embarrassed for them ngl
I ain't a pessimist but to throw a 12-6 and just call it experimenting is not done. It's fine that Kaplan decided that the boys should figure it out themselves by not calling timeout earlier but last season too had elements of this (eg vs sen split 2 & sen vs edg upper bracket). We lose momentum and then we throw a match from winning position. I totally have faith in Kaplan to turn things around but to not acknowledge shortcomings is being ignorant
Thats completely fair but I'm not just talking about that bind game. To be completely honest they should've decimated MITH on pearl defence side and ended it in 2-0. Two senti's one initiator and they were contacting mid almost every round, they could've easily set up a mid trap but continued to give it up and play retake 90% of the rounds.
