I hope they can go further, even to the grand finals. It was sad looking at DRX back then when they went downhill just in 2 match (when they lost to OpTic and to ZETA DIVISION). Looking forward to their performance.

The rion thing was because when CR played against IGZ.

Thank you! EDG is really a strong team, I wonder how this LCQ East Asia will go.

Coach, which teams are going to LCQ from CN? EDG and KONE?

It's not guaranteed yet if NTH can get to top 3 by circuit points.

So, NORTHEPTION won 3-1 against ZETA DIVISION today. If Nth can go to at least top 3 in Masters 2, they will guarantee a place in Championship. But if it's below that, ZETA will take the guarantee card. I'm curious about how Nth will go in Masters 2. Who do you think will get the seat in Championship and who will go to East Asia LCQ?

Anyway, congratulations to NORTHEPTION~!

Again, Ascent... it's like Nth and CR need to settle the score in this map, once again.

Yeah, I agree with you. But maybe because of the language barrier, I feel like people are hesitating to watch it when they want to since the production and everything are basically in Japanese. If you like chill discussion, you can join in the Japanese stream chat because they basically aren't as toxic as the other region's stream chat. Still, the language barrier is a thing that you have to overcome if you want to enjoy Japan Valorant.

10,000 seats are occupied, it feels like a concert.

I think it's okay with no duelist comp. as long as they know how to communicate to each other and use their abilities to their advantages.

Expect the unexpected. GGWP both teams!

If Lmemore didn't get that 4K in round 20, it might be a turning point for BME. It was intense and beautiful from Lmemore.

All of the tickets were sold out for the final day. The previous day hasn't been sold out yet.

But they will have a crowd in Japanese scene itself. It will be held in June 25th to 26th 2022 in Saitama Super Arena and approximately they will accommodate to 5,000 seats.

What do you think about no duelist comp? What are the advantages and disadvantages?

RC changed their Ascent and Icebox team comp., unlike 2 days ago. I feel like it's not polished yet but let's see what will happen in the 2nd map since CR themselves aren't unfamiliar with RC's team comp. since they faced against BB in Icebox and BB was using the same team comp. as well.

GGWP!!! I have mix feelings because both teams are so good and to let one go, pains my heart.

Whoever the TBD is, I hope they can have a short rest in this shitty system.

This match isn't disappointing at all. Close match is really amazing to watch. A thing that will make me sad is one of the team will be eliminated after this.

ping diff TT

I felt upset when I watched it, it was like what was FAV doing? Just look at the 1v3 moment, they almost lost it.

He is on LFT status right now, you can see at his tweet here. He's still part of REJECT but he wants to get transferred to another team.

Poor timezone. I felt it too when I watched Masters.

Did I just jinx it? They finally break free from Split? They broke free from Ascent yesterday too. Let's see next map, will it be like last match, where CR miserably got destroyed by Nth? I feel like CR won't get it either because Rion didn't play well in the past 2 maps.

NTH hasn't played against ZETA yet.

Since CR lost one of their best map, they will lose the 2nd map as well because they're really bad in split. GG nt for CR, it will be ZETA vs. Nth later.

BB, you played too well! Everyone is so reliable. 🥰

No, he's been playing for BB since 2020.

BB's execution is really good. Even though there are some mistakes but their execution is just too good against SG, especially their retake. The 1v3 part was a throw because BB wasn't aware the B hall at all. Let's go map 2!

Edit: I want to see Kr1stal's Chamber so bad.

He is on LFT status right now, you can see at his tweet here. He's still part of REJECT but he wants to get transferred to another team.

He is RC's coach. :"D

human sentinel indeed.

PRX f0rsaken, gigachad

Lately I've been seeing no sentinel with double controller (Viper, Brimstone/Omen/Astra), double initiator (Skye, Fade/Sova), and a duelist (mostly Raze). What do you think the "meta" comp in Bind and your opinion with no sentinel in this map?

JDT, if allow and Akame don't pop off in the game, RC is going to win.
RC, if they put takej on duelist other than Reyna, JDT likely will win.

I prefer IGZ/CGZ to go to playoff rather than SG at this point but sadge they were defeated by CR and BB. 🥺

You said what's in my mind about this match.

tbh I was malding when I watched the match earlier (I feel shitty ngl) because it didn't feel like VCT at all lmao. it feels like watching someone's rank streaming. the tension dropped so suddenly after watching ZETA vs. BB's match.

I guess it's okay to have that strat if the other teammates are also backing them up. And of course, the duo should be in zone too, but today it was only something.

FINALLY, ZETA vs. FAV. We didn't have the chance to see them in stage 1 this year and here they are.

Fisker is in zone today, I hope he can keep up the performance because he's known for being inconsistent and his movement is easily read by the enemies as well. Those aces, twice in a row, is just insane!

I think it's just my feeling or whatsoever but SG doesn't have solid strats at all? It's not only in this match but also previous matches as well. They rely heavily on their physicals. Their calls and executions are just bad in my opinion. They played like in unrated or competitive. In this match, Vici didn't pop off, something seemed okay but his play wasn't supported by his teammates at all.

I thought they were going to win the 2nd map but those entries... I don't know what to say anymore. In conclusion, I feel like they were throwing and maybe they will be defeated by BB tomorrow.

Can't wait to see you guys making a blast in the lower bracket! GLHF BB, I'm looking forward to your match tomorrow. <3

This match screams Fisker & Minty vs. something & Vici.

Anytime!

Yeah, I watched their match against EG and it wasn't effective imo.

takej is really strong as duelist but as I can see, it's only his Reyna. His Reyna is just strong but I'm confused on why RC copies OpTic's team comp. in Ascent. Experimenting? I don't know.

In my humble opinion, yes. This is just my opinion when I watched their match against Nth, I felt like his Raze became really passive when CR turned to attack side. But my view can change if neth can polish his Raze in Ascent or maybe Split as well? Because neth's Raze is stronger than Meiy imo.

CR is really strong in Bind to be honest but anything can happen. I'm curious about what will happen.

They make assumption based on their previous games I think, especially when CR played against Nth where CR lost the game. But as I can see, CR perhaps was experimenting their team compositions. I think since it's already the playoff, maybe this is one of the answer.
