- EVERY TEAM IS POPPING OFF
- SO MANY COMEBACKS
- MINOR REGION STEPPING UP
- NA LOSING (OVERCONFIDENCE)
WHEN I SAW THE CHAMPIONS FORMAT, I NEVER THOUGHT IT'D BE SO INTERESTING
I've never been this interested in a group stage. From the incredible skill displayed in unexpectedly great matchups: Fnatic vs VS, C9 vs VS, and Liquid vs Sen to name a few.
To the absolute shitshow motivating me to watch the minor regions - #justiceforkeyd. What I didn't expect is genuinely good play from these minor regions. Even Brazil, despite being mald inducing on social media, showed great Valorant play. The initial Keyd vs Acend upset was fantastic, although sadly tainted by the actions of their fans. Secret's great play against Gambit, and X10's current game against Keyd is amazing.
Already, it's been amazing. I can only imagine how it will be in the playoff stage. And, possibly a Worlds-esque opening ceremony for the final!?
