i've seen a lot of nrg fans talking about nrg winning the upcoming series with sen with such certainty... completely delusional take, especially with how close all the top teams in americas are. i think the game may be close but sen will take it for sure based off of a few things. first, the optic core is completely washed namely victor and crashies, their performances entire last year were subpar just as the team was and IS rn. next, a lot of people in favor of nrg winning are using the anti strat argument......... this is such cope for shit teams, an assumption based off of nothing, we don't even know if nrg were actually hiding strats and sen most definitely has new strats cooked for playoffs. chet couldn't even anti strat BLG with FNS one of the greatest igls of all time and now they have a clearly less accomplished igl (ethan) with subpar midrounding, so even if they are trying to anti strat what tells you it'll work against a team 10 times better with more firepower. nrg also struggled against both c9 and furia, really only won because of firepower diff against furia. which leads me to my next point that sen have arguably equal or probably MORE firepower, with tenz being one of the greatest mechanical aimers in all of t1, zekken who's on yuki aim and probably the best or top 3 raze in t1, lastly johnqt whos midrounding is definitely better than ethans with better mechanical skills. sen also has a better mental and comms with the edition of zellsis to their roster, with a more coordinated team who have tight bonds. a lot of sen fans were gaslighted by delusional nrg fans into thinking sen is the underdog here(clearly not), and i'm disappointed in that. repost this thread whenever you see a delusional nrg fan.
