What happened to ALG???

[waddles]

They were doing so well, and even weak3n was pretty good. Now weak3n is getting mocked and hated, and ALG is doing trashy. Anyone know what happened? And I need a bit more ellaboration on what happened to Incon, lol.

Incon did a video about that (did not see it but he might have say why he si getting kicked out of alg) also, alg wasn't a rly good pro team (even if I'm sad to say so, cuz i rly like Incon AND weak3n)

Alg actually did do pretty good against Nrg but did horrible against Licht. They lost both games and became the first team from outside of latam to lose to latam. As for weak3n, he is being hated on now because he picked Thor (who is said to be his worst God) and missed all but one ult during the entire game, he either just missed the enemy or used it on the speed buff.

Also dont forget this Alg we are seeing was only formed about 2 months ago, they still might have communication problems do to being a new team, and there very well be other problems they need to overcome.

If you would like to watch the game in question, you can see it here

Thanks for the fast replies. :) This clears some things up.

From what I remember, Allegiance didn't qualify directly into the SWC and had to go through the Gauntlet tournament to qualify as Wild Card for NA for starters. From what I gleaned from Incon's and Weak3n's videos about it, the Allegiance eSports people asked Incon what he thought about changing up the roster and replacing the rookies they had in the ADC and Solo positions, and Incon basically said he didn't think it was necessary, so they apparently also talked to Weak3n and MLCStealth and they said they liked the idea, so the ALG people dropped Incon also and decided to create a new roster around just Weak3n and MLCStealth.

Incon was upset because he had put the team together from a bunch of "free agents" and rookies after getting dropped from EnVyUs after Season 2 where he had been playing with Weak3n, then when Weak3n got dropped from EnVyUs a little while later, Incon brought him and MLCStealth onto ALG after some of the original ALG players retired or were offered spots on "better" teams. So there had already been some bad blood started between Incon and Weak3n last year due to very similar circumstances where Incon had put a team together, then got kicked off the team and feeling like Weak3n didn't really stand up to defend him either time. Incon's point is that he's tried to be loyal to the individual players and that it's not like they were going to win Worlds regardless so why break up the team for "no reason" while remaking the team around the two newest players to the roster, while Weak3n's point is that the sponsor is kinda the boss and what they want to do is what they want to do and why not try to get some better players and give it the best shot going forward anyway?

So make of that what you will, eSports teams, at least in Smite, change their rosters up so much since there is no cap on when they can swap players around that some of these teams at SWC were a bit different than they were during the season... Presumably the new ALG roster hadn't had enough time to come together with their team play and just didn't end up playing on the level of the other teams in the tournament, but honestly even the old ALG roster team was hit or miss during the season too...

Simple all NA players are overhyped. Having EU teams on first and second place proves it. Only EU player that gets enough praise is Adapting, still it's nothing compare to NA players.
Don't worry people will be sucking Zapman's, Weaken's, Barra's or even Incon's ♥♥♥♥♥ in no time again, saying they will beat EU. And than LAN will come and EU will "suddenly" win.
