Over the last 2 weeks i have been watching over threads, yet today has been the day. I have wanted to interact the most.
PACIFIC ASCENSION THREADS.
Mr Lelouch_Chaudhary I must do what you told me to, as I have been counting down the seconds all day for the time to do it.
As the OCE Warrior, It is my duty to stand up for my teams and players, and now I must defend the soon-to-be Pacific Ascension winners, BONKERS.
Bonkers is the best team in OCE by a fair margin. They won Split 1 with a roster under 95x Esports with the players: Swerl, Punda, Minimise, WAT and M1KE. After Split 1, Swerl announced that he was joining RNG to play in China, which started a change for 95x. As Split 2 was beginning, 95x only had two players remaining from their Split 1 roster, Minimise and WAT. The new three players were rDeew, who is well known from his time on ORDER and BOBO, Dragon who kept up with Swerl's stats in Split 1, playing for BOBO and LEW from Funcrew to replace Swerl as the duelist player. OCE fans had high hopes for this roster and the expectations were already met, with the 3 new players dominating in the first few matches of Split 2.
Unfortunately, 95x let go of the roster recently, leaving the team in free agency, returning to the name, BONKERS. Bonkers made it through the group stage of Split 2 with only one loss against Funcrew, but it didn't make them look any worse going into the playoffs. Starting with a bye, Bonkers faced The Who in the Upper Semifinal, with a clean 2-0. As XYZ and Koopa Troopers have made insane upsets in the first round of the lower bracket, Funcrew and The Who have been eliminated. Bonkers are going up against Nerdpunt in the upper final in a few days but the best team in OCE shouldn't have any problem advancing to the Grand Final and winning it.
Looking towards Ascension, they have a strong team. Coached by Fr0m who has had experience with many big orgs such as Cloud9, Ghost Gaming, and Rise as well as Eno who used to coach Bleed, BOBO and Louvre as an analyst, and their high calibre roster, consisting of top players for all roles in OCE, they genuinely have a chance. The strats and mechanics on the team are unmatched compared to the rest of OCE thanks to the big minds of Eno, Fr0m and Minimise and the cracked aim from all 5 players will really give them a chance at winning Ascension and heading to the Franchise League.
There is also a chance they get picked up by an org before Ascension so that is also a big addition to the team.
In conclusion, I genuinely believe that Bonkers can win Ascension and should not be underrestimated.
