Apeks better than half of EMEA partner teams.

Seriously, EMEA threw so hard (BBL, FUT, TH, KC should apologise to their fans for their future performance)

Honestly I'd rate this team a little behind giants/vitality tier. That tier being praying liquid/navi/FNC win sao paulo so EMEA because everyone knows they are winning the 3 EMEA slots if they dont.

Enzo, Mistic, and Magnum are not washed, they just weren't better than leo, chronicle, and derke (3 of europe's best players) plus keiko thrives with good support players for teammates, Apeks is insane

Dude have you watched Magnum all year or you're saying that based on 2 maps? Cause I can guarantee you Magnum was not even the best player in a Spanish relegation team the whole year, exact same case as keloqz. Mistic and Enzo? Bruh it's not about being better or worse than Leo, if they were as good as you say why in the world did they not get picked up, KC literally chose Shin and Newzera.

Look don't get me wrong Apeks looks great, but so did The Barbers, don't overreact like that

Could have waited on the contract, or anyone else could have got them if they thought they were better

Really? a tier 2 team is a better offer than playing in a French superteam? Even if they were paying him twice as much it would not be a better offer my friend

theres a chance they didnt pick up enzo due to buyouts.
couldve spent too much money on scream + nivera

So Apeks could afford it and KC no?

buyout would likely be lower later on in the season, when there is less competition etc..
they arent too broke either.

besides its probably not the reason.
maybe its enzo's desire to be an igl

Stop looking for reasons, there isn't any. You don't reject your countries superteam on the org with the most fanbase just cause you wanna IGL in Tier 2 instead

Have you seen Magnum aim? It's like FNS but less drugs, dude's shaking left and right randomly trying to hit the target

Honestly I don't know how he was even allowed into Fnatic and KOI

Im not saying all of heretics is a train wreck, they have some good pieces, but that's it they have SOME good pieces.

The only reason to get those specific players over other better players is for LAN experience, but there were better players out there with LAN experience as well (see apeks enzo, mistic, magnum core). The exG2 core they picked up instead was G2 at its weakest ever, and they show no signs of stopping their downhill trajectory

This game very much seems like an anti-strat one so its hard to read too much into it
But gosh dang they're clean, have discipline and firepower to back it up; if the ascension were to be this week there'd be no competition

(well except bonk, but that's unfair for all other teams anyways)
