What? Have you really been watching Asuna? he plays all 4 duelists (not including Yoru of course) for 100T and he's been doing that really well for a minute now. His jett's fine. They need it on Haven for the anti-rush and picks cuz there are 3 sites to defend.

What 100T needs is for the rest of the team to step up because Haven is hard to carry individually. It's too bad Ethan had a bad time.

He's doing really well on Jett. He hits the majority of his shots and an Op in Haven is really good on def since it has 3 sites to defend. He frags less, but the impact is undeniable. Not everything is about individual kills in a team game.

where is this podcast & what's it called? idk what to search for or where

very very true. But this time, there's no crazy meta change (except K/O) standing in their way, so I'm hopeful!

nobody's at 100% anymore

Looks like it. But that's fine. That means they qual for the playoffs as expected. I predict a 2-1 Sen

This is such a good series. Thanks!

EZ PZ

How about you give Shahzam a break? he's human and like everyone, will underperform sometimes. Are you trollin? hmm

LMAO

Sen hasn't lost yet... There's still a lower bracket

People need to remember that Sen had to fight to get to Masters 2 and almost lost multiple times to teams like T1 (when sick dropped 35) and ABX.

If SEN wanted to, they could have chosen to sit out Berlin since they already qualified for Champions, but they know they're not perfect, and if they don't keep up, they'll get left behind.

You know... Even tho I had Sen beating 100T on my pickems, I'm changing my mind. 100T almost beat them in stage 2 and now they're doing even better and have worked on their lack of adaptation.

At their best, 100T can 2-0 even Sentinels.

EDIT: nvm. Even XSET can beat SEN lmao

Envy 2-0 GenG. I don't think it's Envy's time to choke yet.

this thread should be nuked by mods.

I'm happy. Even tho job's not done, remember that 100T was only 1 round away from both their losses in the stage 2 playoffs. I really feel like their fear of adaptation has been worked on during the last 2 months. Now, their perfect mix of old talent and fresh blood will finally be unleashed and we're going to FUCKING BERLIN BOYSS!

Bro, imagine the chaos in NA if this actually happens!

I don't think Victor could've diffused the spike either. RTS Victoria was subbing in, unlucky really.

I won't be so bold to say 100T 2-0 this time, but I wanna believe :(

:D

you doubted the 2-0. Sadge

Asuna on Wyatt's stream said it was actually V1 Wippie who was crashing frequently

ignore him. Keep it up, it's a slow grind for most people but if you believe you can get better, you will. Just gotta put in the practice.

I would say at your level to get a coach if you're serious since there's probably a lot to work on and they can better help you get specific prac in to work on each deficits you have.

Yall are doing so much work, holy. We appreciate yall

??? why did I click on this obvious bait

Fnatic 2-1 Guild. but probably 2-0 tbh

that's... not how that works lol

Come on. TSM hasn't qualified for a SINGLE playoffs/regional finals in all of 2021. I know you're a fan, but don't let the brand bias fool you.

In all seriousness, they're dead center at T2 right now, and that's being generous. T1 teams are teams that can strongly compete and even potentially make it to a major event/masters. That's not even close to TSM right now since they can barely get out of opens and haven't even been able to make it to the playoff qualifiers for major tournaments. The 2 out of 6 main events they've made it in so far, they were knocked out immediately.

By performance alone, they're not Tier 1. That would be the top 8-10 or so who can more or less consistently make top 8 qualifiers for majors.

At this stage, I think it's by community vote (the participating teams rank their preferred maps pre-tourney)? I might be wrong tho.

This 8-team bracket from this past weekend's open qualifier will fight in the main event for challengers 1 later this week, where the top 4 here will be qualifying to the NA challenger playoffs (which is the NA qualifier for Berlin). The top 4 from opens 2/main event 2 in like 2-3 weeks will also qualify for the NA playoffs where the top 3 from the playoffs go to Berlin to rep NA.

damn, that's a HOT hot take

100T vs Envy, 2-1

100T vs Sen, 3-1

100T 2-0 cuz no one else believes

i would love to see another Sen lower bracket run

Sen 2-0 yall gotta stop playing

In an ideal world, this is the one.

good take

I'm really bad at bets. But a broken clock is right twice a day. Maybe this is my time

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/6cde73d3

YOOOOOOO what is with the thesis? is it that deep? I can't tell cuz I ain't reading all that.

Hot take: Sen vs 100T

it's just 1 map. I'll reserve the laughing at the end of the bo3. if they lose, oh boy, Laugh I shall

Not yet. we need a little more consistency and they need to actually BEAT other T1 teams so we can consider them serious contenders for Masters. That's what it means to be Tier 1

No way Sen didn't do prep after upsets like andbox and BBG. They always do their homework.

tier 9? lmaoooo I'm not gonna argue with you

they're individually better than most teams and play super well together. their chemistry is unmatched and mental is strong. Even if they're not my fav team, can't deny they're the best team right now
