as an OG C9 fan, i can totally see why NRG came out with the W. they remind me a lot of the OG squad of balls, meteos, hai, sneaky and lemonation. they are more than just teammates, they are friends and their chemistry allows them to unlock a level of play through communication and synergy some teams just dont have. the positivity and resilience these guys have to helps to stay focused and tilt-proof in these best of 5 series. happy for them and im looking forward to their continued success!

[@rac8153]

The series was a pure clownfiesta and the team with the highest amount of mistakes lost. Its insane to see how many time the caster repeated "he missed everything" or "he missed his combo" during the series, there wasnt any real synergy during the games, just "pros" getting caught and missing skillshot. Emenes and Contractz especially were really awful at hitting skillshots

@@R3alSt3al " Ignar played for KT Rolster'" Using KT S6 for S12 Ignar, is like talking about worlds champion SKT S3 for TL Piglet. There is a reason why he couldnt get an offer in a major region anymore and collect checks in LCS... The 3 NA are academy level, thats why its an academy group. They were boucing between academy and low tier LCS teams for years before CLG left LCS and NRG sign a budget roster. Dont be a blind bronze kidfan, these players would still be in academy if the region wasnt dead with the top orgs, cash and most viewers leaving the scene. With the absence of th big deep pocket, no import wants to come to play in NA and there are only academy level players and washed up retired import left. The sooner fans like you open their eyes and realize this is the weakest winner and year ever in the history of LCS (even worse than 0-6 TSM or last year 0-9 and 3-15), the easier will be the wake up slap at worlds.

[@rac8153]

@@kakostoufiotis7743 "NRG will probably choke judging by the regions history in worlds " They dont "choke", they face different kind of competition. When you play in NA, you can flash smite crab and get away with it, or try to take mid tower 1V3 while your team is busy killing dragon and get away with it. Against any non garbage team, you proceed to lose the game with these kind of bronze plays. You could literally field the last place LCK roster in LCS and they will look like god for the entire split until they face real competition. "but you cant compare Palafox/Dokhla to Damonte/Solo" Yes, you can. Damonte and Solo got embarassed while practicing against far better competition regionally when Bjergsen/Jensen/PoE/Ssumday/Impact/etc were still active and not completely washed up. Palafox played against APA and Emenes, both wouldnt even get a LCK academy try out. Dhokla played against Fudge, the same wildcard top who looked like a paraolympic playmobil at worlds and MSI for a combined 7 times.

There's no one decent in mid except Palafox and he's far from worlds level. But yeah Zven is clearly overstaying his welcome, i blame the teams tho, i don't blame him, anybody in his boots would have taken paycheck after paycheck like he did. It's the org's fault for having no eyetest or weird bias or long contract. Zven and Emenes clearly lost that final on their own.
