Biased how. There wont be any Brazilian team this time.
Secret is an obvious 12th
Zeta,GE,Secret
10,11,12
Oh it's just losing. I thought there's a sex scandal or something.
Rb has been losing since he left drx. that's not new
Boom has always been in the TS , Ascension Bleed and Talon level since 2022. They are not top 4 contender but they aint DFM 2023. Idk why people seems to think they would 100% finish bottom of the table
T1 overated and people underestimate boom too much.
T1 still winning this though
Realistically I didn't think that's happening, not even close.
But i was hoping it does, the meltdown in vlr would be funny af. Hence the pick
The Apeks pick is trolling yes. Also its 3/4 so far
https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/432b404d
Ahead of u all.
Saadhak + Engh seems like an obvious pick
They ran into flors site 3/12 times. with 3 sites thats kinda normal . Sure b is sometimes empty but they also don't spot flor all the time
I love flor but lets not be delusional here.
Their second best player last wear was Soulcas. that should tell you how bad this team is
Yes flor is mid in vct for her first game.
And thats good actually.
All the haters are saying she's a farmer that would get cooked by vct pros. She didn't. She did well in a shit team in her debut.
People who were expecting an Aspas are delusional. But you can't deny she looks like she belongs in T1 when before this match people were saying she's not even T2(except the mentioned glazers)
Stop moving the goalposts
She'll improve. Pair her with Leo and she'll do great(not derke level though).
Funfact: the 65000 prize for the 1st place would put whoever win this tournament above RRQ,NS and DFM in total winnings. In 1 tournament ...
They aint saving strats. TS wont get as much money unless they make it to champs playoff. Trace and G2 got less money for finishing 7/8th in champ 2024
Mako also said foxy9 will be the best duelist in apac though
But getting beyn back is certainly a major boost
Forsaken yoru is washed. The last time prx use yoru as their main comp is early 2024 split and they ended up moving forsaken to raze anyway.
And let's not talk about champs GF. Prx's yoru is still stuck in 2022
They are not on the list on overhyped rookies. And whats with the revisionism, Karon was the piece people want to see in Geng because he is a random ranker, while there are hype around simon because Chinese fans are tired about EDG
And Narrate, Meiy, Yetujey etc were only hyped when they start winning, just like Karon,Riens and S1mon. Before that nobody cares about them. And nobody ranks meiy , Keiko or yetujey as top 10 in the world or even their region. Quit straw manning, the only player rated top 10 in the world were Narrate after arguably being the best player in Emea kickoff
There is only two player that was extremely hyped before they even played this year : Woot and Primmie. Both succeeded in their own ways. Woot carried TH to a second place finish, Primmie brought Talon to an international (before you say he is overhyped, look at the pickems, nobody expected Talon to go through the group and they didn't) though i agree primmie being rated as top in the world is insane, but its a primmie issue, nobody else is as overhyped as him.
And how many established title winners actually did anything internationally? Oh right it was only Tenz and arguably aspas+com. Meanwhile established Eg+optic(NRG) is at the bottom of Americas, Navi won 1 game in split 2, and Fnatic won a total of 1 game in playoffs(same as yetujey btw). Stop overating washed players
No? That never happens
We abuse people when they are doing dumb stuff, the racial comes naturally after. Like if i saw a instalock jett bait and goes 2-10 i will talk shit and the nation slurs just come after
Notice Karon, Riens, Woot , flashback and simon is not in the list. Oh wow who would have guessed some hyped rookies failed and some hyped rookies succeed.
Rookies and Veterans are both hyped and some of them fails. Maybe next time stop hyping out washed people like y0y , n0vi core and nrg players too.
Most heroes are fun and more unique than OW. They actually made melee heroes and very high skill. Prettier heroes and graphics. They are not afraid of doing stuff like purely melee heroes such as Black Panther and Magic or constantly flying hero like Iron man.
Less predatory practice with perma battle pass. Smoother and more enjoyable gameplay... No queue role.
It has been a month and despite slander campaign from ow fans its still going strong
?? Bro South Asia was given a slot that they dont even deserve. And that team has given up on South Asian talent. South Asian teams are free win, they barely can compete with two kazakh carrying them.
Indonesia is doing fine, with boom going up, rrq and there various inter region exports(PRX, last year blazeking,monyet and Xccurate). Its already the most popular fps there anyway.
Thailand should have won ascension then. MITH could have finished second or even first if they didn't choke the final
Korea dominates the league via their own merit, and that is fine. The franchise league if anything favours the japanese (whose talent pool probably can't support two competitive teams) and South Asian (they don't even have 1 player that should be in tier 1).
If southeast asia+south asia get a league it will be by far the worst league in the world. We seen this in 2022 when their only relevant team is PRX. The first time an APAC team not called PRX qualify via pacific league since franchising is 2024 champs. Thats embarrassing when there's 4/5 teams (with bleed) or 6 (counting south Asia's ge)
Buzz being 6th is crazy
6 -10 should instead go
6 Munchkin (blud was arguably the igl of the year )
7 Smoggy
8 Forsaken
9 Mako
10 Buzz
Lakia should be there inplace of foxy or Invy. He won a trophy but was by far the weak link of geng
These kinds of questions never make sense
Whats the context ? They play each other, which meta and map are they playing on?
