100t would not have beaten nv in a bo3. nv's map pool was their biggest weakness because of low prep time
the only reason 100t even got to ban bind and play split was because they played SEN later than NV did, other way around and nv just bans split
but yeah man you beat a team with 5 days of prep in a seeding match 100t are the definite top 2 in na for sure
just watch and see, with more practice this team will dominate 100t AND sentinels
Edit: funny how that works xD
Wait so when 100T loses to Sen we forget that they're seeding games but when 100T beats Envy we use the excuse of it just being a seeding game? Also if it was a BO3, 100T would ban Bind, Envy would ban Split and they would play the same first 3 maps(Which 100T won 2 of them). So even if it was a BO3 , 100T went up 2-1 after the first 3 maps anyways so that's also a shit argument
I'm completely puzzled at this point.... Did you actually start this topic just to disagree with people? Or do you believe your view on things is so superior to others' that it allows you to flex your "critical thinking" and black/white thingy? Some of us(cough..cough) on here have sufficient academic experience to provide you with a complete semester on critical thinking and decision-making, let alone comparing two teams.
No, it was not a smug... it was just a simple observation of the past events. No matter what you claim, you just have to consider at least their recent games. 100t won the two recent games and that tells a lot on who is stronger, at least for the time being. We can speculate all day long but if there's no data to support our claims, we just can't consider it legitimate.
Give me a shout, if one day you'd need a lesson in critical thinking - it will cost you $$.
Yes, and it appears that this is the only category in which they are above 100t. The difference is merely 25 circuit points, which is a negligible difference.

The OP claimed that Split was key in winning NV in the 100t equation. However, he/she forgot that NV also won 100t's second best map, Icebox, which, in theory, evens out the score between the two teams. NV should have won their Ascent pick in order to win the game, but they did not. It was their own choice that they failed to win. As some have stated, you can't blame the system that is strategically exploited to win series, hence his whole argument is void of reasoning. Furthermore, the OP is arrogant and delusional, refusing to accept the opinions of others. Like, how does he/she want to discuss thing through his pathetic thread? I just don't know....
So taking advantage of a team's weakness is not allowed now? They literally saw an opening to beat Envy and did it well. As for your argument that 100 thieves cannot beat Envy in a BO3, no one can really tell what's gonna happen (100T and Envy might ban different maps, pick different maps, use different comps, etc.) since it did not happen. I respect your opinion though and I hope that both teams will deliver in Berlin. Right now, 100T is the 2nd best team in NA and your assumptions and theories won't make them below that
100t are better than nv rn but whats to say that envy cant come up with new stuff and win aganist them during berlin? This is a stupid thread 100t are better than envy right now because we arent looking at an envy that has played with each other for 6 months and know how to play really well, we are looking at the current envy and the current envy has not beat 100t. We haven't seen enough to come to a conclusion that envy is better so for now they are not, but at Berlin they certainly could do something and I wouldnt be suprised.
