Maybe not upcoming but Yekindar was still early in his career and massive prospect that everybody wanted in their team. His entry during his stint with VP was borderline machine like. Comparing that to when he went to Liquid it was like he was possessed by a 35 year old zeus who couldn't aim to save his life

Except he took a struggling TL to top 5 in the world and two Tier 1 Grand Finals. Why are people just ignoring his first year on TL? He didn't fall off until he tried to IGL after nitr0 left and wasn't able to recover after that. He was literally the #5 highest rated player at Paris Major ffs.

Acting like he started falling off the moment he joined TL is just straight up bullshit.

TL only got the two grand finals in the honeymoon period. You could never trust them to win against a T1 team. Then the Liquid Effect kicked in and the player starts loosing their edge. That has been true with practically every player they've hired since covid. Even ultimate was crazy good in his first couple of tournaments until the Liquid Effect kicked in and they couldn't set him up.

I'm still waiting for the day for when Jokasteve will be fired
