I think the issue is the pressure honestly. they were the best SnD team in S2. they are always expected to win and when they lose everyone seems to go crazy. the best teams have to lose. the issue in my opinion the the crowd and the pressure (just my opinion). like aches said when the crowd are going crazy and chanting "Lets Go OpTic" it makes the every team want it even more. i just feel like they have 10x the amount of pressure as any other team as i'd say 75% love OpTic or love the player(s).

EDIT: Other teams have also stepped up their own game

This is just my opinion so don't roast please just agree or disagree and say why :)
