YamatoCannonGUEST
And then, of course, Emkoi, you know, Elioia, as a LEC player, is one of the greatest in, like, he's definitely, like, a top 10 player, but the main thing that was the argument against him always that takes him out of the top 10 because it's just the usual suspects that have been in internationals and done the damage at internationals is exactly that.
YamatoCannonGUEST
Ilya's international performances, besides the first MSI and the first Worlds that they played at Mad Lions, Mkoy has always been a big disappointment, right? Like, we talk about disappointments, they have dropped out of play-ins, I don't know how many times at this
Daniel GonzalesHOST
point.
YamatoCannonGUEST
It's crazy how many times they dropped out of play-ins.
NymaeraHOST
Yeah, I mean, you were talking about the Asian teams, but I think obviously the one which probably gets referenced the most is NRG in 2023 outside of the Asian teams.
NymaeraHOST
Because even though NRG deserved to beat G2 in the way that they qualified through to 2023 knockouts, NRG beat Team Liquid, so regional opponent, Mad Lions, and then G2.
ThorinHOST
Bad Lions in this era.
NymaeraHOST
And then they beat G2 in the qualifying best of three.
NymaeraHOST
It's the
ThorinHOST
same as now.
ThorinHOST
So the key point here is you got to get two of your wins against Team Liquid and Mad Lions.
ThorinHOST
That is absurd.
ThorinGUEST
But what happened is, sadly, because they believed what he said, like some political noob, he just played them, right, and used this as a way to get more leverage through the Louvre Agreement for both the Charlottes and the Louvre Hogs, right? And he obviously went the other way.
ThorinGUEST
I'm almost convinced that when the one team that was good, the one good team, remember in Flashpoint, was Mad Lions, and Bobski was the star player I think he signed him because it's like that's a smart move by the way what you're doing there is going hey Bobski maybe you're getting my team so you leave and then he's taking their best player I'm almost certain like essentially to add to what you're saying I don't believe they did that because they thought he was the next shit hot player he was a good player I don't think they really thought he should play next to the Vites in the future I think they did it cynical like you're saying they basically destroyed other teams that were their rivals yeah
Harry RussellGUEST
Yeah, dude.
Harry RussellGUEST
I mean, they, they, they feel so consistent in this though.
YamatoCannonHOST
Whether it's the TL1 in the Caitlyn game when we are so far ahead in game four and we just don't close out.
YamatoCannonHOST
Or even the Lions series where we just throw massive gold leads.
YamatoCannonHOST
And, um, now when it comes to the Casey series, it's like the, the, the conversation is always like this, this series should have been a four zero.
YamatoCannonHOST
But, uh, uh, I think at this point it's just something that is built in.
1 HR 13 MINS LATER
KeireGUEST
Is this an all-time really good-looking Caps year? I don't think so.
KeireGUEST
I think Caps was at his best at first stand, and I think it's been a slow degradation since then.
KeireGUEST
There was a little up-peak at MSI, followed by an individual collapse... against Lions, right? The other piece for me is Schumond.
KeireGUEST
When I seen Schumond at first stand, it was that like ability to just, he was able to take control of the map, the entire map and run it from like five minutes to 15 minutes and ragdoll the best players in the world on that, right? I haven't seen that Schumond basically like all summer and that scares me because that's the Schumond I want to see against D+.
Peter DunHOST
no? I mean, did anyone expect anything from Emcoi? But getting eliminated by like...
NymaeraHOST
Oh, and actually, there's one we've forgotten as well, which was Mad Lions getting eliminated in play-ins.
Peter DunHOST
Okay, so context.
Peter DunHOST
We were the fourth seed from EU.
Peter DunHOST
Yeah.
Peter DunHOST
I have realized we can just
NymaeraHOST
fill in an entire segment just with Mad Lions and Fnatic, actually.
NymaeraHOST
Yeah, of course.
Thomas Si-HassenHOST
Like in this format, everybody can beat anyone.
KeireHOST
And by the way, we've also seen fucking Lions take HLE, MSI champions, to five games and they almost sniped one of those games that they lost.
KeireHOST
So let's not just pretend that there's bloody three wins running around in the fucking groups when there really isn't.
KeireHOST
I can't agree.
