To me, this feels like a long first episode to animes that need a lot of context to get into. Like Re Zero or The Detective is Already Dead. Looking forward to more episodes of this from TMV lol.

[@ZephYanezVal]

Yeah. To say my faith in this team is shot is an understatement. I've followed this core for a long time and they haven't looked this lost ever. It's not a talent issue, it's an issue with leadership, mid rounding and roles. Ethan as an IGL was always a bad idea, but most of us assumed the "high end talent" would just bail them out. It's almost like any team with a semblance of coordination can take down NRG because pro player skill gap is so negligible. The only roster change this roster needs to make if finding a IGL.

[@cloudyskyz2237]

Chet’s time outs also did nothing. Idk what he was telling them, but nothing worked. Nothing.

[@aishwarybhat5673]

but the question is , at this point , would u accept FNS as an IGL for NRG if given the chance to bring him back ? I positively think they can.

[@ZephYanezVal]

@@aishwarybhat5673 Anything is possible.

[@otakuoreo]

@@aishwarybhat5673I feel like FNS would be a massive upgrade in terms of IGLing (ofc, he’s the goat) but he wouldn’t join. He left to stream and I don’t think he’s planning coming back to pro play at all this year. Praying for next year though lol

[@drexalte69]

⁠@@aishwarybhat5673 If he was to go to nrg, he wouldn’t have left in the first place, he has made it very clear he wants to build a team or at the very least have some control over talent recruitment.

[@nicksetzer4563]

I’m not trying to shittalk pro players, but Ethan saying at the beginning of the year that furia had “ascendant level strats” is very VERY ironic now

[@pinkievalo]

where did he say that?

[@Evan-xs8ts]

I mean, furia hasn't won a game and lost 2-0 to NRG.

[@nithinsrivatsa4726]

@@Evan-xs8ts The irony is not that NRG is worse than Furia, they're obviously better. The irony is that NRG has ascendant level strats and the only reason they got this far is just the raw talent their players have. This was a championship-worthy team that is struggling to make playoffs against fairly easy matchups.

[@olivierrodrigue1007]

At 29:05, crashies is surely holding his moshpit for his lineup to rubble, to fake with ethan's flashe, because when you zoom on the players utils, you see he doesn't have it anymore (the moshpit). Hopefully we have a replay system soon to see that better

[@abominathan6662]

[@toenyfungus5409]

The 2 parts combined are an entire fucking movie. I love it!! More of this TMV criticize every team that plays shit Also EG should have won Sunset and Ascent by a bigger margin but they lost BOTH pistols on BOTH maps... So NRG got 4 rounds off of pistol rounds alone on Sunset and Ascent and still lost which umm yeah its not looking good

[@risvymahi3118]

eg also lost too many eco's....

[@ayushmansharma1899]

I was highkey waiting for this video...

[@thesilvanalyst6880]

NRG on Lotus genuinely looks like they would be better of with playing Clove. Demon1 can't play Omen (as far as we know) and for some reason they don't want him to play Astra there, so Clove remains, who would actually fit their playstyle, probably better than Brimstone does, and giving Demon1 hyper selfish abilities (heal + self rez) is not a bad idea either, especially when you throw away your blastpacks at the start of the round and need a body to throw into a site as an entry.

[@muhammadnazrin3390]

I'm so thankful, I've never had a lurking dive duelist. They may not entry at times but at least they play with the team

[@thelog6114]

EG and NRG somehow managed to make Lotus look like a CT sided map and I have no fucking idea how they did it.

These are those rare times i feel like using the word i have never used before "NRG is dog shit". A ranked team hai better understanding at gold level that whatever this is. Maybe i am an idiot but as many matchs i have seen till now in pro play this is my standing for now of nrg. Mfs walking every map without anything, comms would be like i am walking cat, walking main walking mid doors and walking out of a spot from masters. And then use util wheneve they feel threatened.

[@Nachicki]

TMV's application to coach NRG is going well

[@iammclovin2483]

The only thing about EG on lotus is after you have had a full game against NRG of doing the opposite of what you expect, next game you try to just do the wrong thing positioning wise to guess what they are gonna do. For instance that round where demon1 gets tagged outside C, if im nature im saying they go A because the legit do the opposite of what’s right 😂

Everyone who was worried about the lack of a proper IGL was justified to be worried. Like imagine what FNS could have made out of these players.

