monstrous performance so far
Not only that. Leo is one of the best initiators in the world. I think he is only behind Sacy and Shao. Imo he is better than crashies and stax. Chronicle is the best flex in this game (with only Saadhak being close to him). Guy knows how to play AT LEAST 10 agents and can perform well in high level.
Comparing them to Enzo, Mistic, Doma and Magnum is an insult.
Fnatic is a great contender to win Franchise/Masters/Champions next year.
Numbers could fluctuate but in my opinion this lifts so much pressure off Alfajer and Derke, leo and chronicle are killing machines. If they have the same team play they use to have FNC has a bright future next year. And tbh so do FPX and Liquid.
I still can’t believe how did M3C manage to fall off with the talent they had
they had a bootcamp and coach wtf are you talking about
they lost due to having a trash duelist (d3ffo) and not trying to pick up someone to fill duelist (as it turns out jady cant fill chronicle's shoes, who could've fucking thought) + the like, idk 81058 ping they played on for the entire year
just unfortunate circumstances
Actually there are 2/3 types of initiators: Recon(Sova, Fade) , flash (Breach) and Middle term (Kay0 and Skye). As initiator, you only have to master 1 or 2 of them, since the meta "demands" 2 initiators.
It's good to know how to play all of them? Yes. But is not a must to be considered a good initiator.
Yes and no. If they don’t win anything then Boaster and mini might be the problem, but if they are a consistent top 3 world for example that’s not disappointing to me. Winning can’t be mandatory with this level, it’s just not fair. Leo and chronicle are insane, but so are Sayf and Nats, Shao and Suygetsu etc.
To put it in other terms, to me that’s like asking one of the best goalies in the world to save every penalty, as long as he saves a couple that’s not a disappointment
Not only they are extremely good exercising their role, they are heavy fraggers as well.
Wich was the problem with Enzo and mistic.
Enzo and mistic were great support players, but if derke or alfajer wasn't carrying, the probability of one of the initiators so assume the game was thin.
Now, it's different.
Just look at the way chronicle sets himself up with those off angles, or the way Leo uses his abbilies to get one or two kills so often.
It's a completely different team now. Not even close I feel.
Also, from the mental point of view, chronicle already won a masters event. So he can bring that experience to the team.
Leo also looks like a very confident young man. With strong mental. And that might be of very good help to a team that struggle with the mental game in the past
