They played a total of 13 games during kickoff and madrid(which is the most among all VCT teams), if a coach fails to antistrat SEN then they deserve to get sacked
True to an extent but in the past teams haven’t struggled as hard to maintain their form
LOUD FNATIC DRX dominated Lock In and dominated their region after
OpTic FPX, FNC, and pretty much all of the 2022 teams maintained their form going into the regional split
This is the only year that it is VERY OBVIOUS that the teams that went to the first international are struggling
There is a lot of truth to Madrid being Mickey Mouse
Honestly they just got mental diffed and anti-stratted. EG went into the game with good vibes and nothing to lose, while SEN came into the game with loads of pressure to qualify so i don't blame them for losing this. Not to discredit EG's win but it just looked like SEN lost a step because of the pressure during Bind and Sunset
