They are playing one of the most atrocious fractures I've ever seen, like the astra pick from both teams was already trolling, but it feels like both teams are just lost and don't really know how to play the map, and they keep losing rounds they shouldn't lose.

He's going to LEV

You're pickems drowned so ours could swim

Try and support 100T or G2 next week, then we will really see if you really are cursed or if you're just bad at picking teams to root for.

Rooibos tea

But I also like chai, green, and white tea to

The problem is FNS can't really play flex, he can really only play senti's like vyse, cypher, and killjoy, like he's tried to play breach was not all that good on it, so now he doesn't play it.

Is skye's heal not on cooldown? I seriously thought it was mb, I guess just cross that out of my suggestions.

I mean if we predict the map picks it doesn't look all that good for KRU to be honest if the map picks are as follow:

Sen have to ban Haven, and then KRU will ban Pearl, Sen will pick lotus, KRU will pick split, Sen ban ascent/fracture, Kru ban ascent/fracture, Icebox remains.

These maps favor Sen a lot more than they favor KRU, but maybe KRU make a surprise map pick and end up beating Sen.

Personally fracture is one of my favorite maps, I'd say its probably in my top 4

I would like to see that most rechargeable abilities aren't rechargeable over time but instead if you get 2 kills.

I would make an exception to some abilities like sage's and skye's heal as well as any character who has their smokes recharge, if you pick up certain utility while the match is still going like cypher cam, kj bots, chamber teleport then they would still recharge after a cooldown, but if they were destoyed you would need 2 kills to get them back.

I would nerf breach's aftershocks range and damage a little bit, tejo's salvos would be slower moving through the air and do less damage

Also make it harder for offsite post plants, more obstacles, smaller plant box etc.

He had it in 2023 when he played astra and brim

He doesn't turn 18 until next January I think

There are a lot better tier 2 duelist that can play jett, raze, and yoru that LEV could pick-up over Tacolilla

The problem with this would be that it would punish the team that loses upper finals too much, because the team they face in lower finals would have only played at most 3 maps, while the team who lost upper finals could have played 5 maps, you would have to give the team that lost upper finals something like a 2 map ban for the lower finals for it to be fair.

He said he's sitting out the rest of stage 1 and hopes to come back during stage 2

I feel like I wouldn't want an EU super team because they either always don't live up to the potential and hype or they do well for one year and then they fall off a cliff.

Ah yes they speak Brazilian in Brazil

Loud has actually been pretty decent, but GenG and 100T have no reason

Ain't no way your putting EMEA above AMER

I think its because most of the pacific middle of the pack teams are so interchangeable in where you put them currently, and the only two that you can really say are below the skill level of the rest are ZETA and TS.

I think BME is just rated at the bottom of the middle of the pack teams because they were the runner up to ascension and were eliminated early in kickoff.

I feel like most the aces have been pretty tame and nonchalant

If you think these matches aren't important then you're dumb, winning is important in stage 1 and stage 2 where making playoffs is incredibly important, and by winning more you get a better seeding during playoffs. Also last year by winning 1 of these "non important" matches SEN ended up making it to champs and 100T didn't even though 100T won against SEN during stage 2 playoffs.

I mean with how 100T played today 2G might just have some competition

I mean I do understand the concern of picking him up, but at this point demon1 has brought so many role issues to LEV and has really only been good on jett so far, and mephisto fixes that and has a lot of potential.

I could also see LEV picking up someone like Virtyy who be more tier 1 ready or just waiting until next year and bring Neon up from their academy roster

-Demon1
+Mephisto

I feel like the only teams that could truly be considered rivals with SEN would be loud and GenG

I mean I got half of my pick em's wrong

I picked NRG over C9 because I believed in all the people telling me this time NRG was going to be great
I picked LEV over MIBR because I didn't know MIBR were going to sign verno and I thought that maybe LEV could come back
I pick Loud over Kru because I honestly didn't know who to pick because it seemed like it would be a close game.

So I understand getting some of the games wrong and I get maybe picking 2G over EG because both of the teams are pretty shit, but to pick Furia over G2 is crazy, and to even think 100T are going to win against Sen in the regular season is absolutely braindead.

His aim is still good, but since he's on initiator now he has to focus more on using his util to help his team and stopping the enemy team, while still calling, so he doesn't get to focus on his aim as much.

I mean Sen has a good enough lotus that even G2 bans it against them, so it would make sense for 100T to ban it.

100T banning Icebox over Split made no sense to me though, especially if 100T was going to play the same comp they already showed Sen, did 100T not think that Sen was going to adjust their most dominant map.

Icebox would have made more sense imo, since it just rotated into the map pool and both teams probably haven't had that much time on it, and 100T have a history of being good on it, while Sen have a history of not even practicing it.

I mean I do think viper is better, in fact I think no senti on split is better, but I feel like if 100T were going to play senti they should have chosen a better senti.

What I think 100T should have done instead was have cryo on jett or yoru, or maybe double smokes, double initiator

My question is why would you play sage over deadlock currently, they do almost the almost the same thing but deadlock just does everything better.

Boostio did call a terrible split, but his calls on pearl and haven were actually really good, its just that the team couldn't convert any man advantages, so I think you keep boostio (even if he's currently not fragging well).

I think the biggest problem is asuna and cryo with their role issues and their completely different playstyles, I think that 100T should choose one or the other to keep.

The whole point of the comp is the trap plays and once another team sees it, it becomes a much easier to not get trapped and then the comp becomes much easier to deal with.

Its not luck if it has happened so many times, 100T are just throwing rounds

you forgot to add M80 are destined to eternally finish 2nd place

I mean the problem is s0m insists that he has to play with fns and will quit if fns does so s0m sadly isn't an option to keep

-FNS
-s0m ( They would have to drop him because he doesn't want to play without FNS)
+Spaz
+Paincakes
Keep Brawk(IGL),
Keep Mada
Keep Ethan for now (possibly replace with Darker, but there might be a language barrier so they might not want to)

Seriously, and yet there is always someone who feels the need to pick reyna on split even if you need another role, and then will proceed to bait every round

-reyna
-sage

don't have to get rid of harbor since no one plays him anyway

And then all is good in the world

I have seen 0 racism, what drugs are you on.

Also ethan is no longer a good player after that performance.

I like both teams, but I think Kru win this.

You're just mad that Ethan has gotten power crept by players who can not only get a lot of kills, but also put up more assists

He may be a support type player, but he didn't even really get the number of assist a support player should get, even his kast was pretty low for someone who is not playing duelist.

Is MGK even a rapper?

You guys kept saying ethan is a great player and his util is some of the best, but from what I have seen over the last 2 years, his util is mid and he can't even shoot back.

Literally carried by EG in 2023.

If you put the prime loud members on NRG then yes

You see xeppaa has to use his own life force to play good everytime he plays good he shaves years off his life.

ong China production is goated, the only complaint I have is that there is no english casting, but other than that it is great

G2 end up bombing out of stage 1 and don't make masters toronto

And heals herself because she took a tiny bit of damage, meanwhile you're at 30hp
