its jus eg 2023 all over again ðŸ˜
nah, c0m and boostio were nobodies (in the sense that they were garbage). jawgemo was a promising upcoming talent pre-franchising and ethan was an established player who was well respected by most people in the scene. demon1 was technically a "nobody" but I feel like an unknown rookie performing well is less surprising than known players performing above the level we previously knew of them
that's my point here, nats patitek and keiko are known talents. we know what their level is like from previous years. nats was relatively underwhelming and you wouldn't even place him in top 5 sentinels emea last year, patitek was the worst player on heretics and was awful aside from shanghai, keiko was pretty good but he was inconsistent and no superstar.
brother... let's say both teams have "good chemistry" and yet vitality is losing right now despite undoubtedly having the better players, why are they losing? liquid is playing around each other way better than vitality is which is why I'm saying their chemistry is "better" and replacing one of their players for a firepower upgrade in the middle of the season would be stupid
