hekzy [#2]Look wippie was only a week with them. Even less than jammyz.
that is true, but they are still playing with a different team than what they qualified with, which does mean something imo
No one believes they are top 2 for sure but you cannot deny them top 5 or even top 3, they performed exceptionally well for the position they were put in and although the team and players were new as a whole wippie is a star player in the coming and was known as a talent on chaos with vanity before so jammyz had big shoes to fill in and although he played well I have no doubt wippie would have played better. Also, their preparation was probably better than any other NA team would have done other than sentinels, I don't know if I could see c9/NV/100t beating liquid the way that they did by fooling them.
V1 = Top 2-3 vanity's attitude towards the game will lead this team to a long and healthy place at the top of the game.
All the respect in the world goes out to jammyz and V1 for flying him out on barely a weeks notice and filling the role quite well especially considering he's only had t2 experience up until that point
Glycoroldas [#5]If were going down this route, then liquid is also not top 2 in europe. They fluked into the finals because there was no loser's bracket in EMEA qualifiers and EMEA tournament itself. Heck, if loser's bracket didn't exist in NA qualifiers then sentinels would not even be here today either.
emea bracket is probably the most poorely done thing i've ever seen

a lot of people haven't realized this, imagine NA without Sentinels lmao, just like us without FPX which strats were used a lot in iceland (or other teams who were strong but not as hyped up)

No one would know if both FPX and SEN were not here. I have to go to a alternate universe to figure out what happens to the regions.
sentence [#8]I don't think V1 will be that good in the future once they nerf the post plant meta. Also Vanity won't be that good after the judge nerf which hopefully comes.
Judge is hypocritical, but I’ve seen FNC, TL, NU, win eco rounds mainly cause of the judge it goes both ways.
Gotenks [#10]Judge is hypocritical, but I’ve seen FNC, TL, NU, win eco rounds mainly cause of the judge it goes both ways.
I've barely see FNC with judges. TL and Nuturn agreed.
Gotenks [#12]TL Ascent Match against V1.
What I meant to say is that I agree that TL and NUTURN use judges.

Ye I agree with you, I don’t see FNC using judges, but I’m saying that it’s not only v1 is going to be affected if there is a judge nerf cause others use it.

I still believe V1 will be good as they adjust back to there main roster and finalize it, they were known in NA as the meta adapters said my s0m.

My guy doesn't even know the meaning of the word "imagine" lmaoooo
