I didn't say they stole it, but tactically the setups and executions were inspired by how LOUD currently plays the map, if you watch both teams often you will notice
DRX was known for breach on haven and they played it well
but tbf SMB wasn't quite dominante on ascent they lost matches here and there against acend 2 times
G2 icebox was dominant for a while
True. SMB had such a good understanding of the map and beat some really good teams in dominant fashion. Drx pioneered the breach meta on haven. G2 has made so many metas on icebox including the triple sentinel meta now.
G2 also made triple sentinels on split too and found great success(raze,omen,chamber,sage,cypher)
Too bad gold 2 didn't qualify and split is getting removed
True. Will be interesting to see how they fair up in masters 2. Tbh Loud hasn’t lost many matches in general so it’s hard to see which map they are most dominant on.
Its pretty clear to see what map they dominate more if you watch their matchs in maps like ascent, breeze and bind. But yea they're a really good in almost every map but they're always improving like on fracture and icebox this recent days
i disagree i think they have a fairly good haven but if u look closely it was always someone(leo) going huge for them
imo their breeze looks very very good also every team is banning breeze against them
Fnatic on icebox, they have been dominating since last champions. Lost only to g2 who came up with a good comp including chamber , which FNC picked up and again mastered the map
