The top spot isn't hard to keep if you replace whatever teammate(s) you lose each season with the best the scene has to offer. You strengthen your own team and butcher the #2 / #3 team, ez win. TF2 doesn't have enough dedicated players to make several teams that would be on equal footing at the top

It's not just a b4nny exclusive thing either, 7 did it for ages in EU as well. I'm sure there are tons of other examples, I just don't follow the scene that closely. Player(s) on the #2/3 team get good enough to challenge the #1 team and give some hope of actual competition at the top => player(s) get poached and incorporated into the #1 team, boredom ensues next season. The #1 team has the same name, sure, but the roster changes every few seasons to a frankenstein mishmash of whoever the 6 best players at the time are, ship of Theseus kinda deal.

I was curious about this, and whether my memory of past rosters actually matches up with reality. So I made a spreadsheet to act as sort of a visual and statistical representation of the seasonal roster history of "The Banny Team", going back to eMg from season 6.

[Link to google sheet]

I'm mostly going off of Liquipedia records here since I can't be bothered to scour thru the dogshit ESEA match records to validate every roster, so let me know if I got something wrong. I didn't include CEVO cos it ran completely parallel to ESEA. There's a second tab at the bottom showing the roster history in a more text-based format.

In short, the FROYO Veterans roster would be (by class) arekk / clockwork / blaze / b4nny / habib / shade

The closest class-appropriate FROYO Veterans BLACK roster would be cyzer / Freestate / yomps / lansky / duwatna / Nursey

And the closest class-appropriate FROYO Veterans BLACK After Dark roster would be shrugger / Yz50 / mackey / enoryt / Muma / skeez

Not quite. Reptile joined the team about halfway through the season but on Soldier; CB was Medic for half the season with mackey stepping in the remainder. Then for LAN, mackey and Reptile switched roles. Reptile's S9 Medic performance was one of the best in ESEA history, which coincidentally was also tyrone's best performance.

Also, that team was eMg at the time. The froyotech name / brand did not come about until ESEA S16.

Granted all the 2021 losses were on EU ruleset so if this doesn't convince NA that EU ruleset is better, I don't know what will.

Just for context just so you know why Nasboii was like that - here's what b4nny said about him in the upper bracket final.

https://clips.twitch.tv/MoralSpicyChickenRaccAttack-TcfP0Hy5JSVioery

Also I don't think they're really bragging as much as trying to get inside b4nny's head and then he says something as delusional that they're struggling against them when they just rolled them 5-0 in 13 minutes on the previous map....

Not defending shittalking but let's be honest here b4nny is one of the worst culprits for doing that.

Last cup b4nny shittalked us and this cup he did, so I don't quite understand what the problem is. There is an important distinction to make here: we (including nas) know that when somebody else on that NA team did it, it was probably the standard "talk down the opponent in comms" kind of thing. However, with b4nny you know he means it.
People will disagree with this because of pride, but I feel like recently people started thinking Nas' shittalk comes out of nowhere, which is not exactly true. I know he has never been a saint, but believing that he fires blindly into the crowd is wrong.
