EU feels stronger but why is there no consistent top 1 or top 2 team
While I think EU has a better Top 5. I think the distance between SEN and the rest is smaller than what a lot of people here think. SEN is no where near unbeatable against NA teams. Also that top 5 above is missing C9, which has a very good chance after the showing they did in challengers when the team had been together for like a week to take the fight to SEN and take the number 1 NA spot in a couple months C9 in challengers beat SEN on Split 13-1. 100T, Faze, NV, C9 can beat SEN on any given day without much surprise. Yeah SEN would be favoured, but not like massively. 100T 13-3 SEN on Icebox before going down 2-1.
If C9 lives up to expectations. The Top 5 of NA could honestly be scary with multiple teams being in the fight for number 1. Like a world exists where SEN fails to make it to Berlin and it's not some crazy thing. V1 with Whippie is also just straight up a better team that went to Iceland. If teams like T1 and TSM finally get some sense of direction, they are a team that could break into the top 5, as the talent is there. That one might be asking too much with recent events going on lol.
Just wanted to say this as it seems a large portion of this site thinks SEN is some king of NA, and that it's SEN a large gap, then the rest of NA. And while they certainly are the current best, they can be beat. Even as a SEN fan, this Challengers scares me. It wouldn't really matter for Champions as they're qualified. But some combination of 100T, C9, Envy, Faze, V1 or some underdog like what V1 was can take up those Berlin spots and it's a very real possibility.
V1 is the team I literally cheer for, and while I think they deserve their number 2 spot when they have Whippie. I don't expect them to hold onto the Top 3 with the teams that stayed behind having something to prove. But I guess it's all talk until we see which teams go to Berlin from NA.
Vlr ranking is based on circuit points. It's the same rank & point where valorant will choose teams in each region to participate in VCT Champions.
Teams get point by play/get high rank in the recent tourney every season.
So this is legit ranking, but not valid for recent changes. Especially in EU where rooster changed so much.
Hate it or love it, this is the standing.
nah, imt and faze are going to lag behind 100%, and I'm a faze fan. 100t is up there, but..... I don't see them doing anything to get better and remotely have a chance to catch up to top 5 NA.
As far as TSM goes, they benched Brax. If they benched him, Something odd must be going on in this org, and I don't think it's a good thing.
Hey! Since you copied the VLR stats for us in this very useful thread, i have copied a Pancake recipe for you as well. Hope you will enjoy it!
STEP 1
Put 100g plain flour, 2 large eggs, 300ml milk, 1 tbsp sunflower or vegetable oil and a pinch of salt into a bowl or large jug, then whisk to a smooth batter.
STEP 2
Set aside for 30 mins to rest if you have time, or start cooking straight away.
STEP 3
Set a medium frying pan or crêpe pan over a medium heat and carefully wipe it with some oiled kitchen paper.
STEP 4
When hot, cook your pancakes for 1 min on each side until golden, keeping them warm in a low oven as you go.
STEP 5
Serve with lemon wedges and caster sugar, or your favourite filling. Once cold, you can layer the pancakes between baking parchment, then wrap in cling film and freeze for up to 2 months.
