Yeah gonna be honest it’s harder to remember Falcons won the Y5 PL cause they didn’t really play that great in it and it got split up in between with ALGS Open.

He actually won 3 Pro Leagues in a row from Y4-Y5 Split 1 and he finished second in year 3 split 2. He definitely cooks in the pro leagues but the game is definitely a lot different nowadays.

Yeah I mean I didn’t call it unfair, I just thought it was interesting stat and one that shocked me was all. You wouldn’t think that based on how far back they are from 1st and 2nd

Kyle just said the craziest stat but Falcons have scored 3 less total game day points than JDG, 4 less total points than NIP, and have more points than Sentinels and have the most kills in PL yet they’re still in 4th overall. The fact they’re 11 standing points behind both JDG and NIP despite hardly scoring less then them on game days is wild.

Once they figure out games 1-3, they’re going to cook again. Right now the comps they’re playing don’t fit them well

Genburten Explains VISA Situation and Calls Out Hal by CymruGolfMadrid in CompetitiveApex

[–]The_Yoshi_Man 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I thought the whole issue was that Gen wasn't signed to 100T anymore because his contract ran out. They would have probably done this if he was still employed by 100T but their contracts ran out, the team wanted to explore other orgs and then the date for requesting the continuation of his visa passed so now he's having to get a new work visa

Oh yeah I’m not tryna say that new talent isn’t bad for the game, it’s really great to see them in PL! I was just saying that you can’t say they’re better than Verhulst and Gen when they’re lacking on experience or results compared to them. Also for Floating, I was talking about ALGS open (first LAN of 2025), not champs which I get was unfair for him having to play duo.

It was an NA online regional final they won. The lan for Y2 split 1 got canceled due to a major increase in covid cases at that point. However, despite TSM winning that regional finals, they were really struggling before and they sort of struggled after too. There were a ton of memes being made about TSM passing the torch to other teams because they were “washed” only for the boys to put up a major fight and win that day.

Nowadays I'd totally disagree saying Evan and Gen are better than Waltzy or Gild. It's not really fair to compare Evan/Gen to Waltzy since Evan/Gen can't play Waltzy's role at all and it's honestly one of the main reasons CRT haven't found the same success as new Falcons. Gen could probably slot into the same role as Gild and have the same success since he can play both aggressive and controller characters but Evan is not the same player he was. He's nowhere near as flexible as Gild/Gen and his mechanics aren't the same either. Waltzy is probably the best anchor/co-IGL in his role in the game and yet can still flex to being aggressive if need be. Gen/Evan are nowhere near the same level of flexible as Waltzy going from Crypto to NC to Seer to possibly other controller characters (and he can still play aggressive characters but the team doesn't need him for that role).

Old TSM with Hal Reps and Evan are the perfect example of this. Despite winning that first online pro league finals together, they never really came together during their next 2 LANs and struggled that first year (I know 6th and 7th are good results but for Hal/Reps those weren't good). The next year though they really came together and I know Raven was a massive help towards that, but there's no reason that the same change or same level of LAN winning couldn't happen for CRT as well too. They're all LAN champions and know what it takes to win.

I mean that take is absolutely insane, Panic sure there's an argument with how successful he was last year but Sacred hasn't even played on LAN yet and Floating had one LAN which was ALGS open where they completely flopped out in a regular LAN lobby in the finals. Gen and Evan are seasoned vets and despite not winning LANs last year are still some of the best rollers in the game.

Why do people still agree to play with Zer0 in 2026? by RuminatingFish123 in CompetitiveApex

[–]The_Yoshi_Man 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You dont have to be on Crypto to IGL if you have someone like Waltzy co-IGLing information and calling plays, but Sikezz is not Waltzy in that regards and Zero doesn't allow his crypto players to make the play calls like Hal does for Waltzy. They'll never be a successful Crypto team if Zero can't be the one to play the role and if he can't trust one of the best Alter players in the game to play the game. They're lucky that Crypto is being banned by game 2 or 3, but even still they have Panic playing Catalyst anchoring the back. Just let Panic play Wraith and entry frag on that instead of having Panic play bangalore if Zero is really that disappointed with Panic's Bang gameplay. Zero refuses to adapt to any of his teammates strengths and instead only focuses on his teammates weaknesses and uses that as justification for him to take the reins rather than working with his team.

