He doesn't. N4rrate does lol.
N4rrate. Not even close. Without his flexibility in agent selection, not sure this is even possible.
Yes, just like there was no way Fnatic would lose to KC. ^_^
No lowers are shit but he's absolutely right. I can't fucking believe Fnatic didn't change any of their comps.
I can't believe they haven't changed comps. They've essentially eliminated any advantage that would have come of having all that groups footage of KC's lotus.
The logic you're using is nonsense. If all of Optic's achievements were so easy, then why didn't other teams accomplish the same during those time periods? Especially as a fan of Navi, who was grouped twice last year, you really have no legs to stand on.
You can call the Optic core shit if you want but then Navi is most definitely less than shit.
Optic Core besides Reykjavik:
Masters Berlin 2nd place
Masters Copenhagen 3rd place
Champions 2022 2nd place
Masters Tokyo 4th place
Keep trying, you aren't going to convince anyone that optic/envy weren't a great team.
It's pretty hard to believe they haven't rigged it at this point.
No way unfortunately. NRG have too much footage of Sen.
Lol, they're definitely playing differently. Whether it's intentional or not doesn't really change that.
your map math is OFF
Lol wtf are you talking about? His analysis has been very good this event. Are you just brain-offing just because he's from LoL?
The game has no value, sentinels is through to playoffs. They're just trolling because why not?
100T looked legit. Definitely wouldn't rate G2 over them.
No, Sen is qualified. Mimi/Ender were uninformed of tiebreaker rules it seems.
lol. That map had nothing to do with nerves.
EG has too much footage. If they played right now, Mibr would definitely lose. Maybe they'll be better during the regular season or maybe not.
The format is definitely an issue. There shouldn't be such a disparity in number of maps shown between teams that have to face off. And yea, them introducing an 8 team international tournament in year 4 is terrible.
I think they've shown too much. 5 bo3s vs Fnatic's 1. Definitely rooting for them but it's very unlikely.
shit format tbh
s0m has never been the best controller in the world. Marved will be in 2022 form this season now that he has a functional team and isnt igling.
Nah, Marved is better. If he was on a functional team last year, he would have been one of the best, if not the best, controllers in the world, just like in 2022.
The odds are in favor of SEN no? Or were the pre-match odds significantly different?
People perpetually overrating SEN for so long has built so much resentment that now when they're actually pretty good, the slightest stumble from them cause people to go crazy with underrating them. It's not over yet but if they do win, I don't think it's really appropriate to call it an upset.
I think you might be in for a rude awakening if you actually believe that.
No. He built it alone. Mce didn't know he was getting fired and was needlessly putting something together with screwface.
Sen maybe, maybe not. Didn't say that about G2. Either way, pretending as if they're in different stratospheres isn't realistic. Those teams(NRG, Loud) would definitely be advantaged but pretending as if an upset could never occur is most definitely delusional.
Plenty of people with 2 brain cells. Saw plenty of people saying EG would be the worst team in americas and putting them low. Personally had EG going through in first place but that definitely wasn't most ppl. Also, you're pretty delusional when it comes to your estimation of the skill of some of these teams. Americas has a competitive field. ALL the teams are good.
When more than half the community is expecting them to go 11th place? Yes, it is a success. That's not cope. Just reality.
A team with 0 expectations losing to NRG/LOUD/SEN/LEV isn't being "exposed."
lol. As far as I'm concerned (and a great many others i'd wager), kick off is already a successful result for this new EG.
There was a top 5 coach ITW thread earlier and some bozo rated Zikz as #2, said he was responsible for EG's success and left potter off of it but I guess you're right, he definitely doesn't have a brain.
Don't think I agree with a lot of these lol. We learned that EG is competent. A lot of people legitimately thought they were going to be an 11th place team. But I think there was also some reasonable people that knew that was never going to be the case. Maybe they'll be insane later on in the year but I'm not quite sure they're their yet. We'll see come playoffs.
Nothing can be done. They used the same format in all the other regions. Not Riot's fault that EG chose to act like terrors and burn down their champions winning roster. And changing it up for a single region would be the opposite of competitive integrity.
100T isn't shit or at the very least, that doesn't seem to be the case anymore from what we've seen. 100T was doomed last year. Not only did they downgrade from Sgares to Mikes as a coach, but they literally only had one coach. In the 1 match a week format where so much time is needed for prep, I think it was pretty much impossible for them to do well.
Also, something that is is seldom mentioned is that in 2022 the team was trained in a way that was extremely exec heavy and going into to 2023 they wanted to play more loose. Imo this more or less erased much of the progress they made as a team during 2022. The players weren't accustomed to heavily using their brains in the mid-round and it showed. They looked lost at the start of the season and remained a mediocre team till the end of the year.
There is no set opponent in playoffs. It's random draw with the only rule being play-in winner avoiding the team from their group. Loud can play NRG as well.
Pretty sure he's being sarcastic lol
huh? is this true? source?
Yea, maybe he edited after remembering the name and forgot to remove that text.
Loud has changed head coaches every year since they began. Doesn't make much sense to rate them #1 does it?
edit: Also, you've seen 2 bo3s from the new 100thieves which also has EG's igl and that alone makes you ready to conclude their assistant coach was a bigger factor in EG's success than their actual head coach? Very interesting.

Did Saadhak grow up in Brazil? I was under the impression he only came to Brazil after becoming an adult and starting his pro career.
