Summary
The crew breaks down why claiming apEX isn’t a Top 3 IGL is a “stupid take” and argues he’s actually the best leader in Counter‑Strike right now. They also revisit the s1mple BC.Game saga, explaining why his late‑season burnout may not matter now that he finally has a real roster behind him. The discussion turns to soulfly’s tough start with Aurora and why he may be labeled a “bust” despite the issues being out of his control. Finally, the hosts deliver a bold prediction: Team Spirit will win at most one event this year, citing role issues, recycled players, and unrealistic expectations around donk’s impact.
