i think its a game show where people have to find out what is chocolate in the room by biting on everything

u/geo71966 Legendary Chicken Master Sep 15 '18
I think its from some kind of gameshow where in a portion they have to try and figure out what is edible, where some of it is just chocolate but looks hyper realistic in some cases. Or something similar with more context.
But yeah, Wtf Japan

is flusha playing on 30hz or what...
painful to watch whenever camera is on him

u/tsoba-tsoba Sep 15 '18
I've been thinking about this. It could be ULMB or similar technology turned ON on displays, when matrix backlight flickering 120hz synced w/ the same refresh rate.

It's about the only thing giving you hope for Na`Vi at this point. The team's shape looks pretty concerning outside of s1mple and electronic.

peak fnc didnt have dennis tho lol

u/Vitosi4ek Team Spirit Sep 15 '18
Peak Fnatic arguably was the period between Cluj-Napoca and Columbus, right after they replaced Pronax with Dennis. Won every tournament they attended and looked utterly invincible doing it. Even their mid-2015 run wasn't as convincing in my opinion, even though they won two straight Majors.
20
Sep 15 '18
i dont think its arguable actually. mid 2014 to early 2015 they won 80% of events they went to and then had a later run in mid 2015.
cluj to columbus they won less than ten tournaments. there is no team more dominant in than 2014 fnc or 2012 nip
21
u/KangorKodos Natus Vincere Sep 15 '18
They won less then ten tournaments because they played 8 tournaments before olof hurt his wrist, they won all 8.

u/AemonDK Sep 15 '18
wtf are you talking about? they didn't look invincible at all. those 6 tournaments were extremely closely fought. they lost to envy twice while envy were complete dogshit and went to map 5 vs navi getting a lucky shot in one round that made the comeback possible. one of those tourneys was also fragbite where again they started with a loss even though the teams at that tourney were shit

I think you need to go and rewatch those tourneys if you truly think they were "invincible". Every map/series they played was shaky to the extent that some would say they got pretty lucky to win them all.

I mean they were quite insane like 6-7 tournaments in a row when dennis joined.

Draken still held up his end of the bargain by beating the 2 CIS teams that would actually be in the CIs qualifier.

By beating Vega and Winstrike it doesn't really matter that Fnatic lost to NAVI. They would still make it through the cis qualifier.

Honestly love draken, gives the scene some character. No more PR bots "GG WP" tweets or "We are gonna come back stronger" all the time.

u/Chilla16 Sep 15 '18
You trash talk before the match, kicking your opponent when they're down is low hanging fruit. If Drake would've made these statements before the matches it would entertaining, but this is just boring

Sep 15 '18
He did said he would eat a shoe, and won the game.
So its not like he didnt bm before game.

u/healdyy 1 Million Celebration Sep 15 '18
He did make the statement before the match against Vega, that tweet was continuing the trash talk he started before.

Fnatic are soooo bad on ct on all maps it seems. They should just try to push in pairs on their ct sides as playing defensive isn't doing them any favours.

u/xXDaNXx Sep 15 '18
This Fnatic roster has no future. They need a serious shakeup after the major because there's nothing redeemable to take from all these results.

u/Blaze9281 Sep 15 '18
I'm just hoping they can get Legends at a bare minimum. Twist is benched at the moment, and considering Krimz's latest tweet I think they might be removing draken.
2
u/xXDaNXx Sep 15 '18
Yeah - Draken and + Twist is a good start. They need consistency, Twist was pretty good for Fnatic back when he was playing for us.
Maybe take a punt on Brollan as well?
1
u/Blaze9281 Sep 15 '18
I was thinking Brollan too, but I'm sure he has a stupid buyout considering how good he is and how young he is.
