I truly feel saadhak spammed phoenix for the same reason they used the Swamp Comp last year on every map. The comp works on every map if there is synergy.
Basically I believe it works like this:
Every map has an Optimal Comp, so it makes sense to play that comp, but that also means everyone is used to that comp.
By creating a "Team Comp" you now have the possibility of switching comps on every map, since you can be well trained in both.
Take Ascent for example, Qck's Jett is not bad, which means Loud has 2 comps they can run easily.
What I think happened on Lotus specifically is that they have a previous comp (KJ, VP, FD, RZ, OM) and possibly a new comp, but saadhak didn't want to reveal that, so he used the Team Comp.
It's not a bad gamble since if they win, they can run the Team Comp for longer and THAT gets antistratted, not their Optimal Comp.
For those saying it's copium. Remember that:
- Saadhak was the first to use Harbor Viper
- Saadhak made a new functional Ascent comp
- Saadhak made 3 Controllers viable for a while
This mf is known for constantly cooking up shit and right now even the coaching staff is on his side.
(Kudos to Sentinels for winning tho, very possible they would still win if the other comp was used)
With all that said. I think Louds actual comp will be this:
- Tuyz - Raze
- Qck - Killjoy
- Less - Viper
- Saadhak - Omen
- Cauanzin - Fade
