PRX played Fnatic on Bind and Ascent. They played Guild on Frac.

Fun fact : The last time an EMEA team beat PRX, Sentinels were the best team in the world.

Is this you or your twin?

Onto next BO5 if you're an Optic fan.

Marked

Optic wins if they ban Bind against them. PRX wins Ascent and Optic win Breeze (if it's selected) and Haven/Fracture.

Thanks for the jinxes.

Not to forget they also popularised the use of Kay/o on Fracture before it was even a thing. Also the use of Kay/0 in Icebox and Split.

1.Optic
2.Fnatic
3.PRX
4.FPX

Last time Fnatic got defeated by a 13-11, 13-10 scoreline they ended up reaching the Grand finals.

Like you said, I think PRX are really good in B03s and I can see the first game going either way, but it'll surely be a 2-1. I am going the Optic way because I really want them to be in the final first.

FPX vs FNC atm depends on map picks. If FPX don't ban Icebox this time against FNC, then imagine a Fnatic 2-1 and if Icebox gets banned then FPX may 2-1. I am predicting FNC to win here.

If PRX drops into the lower bracket I think they may have a tough time because they will play in a Bo5. Their map pool outside Ascent, Fracture and Bind seems not that convincing. If Fnatic gets Icebox and Haven into the map pool then it'll be a 3-1 in favour of Fnatic.

A grand final between Optic and Fnatic is the most hyped final and the final that most people want here at the tournament. FNC ban Breeze and Optic ban Icebox. Fnatic wins Ascent and Fracture. Optic wins Haven, Bind and Split to take the series 3-2

Not necessarily. They might have not suited the playstyle of G2. Ardiis during his time played Sova and other initiator roles, Kolda too played initiator on G2 and Zeek was flexing for them on different roles. They really didn't tap into the potential of these players. Kolda during his time at G2 actually did great until the Gambit 13-0. Other players weren't comfortable with their roles so yeah it didn't work out for them.

Someone without a SEN flair believe in Sentinels? Is this a troll pick or for real?

Optic 2-1 hopefully.

I think Paper Rex have a better chance of beating Optic or any other team in a Bo3 than a Bo5. However i think Optic wins and plays Fnatic in the final.

Raze is a util heavy agent. You can use her abilities to stop hits, plants and she adapts very well to Fnatic's methodical style of play.
Neon on the other hand is an agent that needs to be played aggressively. If you saw yesterday's Fracture game look how DRX were using Neon to create a lot of space on site. It's also important to hit your shots with the util thrown by your team.
Raze on the other hand forces duels. Say, you nade a corner, the person will be forced to take a duel or run away.
The only thing contradicting Fnatic's Raze was the Viper which I find to be an unnecessary pick with a Breach on the team.

DRX too countered Victor's neon very well yesterday.

Kekw, Mitchman and Tombiz are biased too. Look how sad their voices were when Fnatic got smoked yesterday.

Played well when it mattered. Otherwise he was throwing with all those over peeks.

1. I lost it when Keznit got 3 kills through the smoke against SEN in the LB elimination match.

2. SEN losing to NV back in Masters Berlin.

3. GMB losing to Acend in the finals of Champs.

Reality check for EMEA will be when Optic meets Fnatic.

Yes, Liquid has to win something to make a documentary or else their best Valorant video would be " How it sounds to come 3rd at Berlin Champions".

Everyone sleeping on C9 at the moment after acquiring Curry. Last LCQ also we didn't expect them to do well and they ended up being the team to win it.
Regardless of how good curry is, the remaining roster is really good.

Well deserved coz they couldn’t play the first LAN. Expect them to go to top 4 now.

EMEA so bad. One team going home today as well.

Dephh is really experienced and is just like Boaster for Fnatic. He will help the guys out.

Just imagining the scenes if Guild somehow manages to win Map 2.

Ya Optic will have 1 more.

Chill it's been 6 rounds.

Nah, there's no way it'll be an all EMEA FINAL.

No they need an IGL.

As an NA valorant fan I want Optic to win. SEN vs KRU flashbacks give me ptsd.

Sentinels and streaming.
Nothing tops this.

I don't know if this is a coincidence but the last time KRU made a deep run, they lost to an EMEA team, beat a BR team and an NA team in a lower bracket match.
They lost to an EMEA team.(Liquid in Champs, Guild here)
They beat a Brazilian team ( Furia in Champs, Loud here)
They meet an NA team in the lower bracket elimination ( Sentinels in Champs, Optic here)

Are KRU making a deep run this time too?

Mitchman and Tombizz are good casters but they are heavily EMEA biased. What else do you expect?

The best EMEA team is FPX, what are you on?

The true Shao is back.

True. Zellsis is also a good raze, so I imagine he will be playing Raze on maps like Fracture, Bind, Haven etc.

Ascent is literally FPX's best map btw. They even beat Fnatic on Ascent.

The only reason Xia won that many rounds on defense is because they had a Chamber Oper. If Xia had no Chamber then it would've been easier for FPX.

That was last masters bruh. This Masters has both the finalists in a lower bracket game.

No I understand if the Skye had stayed guarding the hookah push near the attackers' side barrier but instead takes a duel when literally no info is available for them in B long.

FPX's weakest map btw.

Gamble on A by playing 4 people.
Skye pushes down hookah and takes duel instead of holding a cheeky angle.
What was that?

I would like to see DRX play Fnatic or Xset and FPX play PRX. FPX vs PRX could be cool considering FPX also does crazy stuff like PRX at least in the comps part. Also we may see Ange1 yoru vs F0rsaken yoru.

Derke bald buff better.

Nah Loud has 3 Ls in their name and surely they hand 1 L to KRU today.

Might need to look at the dictionary once again at the end of this masters then. Surprised if I don't find PRX's picture too.

Why didn't you join Real Madrid?

End of August maybe
