This is bait but seriously fns’s success comes mostly from having the most dominant player ever across a year (yay) and the best smokes player until that point (marved)
He’s gotten outcalled by forsaken with cgrs, bilibili twice as well

2023 they legit made both lans that year 😭 that roster was doomed from the start, ardiis in a stream even said that when they lost to both mibr and c9 the team was basically done
2024 he didn't even play until now and they only had like a month to get ready LOL now explain to me why fns ISNT a top igl in americas

FNS had 3 of the statistical top 10 rated players in Americas league in 2023, went to Tokyo (once again with 2 of the top 10 highest rated players) and lost to a roster with a substitute player who was a streamer playing pro for his first time ever
He lost twice to the same team getting 4-0ed after narrowly beating zeta division
In 2024 since joining nrg they went from 5-4 under Ethan to 1-3
He is a good igl but people fanboy him blindly from 2022

again THE 2023 ROSTER WAS DOOMED FROM THE START LOL any achievement they had was a win for them, i will give you champs because that was disastrous
but do you really think fns and s0m can save a team in a month LOL? there is no way you are this stupid right
2023 also wasn't the greatest for loud, choking an 11-3 against fnatic, bombing out of tokyo, but ultimately ending 3rd in champs. they are also doing terribly this year too. are you going to say saadhak isn't the best igl in the world?

Saadhak is the best igl of all time but he certainly isn’t the best igl itw right now and if u believe that u are living off nostalgia
U can’t call someone the best IGL in the world when they made one lan event in the year no matter how good they were in the past

2023 loud got a 2nd place in lock-in, won Americas league and top 3 in champs beating fnatic twice
Their 2023 was infinitely better than nrg

i never even said fns was the best igl in the world LOL i said he was a TOP igl in the world, surely you arent blind enough to not see that right
"U can’t call someone the best IGL in the world when they made one lan event in the year no matter how good they were in the past" bro who are you referring to with this ?????????????
you are also stupid considering if they didn't have fns in 2022 they wouldn't have had NEARLY as much as success they had that year, the only igl that year better than fns was saadhak

so in conclusion, circling back to your original comment, you objectively wrong

Bro nowhere did I say fns was shit, I said he needs to prove himself again
U are objectively delusional, we are talking about fns in 2024, who gaf about him 2023
We as outsiders have literally no clue how much of an impact any igl has so most of our idea of top IGLs comes off of results and fns has not had stellar results considering his rosters in the last 2 years

WE DONT HAVE INFO ON FNS IN 2024 BECAUSE HE LITERALLY DIDNT PLAY LOLLLLLLLLL he OBJECTIVELY MADE THE TEAM BETTER AFTER HE JOINED BACK, don't give me that 5-4 bullshit when they won against a jet lagged loud, 2x OLD FURIA out of all fucking teams, OLD MIBR and the old c9

our idea of top igls STILL INCLUDE FNS, and it is insane that you don't think so even with their lackluster result last year, YOU CANT SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THIS YEAR BECAUSE HE DIDNT PLAY.
you are not even worth arguing with, objectively stupid AND a team secret fan

FNS' igling wasnt the main problem, it was just that when they lost to MIBR it all basically fell apart internally (according to ardiis)
they lost trust in his igling in the middle of the year (EVEN THOUGH IT LOOKED FINE) and because of that the team was bound to fail

How can a guy, whose been sitting and streaming for half the season just suddenly come back and steer a sinking boat to a dock? NRG makes playoffs if this was the team from even split 1
