How do you try and justify any of your wins keke team was never the best.
LOCK//IN:
Did not play against a single team that reached playoffs except Furia (KEKE and almost lost to them). Played n0vi (got cleared hella hard the rest of the year). And almost lost to LOUD when they lost two of their super star and most rated players from the previous year.
On top of this horrible single elim format and newly formed teams.
Tokyo:
Got free skip to playoffs AFTER LOSING TO LULQUID. Beat NRG where Ardiis dropped possibly the worst rating/stats that I’ve ever seen, PRX with a PUBG streamer, almost lost to EG when their star player wasnt even guaranteed to play, and then played them again.
Champs:
Played against ZETA (kekw) and then played against a shaky BLG to qualify for group stage. Got cooked by LOUD, beat FUT (these guys basically got a free pass into playoffs), almost got cooked by DRX (5th-6th place curse was way too strong plus they looked off after the first map), and then they got cooked by LOUD again.
Didn’t make Madrid yet keeping the same team (keke), bombed out of Shanghai, and had an easy road in champs since BLG and KRU were basically free and G2 was off.
“Other teams caught up to them” - Fraudnatic Fan
No they didn’t teams just realized how to get their visa issues solved and could maintain a team that wasn’t made with little prep. Fraudnatic cannot win with b0tster on the team even if chronicle and derke are trying their best.
