Zekken that high honestly makes no sense. I haven't seen TMV's list but if I see KangKang in another top 10 I'm calling bullshit. Yes he's mechanically excellent but we have no reason to believe EDG will be good this time around. There's got to be 10+ players to put in that top 10 over him.
Don't believe anything you see from vlr or reddit, really. We need actual comments from authorities, the org, etc. People throwing around names like "yeah I knew X would do something like that" is straight up disrespectful and stupid.
I don't know, I think it's close. Smoggy doesn't really get to flex anymore. I think he's currently a better player than forsaken. He played duelist recently on Abyss and looked great.
Does it really happen that often? I feel like that's an exaggeration. But if I were to throw my two cents in I'd say it might be because of esports players being anti-social/outcasts that have no idea how to interact with people or women in general. It's like that with gamers outside of professional gaming so that's my personal opinion.
Last episode because of the map pool. Breeze was the least fun map to play. Almost never felt competitive and the map was boring as shit to play on. Every game was one team stomping the other and it had the most dodges/throwers.
A good Gekko player can farm Gekko ult what, 3 times minimum in a half? That's 6 ults if they get reused. If anything he needs a nerf.
m0n0b00 gonna get so mentally broken by life he'll let patitek take his spot for the rest of champs
Hope to see them together for at least one more year before they move on to other things.
Best Chinese controller/flex probably, but I think KK and Kai are mechanically better. Dude is still one of the goats.
This is spot on. I'll add that if FPX improved their mistakes from Shanghai they would legit be in contention to win champs. That might sound crazy but they had TH and GENG dead to rights in map 3 of each game, but their inexperience and poor defense led to thrown rounds.
If they could get out the death group they could be a dark horse to go quite far, but that's a slim chance because instead of improving they've looked worse post-Shanghai.
Popularity = haters, not hard to understand bro, how many haters does B1ack have? None because no one knows who the fuck he is
They're very good with sheriffs and low buy weapons in general
Does Jawgemo even fit the playstyle of G2? He's incredibly explosive and his best performance were when he had someone like Demon1 to balance things out.
I don't know where these JonahP performances started coming from. I remember him having a number of bad series earlier in the year but he's been killing it every time I see him now. Definitely a top player going into champs.
EDG's comp was lowkey decent, I kind of like the double duelist

Keznit is washed and won't beat bilibili I'm afraid
They didn't just struggle, Vitality straight up cleared them
me: 200IQ gamesense, gets one tapped whenever I swing
my teammate: refuses to save, rage buys ares, runs it down mid and wins gunfight
?
well you see, minibum is cooked keke
you aint winning shit with that nepoduelist on your team
BLG could beat KRU quite easily I think, DRX would be a lot harder. FPX could have beat TH and GENG in Shanghai if they didn't make as many mistakes, this time around it should be a lot harder looking at the current form of everyone. Trace has the easiest route to top 8.
contenders:
GENG (remained the best team itw post-Shanghai and haven't even fully revealed their hand, we've seen them in so many three map and five map series this year so they're used to high pressure, the team is just incredible)
FNC (FNATIC haters be damned, this team deserves massive credit for looking even better with a new player, #2 team itw)
G2 (problem is they've proven to be underwhelming in a best of 5 series, otherwise they look excellent)
LEV (I have to put LEV here cuz of their high level of play since their coaching changed, but part of me feels they're being overrated similar to 100T in Shanghai but hope to be wrong)
TH (mechanically the roster is amazing and they were #2 in Shanghai so they have to be a contender, but there's a chance they get grouped and I'm not sure they have the mental to go the distance)
dark horses:
FPX (IF they make it out of the death group they may have what it takes to win champs, but that is a slim chance. If they improved their issues in Shanghai they would look amazing right now but they've fallen off regionally so they're a question mark team)
DRX (we don't know how this roster will look on the big stage yet)
He looked incredible in some series but I understand why he doesn't want to be on duelist, I think he doesn't want to play with that added pressure. He used his weak performance in the final of Shanghai as an example of why he doesn't want to play that role.
Trace probably have the easiest road to top 8 out of all the chinese teams. Vitality and Talon are both winnable matches for them.
The only thing we could be confident about is GenG coming out on top. I think TH are too inexperienced to win an international right now and I don't understand why anyone would pick them as a top choice to win champs. SEN look like they've taken a dip in quality again (I still expect them to play well). FPX will either go crazy or look like total shit, not sure. This is the worst I've seen FPX look since Madrid.
Honestly I think Group C is way more interesting than Group D. Only matchup that really interesting is the PRX/G2 rematch in my opinion. I'm not really looking forward to anything with EDG, especially not another EDG/PRX match. Group C is sort of a question mark group. We haven't seen 3/4 teams on the stage this year. Will Trace impress or look like a bum team? Will Primmie go crazy on an international stage? Will Vitality choke?
Never saw that video before, yay is 100% spot on about Kai. His mechanics are absolutely unbelievable.
Honestly can't wait for paper rex to play like morons and lose in an international again just so their fans can eat shit lmao, obviously not all of their fans are toxic but so many of them are just bitter people
predicting FPX miracle run and DRX/KRU getting bilibili'd, I have hopium

This is either going to be a close 2-1 game or a FUT 2-0 stomp. I want EDG to do well but their previous international performances concern me.
FPX vs TH should be very close, I could see FPX winning that one. Maybe Trace pulls an upset? Probably not since Sayf might go crazy.
G2-1 PRX, but maybe PRX get revenge?
FUT 2-1 EDG
Not buying an EDG win on an international stage just yet but this might be a close 50/50 game
