1000s of people including me would die to have opportunity like he does, what a fucking shame, never deserved to be champion
smoggy literally says "while the performance at champs was unquestionable", so he's acknowledging that s1mon still was important in their champs win
and even though s1mon has a shitty mentality, he won a lot of important rounds for edg in that tournament (the first one that comes to mind being the 1v2 on lotus while threatened by kj ult)
