will unironically tell you Benjyfishy is the greatest cypher ever then act like you're the idiot 😂😂😂
vlr really earned its reputation
thats just how it is though, that doesnt discredit them from still winning two events, they still won, thats also how life is
u also have no way of proving that FNC would not have won even with their star players present, u can only guess but there is literally NO ONE in the world who can argue confidently that FNC or EG or PRX wouldve won tokyo with demon1 and something no visa issues
players missing due to injuries are a thing in sports too, that doesnt discredit the winning team from winning
but there is literally NO ONE in the world who can argue confidently that FNC or EG or PRX wouldve won tokyo with demon1 and something no visa issues
lol do you know who you typed this to?
players missing due to injuries are a thing in sports too
Staying healthy is an actual part of real life sports. It's not a good comparison to stuff like getting visas
im saying just because there was no visa issues or whatever theres so many factors that come into play that u cant just say just because of visa issues and stuff
for example a guy plays a corner and they dont check it and they win a round and snowball the whole map
im saying its not FNC's fault that eg and prx had visa issues, and thats just real life for ya not everything will be 100% smooth
and no not all injuries are preventable
do you know what could possibly be a bigger overall factor in deciding a game's outcome than not checking corner?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not all injuries are preventable, but injury prevention and staying in shape (cough cough Zion Williamson) are factors that are in an athlete's control and that they are expected to take seriously (Lebron reportedly spends a million a year on his body). It's not at all comparable to getting a visa, which is not in your control and has nothing to do with your in-game performance.
my point was even if u had ur star player and everything one missed checked corner could turn the tides of a game, regardless of the star player, hence u cant prove that the outcome of the game would change based on if they had a star player or not, so ur point that PRX and EG who lost to FNC in tokyo were champion finalists are two seperate factors from the visa issues, sure it definitely hindered them, but u cant pinpoint that visa issues were the majority of the reason why PRX and EG lost to FNC
"oh but the scoreline is close they couldve won"
again, the scoreline is that way because of every single little thing that happens during games and who knows even if demon1 had practice or if something was there what if like leo or alfa just keeps on hitting ridiculous clips and win 13-0, u have no way of proving that
what if EG just missed a timing and lost a crucial buy round?
what if PRX just whiffed a crucial kill and FNC got a defuse off?
all of that and MANY MANY more factors was what led up to the outcome of the game
"not injuries are preventable"
im talking about the unpreventable and the unpreceded ones....
just because opponent teams were injured, that does not disprove FNC's win
visa issues are part of real life and not part of riot or the team's control
If one uncleared corner could turn the tide of an entire game, what about the countless kills that would have gone your way if you had the best player in your region at the time playing with you?
Like this is the most preposterous argument i've ever heard.
You're completely ignoring the entire concept of scale when you try to argue that missing out on huge factors for success are comparable to not clearing a single corner
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As an analogy, the Toronto Raptors won the NBA championship after KD got hurt and couldn't play. Everybody knows that if he didn't get hurt they would have won. Can they truly prove it? No, but everybody still knows it.
You're doing the equivalent of saying we don't know that because sometimes a single free-throw could decide an entire game. It doesn't even make sense.
Now lets take it further by acknowledging that not being able to compete because of injury in an IRL sport is not comparable to not being able to compete because you can't visit a country.
yea thats exactly what im saying
im not denying that PRX and EG would do worse with their best player and practice, is that u cant prove that they would win just because they had their best players
"everybody knows it" its nowhere close to everybody knows it, couldve gone either way
the point is that if they couldnt visit it doesnt matter, a fair and square win is a win, and its not FNC's fault either
the analagy of the injury is that the players could not participate
