Please don’t rob this mf of his mvp this time, champs was already a generational performance from him
The problem is that at that time a lot of the International community were somehow still not familiar with LOUD with aspas as their most popular player, and even to this day its hard to name the "Top 3 Pancada plays at Champions 2022" as he didnt have memorable moments and was mostly just trading and closing random rounds.
But Aspas in the Grand Finals alone had more memorable moments than most players in their entire careers:
Blind Knife kill on Marved on Ascent
1v4 13 seconds left on Bind
Collateral + Flick on Breeze
3k on Marved, Prime Chamber Yay and Crashies at 11-12 on Breeze
I think Grand Finals impact is almost everything to win the MVP award, so if Chichoo plays mid at GF even while carrying the whole team for 95% of the event but KK aura farms, it will probably go to KK
I’m not saying Aspas didn’t have impact, but pancada was most consistent, and he put up huge performances in the upper finals vs optic and first rd playoffs when they came back vs Leviatan, both crucial games
Then you had sacy dropped like 35 in the first map of grand finals when they had to come back a 12-9 score
I think part of the reason Aspas won mvp and got glazed was he was historically LOUDS best player, even if he wasn’t at that event
Also I feel duelists will always be more setup to make flashy plays