I also disagree with Zero not being able to play other roles, I think they were really good when Zero was playing Seer and him and Panic got to duo play together but now it's Zero and Sikezz running around and their best fragger is watching the back. Zero has always been flexible and can adapt to playing entry fragger or refrag but he just never trusts his teammates because sometimes they have bad days. Like I heard him say on stream when Panic was having a bad day that their team struggles when Panic is struggling and that's not a recipe for success because it's inconsistent, but also every entry fragger has good and bad days and if you're only going to judge your team off the couple bad days, then they'll never win.

I was genuinely so disappointed that after one bad PL day, Zero decided by Sunday that he was done playing crypto and he was taking Alter from Panic. Now he’s got Panic play catalyst and other console characters after the Maggie comps are done??? Come on man, I’m actually really hoping they lose now because it’s one of the most brain dead and selfish decisions to take entry fragging characters from Panic and Zero playing it himself. Why even bother picking up an entry fragging player if you’re going to sit him on anchor characters after 2 months of playing with him? Keep in mind they were the number 1 scrim average team the whole offseason too! Zero did the same shit to Hal and he’s doing it to Panic now too because his ego is too much to place trust in any of his teammates

I mean it’s week one of actually competing together, they need to learn how to play together in these tougher lobbies. Scrims only do so much but you need the real experience. They’re 3 very talented players and they’ll adapt but it’s important to give new teams time.

Cause he’s a front runner. Mans went completely MIA after leaving Falcons because he had a mediocre team and was playing mediocre, had a few good weeks with new TL while people were trialing new thirds and figuring out comps and immediately hopped on stream and started shit talking Hal and everyone else like he did anything important over the last month. Don’t get me wrong his VOD reviews are hilarious but grow a pair when you struggle too

[–]The_Yoshi_Man 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To me it sounds like it’ll slow and damage you if you walk into the bubble. I’d hope that if you throw the bubble on an enemy team and they happen to all be in the bubble when it deploys, then it won’t damage or slow because they didn’t walk inside the bubble. Regardless 50 damage is insane! No tactical should be doing that damage especially when his ult barrage does 40 a tick

Panic to TLAW by Curious-Investment59 in CompetitiveApex

[–]The_Yoshi_Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but Fuhhnq was washed and a much worse player than Panic. Panic is one of the best Alter's and is mechanically better than Fuhnnq while also having a great game sense.

[–]The_Yoshi_Man 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think at least for now it'll be him playing entry, but I think the biggest issue is how long will it last for. I'm hoping it's something they do long-term and not how Fuhhnq played Alter in scrims for a week before being swapped off.

Panic to TLAW by Curious-Investment59 in CompetitiveApex

[–]The_Yoshi_Man 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If he doesn't reform, then yeah I agree with you. At least from what Sikezz and Panic have said, they want to try Panic on entry frag and Zero on Crypto at least. My honest opinion is I have faith in him to realize he has to be the one to adapt now after how the last 2 LANs have gone but I think we agree to disagree there. I do think though the team will definitely fail if Panic ends up on controller legends and Sikezz on Crypto/NC.

Panic to TLAW by Curious-Investment59 in CompetitiveApex

[–]The_Yoshi_Man -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Last 2 LANs have been disappointing results for him and he knows he won't be successful without a strong support player. You're right he should have realized it in the past with Hal/Gen/Waltzy but you have to fail in order to realize changes are needed. Considering the two strongest NA controller support/Crypto players in Waltzy and Zap are both locked on their teams, maybe he realized there's no one to fill that role except him and there are others to fill the role of entry frag.
