I feel like everyone is ranking one team in comparison to other, this player to that player, and kangkang is just gonna come in and diff the living shit out of every player like champs and edg wins kickoff, is this too hot of a take

yes its a hot take because ur on an english speaking site and people don't want to accept that edg is one of the best teams itw

no because the champs winners are back in champs winners form

Edg already won kickoff? Also kangkang alone can't diff just any player alone. And edg has shown they can be inconsistent so for Bangkok I can see them not do much damage. I think they will get better later on. Also such overhyping posts just creates hate for kk or edg. So don't do it next time.

Yeah my bad I meant Bangkok not kickoff, also sorry if it felt I was overhyping, I genuinely had those thoughts and I still think kk has that potential to do the damage

ok EDG won one trophy. let me tell u why all the CN dickriders are acutally 10 IQ. Every assumes that CN is only going to get better compared to other regions. well, its just flase. not true at all whatsoever! so CN talking so much shit when they are one team region one player region one trophy region is jsut funny to see because they will be put back in their place soon, i will come back to shit talk CN fans after they get embareassed in Bangcock

EDG are good but they've had their time to shine.
They're lucky that 2024 was a weak year for VCT overall. But hey, everyone's got an opinion so we'll just have to see what Kickoff brings

how was 2024 a weak year? the only argument being regions having low level in kickoff and masters 1 not being that much better but afterwards it was really good

2024 has been the best valorant weve seen yet. Only like 2023 EG and fnatic are comparable and both teams wouldnt top 3 level imo

im sorry but you just have a bias towards older teams. every year the game is getting more and more figured out and the better teams get.

this is also low level bait. there is 0 chance you think 2021 or 2022 teams were anywhere near this level. prime 2021 sen/gambit/acend would get washed out and lose to any mid table team. Like lasts years Navi would completely wipe those teams. they'd be lucky to get 13 rounds combined

ive lived in australia for 9 months, I hold an african passport, my favorite league is emea, my favourite player oat is nats, my favourite team oat is gambit. Why on earth would I be bias to a year where emea didnt win anything. If anything I should be claiming 2023 and 2021 had the highest level of play

Why do people discredit EDG's champs win so much? They've shown that they're capable of shooting for the stars after bringing on S1mon, and they've performed on the biggest stage. I think that purely attributing it to luck is disrespectful to the caliber of team that they've shown to be.

#29

the one legit reason is because theyve only shown the form once, so people wanna doubt it. The other dumb reason is because people still view china as weaker than the rest

bruh has any team won 2 tournaments in a row? never official tournaments. only off season tournament + an official tournament

SEN Afreeca TV tourny + master madrid
FNC lock in + masters tokyo

since no team win 2 official tournaments in a row, of course we doubt EDG its just dellusional chinese nationalistes who think they gonna win

A team doesnt have to win two events. for example both geng and heretics did very well at two events. EDG did it at one, so people wanna doubt it and they pretty much ghosted the full year. If EDG do well at bangkok (top 3) I suspect much more people will believe in EDG and call the champs run legit. If EDG bomb out, people are 100% calling the run a fluke

I know that for the reason you've mentioned, people are going to continue discrediting my point here, but EDG has literally won 32 rounds in a row during kickoff, so like, they've carried the form over.

I agree, but we need to see them replicate this in bangkok before we judge anything

I think that if they get a top four/top three finish or two, people will definitely start to respect them more (by which I mean continue calling CN a one team region). I just want to see Trace perform.

yeah absolutely, If trace can make top 4, people will be speechless lol

I think that simply saying that is rather delusional. I say this exactly BECAUSE I can see. Best team at champs, and since then they've broken the record for the most rounds won in a row against a much improved China region. They literally won 32 rounds in a row on all maps (including 26 on Haven). If you're unable to see why they truly are a solid team that should be challenging for internationals, then damn...

just because kangkang is gonna diff everyone doesnt mean EDG will win
https://www.vlr.gg/312797/edward-gaming-vs-gen-g-champions-tour-2024-masters-madrid-swiss-stage-r2

Everyone in EDG needs to be in top form to pull of a victory

not the same EDG AT ALL, changing igl + S1mon is a huge difference compared to madrid, thats why they won so much afterwards

It is a huge difference, I agree. but op's argument cant be "kk solos" its proven to not work. EDG need to adapt to the new meta well and they need to be in top form

TBH EDG won champs because of chichoo and idk who else just started hitting shots imo, and ofc kangkang carrying them as always, no strates just hitting insane shots and thats why we saw that EDG can be inconsistent imo

this is not 2021 mate. you cant just shoot. literally watch any, and I mean any person (who is qualified) \analyse the EDG games. all of the tell you that EDG played an extremely well macro game. Yes EDG have shooters but so does every winning team. If shooting was all that was required to be good, EDG shouldve won tokyo. but they didnt. why? because their macro wasnt good enough

bro you do NOT beat a few of the best teams in the world just by shooting a little good. you do NOT have 3 different maps with 100% wr just by shooting a little good
