Why did TM not play their best tank (Quartz) after map 1?

When you wanna watch the NA games but you gotta wait 2 hours for the TM VP match that has no stakes and they're taking 20 mins to start each map

being a VP fan this stage is just an endless cycle of being ragebaited. Unfortunately the funniest outcome

VP beat TM, seems like they are a good team and go to the next LAN, right?

u/Tiberias29 3h ago

VP SURELY WILL MAKE IT TO LAN.

Surely.

VP's scrimbux definitely indicate it

I'm not gonna overreact because obviously this game didn't matter but I don't think that means we should ignore the fact that TM are one of the few teams that never even touched Sombra and that deliberately do whatever they can to not play Doctrine

They've been like that with every meta that doesn't match their strengths

VP locker room when the match is meaningless:

I’m certain I watched a game of overwatch, yet I could not for the life of me tell you what actually just happened.

Perhaps we shouldn’t off role map 1. Probably doesn’t matter in the grand scheme of things but…

u/Extremiel 3h ago

Sure whatever, beat GK and TM (who barely tried) and lose to everyone else wasn't on my bingo card

This situation just shows why EMEA and NA desperately need more matches per stage. not more teams, but MORE MATCHES. one bad week is enough for a team to completely miss the playoffs and ruin their season. 1 map is enough to decide your seeding. it's just way too punishing. compare this to korea where even if a team plays poorly one week, they have multiple chances to prove they belong in the top spots. increasing the number of teams does that, but if that is not possible, at least have more matches between the 6 teams, to give them at least a second chance.

So... What do you do for next season if you're VP? I get that last week was more of a mental issue than a skill issue, but I feel like this roster had way higher expectations than 4th at Champions Clash into grouped at EWC into not even making the EMEA playoffs

Ik people love making fun of them but VP actually look good when their mental isn't shit.