NRG out here looking like the lazy, timid, headless chicken, no util executing - 100T last year. Seeing the similarity in the storylines of the two (off-season hype to knifed by coach (maybe?)), I cannot fathom how it is not an IGLing/Coaching or their ideas not meshing issue.

I click on video, immediately see a KJ stuck arches. You know when it's a good TMV video !

[@deoScrolls]

Marved be like "C is clear boys, TAKE A GO GO GO"

[@ItzClobert]

I think it's become evident that Boostio's IGLing was invaluable along with Potter's coaching with last year's EG. Thrusting Ethan into IGL just makes him not comfortable. Combo that with the fact that Jawg was always there to fill the Raze gap in which NRG severely lack. Sure you can put Vic on Raze but that means Demon1 has to play controller which is forcing Marved onto sentinel. Everything with 2023 EG was setup to setup Demon1.

[@muhammadnazrin3390]

22:02 I would think he would be watching the lineup players back as they get ready, and ult spike on tap after the mollies have been used up. Is there a reason why the Kayo is playing lineups rather than being on site? Unlike KJ mollies where you need to invest some time in a relatively vulnerable state to trigger the mollies so it's better if she is playing safe lineups, Kayo doesn't have that limitation so if he played back site it would be way better than sova playing there. This is thinking hindsight for sure, and not be under stress in an official game, but you would think pros wouldn't have fumbled this so hard...

[@gautamvaze1101]

This is fundamental stuff though, like if I had sova ult and played backsite in ranked I'd get flamed for it. A "superteam" should not be making these kinds of mistakes

TMV do you think NRG need to make a roster change? like their strats r so mid/low tier so its mostly ethans and chets fault but yes the team are all capable and the rest should be making calls as well.

[@ming3706]

Looking back in 2023 EG vs PRX championship, when demon1 was the sole duelist they lost the one match against PRX. Maybe now in NRG, demon1 should stop being the sole duelist. He is only suitable as secondary duelist or other roles. (You can also see him constantly lurk, or goes for solo plays. But he is forced to do the team play which he isn't comfortable with) There is a reason Christine put him off duelist role in the finals. I think he is in the same situation as Yay. They are good aimers. They are not supposed to entry and get traded off. They are supposed to be the one that trade off their duelist, and steam roll from there.

[@Bob-em6kn]

hmmm my guys is cooking something

[@yuvvrajkperson]

Yeah. Eg used d1 and jaw or rarely just one of them. This might be another tenz situation where demon1 will improve with a role change to tenz-omen/kayo with enough time (like a lot of time) or they get him a replacement jaw which would probably be victor. If d1 can only thrive in 2023 eg, and not in nrg, nrg has to do their best to make similar circumstances to make their star player thrive. They have d1 and ethan. Vic can be jaw, crashes can be com and marved will have to be boostio They need to fix roles before they can dream of fixing the calling

[@ming3706]

@@yuvvrajkperson Personally I think Demon1 sensitivity, and his ego just isn't suitable as a duelist. He goes for crazy aggresive plays as a duelist which he usually doesn't do as support role during EG. His sensitivity is also one of the lowest in the pro scene. On the other hand, most good duelist in the tier 1 scene uses high sensitivity in order to flick and check corners. He is a good aimer, which i think a supporting role and kill trader is a significant better role for him.

[@deceptionoce9716]

“Marved playing nuzlock mode” LOL😂

[@ruta_VA]

NRG needs to force demon1 to learn other agents at top level. his agent pool is almost as small as yay’s is. all he can actually play is jett and brimstone (sorta). his raze is terrible and his omen is even worse. if NRG wants any success at all with this roster they need to be flexible. right now all i’m seeing is demon1 struggling on agents he clearly can’t play properly.

[@21daysHs]

[@mikaeloreilosantayana7663]

They already have victor... I feel like demon1 can't play omen or cypher. Look at their lotus comp, instead of marve omen, they have d1 on brim and marve on cypher because none of them can play kj aside from victor. That's why d1 is playing raze on sunset because cypher is really dominant on that map and its hard to play that map without a refreshing smoke because specially on defense. You'll always need to resmoke a choke point
