GGs, that was a stomp. Good lord. Been my favourites for LCQ winners, and I'm being proven right. Go win it all. Can't wait to see Benkai and Forsaken back on LAN.
As for GE, shit happens. Not much use on dwelling over this loss, time to focus on the lower bracket. Crazy Racoon crashed hard in their first game VS Gambit in Berlin, and they came back so strong in the group decider. It isn't over, yet.
As a reasonable fan , and not a deluded one , i knew how much GE were capable of before going into the LCQ . Heck even i thought that they would struggle to get more than 8 rounds against Damwon , But they did beat them.
As for PRX , they are the best team in SEA ( arguably ) and one of the best in this LCQ . I would never in my right mind would say that GE would "Beat" them , because i just know that the level at which they are at , they would still struggle against the best teams of SEA as well as teams like NU .
You might call me "Anti-National" or a person who doesn't believe or support his own region , But i saw this coming long ago that when GE or SkRossi would have to face such great teams , there would be a less than 10% chance for them to beat them convincingly.
And thats what happened , right ? PRX are miles above GE and GE have a long way to go before going head 2 head against teams like PRX . They need alot more experience than they currently have right now.
GGS to PRX they are possibly the best team GE has faced till now , We promise we would comeback stronger next time...
I missed the match but it's pretty apparent how it went from this website lol. Like I said before LCQ started, this entire event is going to be a valuable learning experience for GE. Should be satisfied with any wins they can get but holding expectations too high is just setting yourself up for disappointment.
Obviously you should be aiming to win any event you participate in but realism is important -- when there are teams like PRX, NUTURN, who have competed against the best in the world you should be seeing this as more of a way of incremental improvement
Hope they got some positive takeaways from this loss and will learn to implement them to their lower bracket run!
