FPX ?

Only 4 champions league for Messi, so yeah, maybe he one that can sit as his table but theya re not that mush. (But he is close enough to sit at his tabel, but not because of success because of aura)
I don't know Cricket, maybe he can sit at Faker's table.

I'm not saying that Faker is the most dominant people a sport/esport ever know, i'm just saying they are not a lot of people that can sit as it table.

You are american, in other country we don't really have school tournament, so no it's not that accessible.

League is the sport everyone can play easily without moving whenever they want. SO mush less barrier than traditional sport.

If you can name any player that make 7 final in 12 years, or win 5 world in 12 years he can sit at Faker table

Playing competitive sport need more investment, you have to go to a specific place regularly (if you have one in your city), pay money. Lot of sport are really inaccessible beside football, the paradox is that in LoL a lot play ranked but doesn't care about esport while in Rugby it's the contrary, I would be surprises if more than 2 other sport would beat LoL in term of people playing competitive.

Ranked count as competition, even in Iron.

According to my last statement it depends.

I think not a lot of people are running in competition so, League is harder :/
Except football, I doubt any sport beat LoL in term of people doing comp

It depends how you see it, Val/CS make you master only one mecanic (shoot) and his derivate, while LoL have a variety of a different mechanics with soon 200 champ...

But "hard" is a hard way to define, in my POV the hardest game is the game you have to beat the most people of. So yeah, LoL is the hardest game in the world with football, because to be the best you have to beat more people

Thanks a lot ^-^

It's weird to choose Chengdu over Chongqing since they seems to develop this city

I think Neon and Cypher will disapear in the future, especially Cyph

This makes absolutely no sense why should we forced to play Vyze with another Sentinel if 0 sentinel composition are already good and played.

Well let's see all the possibility, every team ave a duelist, a reveal and controller, if you have a Vise you have 4 possibility

• Another sentinel : I'm mad at this idea but it seems 0 sentinel > 2 sentinel > 1 sentinel, so i'll stay open minded.
• Another initiator : It's weird, I'm conflicted, I understand the idea of making her full sentinel and consider her flash isn't strong in atk, and you still need 2 ini to enter
• Another duelist : Well, doble duelist are kinda strong in Ascent and Haven (Weirdly), so it may be a good idea, especially run with an Iso and a Diver
• Another controller : Absolutely bae

Why god people whant to play another Sentinel plus Vyze...
Vyze is strong because she allow you doble controller without sacrificing the Flash, doble controller is OP !

It's really hard to guess what the team will pick. I really do think pro team play what is strong but what they are confident with :/

I think it is

You know that one of the most know Valorant pro clip was with Harbor on Pearl

But T.T I have no data for Pearl and Fracture :c

I wait to finish the other map on the mapool, I'll make a video on Pearl and Fracture when I finish my "Timeline map per map"

Really ?? Thanks a lot !

Too early to say, beside Unisgned that was really close, they didn't play good team yet, the game against ZOL will be a good test.

I'm sick this week, sorry guys, but you still can't read, so I try to speak, but it will be even more hard to understand what I say...

This week I try to analysis meta on Haven with a blocked nose and a duck voice.
tldr ;

• Sova is OP
• Astra will be broken
• Double duelist strong
• Usual meta is sus

You can vote for the next proplaymap, most vote will be next (No, TDM map doesn't count :c)

It can always go higher

Thanks for your post.

(If G2 win it would be great for ascention image)

Yeah thats the problem SEA is stacked while Japan isnt really :/

I still hope SEA will split in 2, but I suppose it will not gonna hpn

Duck liver mousse with bread.

Not really a good example, they get also stomped by KRU Blaze
https://www.vlr.gg/381311

I agree GC are for from top of T2, but they are now really close from bottom T2.
Kru Blaze vs ZEN esport could be a win for KRU

They can make it start earlier in 2026, they are really intresting format to do with 24 or 32 teams

I have sadfully no idea how to do that, and youtube doesnt do their job >.>

Thats a good question but I think they are 2 main reason :

• historic reason : historically worlds was the only international event of the year, we waited 5 years before the first MSI
• format : For long, the MSI have a specific format, only the top 1 of the 5 mains region where qual, (Plus winner of small regions), it was a single round robin. Having only 6 team make the event mush less important

In Valorant, historically master have almost same format and mush more team than in Champions.

