They don't suck but they're gonna get touched by PRX so nobody has much faith in their chances past that

They just play a boring style of Valorant and it doesn’t help that they don’t have a star player or someone who stands out so people don’t want to root for them

They play really slow like the slowest which most viewers find boring but its very objective so you might not find it boring but I think it is a very boring way to play (not saying its bad tho)

the thing is they’re all kind’ve stars, leaf is insane, valyn might be one of the best fragger igls in the world, trent is always showing up (aside from last game) Jonahp absolutely shit on TH in that 1v4, but icy is a little bit inconsistent

They get lucky but are bound to fail. Unless this is the year Valyn and JonahP play good consistently, but I highly doubt it.

Not really. By "stars" they mean someone like something, demon1, yay, aspas, etc...

That depends on your definition of "stars" then. I'd say a star is a possible Top 20 itw candidate

i’d say it’s top 10 in the region

Okay. What would your top 10 for America's be? The only G2 player I see even having a shot would be leaf, but even then he'd have to be playing amazing

leaf is easily there, and trent when his brain is on is the best initiator in the region

A star player is a player that is consistent and can carry a team if needed for FUT it is cNed for Lev it is aspas for 100T is is Cryo etc

Some teams might have more than one star player like FNC and PRX

G2 don’t really have a player like that Leaf is the closest but he is too inconsistent

Trent??? Blud is the 4th lowest rated player this event and even then has 0 impact in the game

trent was playing pretty good in stage one. he isn't the star fragger or anything but he's good. hasn't shown up here yet but just you wait

(some games where he popped off include https://www.vlr.gg/314628/g2-esports-vs-100-thieves-champions-tour-2024-americas-stage-1-w2 even tho they lost, https://www.vlr.gg/337407/cloud9-vs-g2-esports-champions-tour-2024-americas-stage-1-ko, and some others)

they never won convincingly
their playstyle is super slow with text book strats

they're good. but the only positive i can think about them is how they can maintain their confidence (by shooting bodies)

I think they were the weakest team to qual for playoff because they won against t1 (free win that they struggled) and the match vs TH they haven't scrim with the roster enough and still needed 5+ 1vx clutches to win on split

uh TH and FUT exist. Both qualified by beating the China teams and G2 confidently beat TH

Did you not read the TH part of not having played enough with the roster? Also Fpx > G2 imo and FUT literally beat Lev who is NA

How does TH having a new roster change anything? Their current team is all that matters. Also LEV is not NA 💀

The TH that 2-1ed FPX would not drop a map against G2, it’s just that they barely had any practice before their game with them.

Don't think they are bad. They are winning but don't look as good as past teams that won looked so I guess there's some doubt

is G2 worse than TH ? Nah. i dont think so. Ppl thinks they will shit this time but they find always to a new way and They have good chemistry tbh. i think Prx will win 2-0 but i dont understand why G2 is so underresimated by ppl. if they said at the beginning of the year that LEV would be eliminated and G2 would be in the last 8, would you believe it?

they heavily rely on a system, disrupt that system and they can break unlike the other teams that have individuals who can thrive in chaotic situations
