ is needed

yea obviously but i think xeppaa might be the best stinger player itw

or maybe because cypher kit allows him to play the game how he wants to and get out with cages (LIKE A SMOKE WINK WINK)

c9 should have xeppaa play only stringer in a scrim
might actually be viable for economy and raze only close range duels

if they force kj on cypher viable maps anymore they are trolling
pancada is actually the win condition

my theory about pancada is , as he shoots he gets better like warming up ingame
and he barely gets to shoot on kj cuz he always lurks or plays retake
his viper and cypher look soo much better than his kj

i mean u dont know what maps SEN have preparded tho
i also thought after map 1 no way sen win fracture but sen look insane on it
they put in the work and i think they should have a good map pool if they perma haven
and if they win this they have a good chance to make it to finals and they will get 2 map bans
and their 1st pick should be good cuz of fracture/split/bind

dont wanna shit talk sykko or dephh but how the fuck do they look so much better with set strats , player role , general vibes?
kaplan has brought all the good things from ghost and they look insane

he always said he likes to play the 2nd guy in than entry multiple times on stream
so lets see before we jump to conclusions

wait he is actually bronze 3?
i thought it was a joke
how is it possible to be that bad when u watch pro play

i mean its possible if lev play like how they played at the end of the split

fnatic literalyl lost to liquid even tho it was a seeding match and they looked off on that day the gap in EMEA is way smaller than loud vs other brazilian teams

only if kru play more raze maps and actually put him on raze

would rather have a good org than a guard with no resources in the league next year ngl
better for players and for sponsors

g2 has a good chance tbh
would love to see optic comeback but i dont think h3cz was happy about being left out of the partnership system last year

too many inter regional matches and the matches that are supposed to be hype just arent cuz its groups

SEN / 100t in americas
maybe NRG if ardiis contract runs out end of the year
but most probably i think he will get a offer from emea team

prx agreed
maybe i just dont like drx anymore cuz they let me down too much
its so sad the potential they had in 2021 and 2022 and for them to make 0 finals

then they clearly dont deserve to make it to a final
all the problems they have are cuz of them
not cuz of outside factors

why are u guys acting as if sentinels c9 are so much better than navi giants?

alfa

bro what
the ascent and breeze was good enough not be worst final

also sen vs fnc literally only has "FIRST EVER LAN EVENT FINAL" going for it
so idk how u can rank it so HIGH up

the best final is def loud vs fnc with crazy comeback from both the teams

if chamber meta ever came back yay will literally solo carry any team to a top 3 international

sen vs fnc so overrated
the optic vs loud champs 2022 finals was way better with storyline aswell

ngl jing roza ults alot
but he has the best raze movement and he basically gets his raze ult every 3 rounds

they got insane fracture and ascent
rest all they seem beatable

ya i know?
im talking about drx vs optic

replying to the i miss optic thing
optic drx

they beat ur flair 3 times in the closest fashion
why do u miss them
wrong thread

flood retakes are good against prx cuz they use all util to get onto site

threw pistol and threw the 1v2

i mean maybe in the future
but def not now
they are losing cuz they are so out of touch with meta and the roles are just so bad
if they underpeform in champions then maybe u can consider roster changes

their playstyle is so reliant on their opponents respecting them that when u have players like aspas jingg derke f0rsaken even saya from t1 not showing respect and peeking them they just crumble
ardiis is probably the most passive jett i have ever seen , he went from playing so confident on fpx to this where he farms ecos and has the least impactful kills

he stayed close to see if cgrs got spike or not and after he realised cgrs didnt have time he ran back and threw cove if he ran with knife or didnt miss his cove he would have won
unlucky

bro he missed the cove so cgrs knew he didnt cross to T spawn
actually unlucky
he got 3 that round and he still lost them it

PLAY OF THE TOURNAMENT

even if they beat nrg i feel like their map pool is too little for them to win a BO5

man i feel so bad for them
if smth was here they would have made finals
hopefully smth gets his visa for champions

first lets play normal comps and win lcq before thinking about champs
but yea we 100% have the player quality to win

bro its actually funny
"u guys barely won be humble"
if eg luckily won they would have shown 0 respect
or its the "fnatic superteam vs underdogs"

20-9 in fb
what u on?
he played trash today and still went +11 in fb
just wait for grand finals

with 2 map bans fnatic will roll eg
