if he wins another event this year (and if aspas doesnt) he has a claim to goat imo. not saying he is but it's a real conversation atp

Aspas dragging MIBR to top 3 Americas by himself (and playing 4v6 sometimes because of nzr) > Derke winning an event on a SUPER super team.

Derke is still an amazing player but he couldn’t drag a team like KOI to top 3 EMEA by himself

was it not?

literal goat duelist
very highly regarded fragging IGL
ascension winning duelist-turned-senti
another world champion
mazino (sorry bro)

at worst this is at least pretty damn close to a superteam they just didn't win. doesnt mean it wasnt a team of stars

"Another world champion" c0m was literally cancelling out aspas's insane performances all year

There was legit a stat pre stage 2 c0m went -90 or something across all series and aspas went like +180. Legit was undoing all of aspas's hard work

I agree.
I agree.
Wait, isn't that description of Tex a bad thing?

C0M was a world champion but performed poorly the entire year. His only good moment was in the group stage of Champions.
Mazino was very inconsistent.

No, it wasn't a superteam. A superteam is FNC, VIT, etc.

why would tex be a bad description? he isnt as good a duelist as... aspas? it's ascension-winning duelist firepower on another role and he was insane the entire year. easily 2nd best after aspas

i feel like people are judging "superteam" based on results. when lev was formed it was called a superteam and it was a team of superstar-level players (or close to that level) who had thrived on other teams all coming together. that IS a superteam. if vitality fail to win anything this year they will still be called a superteam. it's not about whether you win it's about the individuals being brought to the team is it not?

idk if you follow the nba but the nets got kevin durant, james harden and kyrie all on 1 team and everyone said it was a superteam - they never won and they all left after a few years. it was still a superteam because it was formed by bringing together 3 superstar players from other teams

What are you talking about? Tex was only the second-best player on LEV in one tournament, which was Masters Shanghai. Other than that, Kingg was better than him in pretty much everything else.

Well, I never considered LEV a superteam. Yes, people had high expectations for them in 2024, but you can't compare Tex, a Tier 2 duelist who switched to Sentinel, with Less, or C0m, the worst player on EG 2023, with Trexx.

Bro they literally won americas 2024 with aspas being the MVP, and btw Loud won americas 2023 with Aspas being the mvp, how about derk being mvp of emea back to back i dont saw this happening.

derke has more international finals appearances and if he wins with vitality it will prove he can be duelist on the best team in the world on 2 different teams - aspas only won with loud

at that point it will at least be a conversation about who is the goat instead of just 100% aspas no?
