Keep holding onto it loser, things won't be much better for loud in Madrid...

Top tier throw LOUD

You don't have to keep reminding us that your last brain cell is on the fritz

Pretty clear you're actually an idiot. All you do is act like a toxic degen everywhere you post. I think I'm more amazed how you haven't been disabled from posting yet than you being the only one around here to use htoh as head-to-head when literally everywhere else is human-to-human. Guess I overestimated your education level; we'll make sure to type at an elementary level for you next time.

Child, take this human-to-human stick out of your ass and accept the facts instead of making yourself look more and more like some incompetent fool. Or is your online ego too fragile to concede that skuba got completely outmatched by clear?

are you brain dead? the stats prove it right there...

Simply put, they either got outplayed and outgunned or they weren't able to keep momentum enough in crucial moments. Teams like Loud, Optic, and DRX were all able to adapt in those crucial moments that would have had their fates sealed otherwise. Key players were able to step up in the clutch when needed and pull off some crazy upsets, it happens all the time in both e-sports and physical sports. While last year was very much a 50/50 mix of NA and EMEA success, this year it was much more NA/BR with EMEA trying to keep up. Having watched both Masters splits for NA and EMEA, I really didn't feel like a majority of the EMEA teams appeared "complete" whereas there was a more clear representation of that in NA.
