purely because of the fan base, the optic fan base is so delusional and stupid that it is so unbearable to put up with. pre franchising nrg was a vibe and had some great people
Is coming 2nd in the biggest tournament of the year not relevant?
Also where were u guys? getting clowned on by FAZE CLAN in the SAME YEAR? lmfao

"So people hate NRG because of our history of domination apparently"
"Fax
These fake NRG fans are trying to bring down the reputation of us real ones" mf u are one of them
"Surely we are at least top 3 in the world rn no?"
"Feels like a step down from last year"
"kkkkkkkkk
When I played I was high immortal and was actually goated
I definitely have better aim than sacy"
"Nah bro it doesn’t work 💀
That is why he is the weak link of SEN"
"He might be a Raze one trick"
"Top 2 Pacific > Top 2 Americas"
"Nah
LOUD map pool way too weak
NRG smokes"
"Offseason event
This isn’t the same PRX from Afreeca
I also think PRX have more momentum + better individuals"
"Fax
LOUD benefits the most from this fluke format
Brazilians should be thanking riot"
"FNC already proven to not be good enough"
"Zekken has been mediocre all tournament
Might be overrated"
"m80 is 100% better than G2 C9 EG
100t is debatable"
"Tell me who is wrong
KC would be at most a mid table team in NA"
"Americas = APAC > CN > EMEA"
this is barely scratching the surface
These are perfectly reasonable takes no?
I came to the conclusion of these objectively
When I made the comment about top 2 PAC > top 2 AM, both Americas teams lost that day
It is true that LOUD has a weak map pool
Zekken was mediocre AT THE TIME I TYPED THE COMMENT
The KC opinion is very reasonable
So is the m80 one
I still believe I have better aim than sacy. You can’t really debate this since you haven’t seen my aim
FNC take is reasonable since they didn’t qual
I still believe PRX have better individuals than SEN but aren’t as good tactically
And I think it is fair to say that the level of play from last year is worse considering that LOUD and PRX both still made top 4 even with massive downgrades
Tbh Nrg gets a lot of hate from Americas fans cause most Americas fans(NA on particular) cheer for Sen because they are the most popular team and also currently the best representative for Americas. NRG fans on the other hand have been shitting on Sen the whole Madrid and kickoff tourney causing a lot of ppl to call them salty and insult 100t
