why is everyone rating them so high? theyre fucking shit lmao
They are not “fucking shit” by any means but yeah they are getting rated high.
They beat t1(mid)
Navi in TWO OTS (mid)
And loud who were in the worst form of their lives
They are right along in their w DRX/NAVI IMO. They are very capable of making a run but people expecting them to is kinda crazy.
Regardless I’m hyped to watch them and hope they make it far, they are so fun to watch.
Apparently, the scrimbux in pacific (including PRX w/ something) has revealed that EDG aren't only winning their scrims, but they are on a different level entirely. So, if PRX are what people view as the second best team in the world, and EDG is shitting on them (although, it is just scrims), then its kinda hard to argue them any lower than top 5, especially with their placement during Tokyo.
Personally, I'd put EDG in the same tier with NRG, EG, and TL (plus maybe PRX). You can kinda mix and match the rankings from there.
I don't know the scores at all. Sideshow and Bren were told this information from other pacific players and coaches about scrim results (which is why they rated EDG so highly within the power ranking). Here's the clip: https://www.youtube.com/clip/UgkxhW6o36FVUH3dXGDmrWG7nSYDwCFTRtCV
Thanks! I skipped that part of Platchat and went straight to their power rankings part xD
It makes sense, EDG are known to be scrim Gods in pacific, I even remember watching them play LCQ last year without dropping a map; somehow if we see EDG vs. PRX in groups, maybe EDG gets their win this third time? It'd be a banger of a series
