LOLcow of the Week: NRG feat. Me

I know Ardiis is somewhere having a laugh.

[@sonusmeister2325]

Thank you NRG, at least PRX survived from being a lolcow.

[@AUG_Glow]

They lost to a good team, and they didn’t get washed out it’s fine

[@Browniev2]

@@AUG_Glow LEV are also a good team tho, PRX just didn't lose by a ton like NRG did.

[@AUG_Glow]

@@Browniev2 yeah that’s what I said, thanks for repeating it

[@Browniev2]

@@AUG_Glow oh my bad. I thought you meant that LEV weren't a good team, and I was about to ? the fuck out of you, LMAO. Reading comprehension issue on my end, my bad.

I mean it's Team Secret: The team that plays boring shit, gets wins against bad teams, randomly upset good teams, then choke the crucial games

Diamond1 in raze is a crime

[@phinks5368]

Literally had and argument with someone trying to tell me how his raze was better than zekkens last week. All I said was one blowout game with 15 total rounds on raze doesn't prove you can hang with the best. Never have I felt so validated in my life. Thank you, lev and demon1, for proving my point🥹🥹🤧🤧🥹

[@xpercade8926]

@@phinks5368 arguing demon1 raze is better than zekken raze is INSANE. zekken raze is literally one of the best in the world and demon1's util wasn't good even last week. whoever was arguing against you on that was braindead LMAO

[@erenyeygerkenny]

Even though zekken and aspas are probably the best duelist in the world and nrg was good on bind in the old team this new team is nothing like fns som they actually qualified for something but this no just no

[@imagination0000]

​@@erenyeygerkenny duelist for sure but raze Standing is - 1.Jinggg 2.zekken 3.aspas

[@Amin-jr7ue]

all his raze kills, or atleast most of em were due to his aim not util usage lol

[@angel02sanchez]

What does this mean for C9 legacy? No, but fr C9 has a good chance of going 6-0 and winning this group, which is crazy to think about.

[@Tenz2346g]

100t may be able to beat c9

[@sanud8548]

the fact that victor has international experience on raze for multiple years and demon1 shows he really capable on brimstone during EG's runs at tokyo and champs???

[@JournalRahmen]

"Demon1" was not a "Victor" but a loser as his team "Crashies" and burned, as Ethan "Chet"ed out the crash as it was "Marved"lous how bad the wreckage was.

[@imagination0000]

It was like a blank "aspas" in their mind that they Weren't the "kingg" of the war. The "c0m" was the only thing they lacked. As If they were a "tex" t behind a win. They felt like they were "mazinio". Aspas = quotation mark (Portuguese), in this text this means they had no idea to do anything Mazinio = small, (Lithuanian )

[@xanman2003]

I’m really interested to hear some interviews with the players/Chet to hear what the hell went wrong from their perspective because this should NOT be happening. LEV is looking like what we thought they’d be at the start of the year but to get 8 rounds mean’s something went seriously wrong in their prep/form

[@gpfhantom1890]

They put Demon1 on Raze both maps, that's what went wrong. Bro dropped 13 kills across both maps.

[@xanman2003]

@@gpfhantom1890 Yes, but frankly, this is a whole team of shooters. If Demon1 is having a bad game, yes that doesn't bode well for the team but there is not a player on the roster that isn't capable of heavy fragging. I think the problem has to go beyond that to see a result like this

[@gpfhantom1890]

@@xanman2003 Role issues can have a big factor for a team winning or losing. We saw this last year with SEN, it's the same thing with NRG. SEN had all shooters last year and they just couldn't do it because the players weren't comfortable in their roles. Had they swapped Victor into Raze with Demon1 being on smokes, that would have worked out a lot better. But yeah, there are also definitely some other issues besides that

[@armandf.s4036]

NRG can do what other teams did when they have a flex/raze player and a jett player who can't play raze and just rotate them. Hell, NRG can try the lotus T1 comp with demon1 playing chamber and vic going to raze. They shouldve put demon1 on smokes man what is this decision. I know that teams want duelists to play both raze and jett but some players just can't do that man. Zekken and aspas are S tier duelists because they can play both well and are somewhat consistent (zekken is in his 1st year of fully playing duelist while aspas is in his third year so give zekken some time) and demon1 has low sens, which is not good for a raze player who needs to swing his crosshair across the screen to clear angles and be mobile and agile (what's happening to yay rn, what happened to ardiis and cryo last year)

[@xanman2003]

@@armandf.s4036 yeah, I couldn’t watch the match live but when u looked back at the roles for bind I was unimpressed

I watched that game and they had nothing for LEV. NRG just looked... Lost. We need the days of NRG series soon if they gonna continue like THIS.

@@Cyclic727 One thing I will say about the optic core is that they have an insane work ethic and are definitely going to be practicing intensely after the loss. I don think it will be enough time tho

"And then I kid you not doc, I actually sat there and watched the entirely of the NRG vs LEV vod..."

[@philipdawson7800]

Not to say NRG are in danger of missing the playoffs, but considering C9 are 3-0 & their toughest opponent left is 100T & Sentinels are, well, Sentinels, this loss might hurt them a lot come playoff time. They'll likely have to play that 2-3 matchup that is single-elim & regardless how good your ceiling is, I'd never want to find myself in one of these if I could. Also, Demon1 has to be banned from ever playing Raze again. He just sucks on Raze.

[@philipdawson7800]

Then again, Sentinels just lost to EG, so...

Call me a glazer (I'm indeed a sen fan), but sen on their off-day pulled a 17-19 and 13-11 with aspas going some ranked level carry. And the record between the two is still 1-1. But yeah, they are in a crazy form

[@xpercade8926]

@@b0b2107 yeah aspas went nuclear against sen that game and he wasn't even that crazy in this NRG series and they still stomped the fuck out of us. that was a full blown team diff

[@warrior1563]

@@b0b2107 to be fair the Lev that beat sentinels was on the verge of imploding. Aspas already had beef with Lev (as an org) and if he put up those numbers just to lose I think the roster would be dead, especially considering that the players didn’t have much chemistry in the first place.
