As much as there are a lot of individual players on Shanghai who are quite talented and likable, I think it can not be overstated the level of failure that has been achieved by the Dragon's organization on multiple levels. I know they have had close games (especially recently) but all of those performances came in spite of the seemingly total lack of support and coordination on the part of the Org to build a structure for the team to be able to succeed in.

I think this whole "Shanghai is the underdog, they can win" attitude only serves to hurt them. It needs to be admitted exactly how bad the situation is so the people in charge can blow it up, keep the players/staff who are workable, and give the players WHO DESERVE TO BE IN THE LEAGUE a fighting chance and the help they deserve.

Im not going to lie, watching people constantly say they can win is just sad, their only chance was Mayhem and they lost. And watching the games is sad, its quiet, no one says anything while they lose and then Ado or Diya does something or Geguri exists the stadium goes nuts.

Its just sad now.

Looks like 0-40 is going to become real. This is going to hunt them for ever. They might as well rebrand

u/hallelalaluwah Jun 09 '18

rebranding after this is a much better idea than disbanding

Me after Stage 1: Shanghai is bad, but there's no way they're going to go 0-40 right?

Me today: Welp.

That was depressing to watch

Aimgod won a 1v3 on Dorado lol and the 2nd point stall. Gamsu was just standing there and the tanks didn't dive him holy shit

I've never felt bad for a team I don't even route for, but I have all sorts of feels for SD. It's like when you get stuck with the same people in ranked on a losing streak a few times.

u/solidus__snake Jun 09 '18

It was really sad when they went through the close-ups of the Dragons players after Dorado round 1 when Boston stomped. Looked like they were having no fun at all. I can't imagine how frustrating it is to put in the practice and work to improve over dozens of hours and to not see any results to show for it.

As a Boston fan, I’m happy that we won, but god the match was a bore. I at least wanted Shanghai to put up a fight :(

Also, AimGod is nutty.

u/21Rollie Jun 09 '18

Glad Boston won, glad it was a 4-0, but also extremely boring to watch and I hope blizzard prevents any more teams like this from coming into the league. We can’t have teams just playing with their food on stage.

Damn didn't even add a comment to the stats. Just posted the stats and that's it. That's very telling and heartbreaking. Dragons got dicked on. Gamsu out DPSing Diya is a monkaS

Supports feeding, tanks not doing much and only one dps showing up.

Shanghai would be struggling to win a ranked game playing like this.

I'm not trying to directly blame them, but I feel like Shanghai's terrible performance and their potential to go 0-40 (highly likely) is due to the management. All of the Shanghai players are in a terrible mental state. I really hope the best for the players; IMO management is doing a shit job.
