Idk but guessing its probably Kafe during the Major quarter finals vs Team Liquid, specifically round 3 on reading/fireplace, 44 seconds into prep phase

Interesting to see that

is the closest team to the average age and experience of the last 9 SI and Major winning teams
Could they be our next Major champions? 🤔
Despite our shortcomings when it comes to finals, Swansea remains the top university esports team when it comes to total BUEC points accumulated over the last 3 years for R6S.
Incredibly proud of this accomplishment and of those who have helped us reach this point.

No surprise to see Azami taking the 🥇 for most picked operators, but did you expect Ying to be the most banned operator? 🤔
An absolute insult to all LGBTQ members in our esports community. To celebrate inclusion and diversity but then to host the awards in a country that continues to discriminate and carry out capital punishment against the LGBTQ, words cannot describe.

Six years ago I was sat at home watching PENTA vs EG play in the Grand Finals of SI 2018. If you told me that one day I would be involved with SI I wouldve called you a liar.

Bingo! we have ourselves a winner

To add to this thread, as a student-run society there is a massive limit to what we can achieve without external support from the university or other companies. We are all full-time students, running the society voluntarily and that puts a massive strain on how much we can do 1/8

But I think it’s so reductive to put it down to marketing where now warwick is so far ahead with the opportunities it gets as a result of having won all these titles and received all this investment, it’s gonna take a hell of a lot more to get close
