Leviatan were really good, but Liquid wasn't that great either. I think they definitely looked better today compared to their game vs Leviatan.

My guess would be Jamppi but just by like 1cm

Yeah the game was close, but my point was that I thought Liquid would get grouped because of their form at the time. They were looking pretty weak in EMEA and just got carried by their individual skill. Classic Liquid tbh.

hmmm coincidence? I don't think so.

TL and FPX IMO both are insane on ecos

Trolling with Phoenix pick. Scream was dominating on Jett last time they played, but decided to change comp for some reason. Unlucky.

yeah that is true, but its Scream and I think Phoenix suits him better he isn't super aggro player

Pheonix can add a lot of pressure on both sites and middle due to wall, but yeah I don't see why would you play this. But who knows.

Leviatan is insane. Wasn't too sure after Liquid game, but them 2-0ing TL and PRX is impressive. All things considered IMO they might even look like the best team in the tournament right now so far. Their form is just really good rn. TL and PRX weren't playing their best against LEV, but still.

lol but in all seriousness I mean teams like Vitality, MAD Lions, KOI, Heretics teams like that who have good pieces but not tier 1 level rosters.

What I'm scared of is that there will be orgs with tier 2 level rosters taking franchising spots and not making enough changes for next year.

Who is Edward? For the blind, He is the vision. For the hungry, He is the chef. For the thirsty, He is the water. If Edward thinks, I agree. If Edward speaks, I’m listening. If Edward has one fan, it is me. If he has no fans, I don’t exist.

They should have gotten grouped during Reykjavik, but made it out so no problem if they get grouped here. Hard group especially with Leviatan performing like they did. And on top of that their form against Leviatan wasn't same as in LCQ.

ok we will see in few days

scream, you look like a lion LUL

Yeah APAC having as many slots as EMEA and NA feels weird, but it likely has to do with the population. Also PRX and Xerxia are always top 2 so someone else getting a chance competing internationally is good for the region.

I was predicting EDG, but after seeing Leviatan vs PRX I'm not so sure anymore. I feel like TL's problems won't be as problematic when facing EDG. They aren't the greatest when it comes to strats and stuff so Scream doesn't have to trying to outbrain them.

I Googled and it disagreed with you

idk but I always get around 20 ping in CSGO unless playing Faceit then its 40, but in Valorant and Overwatch I always have like 70 ping. I guess its just difference in servers.

I didn't see the picture, but apparently multiple players were having stomach problems (diarrhea) according to Plat Chat. Or at least some where. And even if you look at the song VCT posted with Boaster singing to his teammates he also makes it sound like that Enzo was having diarrhea problems at the time. So its possible that there has been problems with the food for some reason and multiple players have gotten food poisoning and for some its been worse like Ardiis and Davai.

Shao. He is really smart player, has good game sense and has really good mechanical skill and doesn't overheat too much. That is why he has high clutch potential. On top of that he is super flexible. Guy can play anything from initiators to controllers to duelist. Also when ANGE1 was away during Stage 1 Shao took the main caller role if I'm not wrong.

I think player like Suygetsu has higher peak at least as star player, but Shao is just so consistent and good at what he is doing. So well rounded.

Imagine if this happened. I remember so much talk when V1 won over Team Liquid just for them to get eliminated before Team Liquid and Fnatic. Obviously Sentinels won the whole thing, but it was quite amusing. Acend lost their first game against Vivo Keyd (first time around) just for them to win the whole thing. This tournament and even group stage is still so open for everyone.

This is just normal DRX performance. Nothing more, nothing less.

no I am bot

Only problem with Fnatic is that they have perma ban as Breeze and their Pearl wasn't that good yesterday. Without Pearl Fnatic would win, but it depends on how much of mistakes they can fix. I think 100T benefited a lot from that.

They may still win, but no new map and will not having life game = lose

both

Hoody > Hoody Org

That is true, but I think they do pretty good job with LoL and its leagues but letting G2 into NA would just confirm that they don't care for EMEA almost at all and that they don't want to build it to similar potential than let's say LEC in LoL. G2 is the EU team even if they don't have rosters that do good.

Their worst map

Terrible mps for FpX

If G2 makes it to NA that is terrible thing for EU. It will just show that Riot wants to make America's the main league and that they don't care that much about EMEA. Letting biggest and most known EU org to NA.

that was so bad

my fantasy league captain

Can't say yet. Fnatic vs 100T played Pearl and it was first official on that map for both teams. Can't judge too much considering that majority of teams are still shit on it compared to what they will be in couple months. Will was having insane game and we don't know can he keep up that form. Liquid lost all pistols and couple bonus vs Leviatan and still went 10-13 on both maps with some fixes they could convert those rounds. And Leviatan are on good form right now and even won vs PRX. And OpTic still has the problem of getting fucked on first maps and they can not keep winning 2nd and 3rd map everytime. We don't know how FPX will look like. Many questions still and things that we don't know. Too hard to judge after 1st group games.

FPX interviews and press conferences are the best

hmm

Can't say yet for this year at least. FPX might be even more consistent depending on how they perform here. EMEA Stage 1 1st place and EMEA Stage 2 2nd place while OpTic placed 2nd in both NA Stages. And OpTic won Masters 1 while FPX won Masters 2. FPX couldn't attend Masters 1 while OpTic finished 3rd in Masters 2. But I do believe that full FPX would have achieved top 3 placement in Masters 1.
For all time that is true, but "right now" not sure yet.

0 am I only one who can read or am I wrong?

Others outside of half of Xerxia, half of Zeta, half of EDG, half of LEV, FURIA

sure lets see next year

They got fucked by DRX and PRX and pretty badly by FPX on Fracture. Same with Haven vs PRX. And their Icebox isn't good. Its just yay carrying them usually. Like they are getting hard owned on these maps against good teams.

They have good record on it lately tho if I'm not wrong. Before Champions obviously. I just think that their map pool isn't as convincing anymore because teams know how they play and some results show that. Not picking Bind was bit surprising, but I guess LOUD are good on it and OpTic maybe tried to bait them into preparing for it.

True unless OpTic reverse sweeps. OpTic has been bit meh for some time. Not bad, but not as good as before. They constantly get 13-5>'d by teams nowadays. Its not good look even if they end up coming back.

I don't know maybe their map pool just isn't that good anymore. Breeze has been one of their best maps as of late. They have been rolled on maps like Fracture and Haven(?). And their Icebox is pretty weak and is just Yay show.

I didn't even realize the game started. What happened? 11-1 first half??

Fnatic doesn't have to replace Boaster or Mini tho. And 7ssk7 is good when in form. He has been inconsistent in the past, but he put up nice performances during Stage 2 and LCQ. At least he is better and more proven than d3ffo or purp0. And also need to remember that he was playing on NaVi that had problems of their own. He could perform well in roster that has better support players.

I'm fan of TL like all of EMEA but I'm not delusional like most fans are

Was he tho? I was pretty disappointed of his performance during Copenhagen. He kept Fnatic in the tournament due to clutches on Bind, but outside of that he didn't perform to my expectations. In EMEA he was cold and good at anchoring and clutch situation while having arguably 2nd best Fade util at time (behind Shao). But on LAN he has looked pretty shaky most of time and a lot of times he seems to be pretty unaware of what is happening around him Easy to say as spectator. And even his utility has felt weaker. Reminds me a lot of him during Reykjavik even if he was a sub. Just really shaky and tunnel vision at times.

Oh yeah forgot that, but meant vs 100T. Japan was garbage back then.
