2011-05-12 18:44

You don't get it, do you? It sucks, cuz now there are lower chances for beginners to play this cup, next, imo, will be semi-elite teams etc, besides fnatic is sponsored by MSi, why do they play this cup anyways... :/

2011-05-12 20:40

sucks? there's still 26 teams to go..

2011-05-12 17:12

Give me 1 good reason why they should be when they've beaten fnatics asses pretty badly twice.

Oh they have beaten fnatics asses badly ?? Ohh have they?? like 16-0 16-5 rite?? they have beaten them in group stages well good for them. Who won the IEM EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP at the start of the year??? Is winning group stage matches more important then winning a HUGE tournament? Well sorry to say But SK has achieved nothing in last 2-3 years and they never will , they keep changing their lineup every 5-6 months, no stability.M so sure if they lose the next 2-3 tournaments they will kick Dennis even if he performs better then the rest of his mates, Y because player names are bigger then performers for them. They had a Solid lineup with Moddii but then they kicked him Then they kick walle They had a chance to have Gux but NO Then they kick allen They get Dennis( a surprise for some) Now if they lose some tournaments , he is OUT and they will put all the blame on him Then they will get someone else, Break some stable team say LIONS or RAGE and then in future they will kick him as well All they know is to break lineups and win SHIT

you do know that teams is more than players? they're people who needs to get along and fnatic won the first event then what? sk have been close pretty many times and that's good for a new lineup imo, we have to wait and see how good they will be when they're playing flawless together

2011-05-13 18:41

They won an event in 2010 though, which is about as much as this Fnatic lineup will probably accomplish. IEM Euro didn't mean anything, fnatic is far worse than SK is now, that's been clear already.

2011-05-13 19:43

fnatic won the tournament but SK forever will beat fnatic with the recent lineups, and _HUGE!!!!!_ as u make the Kiev tournament sound wasnt nearly as big as Hannover.

2011-05-16 13:28

why would any1 be afraid of fnatic? they cant do arm to any1, except low teams..

Can you stop writing "rite" please. It hurts my eyes >.<

2011-05-12 18:29

good for me? how's that good for me? :s yes fnatic won IEM europe, they played very well and surprised the other teams, but now, they cant do shit vs fx, sk, mtw and navi. im not sure if they can beat lions and rage, much less the top teams.. and yes, sk has armed top teams, they beated mtw, they tied vs navi in the group stage of the world championship, they beated lions, fnatic, rage etc etc etc. so no, fnatic cant do shit vs them! they were raped twice, period!

2011-05-12 18:55

Forget about SK and fnatic. RAGE is the team to look out for in the future. :D

2011-05-15 14:58

do you remember fnatic's performance in iem world?? it was a disaster, now stfu

a2g fuck yeah

2011-05-12 23:04

I think it just was a sudden appearance for Fnatic to win IEM europen, they can not match up with MTW FX SK & NAVI. maybe just a litter higher than LIONS & rage. The coming dreamhacker will tell us the outcome.
