What happened to Cosmic? I know they changed names to something else, but didn't keep up this season.

Knew all that, that is all before Season 1 stuff. They won season 1. What happened to them in Season 2? They changed names again, I think they are like G2 or something now.

Looks like they just sucked it up this season

quote:

It's G2 Esports, the former iBUYPOWER Cosmic squad manned by Cameron "Kronovi" Bills, Brandon "Lachinio" Lachin, and Ted "0ver Zer0" Keil. After winning last season's trophy as underdogs, thanks to a late roster shuffle and missing the online finals, they were favored to make a strong run this year — and certainly seemed confident during our post-victory interview, as well.

G2 struggled mightily out of the gate, however, and the situation didn't improve enough to make up the difference. The team spent the first three weeks of League Play in last place, not winning a single series until that third week, and then squeezed out another victory this past weekend to wind up 2-5 in series wins — good for seventh overall, but not enough to put them into the Regional Playoffs. Sadly, their Midseason Mayhem win didn't count towards the standings, even if it earned the team $4,000 in the process.

Looking at the results, G2's losses in League Play haven't typically been blowouts — but they were consistently edged out by the competition. Player stats show a significant reduction in shot accuracy: Kronovi made a staggering 58.5 percent of his shots on goal during the season one Live Finals, but his season two League Play goal percentage has dropped dramatically to 28.4 percent (good for 13th in the region).

He’s actually pretty even with the NA region’s average shot percentage of 28.6 percent in League Play, but then 0ver Zer0 is at 21.6 percent and Lachinio at just 20.3 percent. Assists and saves are also down across the team, and as strong as each player may be, they didn't seem to be in a great rhythm this season with their rotations and playing as a cohesive squad, allowing opportunities for opponents to capitalize on their mistakes.

Perhaps distractions played a role: Kronovi and 0ver Zer0 both relocated during League Play to share an apartment together, and then team members were busy at TwitchCon during another competition weekend. Between heightened expectations and other obligations and changes that have emerged, it may have been difficult to focus and continue their winning ways from last season. The team built a reputation of surprising opponents when it really counted, but that didn't happen this time around.

Yea their team didnt mesh very well, and they have now broken up. OverZero and Kro are still together. Lachinio moved on to another team.

I suck at 1v1, so no.

It's a completely different game to me. My 50/50 game needs serious work is probably why...

They sucked (compared to the other top teams) in online play in season 1 with that team in the 2nd half. They just killed it at LAN. I wasn't surprised to see them fail to make it to Amsterdam since it was entirely online.

Feel free to add me. Steam name is the same. Just solo queued doubles to champion rank since I don't have any friends that really play the game consistently.
