He said, "There is only one Japanese national, so you should manage with care.
What does this have to do with SZ management and nationality?
Even if tixx's comment was a gaffe, why bring up nationality?
If this is not discrimination, what is it?

L Streamer. He does not deserve to be on an official RIOT Streaming.
However, ZETA's OW2 division is a mixed unit of Koreans and Japanese.
That is exactly what it is. The Brazilian team ended up having to bring in outside players, even though three of their teams are in the Americas League.
If you put Sliggy or SGares in it, it might help a little. In any case, Carlao is not competent as a teir1 coach.
I don't care if it's true or not, they are right to fire Carlao. lol
Despite the matchup between the two weakest teams in Pacific, a crazy number of Japanese are watching the game.Absolutely crazy, even for a team from your own country.

1 Japanese and a half-Japanese, this what the future of Japan will look like if it doesn't close the gate. Just kidding. That was a joke. I don't mean anything by that.
Fucking disband this Team. Bad with 3 imports what's the point
After a spectacular performance in Split 1, Split 2 got off to a poor start.
Was it counteracted or was it not a big deal to begin with?
At least he can't be donk.

After witnessing LOUD's disappointing upset loss at the lock-in, the Brazilian youth were in despair.
Then the Brazilian team achieved a Grand Slam in Rainbow Six Siege and exploded in popularity.
In short, FNATIC's lock-in win was the cause of the decline of the Brazilian VALORANT scene. It was their fault.
They should get coaches bzka and frod from mibr.

It was very interesting to see the reaction of the Japanese community when the NRG roster was announced.

If NRG can't win with those guys, then the importance of IGL will be re-evaluated, but they're fucking strong anyway.
861:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 01:55:20 ID:x/EHVqSoSa
The luxury liner NRG is going!
Have you been on it yet?
895:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 03:14:57 ID:6OSXE22M00
This is the best!
896:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 03:15:02 ID:j3G2mHSYMM
I'd faint if this was weak NRG.
900:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 03:19:34 ID:RUZqL4Gk00
LEV, NRG and SEN look strong out of the box!
901:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 03:20:15 ID:cdyYTl5oSa
The birth of the invincible fleet NRG!
Next season, FNC's rivals will definitely be NRG and LEV
And the big hole SEN
EMEA and pacfic are done.
904:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 03:21:40 ID:MNF68NHk00
nrg if this is weak, I'm going to faint.
victorI'm at the age where I'm about to retire.
909:UnnamedPlayer : 2023/12/24(Sun) 03:28:03 ID:fIrJU7mY00
It would be funny if I couldn't win this.
913:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 03:30:54 ID:gwPYNCcY00
I love the feeling of brain connection when Victor and crashies are the only two left.
But I thought Som was the strong one in NRG, so it's a real waste to take a break next year!
953:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 05:21:17 ID:Syz2O9KQ00
Isn't NRG the best all-star team in NA history?
965:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 05:55:28 ID:cOwsNjok00
It's a luxury problem to have three luxury cruise ships, the NRG, the SEN, and the LEV.
976:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 06:41:02 ID:1wkhrSgo00
ethan is the kind of guy who knows how to use a yolk in a pearl, and the role change will work out just fine.
985:UnnamedPlayer : 2023/12/24(Sun) 07:21:25 ID:VOc.FfHo00
ethan is a veteran, so IGL will probably be fine.
997:UnnamedPlayer:2023/12/24(Sun) 08:18:01 ID:tsbRO5IQMM
chetIt's usually a good argument.
It's a good example of how a good IGL, like ex6tenz in the CS era, is no good if it's too weak itself.

