I think both teams are equally skilled in a completely non bias way. I’m a tsm fan but I consider myself to be a pretty non bias person. I’m making power rankings for the group stage for fun if you want to check it out and see. Regardless while we are 4-0 vs 100t and 100t did beat guard and xset I don’t think it’s fair to say who is better than the other this way. Each team has their own play style as well as their good and bad days. 100t beat guard when they were on a bad day and guard beat us when we were on a bad day. Y’all played really well today but I do think xset had an off day today. Cryo was terrible map 1 and zekken didn’t play as well in map 2. That’s not to take away from 100t’s win. Will played insane and bang came up with so many big plays. In end I think everyone in group a is pretty much on the same skill level. It just depends who pops off harder, who has a better day, who prepped more, things like that. No point in drawing these kinds of comparisons. It just makes each teams fan base hate another for no good reason. Congrats on y’all’s win today. Hope we make playoffs so we can play again.
I agree with most of what you said, but I think XSET having an off day was also due to how 100T played on Map 1 Breeze. 100T had good reads on Breeze and played well as a team, which made it very hard for XSET to get rounds in the first half. Cryo had a bad Map 1 because 100T had good reads on his positioning. I think that has a significant role in "XSET's off day".
I agree with the rest. Guard was definitely not playing well against 100T and Ghost (seemed like they couldn't get the new roles to work well for them).
