The two teams from the last Grand final facing each other in a group stage lower. This championship format is pathetic LMAO

Optic's fault for losing in the NA challengers grand finals maybe if they won we wouldn't be in this situation
It kind of makes sense tho no? OpTic placed 2nd in NA (A), FPX placed 2nd in EMEA (B), and then you have DRX 1st and BR 1st (unless they are counted as SA with Leviatan). OpTic's fault they didn't place 1st and LOUD just got unlucky because of format.
You don't understand what I mean, I'm saying that they should at least have some kind of head start from the championship as a whole based on the past championship, and not leave the champion and vice champion in the group stage
Eh, I don't agree. Their reward for winning the last masters was qualifying for Champions. They lost in the NA finals to XSET which made them go to the group stage instead of straight to playoffs as XSET did. It wouldn't be fair for them to go straight to playoffs in the next Masters JUST because they won the previous one.
I understand your point, I agree and disagree with some parts, anyway, it's hard for riot to change something
no problem with this format, Loud and Optic should have just won if they were really better
it's just what I always knew
Latam and Br level overcame NA and EMEA
Loud will easily win Optic and then guild
KRU and Loud will qual
This is Valorant. Past results hold little weight.
GG guild, they were fucking awesome
Exactly history has shown winning the previous Masters doesn't mean shit when the next one comes along.
LMAO so what ? If optic or loud were good and ready on the day one of them would have won and avoided this.
The valorant meta changes and the best players are good in every meta. You can see Yay stats as a example and compare with the last meta.
Both teams get beaten fairly convincingly, but yeah no it's the format not the team.
this all happened because for some reason the 2nd seed of LATAM/BRAZIL determines which 1st seed starts off in the playoffs lol. should've made LOUD and LEV face off for playoff spot
