Fnatic went into copenhagen looking like the best valorant team ever. Expectations going in from stage 2, anything but winning was a disappointment.
Who's to say fpx wouldnt have the same flop at Iceland? Optic brought the neon and chamber into the forefront of the meta. Prior to Iceland, NA was the only region abusing chamber, emea barely played him. Come copehagen and the meta defining comps used by optic were heavily studied, practiced with and against, and teams (including fpx) were much more prepared to counter. Why is there an assumption that fpx would've handled those comps in Iceland how they did copenhagen? That's 3 months of adapting that helped them antistrat so well.
Imo fpx was obviously a very good team. But just based on the meta at the time. Fpx at Iceland likely makes the run zeta had.
Edit: this was meant as a response to the guy saying fpx would've won Iceland too)
