did GENG fluke their entire year?

I mean obviously not, but like how do you justify such a disaster of a disappointment that it honestly makes me gag. Champs favorites getting grouped by some 4th seed team that didn’t even make it past groups in stage 1 holy shit. Hoooly dogshit.

The loss needs investigation if I’m gonna be honest, like I think it’s pretty obvious that zekken got forced back to consuming his drugs for example (which is kinda sad).

same principle tho. incredible team that was considered top 3 and the general consensus was that they would make it out of groups and didn't.

GENG had higher expectations from their results and the tourneys they played in. PRX 2022 was similar but GENG’s flop is like twice as worse

I mean of course this is gonna be way worse than what has ever happened in val because we've never seen a tournament favorite get grouped but it's that same principle on a crazier scale,

they looked shaky since the heretics game, this is kind of similar to fnatics downfall. Also geng literally had the best map veto they can hope for, they had sen's perma ban, your 2nd best map, and a map that you previously stomped sentinels on. I think they might be having some burn out from playing almost every week this season. (also similar to fnatic last year)

they had almost no break the entire season and honestly, SEN and TH was just better. GENG needs a rest tbh. Munchkin said they were all really tired even before the champs began.

geng had an incredible year man they went 7-4 internationally which is ridiculously hard to do and only lost internationally to the other masters finalist teams of the year
they are very very good, just got paired against the other best teams

I dont think they were a fluke team. To have top 2 finishes throughout the season up to champs should be an indicator on how they were as a team. Just dissapointing that this is the end.

me, an enlightened valorant enjoyer: both teams were very competitive and played well!! sometimes even great teams have a bad game at times. That's ok! when two good teams play each other, there can only be one winner. Good luck next time! GGs to all!

bruh the group had SEN who won madrid, Heretics who came 2nd in shanghai and GENG. anyone could make it through
This coming from a SEN fan, I had faith SEN was stronger than heretics but that GENG lost to Heretics is on them.

Sunny from vlr.gg I’m sorry to inform you but none of that changes the fact that GENG got grouped by the 4th seed of Americas that has been disappointing themselves from the start of split 1 up until their match vs FPX

bro the seed shit doesnt matter. SEN has played great all year and they have a masters title this year
What matters is how u do in the tournament itself and SEN beating GENG is not an upset. Heretics beating GENG was tbh imo

lmfao ur the one delusional if u think SEN hasnt played well all year.
They failed to qualify for 1/3 international tournament this year
The first one they made it to they won at madrid and now they are at champs and beat GENG who was everyones top rated team. Just keep coping lmao

When we win champs I wanna see u cry about it too

you’re delusional if u think SEN hasn’t played well all year

grouped in stage 1 and bombed out of stage 2 playoffs. They are the 4th seed brother, the fact that you even think TH beating GENG is an upset but SEN isn’t shows how stupid as fuck u are ngl. I think we gotta wrap it up.

yeah cus heretics has not won anything yet and they did not do any better than SEN in groups in they're own region
Lets not forget kickoff happened and they put all ur favorite teams in the dirt and won it and then won madrid

Staying on top is hard no team has consistently done it yet, even fnatic are bums struggling to win against KRU who SEN would dominate. Just cope harder, seeds doesnt matter im glad they got this group. lets wrap it up fr
