TE 3-2 RA
I agree. They're looking very out of it, and I think either FPX or TE stand a very good chance at finally sending EDG home. However, we have also seen EDG get a post-loss buff, similar to what happened last act of the tournament. This post-loss buff was also seen in Masters tokyo, and arguably even against Giants. Anyways, I think it'll be very interesting and I don't think I'm going to write a prediction for this series. Instead, I'll just watch and observe this time.
So yeah no analysis for me this time :(
3-2 EDG win against FPX
edit: TE to FPX
edit2: 2-1 to 3-2
DId you watch the RA match? You can't be trying to convince me that they looked anything but "out of it".
As for the post loss buff, you literally just proved my point. Masters Tokyo they lose to T1, then they absolutely destroy T1. Champions LA they struggle against Giants on Split, then they smack them silly come the rematch. They demolish TE 3-0 after losing 2-0, and we might see it again against RA. Learning to adapt to a team after a loss is exactly what I mean by post loss buff.
they dont look out of it, every team is going to lose a match eventually but that doesnt mean they "look very out of it" cause they lose 1 game, even if its 13-6 or 13-5 or whatever that literally happens to every team here and there, you just forget about all of there wins until they lose 1 match and say "there looking very out of it", maybe there where in 1 map but not overall
Hmmm. Maybe I was being unclear. I understand the point you're raising, but what I wanted to convey was exactly that. Perhaps I should have specified that all I thought was that against RA, EDG looked very tired. I did not intend to portray my views as having "forgot about all of their wins". However, I still think the RA match exposed EDG's mental fatigue; especially on Sunset which EDG usually dominates.
Anyways, I still don't completely agree with you, but it's my fault that I caused confusion and created room for misinterpretations. Cheers!
