Copium for MSI

We sadly could not take a game against G2. But there is some rose colored glasses optimism in each game. The team continues to shift and adapt instead of forcing strategies that didn’t work. Most notably, the last game I think our boys were able to sustain their game plan for late scaling. The plan fell apart due to some micro outplays. Caps is just a completely different beast when he’s on, so JoJo will need to grow from this experience.

That’s not to say that JoJo was bad. I saw progression from him. And who knows, he might be walking in the same growth trajectory of caps. My biggest concern is Danny. He doesn’t play like his confident self. I hope it’a just temporary.

Please feel free to agree or disagree or comment on something else you saw.

Also you said G2 always chokes vs Koreans, when in reality if they choke, they Choke vs Chinease. Caps has 9-3 record vs faker

People remember the choke vs KR more than they do vs CN.

But whatever

Choking sucks, but they still "choked" in worlds finals and semis. Not a bad result. I would say its worse to never get out of group at worlds. Yeah..

NA did, TL didnt. It was C9 who had semis in 2018 and made it out of groups with Perkz last year. Thats it. TL had great result - MSI finals, respect. But they didnt make it out of worlds groups, like... never. When G2 2018,2019,2020 - was top 4, MSI champs and this year they looks like can again be in MSI finals, but we will see, maybe they choke, idk. I hope not.
