in swiss? you only need two wins to make playoffs: two 2-0 teams (undefeated) and two 2-1 teams (3 games) make it through in this event

TH can beat any team on a good day but some matches are bound to be harder than others which is why I am not 100% confident they’ll make it out, they’re also known for having many rough games and so far this season it has been looking more rough. They could pull a SEN in bangkok

avoid NA teams (negative win rate somehow)
don’t let something overheat
keep the team under check

depends on who they get in the draw

rematches are usually scary for the winner

i think TH scrapes by though, map veto will be completely different

well for starters they don’t have many good IGLs

EMEA haters or aspas fans don’t like them

breach on pearl 🥀

this is equivalent to asking who you’d support between elon and trump

I’m just going by your logic 🥀

could’ve said f0rsaken or jinggg instead of alecks

who cares about NA teams having a negative record against chinese teams?

0/2 incoming 🥀

Who do you got tomorrow

let’s not forget that PRX has a negative record against NA TEAMS

miniboo C tier 😭

i think t3xture should be moved up to S tier and miniboo + jawgemo in the A tier

it sucks to see them get hate today purely because of the unfortunate circumstances with nAts.

they aren’t the CLEAR best team, but there isn’t a big gap whatsoever

I agree, while they could’ve played better against TL, there is always room for improvement and I’m excited to see how they perform in their next game

Nats is not only a star player but also the igl meaning most plays ran through his calls which no other igl can match because every igl is different and have a different way of viewing the game added with the fact that the person taking over as the igl did not have enough time to even adjust to the team

so why exactly are you surprised that TL lost today?

True, but that is not why TH lost

lysoar is going to get spanked by zekken again 🤫

he’s kinda right though

in the grand scheme of things the win is what matters no matter how scrappy the game/series is

whzy best player ITW

NT to liquid though that was a fun series to watch

tell yay to not dash forwards next time then

It only works for them because of their play style

THAT WAS INSANE, I THOUGHT TL LOST THE ROUND

if they want their name pronounced that way then fuck it who cares

China #2 seed beat the LITERAL world champions to qualify for toronto btw

TLs problem is that they let BLG get 5 rounds on defense

FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE THE CHAMPS FINAL. OH HOW IVE MISSED THIS MAP

why do people HEAVILY underestimate the importance of IGLs?

nah everyone had KC top 2, geng were rated lower than that

T1 won bangkok barely using tejo and sen didn’t even make their regions playoffs after madrid

tokyo

double controller and sentinel will take over

downvoted for the truth 😭

homeless man calls another homeless man broke

an initiator without a rechargeable ability will always be niche

rest in piss sentinels

fnatic have 4 experienced players and an insane rookie who’s had a monstrous split. i think the glaze is justified

they announced him yeah

they’ll get better with time

support your region instead of doom posting, BLG are a good team and I feel like they’ll do better than expected

bro they legit lost EVERY round with two man advantages in that game, don’t remind me

TL comp is shit on def, BLG are winning this

FPX ran this comp in shanghai against TH (patitek was on that team btw) and almost eliminated them

this is what no nats does to the team

we playing THREE controllers and no viper 😂

TRACK BY TRACK

i fw BLG but just for nAts i hope they win ❤️
