You saying it’s Mickey Mouse because it’s the first event May I remind optic has done the same thing 🤣 and ofc your not calling your own win a Mickey Mouse so why should we
Its not necessarily Madrid but moreso kick off
The format to qualify for Masters Reykjavik was a split and it really gave time for new teams to gel together and build chemistry/synergy
For example, OpTic wouldn't have qualified for Masters Reykjavik if the qualifier had the same format as kick off
If we didn't have kick off and instead had a full split for who qualifies to madrid, then it wouldn't be mickey mouse
there was a lower bracket, then a play-ins, then the knockouts
why do you fail to understand this, maybe NRG shoulda played saved strats and went for play-ins
Kick off wasn't just some 4 team tournament lol
match vs sen was in march, Ethan and Demon1 were already decided by NRG once n4rrate went to KC on december 13,
IN TOTAL: 3 full months to practice or play off-season events, instead of grinding like sen you waited a few weeks to start scrims and played no events, no tears for the lazy

read the date, this is when it was officially announced, they were probably able to scrim full time for weeks before this
DECEMBER 23 OFFICIAL MATCH AGAINST SEN MARCH 2
WE ARE DONE WITH THE "NRG HAD NO PRAC TIME" NARRATIVE
it also required a few ninja defueses a double pistol and a few ecos/bonuses from nrg that don't happen most times
NRG also won two clutches but had 20 less kills on the map, even if zekken and don't drop 30 kills (the map was 14-16 it's not that impressive to have 30 kills) they would win in regulation usually
Look at the teams that qualified they did way better than the expected team to qualify because they were more hard working than the other teams. Like look at th nobody thought they would make it to an event and nobody thought they would beat fut but they did and managed to destroy Navi a team everyone expected to qualify. The best teams were playing from each region in madrid . Sen beat NRG and loud , lev to win kickoffs . To say not the best teams were in that event was wrong all the teams in Madrid deserved to go over the “ best teams”
leeches clout from bigger names
0 accomplishments (unless you count get carried by TenZ, Zekken, and Sacy) and has been handed Tier 1 opportunities for as long as the game as existed and done nothing with them
Misogynist and/or racist causing him to get suspended while on V1
Crybaby on Twitter
Ruined yay's 2023 career opportunities by not taking LOCK//IN seriously and getting him dropped right before the roster lock
Generally annoying and no personality other than screaming and twerking
and his haircut, fighting with redgar for the "barber fucked up my shit" award
------------------
NRG will win and it won't be close
FNS just saying shit, his career goal is networking now that he's streaming and not building rosters
If FNS loves him so much, why did he never pick him up on one of his teams?
Put me in the roster and I'll be super vocal and contribute to the win, doesn't make me a world class player. Sacy, TenZ, and Zekken will get me the win anyway (now that they have a real IGL and they're literally lost all game).
I say it before on multiple occasions and I will repeat it again, I think NRG players is the best on their current roles and they are set to achieve a lot this year any1 deny it will be joking, yes the core won an event before under other org name good for them and they are great set of players, the Idea here from this thread is that NRG fans crying about SENs trophies been micky mouse, while NRG didn't accomplish any thing on the scene yet and claiming other ORGs accomplishment(while that accomplishment was a first year event as sen ), we don't hate in the players as I say I think they are goated on their respective roles, we hate on the delusional NRG fans that's it
Whys this bro talking about the past lmfao no one complained or cared back then.
Get better at the game first kid.

So we just gonna ignore the double elim groups, the hectic single day double games play-ins? Saying "oh if NRG won sunset...." is just a cope. NRG had longer prep time and so many sen vods, almost everything was in their favour yet they lost an important elimination match that day, end of discussion.
