as a pistons fan, I agree

W name
L take

hopefully he can take time away to rest and reset and come back stronger, would love to see El Diablo kicking ass in VCT again

Saya vs the rest of the Guard core, lets goooo

okay but what does that have to do with NRG?

All regions might be cooked based on how many madrid teams/historically good orgs didnt make it

why are we catching strays? whos hating on 100T?

b + d + driving

they don't get to pick, its randomly seeded between the 2 groups winners

i dont see how this is a problem, its a change up, doesnt mean its bad.

marved wasnt that bad? he had his moments like everyone else?

PRX
TH
100T
GENG
LEV
FUT
G2
EDG
FNC
FPX
T1
DRG

I hope so considering NRG is a disappointment so I at least have G2 to root for to do something

clown org

MIBR clown org

thats what im sayin

USA USA USA USA

Happy for G2

LOL

T1 lucky after how they performed
FNC despite being washed are still a top 5 EMEA team, if they get their shit together they'll look good
G2 been underrated the whole time and are coming into form when needed

Not that crazy when you consider teams like KC, DRX, and KRU choke

why people downfragged this is crazy

G2 or PRX

G2 - been my 2nd NA team since TGRD was in challengers qualification
PRX - my fav APAC team

as an org overall yeah, not in valorant though

T1 v G2 incoming please

womp womp

yessir

He geniunely might be the most underrated IGL in valorant, definitely in americas, people forget that TGRD was a top NA team in 2022

LETS GO G2

might be jumping a bit with the fnc comparison but one can hope

yeah ive been a fan of the g2 core for years so im happy to see these guys doing well

that'd be an insane matchup, g2 clears tho

g2 (formerly TGRD) were always my 2nd team, if they make it ill be so happy for that core

that could change today

brimstone on haven back in 2021

i can't imagine this goes well

womp womp

SEN and FNC, don't hate them just dislike. Some of the players are cool but i also dislike some of them as well so those might be my least favorite teams. Fanbases don't help that. But as an NRG fan I understand we're just as disliked nowadays

Honestly I feel like Chet hasn't had the impact this season as in seasons past, so he might be the most likely, Its hard to say who from the optic core would be dropped because

Crashies is still a really good initiator and his comms are the best on the team
Victor while inconsistent has been a really good flex over the years, I'd take him on Raze over Demon1 anyday of the week
Marved who also just came back to the team is an elite controller when he needs to be, he's called Iceman for a reason.

The problem if they dropped one of the Crashies/Victor duo it would likely mean the other would want to go as well and could lead to problems on the team, but theres plenty of other T2 players that can play their roles to a high level, as opposed to with Marved where most current controller players are not at his level.

Thing is the best of NA T2 are the likely contender challenger teams like M80, MXS, OXG, so getting players like Zander, Brawk, Verno, Vic, BCJ, Bdog, Nismo, Dapr; wouldn't be the most sensible from likely some of those players perspective when they can stick with their cores and likely get deep into ascension.

I honestly think if they did make a move though we'd likely need to get an ACTUAL IGL, Similar to SEN of last year, NRGs lack of an experienced IGL once Dephh was removed it showed when they brought Marved in.

Facts

the same 3 baiters don't count, just like how you dont speak for the sen fanbase despite you being the most known fan rn on this shithole of a site

Who said we were Shanghai winners?

SEN fanbase has been the loudest egotistical fanbase on this site for years to be honest. I won't deny we have just as many annoying baiters that are pretty vocal but before this year NRG fans were not that bad and I've been rooting for this org since 2021

his overcooking or disaster ideas for comps like the whole Victor vs Demon1 for Raze. Those timeouts have not clearly been as effective as they were even last year. I'm hoping for a bounce back don't get me wrong but this season has been a huge letdown so far.

Optic roster
Yay
FNS
Crashies
Marved
Victor

or NRG 2022
Ethan
Hazed
S0m
Tex
Eeiu

like SEN fans don't do the exact same shit bruh

I hope so, but hope and faith in this team is at an all time low, we don't deserve Shanghai in this current form, if we make playoffs I hope we can make a run and clean shit up but if not i'm already focused on split 2

Y'all still glazing thats crazy

I mean the hope is at an all time low after last night. Ethans IGLing, the entire attack side ideas between him and Chet (whos coaching has also clearly fallen off) has honestly shown, I can only hope it gets better with time but to be honest we do NOT deserve to go to Shanghai,

Ethan igling, Chet coaching both being bad as well as him not being great on Raze

my goat

Look they're kinda cooked, I aint gonna shill when I know they're playing like shit rn, atleast we got victor raze

yea we're cooked