Assuming they play on their own meta( for example edg get their broken neon) and all maps are on the table
In that case
EDG 2024(You simply can't counter Kang Kang's neon, the other teams won't have a similar tool or even a buffed cypher)
EG 2023 champs( they did win and beat PRX and Loud)
PRX 2023 champs (they did beat EG and Loud in bo3s)
Loud 2023 champs
Fnatic 2023 Tokyo (contrary to popular believe Fnatic did not fell off in champ, the other teams simply get better, "Boaster says they would have beaten anyone outside of Loud" same dude also said they would have won Madrid if they were there, they ended up winning a total of 1 match in playoffs in the next two internationals)
Sen 2024(No broken skye or neon)
All that talk and neither wont be going to Bangkok lmao. T1+ DFm clears
I dont get how aspas is supposed to entry when his info init is in the enemy spawn. Entry with what support?
I can see an argument for just as good but not better.
RRQ got fked last year by running into GenG 5 times. Thats the main reason why they didn't make it to international events
Honestly the only take away is GE's core can shoot back against PRX and DRX. This is already a massive improvement. Tbf they do play with the best APAC GC players by a wide margin. But yes PRX is just running it down, DRX is fking around and Zeta is playing with academy players. Ge is surprisingly taking this seriously.
Tenz will pay that Mario guy to shoot mooda
Ez win for tenz and sencity
Because the discussion is about who the replace meteor with????
Even if Benjy is as good as meteor, he can't speak Korean. So point is moot
GenG only have enough money(because the competition is T1) to maintain munchkin or meteor. Despite meteor being the best sentinel in the world i would say munchkin is less replaceable. Proven IGL are very very rare especially as we are limiting it to Korean speakers only
There's off season messing around and finding out....
And there's losing to rapid lofi who got beaten like a lofi in Japanese 18+ animation in apac ascension...
If nrg lost to "head empty tap heads" team like say PRX , Talon or even DSG and Riddle its fine. They probably are just trying team comp and it didn't work
I think Na/Emea viewer doesn't know how bad rapid lofi is. They got 26-6ed by SKROSSI. This is the equivalent of Geng losing to turtle troop
A viet literally won ascension. Crazyguy in bleed won you know...
And its crazy a Pinoy is talking shit.. TS biggest achievement is beating TL in one game
There's off season fking around...
And there's losing to rapid lofi who got beaten like a lofi in Japanese 18+ animation in apac ascension... Wtf is this.
Reverse 12-5 lets fking goo
Nvm just jinxed it
Skrossi and Revenant officially better than NRG. Lofi got 6 now
No i ranked them low because we have a track record of this thing not working... So unless proven otherwise i would rank them low
Because termid keeps blowing up this roster when its at the precipe of glory and it performed worse every single time. Unless he somehow found 3 karons (tbf the additions were solid) i have 0 trust in him.
I was expecting them to be 1st 2 months ago because surely Termi knows something we dont when he kicks buzz. Turns out early looks says nope just more experiments i guess
Blud that 5 months is off season.. 3 months of it are probably primmie fking around in Thailand. And guess what. Kick off is 1 month away
And truth be told i had drx first two months ago because surely, you wont blow up DRX a second(third time if you count foxy for zest) when the roster looks like its finally going to be able to do something.
Surely this time he found like 2 karons (amd hyunmin is a known cracked player) But noo its just termi doing termi thing.. So drx is going to fumble around and miss two masters again
And Talon beat DRX twice
Geng beat PRX
TE beat Geng
Dfm beat TE
Prx beat DFM
Edg lost to everyone
Its a cycle, there's no takeaway from who beat who
People are overrating spg fr. Yes they look good vs tier 2 teams. So did pretty much all the tier 2 teams last year. The only one who did stuff was G2 and that's because their players are actually tier1 and got a significant upgrade in leaf...
Ranking imo based on off season and 2024(silly i know but its the only time we see half of these teams)
Alot have been taken from jett and raze since the start of franchising.
Case and point raze satchel speed, Jett second updraft etc.
Both things are going to happen at the same time
In
2022 2023 20242025
With Raze, Jett and Neon nerfs , they are much much weaker than their prime post Chamber meta. Yoru otoh have not been nerfed at all.. And with the phoenix buff(the wall is very huge, walling aside ,theres also a funny gimmick use of it to cancel sova and gecko drones..) are we going to see Yoru Phoenix meta?
Loud did really well with phoenix back in early 2024, and Yoru has appeared as second duelist in some niche maps.. so there's precedent atleast
TS and International Qualifiers
TH and finals
That team had Soulcas now's he's gone.. that's an upgrade
Blud says that when boom and Ge plays today
