pretty sure oonzmlp is their igl, only source I could find confirming it was a korean wiki

can he igl?

sen and geng rosters got slowly picked apart ship of theseus style and people overrated their coaches/systems, edg and th were just fraudulent

lakia needs to be sent to a retirement home expeditiously that brother can't igl or shoot his gun, kr zellsis

there's playing for vibes and there's putting a guy who can't do basic astra postplants on astra when karon is on your team

I guess they want karon on a more frag heavy role even though he's been semi-washed since 2025 but this ash guy actually can't play astra

was this guy just carrying g0ng the whole time or what, the macro and roles are fucked this astra doesn't even know how to use util in postplant

was 2024 a fraudulent year? Many are saying this

tf is ion doing on waylay

oh yeah verno was really working the map lmao, that game was close because aspas went god mode and you're talking about "hero rounds" ffs.

With boaster it's hard to say because out of the 7 maps they played 5 were either complete stomps or a stomp into a choke but some of those stomps (abyss in upper finals, lotus/sunset in grand finals) were on attack side and you cannot put up those scorlines on attack against good teams with bad igling, they weren't just rushing and deathballing with set util combos like old prx there was actual midrounding and pulling of rotations. Off the top of my head there was a round vs gx on haven where after figuring out the defence is leaning a they go b, then cancel the hit to plant c as a midround reaction to a cloud sova ult coming from a and pit to win the round. That is textbook good midrounding on haven.

You're just saying shit with 0 evidence and hiding behind eye test arguments because you're incapable of doing proper analysis. Nrg's controlled playstyle cannot work on attack side without either godlike set strats/macro (ala drx), major aim diff or at the very least solid igling

it is, in fact, true

really took you 3 hours to come up with that one huh, also self-upvoting is cringe. Idk why you're so pressed, you misunderstood my first post then failed to read a 3 sentence response and then started crashing out because I clocked you as illiterate. Literal fucking 3 year old in my replies bro, average prx fan mental age I guess

because it improved from abysmal dogshit to pretty good? 2024 nrg igling was historically awful, now it's quite simple but good enough. Also idk where you got your whole "nrg were outcalled most games" argument when their attack sides were perfectly fine at champs. If a team gets majorly outcalled they don't win rounds on attack side outside of like kc kickoff 2024 level setplays

we really got mfs who can't read a single sentence these days

victor and marved are so much worse than mada/skuba bro

glyph is not that good and will get scapegoated when the m8 honeymoon ends, seven I agree

might need ro start a "2024 was a low level year" agenda

they had the easiest group

if the global decline in literacy doesn't make you at least a little angry idk if your priorities are in order

illiterate, weeb, pick a struggle pls

bbl don't have brains, they're the worst team left in upper bracket unless liquid is complete shit, fnc should clear

can't even hate on c9 without the dumbest people on earth (prx and g2 flairs) thinking I'm shitting on demon1. God himself can't get this team to win anything important so I just want him to shit on immi and the rest of these bums so hard that this org can stop wasting a franchised slot with nepo hires

this is praise wtf do you mean, if anyone can disrupt immi's chokehold on this org it's him

inshallah he'll kill the vibes and end the c9 friendship circle once and for all

they should both be working at burger king asap

to see neiltenyahu and weberstein diffed by goat ange1, life is beautiful friends

he was igling on winthrop so let's just say I don't think they brought him over for his fragging

ppl really thought this team was legit because they got an easy group at champs kkkkkkkkkkkk. Definition of mid

sheydos is so washed jesus

why did no one tell me he was coaching nrg academy, is he done with his degree?

favourite for 2nd place maybe

depends who wins, if it's a favourite who looks insane the whole time I don't see how you can call it a fluke

respect the champs 2021 quarterfinalists

furia last year did not have their full roster because of visa issues, basic never even played in an official

wtf is "muscle training drama", were people on peds or some shit?

last time a vit superteam with derke played an na team they got completely exposed and never recovered. Last time chronicle played an na team he went -11. Feel free to get ahead of yourself again though, the downfall is funnier every year

lads, it's ulf

they don't wanna get laughed at bro, also wtf are they supposed to do they were an aim only team without 2 of ther aimers, they can't grow brains in 3 months

didn't he go double negative last time he had the chance? Brother better have apologised to kajaak on his way out

if derke wasn't derking against "ULF Esports" with subs we'd need to have some tough conversations

"these guys are bums we can save strats" ahh comp

idk about allat but it was funny that he aurafarmed so hard only to be a ghost in both upper and grand finals

actually delusional, he was not a top player on mibr at any point, and certainly nowhere near top 5 americas. He was alternating between being the 4th-5th best player on his own team, yes even when he wasn't igling. You have to be baiting

do you actually believe artzin started playing in vct this year? Sample size is not an issue we know his level, he's good not great and inconsistent

illiterate or baiting?

I mean he isn't a rookie, we know his typical level and while he's overall a very good player calling him top 5 in americas is crazy. I think he's inarguably worse than at least every nrg player, valyn/leaf/trent, aspas/zekken/verno, johnqt, the list could go on but that's already more than 10 players

no he's inconsistent af

it had the best storylines because there were very few meta/map pool changes so teams could be more consistent, the 2024 skye nerf right before kickoff is what started this era of shit changing all the time. It was the last year that felt like a proper season rather than 3 disperesed tournaments imo

extremely top heavy, especially in emea

leo made a legacy off of doing that, biggest vlr rating farmer of all time
