Edit: I meant underdog runs
deluxton [#2]SEN @ Reyjkavik??
Best team in the world at this point, didn't drop a single map at Masters, won the tournament and then everything turned to shit from there. Is that not the definition of a honeymoon run??

they didnt immediately turn to shit, they still won the challengers for masters 3

Yeah fair but winning domestically vs internationally is a complete different ball game. People thought The Guard were done when they dominated domestically and then flopped on LAN. By the way I am actually a fan of SEN so there is no hate coming from me
Sprouts [#3]Crazy that you mentioned honeymoon runs without putting Fnatic, also I'd put Liquid after adding Nivera in LCQ+Champs
What will you expect from number 1 scream fan.

the difference is FNC always goes to playoffs unlike kru

But KRU doesn't change rosters after every event. FNC got a buff after adding Magnum and Derke, after adding Braveaf, and then again after adding Alfajer and Enzo. They are the best example of a honeymoon team

nah liquid were considered favourites by some to win champions since they just won homegrounds and lcq. fnatic were always hyped
Olofboost [#12]Every Fnatic run was a honeymoon run
If they do -Mistic +someone cracked for Champions, they'll repeat once again
Mistic isn’t the problem. It’s iglling/coach as much as I like both of them. (Before someone says boaster is the the reason fnatic got top 4, I am not questioning his performance. His ingame performance was amazing) . There seems to be a problem occurring when there happens to be a time constraint, and that is one of the main factors to conquer to win an international lan tournament. They need to rely less on prep work, much like the system D00mbr0s and ANGE1 have for FPX. They had little to no anti-strat going into the final, they could only make tiny micro adjustments. D00mbr0s mentioned in the press conference: prep goes out of window for a 5 map game; they have to rely on on-the-fly strats, and key timeouts + improvisations to sustain the substance. Another dilemma for Fnatic is, crumbling under pressure, and failing to correct mistakes quickly for the next match. You look at Optic and how fast they are able to make much needed adjustments, it needs to be that way for us too.

Guys look, he cares about a team that will never win a major ☠️☠️☠️
Don’t tell him 🤭🤣🤐🤫

is it not a honeymoon run since they signed tenz not long before they went to masters reykjavik?

Your team is dropping maps to TSM academy. Your region is never winning a major again, let alone your team
boltz [#23]that was before people viewed them as the "best team in the world"
that still doesnt make any sense. I don't think yall know what a honeymoon run even is
number1_ScreaM_fan [#19]nah liquid were considered favourites by some to win champions since they just won homegrounds and lcq. fnatic were always hyped
Liquid deserved to 2-0 and then lose champions finals
