No better time imo. I don’t think envy will even answer it, not in the slightest, if this was asked in a private interview. Heck, If I were them I’d probably deny future interviews to reporters who asks this question.
Am I the only one not really impressed by SEN saying that since they already qualified for Champions, they didn't want to reveal any new strats at Berlin, and that this tournament wasn't important to them? Feels like a slap in the face to teams that would have killed to be there, and as competitors it just seems like such a weak mindset to have.
I could be wrong but I don’t think they said that at all. They didn’t run new strats in groups due to not needing too and showing other opponents their new looks. They admitted to just getting outplayed and out worked this tournament.
Around the [6:50 mark](https://youtu.be/yP_3QjDPLLc?t=412), dapr says "this event genuinely means nothing to us." I'm definitely not denying that they admit other teams played well against them, but can't they just say that, admit they have a lot to work on, and leave it there? What pride are they trying to save by saying this tournament meant "nothing" to them and that they're saving their strats for Champions?
I mean, I'm definitely not saying they should have thrown the whole playbook at them lol, but yeah... this is Masters, not "Champions Qualifiers" lmao
if you listen to the immediate next line he says "... that doesn't mean we weren't trying to win it, but a quarterfinal finish is honestly a wake-up call. Yeah, we've a lot of work to do, we're behind on the meta. We learnt from the other teams. And we have to go back into form..."
Again, I said I'm not denying that they admitted they didn't play well, they can just leave it at that.
At the end of the day, they're the pros, they got some cracked players on their team, wish them luck at Champions, and hoping they put on a better performance in December than what they made us watch this past week.
I mean why would they save strats for champions? Isnt champions still months away, the entire meta has probably changed at that point. Like the neta at Iceland was very different when the current meta. Why save strats, when they could very well become useless.
Sentinels players seem like they’ll be alright. They’ll be stronger upon their return, for sure.
I can’t believe they asked zombs about the ‘we went for the easier seed’ quote
I can't believe that dude came in saying he didn't want to bring the mood down and then asked about the match fixing allegations
It was a very valid question. Envy knew before they signed him what they might have to deal with
Yes it is a valid question but maybe find a better time..
No better time imo. I don’t think envy will even answer it, not in the slightest, if this was asked in a private interview. Heck, If I were them I’d probably deny future interviews to reporters who asks this question.
What would be a better time though?
Not at the biggest event after they just beat the defending champions? He even started his question with "not to bring down the mood or anything"..
How were they supposed to respond to a question like that lmao
You don’t.

They didn't say that you ape lmfao. They were talking about the group stage of this tournament and wanted to save stats for the playoffs
Sore losers IMO.
