They place NRG and NAVI in S tier but say DRX is only A tier because they dropped maps to other teams.
Didn't NRG literally drop a map to GIA and nearly drop a map to a less than 1 month old KOI or am I going crazy?
Is going 2-3 against LOUD not worth anything too?
Even if you think NAVI and NRG are better than DRX, you have to admit that the 5 teams are all a similar level.
NRG and NAVI are LITERALLY one and two spots above DRX on the power ranking. What exactly are you complaining about?
Regardless, DRX objectively looked one dimensional, as per usual. When they got deeper in the tournament and there was more tape on how they played, they started getting smacked. They have one playstyle and one gameplan - when they can't run it, their midrounding is not good as compared to any of the S tier teams. When they play their game, and no one knows what they're doing, they can look unbeatable, but they're still one dimensional.
Also how is TLN and FUR counted as B tier teams when they played so much better than LEV who is in A tier. Both looked much better than VIT who ended up above them too.
...again, we're talking about swapping 3-4 teams around who are essentially next to each other in the power ranking. TLN looked good, but they didn't beat any teams above them on the tier list, and FURIA looked solid but also semi-inconsistent based on carry performances out of GOD mwzera. LEV seemed to have a better holistic gameplan, +scrimbux. Also, looked better than VIT? When?
Lastly, how do you advocate for LEV to be put above DRX and almost put 100T in the same tier as them?
Didn't happen, so this is a strawman argument.
I have so many questions but glad I can hear them say that "100T will be good with time" for the 100th time.
They never said that. They said if they completely change the system they have in place to revolve around Cryo and how he wants to play, then they will be successful. Great job cherrypicking my friend.
