we need double elimination format
so many underdog stories can happen in lower bracket
Nah bro, If you're a good team a minor team will study you, if you're a good team you don't have a chance to study a minor team because you're focusing in a good teams, so you will get slapped by a minor team because you're not expecting, that's what happened here.
FURIA studied well SEN (almost win) but lose to a way more worse team because they didn't studied them enough
It's not CS
Valorant still not evolved like CS level to this be true.
Right now most of games are trying to counter enemy by picks, strats, etc.
CS if you're superior you don't even need to think to win against a bad team because you already mastered the fundamentals of the game (in Valorant nobody mastered anything yet)
Yeah that's why I said it.
VALORANT changed meta, buffs, nerf, so many things also some good teams had very big ego during champions (Shah denied scrimming with KRU, KRU coach had to beg to him and he only accepted to scrim ONE MAP) Now he's even posting in twitter "Wow Kru is good" lol.
As you can see top teams didn't studied minor teams because thought they could win only by skill but minor teams studied hard so good teams got slapped, that's what happened.
