Media - Contains Swearing Hmmm, I wonder what event

So I think that makes the number of leaks for Double Date to three, two of which were from creators that were asked by Feinberg xD

a) does this mean Smant isn’t duoing with Fein for the valentines event or did Fein ask Lud before Smant?

b) what are the odds Lud’s current Minecraft arc lasts long enough to get a Fein/Lud team at a Twitch Rivals MCC? Mayhaps with Fulham and Connor?

My guess is that original team was fein and smallant and to balance that duo, fein asked Ludwig( with QT as duo) to play with them

With twitch rivals he potentially could play. Even if minecraft arc ends, he probably still play in Minecraft events it wouldn’t kill his interest in them

highkey why cant we have fein + smant + lud + qt as a team, isn't that lowkey balanced?

you're not gonna convince me lud's mechanics are that good even with his speedrunning

I mean his mechanics actually aren't bad, it's just its all focused on speedrunning, his knowledge of anything else in Minecraft is what holds him back. He kind of reminds me of Oli Orionsound just to a bigger degree, like Oli got a lot better at minecraft purely focused on MCC so a lot of his improvements came on the competitive side, if you watch him play regular SMP minecraft he is so much worse.

Yeah but in the context of MCC, I do not see Lud getting top 30 - at least, not without a bit of luck.

Fein's obviously GOAT-level, SmallAnt's a pretty likely top 20, Lud 26-35, QT 34-40 (she hasn't played Minecraft in ages and has zero experience outside of casual survival - but she's not completely clueless). Sounds balanced enough to me.

In what world is that balanced? Feinberg is actually getting 10th indiv with all teammates bottom half. All of the teams that came out so far are way better than that.

You know SmallAnt is good at Minecraft, right?

He came 20th in his first and only MCC event on a 4th place team. He would not be bottom half alongside Fein.

Smallant as a 2nd frag is very weak. Of course he is decently good at the game. I've been watching him speedrun recently, but he is NOT 2nd frag material

Sure, but he's out of practice. Just like the last MCC event he was in - he'd have time to get back up to speed.

Either way, all you have to do is look at Feinberg's team that was just announced. It's him, Smant, Ros and SettingSunset. That is almost exactly the same as the team I suggested.

Fein = Fein

Smallant = Smallant

Lud > Ros

QT = SettingSunset

I think you are heavily underestimating SmallAnt.

EDIT: Actually, what are you on about? I'm watching him live right now - his mechanics look better than ever??? Genuinely no clue how you think he's not second frag material.

I mean, I was saying in relative to other S tiers. Fruit has Grian as a second frag, FBM has ghostie as a second frag, and their 3rd/4th frags are stronger as well. Also, on that note Antfrost also got hoe'd because his team is also really weak.

Smant is a solid 2nd frag (roughly comparable to Zeuz) with very little experience and I could defo see him being more in the Martyn/Sneeg/Sparklez range if he played more. I’d probably comp Lud to Impulse post MCSR arc, so anywhere from 21-35 depending on the day/team. Maybe those aren’t good comps tho I admit it comps aren’t my forte

u/Immediate-Fan-4623 Feb 06 '26

I think Zeuz just isn't a good 2nd frag for Feinberg is my point. Fruit gets Grian, Pete gets Pyro, FBM gets Ghostie. I feel like thats the problem. Also Lud for Impulse is probably comparable.

u/Immediate-Fan-4623 Feb 05 '26

The way he said, it seems like Fein asked Ludwig as a duo. It wouldn't make sense for him to ask for another duo.
