ah yes, the very well regarded international demons cortezia and verno

It’s funny though

i’ll give you that one since technically you’re right, but it’s really just the same team

if optic is considered a superteam, so would envy, which wasn’t a superteam (no team was at the time)

either way, point still stands for other teams like eg and gen

again, hindsight

we could consider optic
22/eg 23/ gen 24 super teams because of how good they performed in their respective seasons but all of their players were highly unproven before that point

if teams are made including those kinds of cores alongside internationally recognized talent, THAT is a superteam

the only real “superteams,” which are rosters built with pieces of recognized international talent, are fnc 2023 (which worked) and nrg 2024 (which didn’t work). i will also add vit 2025 though id argue it isn’t, but i think it’s close

no iteration of loud was ever a superteam because they all contained a lot of unproven rookies to the scene

hindsight harry, before 2022 no one knew who loud was

only 2 players of that squad were internationally relevant

none of these teams would've gotten a series

aspas gets near similar placements without a superteam (loud 22 wasn't a superteam)

champs 24: 1.14 (11th, highest on his team)
shanghai: 238 CS (6th), 1.17 k/d (4th), 0.21 fkpr (3rd)
champs 23: 1.15 (8th, highest on his team)
tokyo: 1.11 (10th, highest on his team)
reykjavik 22: 1.18 (4th, highest on his team)

even in his "shit" tournaments, he's only ever had one outside of this one where we went negative (0.99)

tbh i consider that both consistent and top tier

admitted derke is a superteam merchant

team how do you fucking go 0-4 and lose to wolves of all teams

bro is not coming back sadly

how is he a fraud

this is his only bad tournament

how good is sevire

Who cares abt that, aspas is the goat because he's been the most consistently good

this is the only point in his career where anyone can say he played bad

Yeah but he's always been good

This was a one-off

to be fair aspas has literally never done well in the second lan of the event but always turns up for the third

by champs we'll have forgotten about this event when he starts doing good again

real

recency bias is crazy

He needs to go back to that, that's how his teams become the best in americas

Chose money over long term success </3 not my goat
needs to let go of s0yf igl quickly before it's too late

3/4
TH is shit

if derke so great, why he didn't go toronto?

verno 100% punched someone and it left a mark so mibr don't wanna show that

0-4 actually

bro got farmed by the french and he hasn't even reached zywoo yet

not yet

Nah just not overreaction

the cs team is about to qualify to stage 3 of major over the "goat" s0mple

china fps is fucking BACK

Why mad

their first international event they went 0-2

it all comes full circle

so far t3xture

Liquid joins them tmr

"not even close" 0/8

#5

aspas will place 3rd and the cycle continues

i'll keep it a buck, my goat would never lose 0-2 to china

All good, this always happens at masters 2

we wait for champs, that's when we will know for sure

he is still the goat

aspas bombing out in second lan is expected

we wait for champs

Chill bro i'm baiting i was rooting for eg the whole time

GUARANTEED PLAYOFFS

if aspas baits like normal then mibr win this series

goat of statpadding

mashed potatoes

I still root for nrg

y0y stole eg's spot after dashing with shorty at 11-11

0/8

tbh the whole team is playing bad

yay less over tenz?
