like DRX have negative aura. they demolished fnatic but they still feel like the weakest team in playoffs. same with EDG imo. like they almost took down G2 but in my mind im like yeah EDG are going to go 2-0. and how does facing LEV feel more scary than facing Trace, even though trace won?? can someone explain because it makes no sense. also sentinels feels like they are unbeatable even though they lost their opening match. its so weird.

EDG had aura

idc what anyone says g2 literally has no aura at all despite being one of the strongest teams

the reason people say that about g2 is probably because they don't have flashy players

probably also because the guard core fell into irrelevancy after going 0-2 in masters reykjavik

good example of this is edg after champs 2023/madrid. they had super underwhelming results and lost aura as a result of that. the guard didn’t make copenhagen or champs 2022 after the loss to prx, not to mention they didn’t even get accepted into franchising and trent doesn’t hard carry/stream as much anymore. which is why g2 has less aura than most other teams

This is the only actual auraless team. There is no standout player, the core roster has been the same since inception. On god I’m gonna be sad if they win it for NA

The Fact That Bleed Had NONE Of The Aura Is Just A Dissapointment When They Had Jaccob "ELDIABLO Yay" Whiteaker In Theyre Team.

Bc DRX has been shit for a while now. Their recent success is seen as a fluke. And the opposite goes for LEV, they’ve been beasts for a while now, their recent failure is seen as a fluke. U following?

LEV was not Ass at the start of the season, they had 2 decently close losses during kickoff with SEN(madrid winners), and LOUD(madrid 4th). LEV lost to C9 and then dominated the rest of split 1. They had slow starts, but they werent "ass" they were average.

teams r usually more "scary" to like spectators when they have a superstar player+ good supporting players
like sure kk is a star duelist but a lot of ppl dont watch china so its different, they still have aura tho
some examples:
Loud with aspas
FNC with alfa and leo
EG with demon1
SEN with tenz and zekken
GENG with texture
TH with woot and benjyfishy
trace isnt scary because theyre the china 3rd seed, and china is still perceived as the worst region, so logically trace doesnt seem very good
the whole aura thing only affects like viewers, if u actually played u would know every team has their "aura"

Well they certainly did not let Pacific win their first ever trophy like your bum ass team heretics did LMAO, you bums couldn't even win 1 trophy. Talk to me when you're team lifts up a trophy that's not named ''participation trophy''.

Seems like sentinels will have to sit yall down again this champs.

cool but why was DRX NEVER scary even when monster mode mako was on the team????

#16

2022 DRX was scary tho
Mako is definitely the best smokes player oat but the thing with mako is that hes a smokes player, he doesnt get set up for kills or things like that
and for a team to be scary all members of the team has to be competent,
this literation of DRX imo is the best version of DRX but getting 13-2d by KRU doesnt exactly make them seem all that scary
i think its better if teams dont seem as scary so fans wouldnt be as dissappointed when they lose
im rooting for DRX to win champs too

I feel like the teams that have no aura, are the teams that, even if they are out of form, are very hard to eliminate, DRX, Trace, EDG, (Lev too IMO, but Aspas helps alleviate that a lot), it all feels like if they aren't unbeatable titans, the teams that when they are off, are extremely off, Trace in past tournaments and through out the regular seasons, didn't look like or feel like world beaters, same with DRX and EDG, they all seem very beatable because they don't have proven track records of even when out of form, they find ways to win anyway. Teams like Sentinels, G2, Heretics. Even when their players don't seem to be in form, when it seems like they are getting diffed on the day, they find ways to win rounds anyway. That's just my opinion and I could be very wrong, but I think about teams like Optic(2022), Gambit(2021), Loud(2022-2023), Fnatic(2023), teams that, even if certain players aren't performing, or even the team as a whole, they will just will themselves to victory.

The reason why LEV is losing these matches is because of bind we have too much ego to ban bind against a weaker team, it is our worst map by far and we still keep playing it, if we ban bind against G2 they are fucked because jett maps like ascent abyss icebox icy is shit and aspas is HIM.

i agree but lev are also inconsistent in general. They can win the whole thing if they clean up their game tho.

Search for our defeats this year 90% of it bind was involved, and we still keep playing it.

their loss on ascent vs trace was disappointing but I wouldnt be surprised if it was just an off day or something on ascent.

G2 has such minimal aura
even though they're currently one of the best teams in the world I can't take them seriously at all
like what kind of name is JonahP, sounds like a depressed english teacher

Edg has aura idk what u talking about. It's basically when a team has players that can pop off and take over a round. Aspas aura is so strong it makes lev feel like a top team.
