Loading...Can't seem to reply to your comments @Franky. But yeah, I dont see any issue with criticism of the team or the players. I simply dont understand any alternative, what we congratulate them on awful performances? Looking at LoL as the most recent, what should we ignore Razork having a shocker of a playoffs, humanoid getting gapped by every mid bar against TH, getting killed walking blindly through the jgl, getting caught on the split push as he does every year. the team should be rightfully judged on their performances, as what does blind optimism do for the team, it surely doesnt affect performances either way, you think opponent fans/commentators/previous pros aren't going to call them out regardless? We should expect the best from our veterans, rookies deserve leeway, but these players are getting paid well to represent, and if they can't accept fair criticism then they're in the wrong profession. If I do a terrible job at work, guess what happens! I don't accept personal attacks, but i haven't seen any of that personally. But rightfully our players got lots of scrutiny as they played quite frankly pathetically, only Oscar and upset really showed any level of consistency. Miky had some good games, but he also lost a few. On the other games, then there is a lot of question on fnatic management, IE Csgo, Valorant etc. but no point going on them in a long text as well

Loading...Just seems virtue signalling. We dont have as many fans as we used to, because we constantly fail. That isn't a fan problem, and we have voices in the stadiums, we always have. But none of that fixes the quality of our performances, whether its Csgo, Val, lol, apex etc. The realistic fact is fnatic is doing pretty awfully across all sports, so yeah this isn't a "supporter" issues, its an org issue.

Loading...They need something. Gaax sucked ass on draft in fearless. We clearly need more voices in the room, in the hope that improves our quality. Plus the team has shockingly bad macro, so the teams can just constantly talk about huma macro etc, but it means nothing if it doesnt translate to stage

Loading...I mean we had a pretty terrible start, and our starts were pretty awful. Arguably it can't get much worse, so hopefully we do better in the next tournament
