Valorant has really low prizepools for the amount of tournaments they host each year honestly.

Zekken? Not good with raze (thats the insaniest thing ive seen in a while)

Great takes congo1 👍
Overall depth of the region is greater than last year, and I agree that a team like M8 could have easily been top 4 last year lol. EMEA is less likely to win Madrid if we are being realistic, but I think making grand finals should be possible.
The level should get higher as the year progresses, and as someone said in some other thread, the battle for 4/5th place for champs is gonna very entertaining because the teams are close in skill level.

pretty sure someone did a bit worse, cant remember..

Yikes! 0-16 is insanee 💀💀

Tenz really just took over the game

Bruh y'all have LOUD going ofc you're well represented to win any tournament 😂

Bye bye 🤫🧏‍♂️

Lmaooo. LFG SEN. There goes the clouted teams from almost every region.

that's like one talent who cant even shine due to frauds like asuna and cryo.

On a real note though, he is insanely talented lol. Literally first proper shot at tier 1 franchise and immediately qualifies to Masters event. Sad he never got to win an FNCS.

Signing actual talent from tier 2 NA like n4rrate or OXY

Man I hope they are atleast decent this Masters. This org has only brought in shit teams from CN all the time in international events.

Its gonna be very dangerous when they actually do have the strats. They're gonna make some teams where every player can frag out pretty soon i bet.

Full boxed max pumped these kids

0/16 of 2024 😂😂

Moatz clears you buddy

Comment controversial things. Everyone with four stars usually posted controversial and rage baits and got downvoted a lot to get the stars!

Being spammed with y0y wont be good for his mental health.

Yeah then it should be even more clear cNed clears qw1 in every single metric, just like 2023, 2022 and 2021. You're just yapping after he had the worst game of his career.

I've always been a BBL fan!

TakaS literally in franchise. Dgzin was in franchised league last year.

FNS has always been funny lol. Him duoing with s0m when he never streamed and was praccing hard was some of s0m's most entertaining videos for me.

balla from fortnite?!?!

I mean I almost never listen/watch the desk nowadays so idk. But the ash and pavlos is not good lol. Mitchtom has been the only saving grace, which isnt a good standard compared to last year lol.

If sayf went to NAVI last year, NAVI would have most likely won three in a row. Just a food for thought

ANGE1 and maybe MrFallin and MAGNUM. Definitely not redgar though, anyone but redgar.

Nah fr fr. They had to face the GOAT turkish team with Alfajer though. Mushashi and vookashu needs to be in franchise though.

Yo you were pretty damn good back in the Rebels Gaming days with vookashu, janny and mushashi. That was my fav ascension team in 2022.

That'd make me so sad though. I'll still give him the benefit of doubt. I hope him and even y0y bounce back as its only the start of the season.

botwell was just terrible imo. He's great as a CC, but is completely washed in pro play. There's a point where these players need to let go.

KC, a team made completely out of tier 2 EMEA and NA. Like four whole players straight up the depths of tier 2 (GMT, SAW, MAD LIONS). Then you have miniboo, runner, kicks, benjyfishy, riens, woot, pattitek. Just goes to show how many frauds there were in EMEA last year.

But they just played one game lol. How did you deduce soo much from it lol.

Yes, he is a better neon and has diffed qw1 in every single scenario every time they faced, especially jett. Don't yap about something you have no idea about. The only thing qw1 is better at, is raze.

cNed is better than qw1 in every single aspect other than raze. Its just that other teams are really good as well.

Hopped on Valorant as I'm on break and VCT started lol, but yeah I prefer watching. Enjoyed playing fortnite and fifa more lol.

Wym by yap buddy 😭 You know there's no answer. There is no exciting playstyle of SHITPAC. Just braindead playstyle, easy to counter by top teams playstyle and finally zero trophy playstyle.

Lol what is with this stupid "shift walk EMEA" narrative. Its not the case at all, infact teams like GENG are way slower now than EMEA teams. Exciting playstyle my ass, just say its a shit playstyle, a playstyle that got you zero trophies for three years of VCT lmao. Players like Boaster and Chronicle have more grandfinal appearances than SHITPAC.

yoo that was good as well, but PRX were pretty shit back then.

They believed in Acend because of kiles lol. Also look at Nbs there, he was the coach haha.

They were very very underrated at that time.

I mean look at this pickems I had. I genuinely thought they'd go home to fullsense lmao.

Champs 2021 was one of the best events ever lol. Soo many insanee moments lol. KRU shitting on SEN. Fucking x10 beating ENVY on a rematch. Acend and VK drama. Also the long awaited battle of SEN vs Team Liquid. Gambit vs Vikings 12-5 comeback 😭 Fnatic also somehow beat every team in their group.

The time has come. He has waited looong

cant believe DRX is not gonna be in the next LAN

They'd still destroy S0ntinels from sheer firepower

Its hilarious when SHITPAC talks shit 😹

John cutie clears

No doubt

Yeah lmfao. Even with our terrible position from last year, Giants shat on Americas LCQ winner like it was nothing. How do they even waffle about depth lmao. They got extremely lucky last year with NAVI on a group with Liquid, LOUD and DRX.

cender is usually good, but not against alfajer lol
