Top 5 Biggest Disappointments of Stage 1

#1

This isn't a worst of list, this is a expectations vs results list.
Gimme your own cause I'm curious but mine are.

5 Vitality (one of the more underrated teams going into this year, but hasn't really met expectations yet)
4 Loud (will excuse first game cause Riot fucked them over, but haven't looked like their normally dominant selves this stage, pulled it back slightly at the end though)
3 JDG (sucks seeing such a good roster in former Rare Atom, turn to shit)
2 Sentinels (from masters winners, to missing out on playoffs)
1 NRG (do i need to say much)

honorable mentions: T1, Zeta, Wolves, BLG

Idk about t1 being an honoruable mention because despite them being frauds, they fluked their way into shanghai. If we are talking Korea, DRX the playoffs chokers should be here. Literally went 5-0 to lose twice in playoffs :( I mean at least DRX had close games against the best teams. Whereas T1 lost 2-0 to the second worst team in the league and barely made it into playoffs...

Drx also had a roater change one month before so i did not expect them to win tbh. The expectations at the start of the split were defo exceeded and I'm happy that is the case.

T1 i could probs justify replacing Vitality, I just gave them leeway cause they did just barely squeak by into playoffs. It would be hard to say DRX disappointed though after a 5-0, could put teams like them and kru in the honorable mentions though just due to their playoff choke

T1 "fluked" their way into shanghai

T1 had to play 4 games in 9 days, only 2 teams in ENTIRE 44 teams had this schedule in Split 1.
Xccurate had to play those 4 games whilst having hand injury.
T1 had to relocate to base camp (1 hour away) during part of stage 1 cause T1 HQ was DDOS.
DRX didn't perform when it mattered, T1 overcome MASSIVE OBSTACLES getting their way into playoff, meanwhile DRX got complacent getting top seed in group omega.
Stax always been antagonistic against other KR teams, putting hierarchy, this is karma for having Demon1 behaviour, not qualifying to international turney is good riddance.

i will still stand by this opinion until the day i die. DFM actually played and looked really good that day. which honestly just sucks cause now we cant just shit on them for being a bad team haha, we actually know that they CAN be good, they just dont want to be by the looks of things