Individual player ratings are not bad in APAC, with the exception of Hiroronn, as shown below.
In other words, they are clutched by too many bad small-group moves.
APAC Japan Team Player Rates (out of 57 total)
9th 1.13 Laz

The level of the tier 2 leagues in NA and Turkey is very high, and their ratings have not deteriorated significantly after participating in international leagues.
OXY 1.04→1.19 +0.15
eeiu 1.15→1.15 +0
NaturE 1.11→0.97 -0.14
moose 1.04→0.95 -0.09

RieNs 1.12→0.95 -0.17

They are bullying the weak ones in the low-level Nordic league to heap up their stats; all of the 2023 members are participating in the 2024 EMEA league, and all of them have dropped their ratings significantly.
So even if this year's Apeks members join the EMEA league next year, they are not expected to perform well.
2023 POLARIS split2 : 2024 EMEA stage1 rating

The problem with EMEA is that tier 2 and tier 1 are too different, the members of Apeks last year mistakenly thought they were strong when they just had a substantial smurf in a low level Nordic region. They are tier1.9.
Although not on the list, Team Liquid seems to have been duped by three frauds. lol.
I don't know the details, but it appears that a team owned by a very popular streamer is participating.
Frankly, I am anxious to see if the BR Challengers, which starts in a few days, will be exciting.
Despite the fact that three popular teams - VIT, KC, and G8 - have moved to the EMEA League, it has the second most viewers in the entire ongoing tier2 scene (the most popular being Japan).
Below are the viewership numbers for the tier2 scene as confirmed by Liquipedia.
Japan : Average 106426, Highest 232477
France : Average 16183, Highest 50371
Turkey ：Average 6611, Highest 22258
Spain : Average 3973, Highest 13826
Polaris: Average 971, Highest 2412
Portugal: Average 894, Highest 1927
What is even more surprising is not that any particular team is gaining viewers, but that the league as a whole is popular.
According to Esports Charts , the five most-watched matches were as follows Of the eight teams participating in the league, seven of them, not including Monaco Esports, are included.
DVM vs JobLife : 50371
Mandatory vs Solary : 32325
Valiant vs JobLife : 30506
Mandatory vs ZERANCE : 28670
Mandatory vs Akroma : 25210
The overall trend is that regions with a thriving CS2 competition scene tend to have a less thriving VALORANT competition scene, but France is a complete exception. Why?
There are plenty of teams with less than 2 players and head coach left from last year's season.
I agree that it is not a good idea to make replacements right before the start of the season, but to criticize DFM for anything else is wrong.
C9...jakee, Xeppaa
EG...potter, jawgemo
FURIA...Khalil, mwzera
LEV...Mazino, Kingg
TH...Boo, neilzinho (not including benjyfishy)
KC...Shin
VIT...ceNder, Salah
DFM...Anthem, Melofovia
GENG...Meteor
TLN...Crws, JitboyS
GE...Lightningfast
It will be LOUD-G2 NRG-MIBR to avoid matches between teams from same country.
Pool excluding PRX, which won last year
1.DRX,T1
2.ZETA,TS
3.GENG,RRQ
4.GE,TLN
5.DFM,BLD
Groups A and B have the following combinations
1 vs 5
2 vs 4
Group C must have added the combination between Pool 3 because PRX is exempted from the first round.
My prediction
A
1.BLD
2.ZETA
B
1.DRX
2.TS
C
1.PRX
2.RRQ
Play-in
1.ZETA
2.RRQ
3.TS
Play-off
1.PRX
2.BLD
Even in Japan, where the average level is the weakest in the region, one team can field five international league-class players, so why does India have such a dearth of talent?(Idontknowdfm)
Who is FAKER of VALORANT？

GE should acquire him. He is Indian and would not fall under the restrictions on imports from other regions.
Those who slammed Curry when he joined C9 in 2022 should apologize first before praising him.

No My point is that Brazilian offline tournaments are better.
Players who competed in Masters TOKYO and Redbull Homeground often post positive feedback about the Japanese crowds, but it seemed a bit unnatural. At least it felt more than the posts about the Brazilian crowds at LOCK IN.
Are their posts just flattering, like F1 drivers praising Suzuka Circuit?
I agree, FENNEL was eating into FNATIC until the very end.
FNC 13-3 ZETA

Well, in NA, G2 and SEN, and in Brazil, MIBR is losing to tier2 teams this season. It is in every region. And these 3 teams have lost outright in BO3, worse than FNC.

G2 players were chosen for the tier1 team because they proved themselves to be the best in the Americas tier2 scene when they used to be in GUARD...does joining a tier1 team make them weaker? Haha.
