For me had to be Acend went from winning Champions to being stuck in Tier 2
What about you guys
Dokka [#6]You can blame Putin for that one
But you had FPX at its prime at the same time and in the same circumstances as gambit, that's no excuse for the decline of the team.

Afterwards, as M3C they also could not qualify they were always close but could not do it.

It was not the same circumstances
FPX is a Chinese org, so when the war happened, FPX as an org wasn’t barred from EMEA competition
Gambit was a fully Russian org and was barred from competition, and then dissolved
Ex gambit or M3C became a team without an org, which i can almost guarantee had an effect on the players and the performance they had during the year
I’m not saying Gambit didn’t have team problems, they definitely struggled with chamber, but I’m sure they would’ve made a lan if the war hadn’t happened
Jitu [#9]100Throws went from best team in NA to getting 13-0d by The Guard who had 4 rookies
They were never the best in NA maybe 2nd in 2021 but they were always behind sentinels. At that time they just had a brand new roster and the best NA team was considered to be Cloud9 and the guard were rookies but they won that challengers split beating sen c9 and optic. 13-0 sucks but they were one round away from winning 2-0. Their peak was the comeback on Breeze against Acend. Which in hindsight was still great but mattered very little as they got clapped by Envy right after and Acend qualified for and won champs.
