Weakness from G2

So did we finally see some clear weakness coming from G2?

No. They play perfect Valorant.

Leaf was definitely over performing so they bulldozed everyone, they aren’t unbeatable gods but they are still a fantastic team who made a deep run last year and upgraded

as a g2 fan agree, they aren't invincible

I think it's that they overemphasize set plays and anti-strats to the point where they end up looking lost when the stratbook runs out.

Sentinels definitely showed that G2 can still be beat. If not for Valyn's hero round, SEN might've won Haven.

Someone said this but set plays are a very tiny part of actual pro play
Anti strays sure, but most practice is around map theory and just time getting people comfortable with their comps

Ngl sen g2 was way too close for so called G2 best team in world narrative.

that's like only on Split. Only set strats didn't help them go no map loss before finals. Everyone from collegiate to tier 1 has stratbooks. only like 5-10% of their games are strat books.

this is actually so accurate. whenever they have to freestyle it during rounds, like when they burned both timeouts in the first half of abyss, they look completely jumbled, and the teamplay that leaf's harps on just dissolves. if they fix their mid-rounding and valyn implements some new off-the-wall plays during their mid-rounding, there's an extremely high chance they win at least one international this year, at least a higher chance than it is currently

Yes they are overrated

dawg they lost 3-0 clean to fuckin Team Liquid, and the excuse was "we were to too scared to fight Vitality."

Get a grip

they are overrated just like they were last year, talking about "they play perfect valorant!!!" to nearly lose a gf to sen is comical

actually no, but they look like kind overheat in GF, espicially Leaf, that's like a double-edged sword, make him look like a monster or just like trolling.

My point isn't that it's all they do, just that they do over-rely on defined strategies and tend to get outcalled in drawn-out, scrappy series.

They're still better than most teams at improvising, but when we're talking about the best of the best, they aren't #1 at that particular aspect.

No. They play perfect Valorant.

almost losing to Sen is NOT perfect Valorant

hard disagree with this. the first tac that got drawn out of g2 was upper finals on pearl(sens pick). theyre one of the best at keeping their halves fresh with adjustments to avoid losing (momentum in) halves

I don't see how that disproves my argument. They're going to be prepared for several games' worth of rounds because they're probably the most studious team out there.
