Runi is solid, I'd say he's one of those good enough to be franchise level but not a superstar player, shouldn't have dropped him to begin with imo.

As for Moose I'd say he's a really underrated player, glad he got his shot in franchising but I wouldn't have thought he would be the first SR/LG core member to make it when Bdog and Mada exist

Yeah that is true but it could very well just be an off day, upsets happen

GE won today, Bleed won, C9 won

Friendly reminder they lost to TS in regular season last year too

Likely one bad game they'll still be top 3 Pacific

Yeah last week

Upset weeks

Boomer

This is just lying on bros name at this point, even in map 1 when Bleed threw he was constantly rooting for Yay and calling him his king, he was critical when bleed played like shit some rounds and did make the bl00d and y0y references but he was rooting for him and just giving his input the whole time, you weren't watching the same stream apparently

we dont claim him

I went to sleep after map 1 because they decided to throw a 9-5 lead and thinking it was joever, just for them to win cleanly the next 2 maps? wtf bleed

I went to sleep after map 1 being disappointed in them throwing, and they decide to WIN!?

disband

yeah i'll give credit to the rural parts of cali and yeah its got some good natural beauty thats some of the best in the country, wouldn't say its THE best though.

You can find non americanized places all over the country tbh but thats always a plus when it does exist nearby

northern cali like western washington both are nicer natural areas but at the same time midwest clears

midwest > east coast > south > northeast > west coast

Washington is dogshit compared to the rest of the US, but yeah its better than Cali

Respectfully first strike trophy is the most meaningless trophies in all of val when only 20% of the players from it are even in tier 1 or 2 valorant since then.

Streamed to China or the whole world?

SEN or NRG right this minute, with potential for LOUD or LEV to surpass them depending on how the split goes

People really forget pros are humans too

Source?

C9 clown org

Boostio and Jawg were always solid/good players in pre franchising EG for as mid as that team was. They've been good players since like 2022, c0m kinda came outta nowhere and ya I'll say he might be a one hit but its a lil early

atleast i wasnt the only one thinking that

yeah FNS going on record to saying he'd want to play with s0m again would make getting the full team together again hard. I'd always be down to see those 2 make a comeback as well somewhere along the line.

Demon1 as of right now is miles above Yay and unless we see a return to form I can't say in good faith it'd be worth it, don't blame him for wanting to play after c9 cucked him

this

whats 17 more years?

I was alot more active here in 2022 and early 2023 so thats why I say it. Still see it here and there even today

We look mid on Breeze, but Vic Raze was pretty good on Split

i'm not denying that they have more fans. I also don't use the site a whole lot, 100t always has had a good amount of delusion among the self pity

FNC and Navi were moreso last year compared to this year from what I can see.

Either way baiters are baiters and ruin peoples perceptions on fanbases here.

my point is they've got just as many baiters that ruin the fanbase to make them seem deluded.

Yeah, but seems like every team also has the delusional baiters

SEN, 100T, FNC, Navi fans exist

Way to jump to assuming off like 3-4 bait accounts that we're all like that

thats just every fanbase on this site is it not?

Marved all the way, Mindfreak hasn't been in his prime iceman form since 2022, not just saying that cus flair bias cus I really like PRX and MF

Could be a mix of both as Crashies and Victor are good mid rounders, plus Marved has some igl exp

LOUD still good, I think mibr and furia either need to get more new t2 talent or time to cook.

As much as I'd like to see that, as it currently stands FNS is likely retiring and Ethan while not a better tactical IGL is better mechanically and flexibility wise. As for Yay, I think if he can reset his value and prove he still has it whether its with bleed or another team, maybe but Demon1 is also a top 5 duelist ITW right now. Plus game has evolved no guarantees the optic roster could have the same return as they did in 2022.

one can hope but its too early to tell

The fact that the sen bandwagon horde is so bent on hating on NRG fans all cus of 1 or 2 baiters is wild.

Like iirc somewhere it was said that just to get FNS, Crashes, and Victor cost a good amount. NRG likely just went the way of not spending too much money on the full roster when Marved also wanted to take time away from competitive

Optic buyout was apparently crazy high, esp for Yay

Doesn't help when he goes to shit teams, disguised was cheeks and yeah him and some of the other players who also looked good on other teams played like shit, plus with roster fluctuating that also played a factor.

He honestly needs to either switch roles, or the team needs to actually get better with better coaching. We might see a return to form if he moved to T2 and reset his value. But that's all speculation ofc

theyre all braindead regardless of flair, whats new

rats

#9 said it best

GE having arguable bad choices in talent is nothing compared to TS nepotism

More on the heavier side as they're metalcore but they're probably one of the best UK bands out there, newest song they just put out today

Global exists

Unfortunately where i was it was slightly cloudy over where the sun was, despite us getting a 99% totality the pics and view weren't the best, a few towns over got it way better than me though. Still was sick to see

1-9 and 1-11 in maps in the last 5 games, holy mid battle

Americas: Marved, Valyn, Ethan
EMEA: N4RRATE, ANGE1, Nats
