FNC is the best

Fnatic better, but NAVI second best

astonishing

NVIA vs Fnatic true final

Ronaldinho playing rn

different mentality

every org cutting or disbanding rn, and these guys buy yay and throw him away right after like he is trash.

???

sick: from cuck to chad
loving this episode of weekly valorant drama

this world is doomed

You guys (not just NA) were shitting on EMEA during the alpha bracket, now it's our time.

QuotinerX, qw1, sociablEE, ..
Turkey still has a lot of good duelist players other than cNed

100T just overrated

100T 2-1 FUT (10-13, 13-6, 13-9)
FNC 2-0 FUR (13-8, 13-5)

good match but irrelevant since they both lose to fnatic

that's literally everyone's pickem
Edit: ok wrong link

Gen G, Vitality, Giants, KOI, KC

They got destroyed by GE, what made them think they could win against LEV???

They got destroyed by GE last time on pearl and still pick it.
Maybe I'm clueless.

I get your point, but miracle rounds that are 50/50 at best don't seem replicable to me. Sure, they could have played those rounds better, but just in the last one, for example, King just caught a good timing when cender was putting down the turret and turned it into a 1v1 in his favor. Whether it was a good decision to try to put down the turret in the "open" idk, it's undeniable that King got a bit lucky.

VIT played better unlucky

0/8

Only three teams, Giants, VIT, and KC, made it to the quarter-finals (won at least one match) without a core of 3 or more players.
The only one of those teams to win against a team with a core of 3 or more players is KC when they won against FPX.

There are 14 teams that don't have an ex-core of 3+ players: TL, KRU, GE, VIT, RRQ, SEN, T1, KOI, DFM, GIA, Gen.G, KC, TH, and MIBR.

TL;DR: Teams that are essentially new sucked. They need time.

shao is an initiator imo
Mako is the undisputed controller goat

velocity gaming

5/18

ANGE1 💪💪💪

DRX, Talon, PRX (hopium), Gen.G, and TS look good.

KC > FPX > 100T > EDG
KC is shit btw

exposed by 40 yo boomers

maybe the worst team at this event

Their mental is boomed
NRG is playing super well
Giants are clueless

NRG played perfect this map. They didn't even let Giants start.

Upset my ass! Giants just better.

Giants are 10x better than KOI

GIA is actually a tier above NRG

split is dogshit

no

Giants all the way

GIA, C9, NAVI, FNC
C9, FNC
FNC

GIA 2-0 NRG
LLL 2-1 KC
C9 2-0 DRX
EG 2-1 TLN

I don't think LOUD played much better than KC tbh.
I did not analyze the matches in detail obviously, it was just the feeling I got.

KC can win, but they are not favorites.
I don't know why everyone just assumed GenG is the second coming of DRX after one match. Maybe LOUD is weaker than before? idk

maybe mind games

I want sheydos vs molsi

4-13
