trace is very good on ascent but bind came down to vitality not playing very well. trace def isnt shit but vitality needs a better map pool to go deep in the tourney.
more so trace played good tbh. Like rewatching some of the rounds their macro was pretty insane and they have good strats around deadlock. I was pretty impressed.
Never watched trace before but they have good fundamentals, like not overheating (cough cough billy) set protocols, those bind strats with deadlock net and wall was crazy good
So I wouldnt be surprised if trace make it out of groups
Both teams were very good on Ascent but Trace looked better. Sunset seems to be Vit's best map and they definitely outclassed TE on it. Bind was interesting because Trace's strats with their unique comp were actually great. One of the better Deadlock teams I've seen.
