Grand finals winning formula

Every time I watch the grand finals in valorant, or in any high stakes game in general, winners are willing to take risks, losing teams crumble when they start getting afraid of losing. You could see it in every grand final last few years, PRX played like they were afraid to lose and lost to EG, same with GENG in Madrid:remember the player cams of geng players on icebox and split, they were relieved after every round win, same thing again with TH against GENG, they did not know what to do in map 5 and just sat on bombsites waiting to get execed on split, same thing again with TH against EDG etc.
Today I felt the same thing again, G2 are the team who usually plays Pearl with agressive lurks thru mid with Jonahp and leaf, but we barely saw that in their 15 attack rounds on that last map. Instead they were 5 man hitting sites a lot and getting spammed or flooded every time, it felt like they were afraid to make a miscall. Once G2 lost against the semi-buy round on 12-10, it was always T1 trying to win and making plays and G2 trying to avoid mistakes with being afraid to lose. I guess the takeaway is always play to win no matter the scoreline and the opponent, even the team who were playing "perfect" valorant can crumble under the pressure if they are afraid to lose. GGs to T1 and G2, what a grandfinal nonetheless.

Yeah valorant is much more of a mental game than people think
