DRX owned Optic on Fracture last time so let's wait and watch.
That's true. I don't know a lot about Loud's coach but he seems to know his game very well.
If NA lose = NA trash
If EMEA lose = EMEA got antistratted.
Fnatic vs Furia was a lot closer than FNC vs TL, so Furia>TL?
There weren't even 16 teams in Masters 2. They finished 11th-12th along with Xerxia.
What sets Loud apart from other Brazilian teams?
I have been watching Brazilian teams compete since last year's Reykjavik Masters and the region has improved hugely since their debut tournament. However what I find amusing is the fact that Loud look completely different from the other Brazilian teams. Their executes on Ascent and Bind were really good! When they started out this year, I felt like Sacy is still going to be the big bad of the team and put up similar numbers like last year. Saadhak is a good IGL but he wasn't that exceptional last year. Aspas was a ranked demon and when I first watched him, he reminded me about Heat. I heard Less was a good player, not a lot about Pancada and my first impressions was that they would finish top 4 in Reykjavik 2022.
When I look at Brazil as a region, I feel that there are lots of talented players and raw aimers(Heat, Mwzera, Dgzin, Khalil, Mazin, tuyz, cauanzin, matheuzin, kon4n etc.)
You can't say that the other teams are strategically bad i.e; when I looked at Fnatic vs Furia, Furia really counterstratted their Icebox and punished their attack side. Similarly they played well on Haven and lost by a really close margin. NIP played really well in Reykjavik too. Is it their mental? Or is it there inability to close about crucial games?
What do you have to say?
Isn't all of his cringe comps the meta on each map now?
90% of teams started playing neon on fracture after Optic did it. We also saw Neon on haven until Fade-raze became the meta. Their Ascent comp in Reykjavik is the same that Loud uses and their Icebox comp is literally the best in the world. Their pearl comp is also the best at the moment.
I go for a DRX 3-2 Optic with DRX winning Haven, Breeze and a close Fracture. Optic win Icebox and Bind.
he said he was going to London on stream a few days back.

Guess the jokes that you hear are so bad that you laugh for things like this. Yeah, good luck hating on Sentinels man, I ain't gonna change your mind anyways.
here's the address to a hospital so that you can treat your brain damage.
No, they didn't. They played well at Champs and M3. Unfortunately they got beaten by both the semifinalists in Champs and the eventual finalists in M3.
As for M3, they were counterstratted heavily by every team since they were the reigning world champs.
Fracture was added during M3 Berlin and was playable at Champs last year. This time too it's a similar case.
Optic beat them on Split en route to their Reykjavik crown.
If you think they aren't tier 1 players, you got hit somewhere on the head bro. The reason why Sentinels didn't perform was not due to the players being bad. They were just too complacent and didn't have a proper structure and management. If they had introduced proper coaching staff, analysts in Stage 1 or the start of Stage 2, then they would have performed much better than they did. Do you think players like Valyn, Trent, JonahP were all Tier 1 before TGRD picked them up? No, they weren't. But, they put in the work, had a proper structure and made it to LAN. Same goes for 100T. If SEN had the commitment they had in the last 2 weeks before LCQ, they would've surely made it to LAN. Say, you put the SEN roster under a person like Sgares and the staff of 100T, the team becomes godlike.
He got dropped in February didn't he? Thank goodness SEN didn't pick him, otherwise I would've stopped supporting them.
Zellsis is a really good player though. Not like BabyJ or Stew who isn't a Valorant pro.
🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡Hahahahaha...
Props to Minijake, he's the best scout in EMEA.
Make a laugh thread for shownu though.
Thank god.
Also shut the haters DRX!! Less go!!
Light armor when you have good econ is just not it man. In a map like Ascent where wallbangs play a huge role, that extra 25hp would make a huge difference. You can't tank a molly even for a second to take an aggressive angle.
saving econ for next map. Just boaster things.
Even Jamppi is better and more consistent than Derke on Chamber.
Yes, I would agree with that. Same things happened with Sentinels too. From being the arguable best team in NA in 2021 to not even top 10 hurts as a Sentinels fan.
G2 vs Gambit Masters 3. Map- Icebox
G2 vs Liquid Stage 3 EMEA playoffs. Map-Icebox.
Envy vs Gambit Masters 3. Map- Bind.
Nope, the roster was rebuilt only after Stage 1 of challengers concluded and they got grouped in Stage 1.
They played with the same 5 that won Champs for the entirety of the group stage excepting the game against BBL.
Neon-Breach is still good on Haven, we saw how Xerxia played it against KRU and completely shut them down.
Surprised you got DRX winning more than LEV going 0-2.
IMO, Liquid have a very weak map pool besides their Breeze, Haven and Ascent.
Fnatic surely picks Bind and if Liquid ban Pearl instead of Icebox it's ggs. I don't think Liquid should do that since both their Pearls are bad. Fnatic have a stronger map pool so,
2-0 Fnatic .
FPX and LEV both have a strong Ascent so it'll be a banger and I wonder whose map pick it is going to be.
FPX surely bans Breeze and Haven and LEV bans Fracture and Pearl.
FPX wins Icebox and Ascent and LEV win Bind
2-1 FPX.
At this point Optic should ban Breeze otherwise it's a free map for their opponents. Their executes have always fallen short in Champs so far so I hope they ban it.
Xset bans Bind and Ascent
Optic bans Icebox and Breeze
Xset pick Pearl
Optic pick Fracture
Haven remains.
Optic 2-0.
PRX had a scrappy attack and they cut site executes because Jinggg always entered site and died without getting traded. Honestly their retakes were much better against LEV and PRX but they just couldn't find the early round picks which they got on Breeze.
