Basically what the title says. Just because they lost 1 best of 5 all year does not take away from how extremely good they are. Not to mention they lost the only tournament they played that isn’t double elim. Who knows what would happen if it was so I won’t go there.
This isn’t like g2 either where they got stomped. JDG was moments away from winning game 3 and a kanavi int or two away from winning game 4. I don’t mean to make excuses. I mean that they were just definitely not outclassed and if you play that series out 10 times, they win some of those. We haven’t seen a team he so dominant for so long, and do it in the fashion and dominance they did.
Ruler has been the best performing player in the world this year and this lose doesn’t negate the rest of the year. Jdg has been the best performing team the whole year and this lose doesn’t negate the rest of the year either.
FPX vs G2 was closer than the score suggests
Assuming the same roster of players:
T1 2015
JDG 2023
G2 2019/2020
RNG 2018
DWG 2020
Game 1 of fpx g2 was closeish. Rest of the games were stomps no?
