Yo I keep seeing everyone talk about EDG being like rusty, sluggish, washed, etc etc.
Is this true? And if so what tournaments have they performed awful at recently?
(The only one off the top of my head is afreeca but like I don’t think we can consider off season tournies as reliable results especially since they had been competing nonstop before it due to Chinese ascension stuff)
china grand final was abysmal, worst valorant i watched for a while. you can go re watch that.
i think the problem with EDG is that they havent improved since tokyo, tokyo was their big first breakout tour and it was fine for the hero plays to keep them in, but i thought they gonna evolve tactically more than that since then and it just... didnt happen? they still play the same valorant where their tactics are subpar and they are just getting out of situations by having 5 really really talented players that are above their region.
if they wouldve improved in a solid rate, they shouldve been the clear fav to win madrid by now. they are the only team who kept the same 5.