How to make Champions count mush more than masters is a really interesting question and doesn't have mush answer, beside making only a master with 4 team (Or 8 teams, but dividing every region into 2 subregion and qual one team per subregion SA-NA, EU-CISTR, SEA-EA, CN-TW) that would make everyone cries, so maybe the solution is by changing champions format and make it really epic, mush longer, a fucking marathon

Hmhmmm, yeah I'm hesitating faking a bad fake english accent that may be even harder to understand

Long time ago, because it was made by IA, and it's important to gatekeep everyone that want to do art.

Whatlock in mean in that context ?

Do you find some difficulties to understand sometime or thats ok ?

Thanks ^-^
I try to do my best

Cause Indo cant trust themself ? They are the best and bigger SEA region they should trust in themself more

Harbor is always in a weird spot, to me he sounds a little bit bad, he got full smoike in his kit and not be able to solosmoke is a huge redflag.

I dont see Astra getting replaced, it was her historic map, and swamp comp did die,

We might need to stop think into class.

Every team have at least, on Diver, one Smoker, one Reveal (Thoose 3 role are without a doubt for Astra, Jett, Sova, maybe Gekko and Neon have their chance... but meh), and then it's pretty open for either a Sentinel, a Flasher or a 2nd Controller.
Viper can't be the smoker

Pretty obvious : Jett, Astra, Sova 100% Then probably KJ and Viper/Pheonix

Wrong, ponytail

gl

Awwww so cute

I think beside the 2nd point I check them all

As we say in my country "Cheh"

I feel time is ticking, more time pass and more CIS will stay on CS in the long term

CIS could be soooo strong, historically they probably need 3 team in the top 12

Should I go iron in the next act ?

Hmmm... I see what you mean, the main problem here is that Riot never make a Premier to a region if they are no server, thats why LNA doesnt have a server yet. plus, Premier is kinda pointless if they are no T2 to qualify on :/

They don't, same for CIS, and same for Levant-North Africa

Merging was an obligation, 6 league in SEA wasnt sustainable. I still think it would be better to have 2 or 3 league, depending on how many team you want per league.
If everyone go to 16 team in every region, then 2 region is good, one per server, if its 8, then we should just go do to 3 regions, Malay, MSEA, PH-TW-MN. Region with only 40m people (beside KR), isnt sustainable.

The first thing is that each comp (in the current meta) MUST have 1 of each of these things

• A duelist-diver
• A initator-reveal
• A controller-smoker

Then the 2 last spot are open for the 3 last role a team usually have (You need to pick 2 and drop 1) :

• A sentinel
• A flasher
• A second controller
  Usually you have to drop one of this, but thanks to Vyze you can hall all of 3 and sacrifce nothing, a little bit like at Skye prime where you have a excellent recon and an excellent flasher (Maybe even better, because you can have a dedicated agent to reveal, and have an agent that is split in the 2 minor roles)

If you want some datas about split 2 :

• 0 Diver composition is 3% PR (And have a horrible NMWR 45%)
• 0 Reveal comp is 4% PR (And have a horrible NMWR 44%)
• 0 Controller comp is 0% PR (Literrally)
  Then about the 2 minors spellroles + soloCtrl
• 0 Flash comp : 14% and 55% NMWR
• 0 Sentinel comp : 14% 54% NMWR
  It's hard to calculate the 1 ctrl comp, its gonna be imprecise
• 1 Controller comp : 64% less than 48% NMWR (I does count Sage as a ctrl, but not as a smoker, because she fit the definitions of ctrl and not the sent)

With Vyze you half sacrifce the the 2 worst role, you can fill with an agent that do the job 100% of the 3 main spellroles, then you can take a 2nd controller (Viper, Sage, or maybe even Astra), and then you fill the 2 less efficient roles with an agent that make 50% of the role.

She is not broken but she perfectly the "6 roles needed" meta by half sacrificing the 2 worst roles

Edit : I forgot instead oof writing a lot I should just have link this vid : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrYtWrxIO1Y (I'm not that fluid in this one... I'm better today :c)
