what’s stopping them from playing mazino skye, c0m viper, tex cypher (raze if double duelist), kinggg omen, tex raze (jett if double duelist)?

EDG will ban ascent and another map th are the definite favs on (icebox 99%)

trembolona, where are the aspas stats for todays game vs TH?

that same fnatic lost to loud twice and are boasting about winning champs if loud wasn’t in their way lol

but i thought TH would be better with miniboo gone?

unfortunately the vetos don’t affect TH that much

always have a rating say like 1.25 in internationals then a few games later it drops to below 1.15 (his highest rating in an international) this year being at 1.14

on one hand i want TH to win it because they are all hard working super talented players who hasn’t won ANY trophy (including regionals) this year and it would be nice for them to get a champions, on the other hand EDG went from being a joke in madrid and shanghai to top 2 in champions, heretics are also undefeated vs cn teams so this is edgs perfect moment to exact revenge on them

facts

elimination games are always the worst 😔

lev = less latam players needed to get top 3

make it make sense man

what’s wrong with icy and miniboo? lol

let’s not forget loud failed their reverse sweep last year, went 0-2 in tokyo playoffs without a single map after winning vct league and also got 3rd at champs

identical results this year: grouped in shanghai, stage 2 champs and top 3 at champs

not bad for playing with “these frauds”

it’s not as bad as you think, edg will ban ascent which is also heretics perma ban, then they ban another map that TH are much better and asides from that, both have good map pools

EDG map veto advantage doesn’t benefit them as much as you think, TH are well rounded on all maps and ascent is 100% getting banned which benefits TH

TH are international merchants

can’t hate this guy bruh

thank god you switched back, flair

i mean it’s a big weight on your shoulder having to try and defend your title alongside your fallen brothers who didn’t make it to champions, that and they were 2 rounds away from grand finals. it’s probably why he’s crying, can you hate on literally anyone else please 😭

edg vs heretics, fire ass match

i love how c0m and tex have the most normal introductions LMAO

what kinggg do tho?

WE ARE SO CLOSE HOLY FUCK

ofc tex had to jinx it

sending americas teams home name a more iconic duo 😭

i think TH can still win which is the concern here, like the map veto disadvantage doesn’t hurt them THAT bad

and edg who has nothing to do with this series in specific i just mentioned them because they’re the complete opposite, their attack is ok but they won so many defense rounds in this tournament

i always feel like lev wasn’t as good as people think, like before this match ofc

aspas is very good tho even if people call him a statpadder, his impact can def be felt at times

ascent and icebox and edg might pick haven first idk

respectfully, a 5-1 lead means nothing, look at sen yesterday, up 6-2 on 2nd map vs th and look what happened

bro just have faith in them

nah, ascent hasn’t been played at all in playoffs i actually fw it

wdym??? that series was incredibly close and kind of iconic because it “humbled” demon1

cove mentioned?!?!?

i like aspas and c0m tbh, say all you want about c0m being shit and blah blah blah but i think he’s a super kind person and likeable

lev fake reverse sweep

eg vs prx uppers im not talking bout this year bruh

that 1v2 shouldn’t haunt you considering prx won that series lol

i don’t see it happpening, they learned from their mistakes last time vs fnatic

BUT BUT WOOT ON DUELIST??

2023 fnatic imo

i think edg with time, in internationals will prove themselves more even if it means not winning a trophy but making close placements

i think the reason you consider EDG the way you do is because most of their wins aren’t “dominant”

th hard choked a 11-2 lead vs g2 in their second matchup and destroyed everyone in lowers including g2 in their third rematch in shanghai so meh

can’t you say that for every team though?

aspas is goated but even then i still feel the same way about lev, maybe it’s because their OT wins make me look down on them more lol, or the fact they lost to fut who fluked their way to 6th place in shanghai, but lev don’t seem as scary as people think, while TH on the other hand feels more like a team than anyone else in this tourney and they proved it

EDG 3-2 LFG

that’s how everyone felt about g2 lol

this is exactly how i feel about lev actually

go back to your TL flair i need to say “flair” for no reason

better than RB

i think that’s a good thing tbh. he’s grown a lot in player development since then and even tho there isn’t that oomf to it he’s still a great OPer

fan base. actual team itself is super likeable
