if sen was "trying new shit" you'd be saying the opposite. we've seen loud try new shit and it didn't work 90% of the time (including previous years), we've seen navi try new shit and it also very rarely worked out. the only team who consistently did it is prx. if anything, fnatic proved last year that the best way to be consistent is to play standard comps at a very high level
Idk about others but I’d be praising it, this “loud tried new shit and it didn’t work” is complete bullshit cause they’ve been exploring and defining the meta for some time now, they’ve tried new shit and improved in the middle of this split ffs
Same for Fnatic in this group stage, I’d even say the reason for their fall off was just doing the same old stuff and eventually being surpassed because they didn’t innovate
Fnatic didn’t prove consistency depended on standard comps, consistency isn’t 3 months mate, loud and PRX proved innovation is the key to staying on top because they’ve been doing it for over 2 years
