hey guys does anyone think v1 qualified from na because they were ahead of the meta (astra-viper)????

(if u think i hate v1 coz i'm a c9 fan it's wrong i accept the fact that u were a better team than us in every aspect)

I think Vanity has to be one of the fastest adapting igl's in NA by far, whatever is good he will use he doesn't care how cheesy or broken it may be.

although that is a reason, i still think they will perform well in na, i feel like the experience at lan will make them way better

This such a stupid argument because this game is constantly evolving and the best teams are the ones who are able to take advantage of meta changes the fastest

yes. vanity diff. he will always be ahead of meta, which is why any team with him in will be good

I think part of the reason they qualified is like you said, ahead of the meta. I also think they flew under the radar a bit and peaked at the perfect time.

Though in saying that. Even as a V1 fan, I will be very surprised if they make it to Berlin. While I don’t think it was luck that they qualified to Iceland. They beat the teams put in front of them. But there was a lot of upsets in NA during challengers. When I look at SEN, C9, 100T, FaZe, Envy, and even teams like GenG. It’s hard for me to put V1 as a consistent top 3 team in NA. Then you have the teams like T1 and TSM that if they get their roles figured out, can be dangerous as the roster on paper is better than they’ve performed. Like I think there’s even a world SEN don’t qualify for Berlin, let alone V1. A C9, 100T, Faze or Envy in no order being the teams to go to Iceland is a very real possibility. They’ve all taken maps off each other in the past. No reason it can’t happen again.

Now I want V1 to make it to Berlin with Whippie to see how they can do on the international space with their true roster. While Jammyz was ok, Whippie looked just better IMO. If V1 wants to improve though, they need to work on OT strategies, every game that went to OT they lost. It cost them huge in the NUTURN match, and could have cost them the Team Liquid match too. Maybe just having Whippie on the teams fixes those issues.

I personally think the 3 strongest teams in NA are Sentinels, 100T and C9 (basing this off how well C9 did with a new roster on such short preparation time. Would not surprise me if they become NA’s best team going into Berlin.) And if C9 fail to live up to expectations many people have, throw a FaZe in the 3rd spot.

I would love it if both SEN and 100T make to Berlin. Because there’s already a rivalry between the two teams because of past CSGO history. Would be entertaining and good for the NA scene to have both teams take blows from one another. So even though I don’t really cheer for 100T, I want them to do well because of the entertainment factor. Would love if V1 got that 3rd spot. But for some reason I just have a bad feeling. Hope my boi Penny can show up again at a Major.

i think so, but tbh, i felt it was also because V1 play hella aggro, but they can flip the switch and play way more tactical too, so ig its hard to assume what they have in mind
