At least 2 teams have gotten shafted from that rule

yea he just completely locked out anyone getting the youngest by age to win an international

they are

Though I'm rooting on G2 and RRQ, I'm definitely interested in how GiantX plays out, considering they've been utter shit for almost 2 years atp.

kk would get top 3 at minimum tbh

Me preparing to call it mickey mouse the instant G2 or RRQ gets eliminated /s

I made this last year for Seoul (https://www.vlr.gg/378842/if-x-wins-champions), I'm gonna do it again

AMERICAS:

G2: They will become the first Ascension team to win an international event, having also become the first Ascension team to make an international grand final earlier this year. They also do this with one of the most dominant regional performances, having lost only twice. Jawgemo will become the first 2-time world champion, while JonahP will become the first Canadian player to win Champs.
NRG: They will become the team to win Champs with the most international debutants, with three. They will also be the team to win Champs with the most roster changes in the season, with two (Verno -> Brawk and FNS -> Skuba). Ethan will become the first 2-time world champion, while Mada will become the first Canadian player to win Champs.
SEN: They will become the first team to win international trophies across three different years. johnqt will become the first Moroccan player to win Champs.
MIBR: They will win Champs with the lowest regional point count at 9. aspas will become the first 2-time world champion, 3 years after his previous trophy.

EMEA:

Liquid: They will become Champs with the most roster changes in a year, with two (kamyk -> Serial -> trexx). nAts will win another trophy, over 4 years after his last international trophy at Masters Berlin in 2021, while trexx will become a Champs winner as the first player to make international appearances with two different teams in one season.
GX: They will become the team to win Champs with the most international debutants, with four, as well as the most roster changes in a year, with three (tomazy -> grubinho, runneR -> Flickless, and purp0 -> ara). They will also become Champions after failing to make it out of the Top 8 regionally for the majority of the year. Flickless and ara will become the first Belgian and Romanian players, respectively, to win a global event as part of their international debut.
FNC: They will become the first team to win Champs after attending every Champs prior and the only team to win every type of event (LOCK/IN, Masters and Champs). Boaster will lift the trophy after attending every Champs prior, this time as the last remaining member of the original Fnatic team. Chronicle will continue his reign as the most decorated player with 4 trophies. Crashies will become the first player to win international trophies in teams representing different regions (Optic in Americas, Fnatic in EMEA).
Heretics: They will correct the shortcomings from last year's Champions, as well as numerous top 3 finishes in both regional and global play. Benjyfishy will be considered one of the greatest FPS players, having achieved success in both Fortnite and Valorant. Boo and MiniBoo will become the first Lithuanian players to win an international event.

PACIFIC:

PRX: They will become the first team to win both Masters and Champs in the same year. PatMen will become the first player to win 2 international trophies in his rookie season.
RRQ: Crazyguy will become the first Vietnamese player to win an international event after a lengthy e-sports career spanning nearly 11 years, the most out of all Champs winners.
T1: They will become the first team to win both Masters and Champs in the same year. Meteor will tie Chronicle for the most decorated player with 3 international trophies. BuZz will lift the trophy after attending every Champs prior. DH will win the event in his international debut as the first player to win an international event after being called up from an Academy roster.
DRX: They will become the first team to win Champs after attending every Champs prior (Including Vision Strikers), with Termi and Argency lifting the trophy as the only remaining pieces of the 2020 core, and MaKo lifting it after attending every Champs prior. Estrella will win in his international debut.

CHINA:

BLG: nephh will become the first Singaporean player to win Champs (Making fun facts for this team at Champs is surprisingly difficult)
DRG: They will become the first Ascension team to win an international event. SpiritZ1 and Akeman will win Champs in their international debut.
EDG: They will defend their Champs trophy from last year to become the first back-to-back Champs winners. CHICHOO, nobody, KK, and Smoggy will all become the first 2-time champions, while Jieni7 will win the trophy in his international debut.
XLG: They will become the first Ascension team to win an international event. NoMan and coconut will become the first Hong Kong players to win an international event.

