Eg has been improving all the year if u see the maps played in the final eg won the exact maps that had losed against fnc in tokyo's final, they improved their map pool otherwise fnc did the same all the time, staff difference.
alecksdesk [#4]EG > PRX > LOUD > FNC
overall this year imo
fnc won 2 trophies
recency bias is ridiculous
manca [#6]fnc won 2 trophies
recency bias is ridiculous
lockin was a single elim with a lot of new teams with no protocols, the team that did well are the one who stayed with a core. most teams had like 3 weeks of prac, or around that. i dont count that.
in tokyo every single team was nerfed (PRX sub, EG prac with reformed until literally 2 days before tokyo cuz demon1 situation was unknown, DRX/LOUD crisis, NRG bad form)
champs mattered the most, and when team had their full force fnatic just crumbled.
Sir_Johnny123 [#5]Recency Bias strikes again.
EG ended the year stronger for sure but Fnatic had a better year overall.
yes agreed fnatic had the better year overall
wonder if eg can keep up this lvl

just hearing a whole lotta coping and excuses
im an NA fan and have always disliked fnatic, but this narrative being pushed against them is just false

or maybe just could be the fact that fnatic won the previous two tournaments so everyone was watching their strats and VODs. Literally saw that with LOUD. They beat fnatic twice but lost to EG, PRX and DRX they only watched fnatic as their prep the way it looks

you acting like nobody anti strats you until u win two tournaments in a row💀
loud also had great antis vs EG and PRX, but they had a very well stylistic matchup vs fnatic
as chadhaak said, fnatic were very easy to read
KanyeAsada [#2]FNC is the best team of the year overall. EG is better right now
lol doesn't work like that when you fail at the most important tournament. lockin doesn't count since it was single elim intro tourney and they didn't even win EMEA. If you look at the two international tournaments where all the teams are at peak form. FNC went 1st and 4th. EG went 2nd and 1st. Fnatic literally choked the year away.

DarkraH [#9]nah bro, Fnatic was the best team overall
nah lock in doesn't count. Teams barely just formed and it was single elim. Fnatic would of literally been out 1st round of playoffs if champs was single elim.

You are right, LOCK//IN was an exhibition event and it will never take place ever again. It has the same value as other invitationals like Tarik Ludwig or Redbull. EG was the best team 2023. Won Champs and 2nd place Tokyo.
GolemTison [#15]LoCkIn DoEsNt CoUnT 🤓
it doesn't. $100,000 for 1st place. EG don't even have the same team lmao.

very easy to read since they anti stratted them hard
dER1593 [#18]it doesn't. $100,000 for 1st place. EG don't even have the same team lmao.
EG swapped out 1 player. They had to get a russian to be successful. Stop the deluisions
dER1593 [#18]it doesn't. $100,000 for 1st place. EG don't even have the same team lmao.
lockin - 30+ teams
champs - 16 teams
Lockin>champs
Sir_Johnny123 [#20]EG swapped out 1 player. They had to get a russian to be successful. Stop the deluisions
Fnatic literally had the greatest superteam of all time and they came in 4th when it mattered most. Shit is just sad lololol

Chronicle was the only player to win something before joining fnatic. keep coping

You have to qualify for champs. Every team is literally invited to lock in.
Your iq = very low

Your iq = very low
so champs = lockin
Sir_Johnny123 [#23]Chronicle was the only player to win something before joining fnatic. keep coping
Yes, cause fnatic players always shit the bed. You guys literally had the best players for each role. What do I have to cope about? EG just won champs. Fnatic couldn't even get on the podium.

Still doesn't change the fact Fnatic was the best team of 2023.
EG ended the strongest tho.
stop letting your feelings get hurt over facts
