2g Zap

i was watching sacy talk about the situation a few days ago and he mentioned a good point that no one has mentioned in here (at least from what i saw), its the fact that when zap rage quitted a scrim, on the same day it was reported that he rage quitted the team, the fact that it was on the same day is what worries me cause how did the journalist get that info so quickly to publish the news on the same day? this in my opinion means that someone in the inside of the team ratted out and was gossiping telling others what was going on in the team environment and that is much more consierning for 2g then zap leaving, also if the news didnt come on the same day and it was later (like 2 days or a day later), then maybe zap could have avoided gettting kicked cause i feel that the public pressure on the team to do something might have affected their decision on zap.

(sorry for the yap but i thought it was interesting enought to talk about).

that's pretty much it

I saw him in Ascencion and he is so loud man, too extra imo. Poor teammates

and they still beat loud TT (im in despair)

eu desculpo pelo yap

While i agree with you about 2G being careful about information,

if the news didnt come on the same day and it was later (like 2 days or a day later), then maybe zap could have avoided gettting kicked cause i feel that the public pressure on the team to do something might have affected their decision on zap.

I think it's worth noting that 1) He was the one who started speculation by removing all mentions of 2G in his platform and pretty much confirming he was out before the information even leaked 2) Considering that, there is a possibility he was the one who leaked the information himself 3) He was the one who quit and 4) It wasn't just a ragequit let's-just-sleep-and-figure-this-out-tomorrow, he actively shittalked the entire team and broke the trust of all of them and they likely wouldn't accept him as a leader again anyway. Was he right? I don't know. But he was antiprofessional and i don't blame 2G for not accepting him back

Zap might have self-reported, too, somehow. Not willingly, of course, but I can't help but think about what kind of mental state an IGL must be in to leave the team while having scrims and on pretty bad terms with management, too. Do we think it's out of the realm of possibilities that he messed up even further by leaking his situation? Perhaps he talked too loudly in an unfortunate location, or maybe someone with connections to journalists happened to hear it all.

Zap, or any one of the remaining roster or the management, could have talked to someone, who would in return talk to someone else.

I don't think 2G had any reason to feel pressure about Zap's situation, to be honest. While most people saw this as an immature action from Zap especially, I doubt many would have blamed 2G if they had at least let him play in the match against Loud. Because honestly, that match had disaster written all over it, probably even more than most initially thought because they had to bring in a guy who didn't play initiators before and had barely more than 1 day of practice with them.

Or I might be talking out of my azz, because we truly don't really know what went really wrong during those scrims.

SOME YAPPING ABOUT 2G UNRELATED TO THE THREAD:

Interestingly, I do think 2G looked okay against EG, especially in the first map. But Zap threw almost as many rounds as he won with overeager micro decisions, if I recall correctly. And the difference between lz's performance against EG and Loud seems like night and day. Not just him, but all 2G players hit some crazy shots in that match. People are a bit meme-ing with statements like "Was Zap the problem?" and I don't really take this too seriously at the moment, but I am actually looking forward to seeing how they perform individually, at least, even if they don't win the rest of their matches.

It's a bit of a shame that they are playing against the top team of their group after such a monumental win, though.
