- Paper rex
They had good micros but the macro on both maps were shit - Team heretics
I wouldn't have been surprised if Evil Geniuses won but I was expecting a closer match or at least closer maps - mibr
Talon Esports destroyed them even with a substitute
They are just not in the others level, the team was supposed to be other but then ended up like this when they lost Cauanzin and Mwzera to Loud and Furia.
Heat, Mwzera, Cauanzin, RgLM, Frz would have been a Superteam.
But they still had other players to choose. Personally.
Heat/Havoc, Liazzi, Murizzz, CTC, Frz would have been my team.
In my view:
So many mistakes that even in the Latam gods tournament last year, they with 1mounth team didnt do.
Face the most unpredictable team in the tournament, Talon Is a dangerous team to face in a single elimination first match.
Lack of igl to make the team chill, Heat was confident and showed a great performance but every time he dies after getting vantage.
Unpredictable rounds by Talon, 4 rounds that they won with the "stunned" kills, round 10x10 jit boys 3 kills stunned should be a 5x3 for them if he didnt have these lucky shots, talon will break their economy and lose.
In general, imo Mibr didnt show they full potential
I dont think so, i think that Jzz is a great talent, Frz is solid and constant, Heat still perform well even losing every time, Rglm Second best controller in Brazil, but Murizz, i cant handle this guy, if you see the same mistakes as Vk last year, even with bzka, its because the igl is making something wrong. Bad retakes organization, bad calls, bad decisions, they need some type of Saadhak to say stop for the bad decisions.
One thing i can say is that the Vivo Keyd core is a little overhyped by brazillians imo, RgLM is still too raw, murizzz was never really great in international tournaments and heat is great mechanically but still makes the same mistakes he has always made.
All that + people overrating bzka because of loud's success, made the expectations for this team way too high
Edit: those are just some of the problem i had with the team going into the tournament, there's probably some more things i didnt consider or dont know about
i think PRX fell off since they got 2nd on copenhagen , everything b4 copenhagen they play like nothing to lose with no expectation to win and surprise everyone , now that they tasted beihg "on the top level" they got the expectation to have to stay on top and changed their mindset the way they play
he isnt dogshit
but he really needs to improve as a coach
but most of MIBR problems (in those matches) relates to patience and comms
they played worse than expected, individual mistakes happened a lot
crws lurked the SHIT out of them and they seemed deaf to him (or never expecting when they definetly should)
was just so weird
