Will we ever see an ASTRALIS ERA in Valorant?
s1mple is great but you could argue that he isn't even the goat of the counter-strike franchise, let alone esports
my man living in 2012. s1mple by far the goat of csgo. However he's no where near the level faker is with being the most recognisable esports player.
Saying it could be argued that s1mple isn't the goat of cs, but forest instead?
I agree that s1mple isn't close to being the goat of esports. That part with faker was in agreement with you. However it can't be argued with cs. No player has ever been as consistent and dominant as he has. Some have had the same peaks, but never the same consistency.
Possible but hard to say. I think its still possible even with the meta changes. CSGO meta changes as well (even if it isnt as drastic) and Astralis took it to next level.
unironically maybe? Astralis spent a lot of time choking in semifinals before they became the goats of CS.
they need to pick k1ng and get rid of zest and rb first (maybe buzz too)
+foxy9 +k1ng +Lakia
k1ng and lakia are good but they werent as good when they were at this roster, their playstyle is too different tbh.
well it was more like 3, -karrigan -cajunb +gla1ve +kjaerbye. and then -kjaerbye +magisk but they truly stopped choking in 2017, not 2018
yeah you are probably right.
they were actually winning events with kjaerbye.
the results with karrigan were more on the same level as drx
though the -kjaerbye +magisk created the astralis era.
DRX/VS in Korea, in the beginning of valo, was it fr. But as far as international events go, I could see Loud & Navi as two contenders.
Not enough tournaments to have an astralis era
To reach their status they would have to win multiple
masters plus multiple champions events which seems impossible really
australians? pretty sure they already play the game buddy they even have a vcl right now :D
As theres too many changes on meta i dont see a team dominating, but having a top 5-6 that is really consistent to place high
