idek what you think i am to be calling me that specific combination of things bruh

cry abt it

i aint reading allat

Obvs the level of teamwork wasn't close C9 got ruined. C9 watched fnc play breeze and ascent hours b4 only reason y they got those maps.
To answer ur first question C9 previously leaf, xeppa, zellsis, runi and jakee but b4 that they had leaf, xeppa, curry, mitch and vanity in late 2022 and that iteration of the team was considered to 3 na with xset and opitc the match play played against c9 had the core of the 2022 iteration which had played a full season together.
Ur second question is weird because 1 C9's roster last year had 5 players, I meantioned that 4/5 of the players at this tournament were previously on the starting roster because that means the roster isnt completely new (5/5 players who had never been on the roster is completely new). 2 fnc didn't start practicing again until late October a week b4 the tournament like I said C9 confirmed their roster 29/09 and started playing off season matches b4 fnc even confirmed their coach so if anyone should be "continuing to build there chemistry and cohesion together" its C9 fnc had been off for a month. And abt the no star thing i made this account like 2 days ago I'm now to vlr and i see why it gets its reputation.
Whats really fucking dumb is u saying that im "trying to act like the level of teamwork should be even remotely close" bro I'm saying it clearly wasn't thats y fnc won C9 got diffed and I'm saying that despite the clear advantages C9 had over them they still won convincingly.
Your trying to insinuate that despite winning fnc going 5 maps against C9 is humiliating and they should've cleared them every map like they hard prepped for this tourney and super tryharded the whole way thru.
3-2 doesn't tell the whole story that's y u have to actually watch the games and understand the context b4 getting in a thread to judge peoples opinions via digital stars. idagaf how many stars I have btw idek what they mean or how to get them.

Also the only 2 maps they lost were the ones they played against DRX hours b4. C9 basically got to watch how they play b4 the game started and those r the only maps they won. 13-8 13-5 13-7 on maps they couldn't antistrat live against fnc. the game was lowkey rigged against them in almost every way and they still won.

completely new is crazy 4/5 of the guys were on c9 previously for at least a full split and curry was an active pro who knew the team. They literally built the team out of previous members of the roster and got oxy in as duelist. fnc met their coach 1 week b4 the tourney started had a week to prac b4 the tourney to win all their games and somehow they're bad. 2-0 then 3-2 against franchised teams in a few hours after 1 working week of prac without having to innovate would b crazy for kc but when fnc do it they look bad. Your making it sound like they lost to a team of 4 slapped together na pros with PROD subbing in jus say fnc are goated.

8 maps in that day and barely any prac b4 the tourney and ended the last map 13-5 bro did u even watch the game

8 maps that day, basically 0 practice, new head coach, year old strats, year old comps, still finished the series 13-5 against a comp that theoretically counters the default one on haven. Only the best team in the world wins in that situation
