if only 2 teams being really good means top heavy then that's every region right now lol
also Sen could get out of this funk

I mean KRU looked very bad today, at least 100T put up somewhat of a fight on their own map pick

easily overcooked

They also beat TH 2 times before that, it's hard to beat any team that many times in quick succession

yes I know this, but the way SolarX said "top 8 in champs" confused me, I thought if you make champs you avoid relegation since you got top 4 in your region.

they can, but I feel like odds are low right now ngl

finally people having respect on G2's name

I thought they just had to make champs? its top 8 in champs?

Last year as The Guard

I think they have a decent shot, they are only on a upward trend

Anyone worried about groups at Champs for Sen since they got 4th seed or are we thinking seeds don't matter much?

G2 on top

I don't care if they were hiding strats that still was rough. hopefully they hit form for champs. last 2 matches have looked rough

Regional Trophy*

I hope for the sake of your mental that they don't miss out on champs 🙏🙏

Do you always get this mad when Sen lose?

yes but it's very small and very unlikely, but just beat 100T and they are good

YIKES

Too bad no NRG vs Bilibili

Bro was sleeping today

GET EM OUT

No if Sen lose vs 100T and then Lev don't qualify for champs Sen is out.

1 win for G2 to make it to Champs lets goooo

I hope these boys don't make champs 😂😂😂
Icy eating Zekken for breakfast.

(I actually really like Sen but I hate Sen's VLR fans)

LOL I love this guy

I agree but they also beat Heretics twice before that match up, it's hard to beat a team that many times in such a short period of time. In any sport its hard tbh

yes they could, but if Lev also didn't qualify and SEN lose first round I think Lev beats them on points.

Fair enough, to each their own. I personally like watching the underdog teams or the teams that just have great fundamentals do well. Good team work is my favorite to watch. I really enjoyed KC early season because of how well they play off each other and the team work, bummer they have fallen off since Madrid

Pretty sure winner will get second seed and the bye for playoffs (unless C9 win their next 2 games). its gonna be a incredible series.

If he takes space then dies, and they trade Zekken at the same time I would be very happy with that.

I won't, it should be a fantastic series to end the VCT Americas season

Icy is a selfless duelist taking space and willing to get traded. Ain't no stats duelist

For being a Ascension team and making top 3 at their first international event is pretty great. The Guard core have been there before but its been so long its still very impressive. I think they only have room to improve

I agree with post so much, you can see how much the "only support the duelist" archetype of a team works, Oxy is insane but once you understand you only have to shut him down it becomes so much easier to beat a team like that. C9 have been struggling this split since they have had tougher opponents who are able to anti strat better vs them

Don't disrespect the Guard core.

He is filling his role well, sometimes showing up big, it would be nice if he had a bit more firepower to him sometimes.

Whatever works

Love or hate em, maybe you think they are boring to watch or they don't have the flashiest players or style, all of that might even be true. But their ability to make comebacks and stay cool in rough spots is incredible, this team is so resilient.

NaVi is not looking any better

Good ole days

would've loved to see how this team would've done this year.

If they are that bad yes, you made horrible off season adjustments or and you shouldn't make champs,
as I said in my post below though the Valorant season is just wayyy too short so I understand why it sucks for some teams. maybe next years format with 12 teams will be better. Longer season and maybe more games? idk

Don't lose 5 games in a row then, I don't think that is unfair. You just aren't meant to make Champs this year then.

Personally as a viewer LCQ is super fun, but overall I think it is a bad format. the Idea of a team barely missing playoffs and then MIBR having a crazy LCQ and making Champs sucks, you should have to be at least consistently decent all year to have a chance at making champs.

I think the Valorant season is wayyyyyyyy too short though, crazy we are almost already at the final tournament of the year, and the off season being 6 months long is so dreadful, I personally don't know how to fix it but I think something needs to change. obviously most likely Riot just doesn't want to spend more money on a longer season.

For the two best Americas teams to play, great way to end the regular season.

G2 on top

100T

All they needed is 1 map win, they are going to win out for the rest of the season

Who let bro out of the mental institution?

Explain how NRG, KRU and LOUD are above them?

They've beat KRU 3 times this year, NRG is exploding in front of our eyes and LOUD hasn't been the same since Aspas left.
