Even if shox goes back to how he played in 2016, the individual skill is soo low on this team. This isn't just a small downgrade in terms of skill (from the old g2 lineup) and a small upgrade in terms of tactics. It's a gigantic downupgrade in terms of skill. Apex and NBK are good players and honestly played better than Shox for a long period of time (though ofc shox IGL'ing to be fair). If the G2 management had access to the statistical models and data I have, there would be 0% chance they would have gone with the linup. In my opinion best case for the G2 lineup is around #10 in the world. But there is no guarantee they even become a top 15 or for that matter top 20 team. They heavily need to outperform the sum of the parts when it comes to tactics and strategy. Thorin: "this lineup has the pieces to be one of the best in the world" - classic thorin. | ||

It looks like G2 with shox and ScreaM to me. If kennyS and shox find their form, i have no doubt that they will give hard time to the any team they meet. French players are so salty in post-shuffles lol. | ||

I dont know... It looks like G2 with shox and ScreaM to me. If kennyS and shox find their form, i have no doubt that they will give hard time to the any team they meet. Definitely some similarities. However, I also don't think the average performance of the G2 lineup was that great. They had a good period during summer 2016, but average throughout 2016 wasn't top 5. During the summer I think all of the players just heavily outperformed. Shox and scream were playing at a world class level and rpk was pretty good as well. But generally speaking I think there are just a lot more pretty good teams in the top 20 right now with players who have had average performances better than the core of these g2 players. | ||
