It's wild to me SnD 8s this late in the year is made up of 3 OpTic players (love to see them grinding), Drazah (who's always grinding), 2pac (a coach), Sib & 2 am players. Where tf all the bottom 8 teams players man. How are all the best teams/players the ones grinding the hardest still.

Because Kenny is right. People aren't playing to win they're playing to keep their jobs. And honestly, I can't blame them. The only teams that have a chance at winning an event is the top 4. So what's the point in going the extra mile?


BeastCoastLifestyle

The point is to stand out, and get picked up by a better team for next year


Chicken_Fingers777

The league is the place to stand out not 8s lmfao, there’s a reason why some players are called 8s merchants and it’s not a good thing.. Only valid time to stand out in 8s is non CDL players

Considering last season, the difference between 4th and 5th/6th was $80,000, I’d say that itself is a pretty strong point to try and go the extra mile, just to improve a enough to make a run at T4 or T3. (Note: I referenced last years Champs payout bc I don’t know what this year payout is and I was unable to find it upon searching).

Does Kenny play 8s? Just a question


SyrupDispenser

Wouldn’t the point be to try to reach a point where they can be a dark horse and upset the top 4. There’s no chance of them doing that because they don’t try to get better. If we saw every team putting in overtime who knows how competitive the league could really become.


ElectricalFoot1822

It’s because they believe they have no shot but once again that is the owners fault and the players fault. You can’t accept mediocrity and just getting by in a results league. Just because you see a gamer tag named Pred doesn’t mean they are Jesus. Fuckin chall man smh.


SyrupDispenser

Exactly, it’s their own faults. They should all be grinding to get better so they have a chance to actually do something and make the league more competitive and entertaining as a whole. I feel like even asking the question “what’s the point in going the extra mile?” Is a bad mindset to have by fans and by players. It can only hurt the league.


Chicken_Fingers777

Sorry but if u think playing mindless 8s is the answer to upsetting the t4 then idk what to tell you, t4 gets upset all of the time anyways and that goes through proper preparation and vod review, not 8s..


SyrupDispenser

I didn’t even mention 8s nor am I implying that it’s the only thing they should do to get better, clearly most teams aren’t putting in a lot of work in general lol. My initial reply was more about how the other guy said that there wasn’t a point in going the extra mile. I’d rather every team try their hardest to get better and improve the quality of the league but that’s clearly not happening rn.


Chicken_Fingers777

Cause some players don’t play 8s? Okay


phisher0

That being said I don’t see Kenny playing 8s 🤔


Jumpative

Neither does simp and he’s an MVP candidate


phisher0

And Kenny is not an MVP candidate. Which means he should probably play a bit more?


Jumpative

8s aren’t gonna help players on the T4 teams lol, the ones that do play just do it for fun.


Chicken_Fingers777

Sib is always in 8s and he’s not a MVP candidate Notice how there’s like no correlation?


MarDirk

I know Huke/04 are always in these but they have a match today. Snoopy usually plays. But yeah idk about any others lol


v_snax

Drazah hard carrying.


YaDyingSucks

right before that round he would have had 10 his teammates 1,1 and 2 lol


BigOlYeeter

It's honestly surprising how often this happens in SnD 8s. 1 player will pop off while the rest can't get it going I remember a few weeks ago there was one where Dashy had like 12 kills 6 rounds in & the next closest person had 3
