The OP stated that he is talking about tournament high skilled play(~top 20 automatch)
How can the people in this topic agree/ no agree if they DONT play at that level themselves? Some people that dont agree dont not even play 1v1's ffs. Should be able to lock a topic based on playercards or something
I've watched a lot of tournament play/ high level play and based on this I see what OP means. Axis is, and always has been the side "to prepare or get rekt early game" If you are not ready for m20 at 4:40 you lost the game in most cases. Their will be no "fast luchs" when there is a m20 at ur cutoff at 4:40.
