Am i tripping
they are, but t2 just isnt a thing anymore on vlr, you have to find the event thru the tab and not matches. also, pretty much no stream coverage apparently.
Are they fighting for ascension
They would first need to qualify for mainstage, and then also first win any of the splits to prove they are good enough for Ascension
no
There's no stream cuz its not mainstage
They're trying to make it into tier 2 (VCL NA) so yeah, they indeed are. Why not use the invite you got
If they want to they need to win their next 2 games to qualify for the swiss stage
most of the top gc teams do (aka liquid and mibr besides sr, idk about g2 but i would assume so)
