Donk’s mentality pulling Spirit to the bottom

    Donk's mentality pulling Spirit to the bottom 
    
    Is only me mentioned everyone in team Spirit looks like they just don't want to disappoint little boy in their team more than win something and it looks like team strategy? Even if you look at interview of new-old players they said how they have to support him because he can decide to leave. When he started in team Spirit they became best team for half of season and there wasn't such a big pressure. Now I see how mad is donk after his fails even in games they're winning and it fells like everyone including coach are scared to make mistake to not be under donk's negative aura, we could hear it in TeamSpeak in BD Major and how he behaved after loosing mirage(Zywoo would return as better version of him, donk returned tilted). Pressure in TS is very high, but this player makes it worse and worse for his teammates despite he's individually best player, he has to be responsible for his behavior and team results, if he wants to win tournaments as a team he has to fix his mentality. Can imagine TS with Zweih instead of Donk on his core roles could be better team without tilted star.
    
    Simply worst problem of TS is returning to the game after any lose, sometimes it's impossible to comeback and if they lose few rounds in a row they gonna drop this map. And someone after clutch will say "I don't like what happens" and everyone falls silent instead praise the player who won the round
    
    What do you think?

    The whole team walking on eggshells around one player is never gonna work long term, even if he's insane mechanically
    
    Reminds me of donk's early days where the talent was undeniable but the mental side was holding everyone back
    It’s always the worst when your teammate who is doing very well dunks on you verbally. It’s such a mental distraction. If that person is really mad and tearing you apart, it can feel like you HAVE to consider what they’re saying and they can absolutely be wrong. Makes you second guess yourself.
    
    At least that’s my experience. It never makes me play better to hear the clearly better gamer get upset. It’s why I always try to stay chipper and keep morale up. Helps way more than people give it credit for.

    m0NESY’s mentality pulling Falcons to the bottom

    Is only me mentioned everyone in​ Falcons​​​ looks like they just don't want to disappoint little boy in their team more than win something and it looks like team strategy? Even if you look at interview of new-old players they said how they have to support him because he can decide to leave. When he started in​ Falcons​​ they weren't great and there wasn't such a big pressure. Now I see how chill is m0NESY​​​​ after his fails even in games they're winning and it fells like everyone including coach are scared to make mistake to not be under m0NESY​​​'s negative aura, we could hear it in TeamSpeak in BD Major and how he behaved after loosing mirage(donk would return as better version of him, m0NESY​​​ returned chill and looking like he doesn't care). Pressure in Falcons​​​ is very high, but this player makes it worse and worse for his teammates despite he's individually best player, he has to be responsible for his behavior and team results, if he wants to win tournaments as a team he has to fix his mentality. Can imagine Falcons​​ with degster​ instead of ​m0NESY​​​​ on his core roles could be better team without a chill star who doesn't care.
