Deserved. What a crazy reverse sweep for Anubis.
This lineup is such a mess. If they make it work, it'll be a beautiful mess.
Its in the name: Campus clutch. University students only.
So are you saying cned can 1v5 with an op?
Yes.
shalaby vs janny
What do you mean? I don't think there is a masters campus clutch. Can you link to that?
jannyXD diff really..
kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

GSL format has been prevalent in Korean esports for a long time now, the idea is to seed them for the playoffs as well as possible & create an exciting single-elim playoffs. It's great for standalone tournaments, very volatile and exciting, each game matters.
The negatives didn't matter too much for the Reykjavik quali, because the team, that wins that single elim, would have to beat everyone else no matter the path they take to do so, but here it matters, because two teams qualify. If two teams qualify instead of one, there is a possibility where the bracket is imbalanced and the clear best 2 teams cannot in this case be selected, if the seeding gets messed up.
I think it should be double elim for this reason too, to make sure nothing funny happens and the best two teams get selected.
I don't understand if they are talking about the open qualifier or main event group stage. Maybe they are confusing the main event group stage for the open qualifier(?). The one example a person gave is GodDead, but he attended the first time and they replaced him with Esperanza. The redditor is saying, that because GodDead cannot afford to be at the event, he will not participate.
That doesn't mean, that the main event being a local event is a bad idea, they just should finance the accommodation of players, that are orgless/sponsorless. Or limit the main event to just RO8 or RO8 + non-seeding groups.
Liquipedia lists the VCT Korea qualifiers as "online" and lists the main event as "offline". And they specifically distinguish between online and offline play in the document given to players.
So something some random redditor says is assumed to be true? Lol.
Finland. So boring in fact, that no one even bothers to put us on these lists, except finns, because no one knows our country even exists.
I have a hard time thinking any semi-serious teams are going to accept players, that are stuck in diamond. Even hardstuck immortal 1-2's are a bit of a stretch, unless you're to the edge of being radiant/oscillate between radiant and immortal, or depending on the role as well.
I mean in reality there's no hard limit to anything, you mainly just have to be good at the game, but still it tells you something about a semi-pro/pro, if they hang in those ranks.
fnatic will win emea grand finals bro... then they will win berlin by beating soniqs 3-0
U asked for no peppers, but they gave you peppers and onions. Problem?
They spelled "analyst" as "analist" in their article. Yes, I'm five years old and I laughed.
Edit: Fixed.
Esperanza pickup paying dividends.
Overrated: Pizza with a ton of toppings. Masking the shittiness of the Pizza.
Underrated: Potatoes. Y'all take potatoes for granted.
Person supporting a team I don't support rationalizing why they lost = COPIUM
Me supporting a team rationalizing why they lost = REAL AND FACTUAL
he is telling the players on his team how to cope
Toggle is weird for op in valorant compared to awp in csgo, because scoping is instant in csgo.
bro they are saving strats, that was seeding game
It's not LAN, it's local online. Also why not, it's a very densely populated place and they have the facilities for it.
That was a straight up Valorant masterclass by TNL.
TNL playing this Ascent so clean.
Oh, daemoN is the manager of OG Valorant? No wonder. (sry vagueposting, those who get it will get it)
Whoever tf manages TSM Valorant.
There was mutual interest between the two parties, but the TSM organization was determined to pick up this roster and made sure that the players knew that. With multiple offers on the table, the players were in a strong position to negotiate and make sure they got everything they wanted. They did just that, and TSM gave them every single thing they asked for.
Early on it wasn't playable in PC bangs, because of Vanguard, but they got their own patched version. Don't know if it was the reason for the stunted growth compared to lets say OW, but it was a problem. Also yeah it's not very popular at all there currently, but neither was OW at the beginning, until the scene developed and people realized they could compete in it. It's been in a slight upwards trajectory, but we'll see whether it truly does take off.
Soniqs when they dissolve into the NA scene and merge.
The fact that South Korea's org representation is relatively low is unfortunate. In Overwatch, companies and individuals formed brands, that lasted for the duration of the scene(some surpassing it) while competing in local tournaments licensed by Blizzard there.
E-sports agency g-cell funded X6-Gaming, STILL8 funded Kongdoo Panthera/Uncia, LuxuryWatch funding LW Red/Blue, Afreeca funding BK Stars, Team MVP funded by multiple sponsors, Conbox & Razer funding CONBOX Spirit, Metagaming funding Meta Athena, Afreeca funding Afreeca Freeks Blue/Red. All of them competed in 4 seasons of the Apex circuit with 700k$ in prize money.
That's the kind of movement I want to see in the scene; independent & existing orgs being formed and coming in and funding the scene so it stays healthy. We've seen it happen with Vision Strikers, Nuturn, World Game Star, DAMWON, TNL Esports, just need some more to step in and fund these teams.
if he performs well in tryouts.. thats all that matters
{FaZe vlogger: #12736278137812637126371286387216387} is innocent... WOOO CELEBRATION!!!
If it happens, it happens after last chance quals.
Do not get your hopes up and you will never be disappointed. If you have low expectations and they win, you will be elated. If they lose, it's expected and you move on with your life.
Too many Turkish people have their expectations at a 10/10 when it should be somewhere like 7/10. They are no doubt a good team, but are they good enough to beat teams like G2, Acend, FPX & Gambit. That is the real question.
It depends on how well they do in stage 3. If they do well and secure a spot at champions, I don't see a reason for the players to dip and not re-sign with them(unless acend is paying literal peanuts). They are competitors, they want to make a name for themselves. In the long term making a name for yourself in a scene is more important, than a paycheck an org will pay for you(unless it's astronomical & guarantees financial security).
It depends on the map. Most EU teams still run Skye over breach a majority of the time(53% Skye, 28% Breach). In NA Skye had a 31% pickrate, while Breach was not picked by any team.
(both from recent challengers main events)
Ex6TenZ such a legend.. Hope he can play more in the future.
Who would win: 5 nukkye's vs 5 gtn's?
I just think he doesn't fit here, he still needs to find that role that he excels at. He's good at the roles he's put into and very flexible, but when you have the freedom to pick and choose, you choose the best player for every role in the context of the meta, not just ones that are good.
It's hard to see Jamppi replacing BONECOLD in terms of smokes, hard to see him being better, than Taimou at Sova, hard to see him replacing Derke as Jett, hard to see him being a better flex duelist, than hoody and hard to see him get the level of flexibility as JESMUND has in his slot & the roles he is supposed to fill.
If I chose him, it would be for the long term, probably replacing Taimou. Honestly I would also make a big consideration for H1ber on that role too, he's very good.
hoody(Flex duelist, occasional Skye & Sage)
Derke(Jett, occasional Sova)
Taimou(Sova,Sage, occasional flex Reyna)
BONECOLD(Main smoker, occasional Viper & Breach)
JESMUND(Cypher/KJ/Viper)
