They had dominant wins against both FPX and GenG. They can dominate teams just fine. It's just the better teams that are left.

He doesn't want to play duelist lol. He's said so more than once.
Same in APAC. Probably the same in all regions tbh.
The flag is irrelevant. lol. Tex has lived literally his entire life in the usa.
Lev is not G2's easiest match-up lmao
You're not entirely wrong but that essentially applies to basically everything when it comes to competition at the highest level. There could be some youth/youths that, if given proper resources, would be the greatest ever seen to the current date in X, Y, or Z sport/esport/activity but will never get that opportunity because of the circumstances they were born into.
Not a bad thing to keep in mind but, practically speaking, there's very little to nothing that can be done about that, so not much reason to talk about it.
Read the first line in the post
By a slim margin, sure, congratz. lmao.
I can do math just fine. If you consider that a SIGNIFICANT out performance, you're the stupid one.
They don't believe it because it isn't true. lol. Americas and Emea went 3-3 in series against each other at shanghai overall.
Lev got 9th/10th
100T got 4th
G2 got 3rd
Fnatic got 7th/8th
Fut got 5/6th
Heretics got 2nd
If you wanna pretend that those placements give EMEA a significant edge in performance for that tournament, go ahead. Don't expect others to do that.
Lost 9 rounds in a row. Lol. That isnt a choke.
un-diagnosed health issue forced him to take a break
There's no point in being hyperbolic and saying something like "there's no chance SEN win." That's fucking stupid. Are FPX favored in the form SEN currently are in? Yep. But is it totally possible SEN recover a bit and beat them and maybe even qualify? Also yep.
They're morons.
This team was bottom 2 last year in the league. Now they're at champions. I don't know how you morons can see that and think "lets fire the coach who made that happen." Makes 0 sense. lmao
And why would they fire him for that? Individually, the furia roster did have more firepower, especially when primmie wasn't on the team, which is when he said it. Should people be fired for speaking facts?
Faze players were still getting that type of pay last year (30k a month). It would be surprising but not impossible for the OXG players to also still have that type of pay.
I wouldn't say it's meaningless. It's a sign of potential. If you can get your fundamentals, understanding of protocols and decision-making to a good level, having phenomenal mechanics (by pro standards) just means you can be that much better of a player. Primmie will be fine, at least in the short term with Frost there.
Lol. It's not hyperbole. Other players have said similar things about primmie. If you watch the clip, he's purely talking mechanics. But a measure of how good a player is never just mechanics. Aspas is clearly the better player overall and the best player in the world. We don't have to pretend he's mechanically the best to know that.
I mean yea. Is anyone really surprised to hear that? Aspas has good mechanics but what make him so good is his ability to read other players/situations and play the line between aggression/passivity to a degree of perfection that far exceeds his peers. Aspas is really high up there with mechanics but he's never been the most mechanically gifted player in the world. There have always been others that exceed him, even if just barely at times, in that aspect of the game.
He's still, relatively, early on in his chemo treatment. There's no doubt that he's not gonna be at his best. That's why they initially benched him but considering how bad they looked against Blinn, they've seemingly changed their minds and probably think that their best chances of making ascension are with him, even with the handicap he's dealing with (feeling terrible from chemo+limited practice because of that).
Naw. It's just a fucking dumb law, especially removing it from this context/type of case. Not every scenario where you're gonna be sued for defamation involves potential criminal activity by an individual.
Korean defamation laws are indeed crazy from what I've seen. Even if everything you're saying is true and can be proven to be true, you can still be sued for harming someone's reputation.
Split 3 isn't relevant to ascension, which is what all these players/teams really care about.
The groups will be randomly drawn with each being composed of a #1, #2, #3 and #4 from each of the different regions. It's not totally random. You can avoid the theoretical best teams from other regions if you get a better seed or win your region.
Top 4 is champs and 1 year renewal. If they make top 8, then they go to ascension tournament. Bottom 4 is auto relegation.
Definitely not atm, not even close too. Hopefully they can make a resurgence for champs.
Not worried. Seeds do matter but if they can't qualify over another region's #1/#2 seeds, then they probably weren't gonna do real damage in the playoffs anyway.
Lol no. 2023 LCQ.

I just don't buy it. They had a good amount of time off since they didn't make Shanghai. If they're legitimately burned out again after a few weeks back in full swing, after other teams have played all season while still performing well, then the players just shouldn't be playing this game professionally.
100T would qualify over G2 if they remain tied at 11 points. They have the season long H2H over G2.
Not an esports org thing. He talked about this on stream like a week ago. She's from the same town/neighborhood and they basically grew up together. So she's like a friend/family friend.
Then you're kinda dumb. This team was bottom 2/3 last year. Doesn't make a lick of sense to doubt the coach that brought them to champs.
Talon have played Secret 4 times this season in Bo3 matches. Talon has won 3 out of 4 of those Bo3 matches. Talon therefore has the H2H over secret. Simple.
Not that complicated. Talon and secret both have 7 points now. Even if they lose out, Talon have a 3-1 match head to head over the course of the season over Secret.
You know what a blowtorch is? Using that on someone.
Lol. Sure you can call them a waste if you want. And secret would have been a bigger waste.
You can just youtube his name I think. He finishes rank1 like every season. And mechanically alone, it's very clear he's probably the best player in the world.
Demon1 lost his first match starting for EG and had a middling performance. And honestly, he wasn't that insane for a while. Like I said, even if he did poorly, one match wouldn't tell us anything. But it seems like that isn't the case.
edit: also im not sure what you mean by do it in one game, he doesn't need to massively improve the team in the first place. Even without him, Talon vs TS should be a close affair.
Nonsense. Even if they lose and primmie doesn't do well, we won't know if it's over-hype until next year when he's playing regularly. It's just one series.
You guys are going a bit crazy. It's definitely not gonna be more than a single player (if it's happening at all).
No they don't. If they beat G2, they get 1 championship point for the win and they also secure the second place bye which gets them another. That takes them to 14 points which no other team can catch up to which secures champions qualification.
