i honestly think fnatic will lose
loud will be able to play ascent, haven, and pearl against them
EG will get to play fracture, ascent, and pearl against them and can ban lotus.
i do think itll be prx vs fnatic though
2
if its loud or even EG in the finals against fnc

Ullyr [#2]Let fnatic cook I wouldn't count them out yet.
yea underrating them is dumb but having 2 map vetos in a bo5 is such a huge advantage for them
non_schizophrenic_br_fan [#3]idk, is Fnatic Pearl that bad? I think they may be hiding something
we dont know if they are bad at it, its that they instaban it every time. and prx, loud (if they stop using the fade and breach comp), and eg are very good on pearl
non_schizophrenic_br_fan [#3]idk, is Fnatic Pearl that bad? I think they may be hiding something
who said it will work they never play it
Valgod [#6]Fnatic pearl might be really good, we don't know that. But also their ascent isn't bad, it was 11-13 vs loud, which means they could've won that game
idk if it was really good surely they would be playing right? i mean it could be good but who knows. maybe they just dont practice on it. their ascent isnt bad either yea but i think eg and loud are just the best teams on that map

they haven't played it in roughly a year, I'm pretty sure their pearl is dogshit

Loud needed 2 pistols and 1 bonus round to win ascent, that's already 6 rounds. Fnatic usually almost never lose pistols
capital_d_colon [#14]I think the only map fnatic will have a bad shot at is pearl.
its a map they hardly ever scrim either.Every other map is winnable.
Fnatic haven is very strong. Imo might even be their strongest map now that the other teams have adopted the Fnc Lotus comp.
Completely right but I would rate their Fracture even higher (top 2 in the world behind EG)

What do you mean with FNC Lotus comp? In Lotus on in Heaven? I'm kinda lost with that part.

Most people assumed that fnatic's best map was Lotus.
i think the reason why they looked so good on that map was the fact they had created a comp that was very strong.
But now other teams have started to use the Lotus comp which kinda removes the big advantage fnc had over the other teams.
The comp being omen/astra - viper - kj - raze - fade.
It's a pretty untraditional comp due to the lack of flashes.
tldr: fnatic were way ahead of other teams in terms of the lotus comp meta. Other teams have caught up.

It happened with LOUD as well, they created a broken comp for Pearl, and everyone started using it and then they stopped using it. It happens with good teams, they will always be watched and copied. I mean, if it's a strong comp, why not?
The question now is: is Fnatic ready for this? Because LOUD is, they know people copied their comp and improved a lot since LOCK//IN, Fnatic is figuring out it now in the middle of the Champions. If their best map/comp is being used and studied for weaknesses, what are they going to do?

wdym? Fnatic could won pistol rounds too, Fnc winning more buy rounds doesn't mean they play better, if Loud managed to won both pistols and bonus they played better than fnc

Shut up idiot
Ic4rusYam2 [#21]I don't know why loud doesn't pick this haven literally 6-0 this year only, if they insist on this fracture, I'll go to sleep sad
yea their haven is very very good. the harbor viper on that map is great

Loud switched away from playing pearl. Started to ban it versus some teams in the americas playoff for example.
I would hope that fnatic might start floating the map versus certain teams.
Picking split into fut could work really well here. (though fut probably would also lose on lotus)
