EG are fine individually, their player are top 5 in each position. The problem is their teamwork.

Do you think that Cr1t is a top 5 captain? I feel like he could become one for sure, but I don't think he's there yet.


Maybe Crit is a good captain, but I don't think hes the right fit for EG. I feel like they need strong ingame leadership and I don't think that is Crit's way of captaining

Perhaps that's what Cr1t was used to on OG. Fly/Notail are such a couple that I imagine they've developed a collaborative captaining style. A style that doesn't work for EG, and a style that Cr1t hasn't mastered.

its not just about picking WW, its that the WW by Cr1t just felt subpar, very few curses and very few good cold embraces.


He was getting jumped on first and destroyed in a lot of fight tho. Nyx vision into Sven jump was pretty lethal


His positioning was pretty bad, so still on him.

Must feel absolutely amazing for a team like Empire to beat EG while using a standin. I don't think anyone could have predicted this

Standin is probably one of the main reasons this happened. A guy who knows what to do is pretty important.

In a way, Empire is stronger with Resolution, lol. He is an insanely good carry.

I think it puts less pressure on Empire, firstly you are seen as the weaker team, secondly you have a standin so you have low expectations. The pressure EG has on them is immense.

While that feels real fucking bad watching EG lose to fucking Empire. The nice part of being a MN Vikings fan is I know pain and disappointment so well that I'm already over it.

Sumail can go anywhere he wants. I can see him trying to have a run with his brother.

loser interview is common thing in sport, i still remember when iniesta did it after he lost la liga title to atleti in final match

however, i hate it personally as it gives player an extra burden