Ages:
DRX, XLG, T1, G2, PRX, RRQ, NRG, SEN, FNC: If any one of these teams wins, they will be the oldest team on average to win Champions (Next oldest is EG at 22y, 323d).
Ethan, Viva, Meteor, PaTiTek, Jawgemo, Estrella, d4v41, Zellsis, Boo, crazyguy, Boaster: If any one of these players' respective teams wins, they will become the oldest player by age to win Champions (Next oldest is Saadhak aged 25y, 5m, 23d). Crazyguy or Boaster would also become the oldest player by DOB to win Champions (Also beating out Saadhak born March 8th, 1997).
monyet, Alfajer, westside, HYUNMIN, Wo0t, Jieni7, Verno, DH, rushia, SpiritZ1: If any one of these players' respective teams wins, they will become the youngest player by DOB to win Champions (Next youngest is Less born February 24th, 2005). MiniBoo or any younger player winning would make them the youngest player by DOB to win any international event.

We got some new teams on the stage, ts bout to be fire 🔥

It is, thx

I haven’t played the game for a hot minute so I don’t know any skins past the 24 champs bundle.

All I know about that stinger is that every time I see valyn pull up with it he does some diabolical actions.

NA: Winner of Stage 3 and points leader get direct slots (ENVY are guaranteed at least the points slot). The points runner-up gets a play-ins slot.
LATAM: Top 2 from the overall LATAM tournament, which has the winners of LATAM North and South + respective point leaders, get direct slots. The 3rd place finisher gets a play-ins slot.
Brazil: Points leader (Stellae Gaming) + LCQ winner (Tournament between next 4 points standers) get direct slots. The LCQ runner-up gets a play-in slot.

Play-ins: Three teams compete in Play-ins. Because 2G were relegated from Ascension, the top 2 finishers get an Ascension slot.

Doesn't navi not hire russians

If they win champs that might be fair

Wouldn't they be like McLaren 2023 because they got 13-1'ed by DFM in Kickoff?

Half of this site was in diapers last time Ferrari won something; now they're known for sending drivers into suicidal ideation.

So when will they disband due to fraud charges

What extraneous circumstances bruh they got shafted by loud twice

...come to think of it I think loud = latifi

Which Formula 1 teams can you relate to a VCT team?

Goes double negative every match because Zeta thinks its a good idea to put him on initiator

win against C9 and they qualify through points

no zeta just does this thing where they play like prime fnatic but only after they bomb out of groups and their season's already over

Nah it’s a Yoga

I don’t really play video games on the go

Bro I just dropped 700 for a new laptop I think I’ll pass

I don't care who the ccp sends I'm not switching out of linux

lowkey rrq could pull a funny and throw against talon for the specific purpose of locking drx out of champs

Not even Masters, they fuckin sell out the venue with their T2 matches

Spike not being able to play for most of the year hurt them severely

It's actually insane that all three french teams threw buckets of money towards their superteams only to have one team not make stage 2 playoffs and another fuckin relegated

i made it up for dramatic effect

Bombed out of stage 1 + stage 2 relegation

Reject thought it was a good idea to replace BRIAN and muto for two of the scarz players and then proceeded to bomb out of split 3 playoffs

Can someone please explain comeback's logic to:

1. Leave BBL Pcific despite being frontrunners for Ascension
2. Join a team that won a total of 3 matches this year
3. Lose 95% of his stock by losing all of his matches, and
4. Be out of a team next year since Gentle Mates are likely disbanding after this

#4 would be a logistical nightmare ping-wise

somewhere in the vct rulebook it said that if both teams get the same placement in champions then it goes down to whoever had more points at the end of the season

hamilton rn:

zeta can you bully this team into bringing brian and muto back

did they not learn anything from hiroronn

They probably want to get all three regional wins because that would be pretty cool

real question do you mentally sing harumachi clover in the original version or the will stetson version

so if you reach champs grand finals you either become mid or you implode

off topic but I'm happy that yuki got points in that shitcan of a car

can we get 5 big BOOMs

i lowkey hope they get relegated for this god awful rebrand

me who switched to another OS that doesn't even allow it's anticheat

are we going to put him on sentinel like he was supposed to be on zeta

o7 streets won't forget you tping in front of lakia and getting a 4k

2024 DFM and Meiy

Glad to see that he got teammates now

Use linux instead (plz help i can't dualboot without either linux not enabling wifi drivers or windows just completely dying)

wish double duelist can become cool again so we can see trent raze and jawgemo neon be on every coordinate of the map (yes i know neon's getting nerfed but plz)

if oxy and xeppaa begrudgingly voted to drop rossy that would still be considered a unanimous decision

Also in rbhg the team liked his calling right until the finals vs T1, never really got into detail as to why that was different.
