I considered NRG, but to me they seemed decent enough by the end of the year.

(compared to 2024, my opinion)
AMERICAS: C9 - So much of the t2 talent pool is ripe for the picking, I think if C9 makes more moves like oxy they'll find massive success
EMEA: VIT - even considering the good domestic results, I think they have HUGE room to grow
PAC: TLN
CN: FPX - I don't really watch china and they're really the only other team I know besides EDG and BLG

Who would you have?

honestly this works for me to a less extreme extent. I find my self aiming way better if there's VCT matches going on

Thank you, you too number1_cNed_fan :D

listen ill be ready to dunk on SEN for any valid reason
but this is not that deep 😭

sounds about right
do you have the stats

nah 💀💀💀

This really helped me, and might not work for you. But instead of trying to 'aim' I just started focusing on holding. Instead of thinking that aim is something that you actively do, think of it like trying to catch eggs in a basket, making sure the enemy comes into your crosshair instead of moving towards the enemies head. This might just be all non sensical yap that only makes sense to me but at the bare minimum I have the stats to say I'm not completely schizo

(Also I'm lower rank than you so I could just be waffling)

I also kind of forced my self to never hit the body, even if it was easier or if it would get me the kill. If I had to spray to kill the body I would just let the enemy kill me. (Now this might be considered trolling since it's probably at the expense of your team, but long term it really helped me discipline on to the head)

3 Coaches isn't uncommon, HC, AC and analyst are all what I would consider 'coaching positions'. Sure there will be a downgrade in the IGLing, but sometimes you just have to make short term sacrifices (again, going back to the Haodong example). If Boaster truly feels like this route is worse for the team, then I trust in the process.

Boaster (Will full respect, and no intent to hate): What do you make of the criticism against your fragging abilities?, now knowing that EDG literally went on a tournament winning run after moving Haodong from the line-up to a coaching position, do you not (and if not why) see this as the optimal route for fnatic going forward, especially because we have a very rare opportunity in hiro.

I try stay humble but get carried away at times, but in general I try and stick by this: “Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”

TW: British person

😭😭😭

if stake sponsor c9 it will probably not include valorant

part 3 felt boring while i was watching it, but looking back it was pretty good. part 6 is the only boring part imo

I think 1 champs = 1.5 masters is a solid comparison

all I remember is KK was using the champs vandal 23 at some point

noooo 😭😭😭
there goes having MENA in tier 1 EMEA (at least for now)

aged like a nuclear reactor

yeah you climbed back up

holy crap from plat to silver
ranked reset hit you hard

spoken like a real freak in the sheets (excel sheets)

banned again? damn they must have some vendetta against you

I agree with what you're saying.
but the way you've formatted this makes u look schizo

also its a crime you just left scream out to dry like that, did you not see his igl masterclass in 2023

what could go wrong

almost completely unrelated.

but who tf are 'the esports awards' never heard of these mfs in my life, they seem like some irrelevant organisation tryna be the next oscars

From my experience the human side wasn't that bad, but in our curriculum we had to learn about plants, it was like 50% of our course, that shit wanted to make me plant a fucking [redacted].
For legal reasons thats a joke. but plant biology was really annoying. Ain't no one becoming a plantologist or whatever

top 20 feelings

damn, in London we're getting lucky if we even get below 20 during the day

14??? where in England are you bro

ok, then yeah I agree

Is this for all tier 1 teams or just the international performances?

whats gotten davai up there? (i didnt watch a lot of pacific regular season)

idk, it just seems like a pointless comparison to make. there was only 1 event in between copenhagen and sao paulo, also days is a flawed metric for this because it counts days in the off season

ok 👌👍

me?

jabbing at emea is fine
but why are we just disregarding fnatic?

woah woah woah
allat
respect for the effort though

good on you... chunky 😁

LMFAO

done reading, I thought it was about the sentinels team. I am a bit disappointed

holy crap thats cooking

People write off a 4th place position as nothing. It's probably affected by the sheer number of SEN fans, but SEN gets way more hype for winning madrid and coming 4th, than FNC did for winning back to back then placing 4th

idk 4/6 players + coach on LEV aren't from NA
The FNC game was close, and there was no clear favourite beforehand. So you can't really say they are better (as a team, not talking about champs performance only)

Overall I think at the highest level NA and EMEA are similar, but NA's middle of the pack teams are probably better than EMEA's

we?

It's a scouting issue not really a talent issue. FNC have been so good because of their ability to scout players like Alfajer and hiro. Even derke back in the day. When EMEA scouting catches up, EMEA will catch up to AMER I think. Another great example is heretics this year, they benefitted so much from actually pulling from the t2 pool

probably money, and maybe VIT have secured bonkar

would be a glowup for sure

cool, opens up the opportunity for VIT bonkar

baby dont hurt me
