great individual player not a good igl, giving up 11 in a half is criminal fineable, literally wins on Ascent off of pure skill even kaplan says LEV and 100T are better cuz they have a defined playbook NRG just do whatever they want.
nah hes fine for 1 month of igl. on split i dont think u can really blame anyone when u get spanked that hard(entire team wasnt shooting back). I think on sunset was where i think u can put some blame on him. he did terrible from individual perspective and the calling there was pretty bad. playing retake A with the comp they had made kind of no sense (comp looked more like an anchoring comp) and on attack it looked they were running around like headless donkeys
kingbass [#3]Forget IGL, they have 4 coaches wtf were they doing all these months
Tanizhq is the most cursed coach NGL
Bro has never made any team win
and made a stacked roster like NRG lose
too busy tweeting on twitter
endless1 [#4]too busy tweeting on twitter
Seriously bro watches every VCT match and tweets shit about it
Even after watching so many matches bro can't anti-strat,
Seriously idk wtf his job is and what he has been doing
Conceit [#6]Boostio also lost a 13-0 game to Loud yet he came back and won Champions. Those are the kinda things you can't really blame on one person
Teams like EG are a rare phenomenon you can't apply the same logic for every team
Its like saying if DFM lost 13-0 to PRX they still can win champions???

Sure they can, fucking anything can happen in this game. Is it likely they win champions, no, not at all, I wouldn't think it to be possible, but they can. But that's irrelevant to my point, players or teams can have bad maps, that doesn't make them bad and they can grow overtime. Especially for Ethan since he's a new igl. I also think this is more the coaching staff's fault but who knows for sure

That’s the problem you just signed arguably the best super team ever and you gave it a 1 month IGL
Mortadelo [#13]That’s the problem you just signed arguably the best super team ever and you gave it a 1 month IGL
it aint that bad for 1 month of prac losing 2-1 when tbh they probably should have won on sunset and your best player missing shots he usually hits. pretty sure its better to get this stuff out of the way early before it matters more like for matches that qualify for champs.
eeee333e [#16]Superteams with 5 really good players and one becomes igl just cus they need one = Ive never seen it meet the expectations
its not really happened in valorant though has it? Liquid is the closest thing and they never had 5 REALLY GOOD players
Ballsamolee [#19]i agree with replacing marved with s0m, but replace either crashies or victor with fns. ethan individually is still an insane player
why don't we just give the team more time lmao. yall overreacting
Psion [#18]its not really happened in valorant though has it? Liquid is the closest thing and they never had 5 REALLY GOOD players
(sen last year with marved igl)
LouBag [#17]Almost beat sen 2-0 but lose overtime on Sens map pick / best map.
Noobs: is Ethan a shit hole bastard?
eh, people are annoyed that NRG could have 2-0ed if either ethan or demon1 were actually getting kills on sunset, understandable. Ethan got 1 kill on atk side which is objectively awful
LouBag [#17]Almost beat sen 2-0 but lose overtime on Sens map pick / best map.
Noobs: is Ethan a shit hole bastard?
yall won both pistols and bonuses on a game with no thriftys and 2 rounds where NRG got lucky defuses, SEN cleared on gun rounds.
Psion [#18]its not really happened in valorant though has it? Liquid is the closest thing and they never had 5 REALLY GOOD players
Maybe not valorant but im just not sold on the premise of it based off what ive seen on cs a few times
Conceit [#6]Boostio also lost a 13-0 game to Loud yet he came back and won Champions. Those are the kinda things you can't really blame on one person
EG were dramatically worse than NRG at that state, its just EG being underdeveloped at that time.
Barss [#24]First time time IGL did perfectly fine, they just need to shape up a bit. Ethan can easily be a top IGL with all that experience he got
you're only saying he did fine when his calls vs SEN all map were poor, and he 2-0 C9 and MIBR both teams that get mopped by most teams, during those series the talent on his team showed out more than his individual igling and calling they were just a mechanically better 5 than MIBR and C9
MerkFreeks [#25]Give it time, we'll see how he develops as an IGL over the course of the season, does it suck and they could've 2-0'd if Ethan and Demon1 fragged any better on Sunset. Any given day though.
it depends, I think the easy fix is to move him off igl role and bring back FNS in for crashies, as he's just the best IGL.

I'm pretty sure he was igl for 100t a while back....which always turned out to be a disaster
jimjam789 [#31]I'm pretty sure he was igl for 100t a while back....which always turned out to be a disaster
nah that was steel and nitr0. he was igl for like 3 games after they left and 100t was a mess. then he left or smth
