Nrg

I’ve already accepted that i’m going to get hate for this.

Ardiis was not the problem in that game. M1 Victor hard carried NRG to win (that 3k to hold C was insane). Ardiis played bad but doesnt matter, they won.

M2 Ardiis plays bad at the start. Once EG gets to ~10 rounds Ardiis cooked so hard to drag NRG to OT, and still cooked in OT (had highest rating in map too, over Demon1)
Victor was -14 on raze, huge dropoff from the hype we expected from his loud performance, but everyone has bad games and he has been the best on NRG undoubtedly for a few weeks so it doesnt matter.

M3 defence, Ardiis was top frag and 2nd highest rating, while Victor was 1-11. Defence needs at least 7 to remain competitive on ascent. On attack, they got annihilated, and obv the duelist who takes all the entrys is going to have horrible stats.

Im not saying that Ardiis was the goat, and couldnt of played better. I’m not saying Victor threw the game, or all the other teammates were nonexistant. I’m just saying using Ardiis as a scapegoat in this match is just wrong. He had been underperforming at the start of the season, but hes warmed up a bit and honestly produced more than he should have, especially with him being the teams sacrifice to sell fakes.

Waiting for all the “aint reading allat”’s

i aint reading all that... i am happy for you though, or sad that it happened!

ty very much bro

Crashies is only consistent one, s0m is okay but not as good as marved. Ardiss not scapegoat but there are better jett players in NA

Everyone didn’t show up yesterday. It was clear fns was panic calling by third map bc they were obviously getting outgunned and everyone wasn’t getting kills they should have.
It’s aight, can’t expect a team to be perfect 100% of the time we aren’t watching robots.
If anything it makes me more excited to watch the next game, I’ve seen this many times (Xerxia, guild, and also EG) I just hope we don’t have el Classico for elimination seeing one of those teams gone would be painful

It was Fate’s fault.

Eg was ready to kick the entire team And restart if they got 2-0’d in playoffs

The Lords of Valorant didn’t want that to happen,
So Eg Won despite NRG being a better team statistically.

Anyways, EG’s roster lives another day

And NRG have Some Soul-Searching to do before they flunk out of japan and Are dethroned as “NA’s best team”

There are definitely a good couple better jett players compared to Ardiss currently, but FPX Ardiis is only really matched by leaf (Demon1 hasnt played long enough for me but he would be in this argument too, I'm a big Demon1 fan and have been for a few months before he got signed to EG).
Ardiis isnt scapegoated by everyone but a lot of threads only point fingers at Ardiis to blame because the whole EMEA trash sentiment.
Crashies is super consistent, just unlucko that results arent dependent on his form because of how up and down Victor and Ardiis can be
