I don't understand the whole "hpye man" thing.

It's really not that hard. Every pro in every interview has said the same thing. If the team doesn't click, they play like shit. They've played like shit with pancada, they played well with Zellsis. Even if you don't understand how team dynamics might affect performance, this part is very obvious.

Also teams usually go into scrims with a specific focus, for example improving comms, or limit testing certain setups. What actually matters is how those specific things go, which are not at all reflected in the scorelines and completely invisible to us.

EG would not have cooked FNC. Loud beat them because they had the perfect playstyle to counter them. They already showed this at LOCK//IN when they made FNC look like complete dogshit on Split and Lotus even though nobody else could touch FNC on Lotus.

I know the average Valorant fan's understanding of the game doesn't go deeper than "team A beat team B = team B washed" but if you have even the slightest bit of understanding of the game I feel like it's very obvious how it wasn't talent that led to Loud consistently beating FNC while no other team could (including EG, twice).

Yeah y0y is just iconic. I like L0ss and D0rke personally. Stuff like Sha0 is a bit lame imo.

Names that are unique and actually create a funny pun >>>> randomly putting a 0 or an L or a bot somewhere. Sometimes it works (like L0ss or D0rke), but most of the time it's pretty lame.

Like come on, why call Alfajer Botfajer, when Betajer is literally right there?

Everyone says their team is built to win. Every team that is even remotely close to having a chance to ever compete for a top placement is always going to say that their goal is to win. That doesn't mean there actually is pressure, or that their internal expectation is "if we don't win every trophy it's a failure".

posted about a year ago

Yeah but that's coming from the fans, not from NRG themselves.

posted about a year ago

Exactly, hence overrated.

posted about a year ago

Are they putting pressure on themselves though? The fans are putting pressure on them, sure. But have they said anything publicly about what their actual internal expectations are? How are they putting more pressure on themselves compared to for example Sen or Lev?

Half the people on this website have them in top 3 or even top 2 for Americas, how is that underrating them?

posted about a year ago

No, it really doesn't. The point of the post is NRG haven't scrimmed enough and thus will be bad. The point of this comment is that they have scrimmed enough.

Nobody claimed that the number of scrims is somehow proportional to how good a team will be. Literally the only question here is the distinction between scrimmed enough vs did not scrim enough

They probably just don't want to create precedents where orgs can de facto sell their slots. That's also why they didn't want another org buying the Guard roster at first. Essentially they have now created a precedent that going forward, any org can pretty much just sell their slot by simply refusing to sell the partnership contract. Allowing EG could possibly (not saying it necessarily would) open the gates for more slot selling scenarios which would destabilise the whole partnership system.

Obviously it still sucks that the EG roster was broken up and they now have this budget roster. I don't necessarily think it was a "wrong" decision per se. Should have just never let EG into the system in the first place.

Shooting heads is a dedicated purpose of the game, lurking isn't. This "the game was always going to reach this point" argument can be used for literally everything. Someone was bound to discover the theory of relativity eventually, that doesn't mean we don't credit Einstein for it.

I feel like in terms of impact on how the game is played as a whole, nobody comes close really. Yay's chamber was very impactful, but it relied too much on the agent to have longevity. And nAts performed very consistently at top level for a longer time.

Nivera wasn't that bad individually tbh. And we all know what Scream can do in theory at his peak. The question is if they're still insisting on playing together. I feel like you could easily slot Nivera into any tier 2 team in EMEA and he'd do well. Scream might be a bit more difficult in tier 2 because it's very risky to put one star player on an inexperienced lower-tier team and can really negatively affect team morale (see DSG yay for example).

How many flashes in pro matches actually connect and full blind an enemy though?

One of the most dominant teams on a specific map (FNC on Lotus) has been playing no flashes all year. They also played no flash on Icebox, which was another very dominant map for them. It has nothing to do with coinflipping, they just have other ways of achieving the same goal.

Take for example Ascent A site. You are an attacker trying to take the site. Let's assume for a second there are no abilities at all. What you're gonna do is clear every angle carefully. If your opponent is just standing still holding any of these angles, you probably win. So a good player won't do that. If they play say, behind dice, they will jiggle occasionally trying to catch a timing. There's a very good chance you clear that angle, don't see them, and then just as you're clearing the next angle, they peak out and kill you.

So now let's add abilities into the mix. If your opponent plays like this, a flash is gonna have zero impact. It either won't catch them, or it catches them on a jiggle and they simply tuck behind dice for two seconds (which they would have done anway), and you won't get any info (unless it's a Skye flash). A prowler could be much more effective in clearing that out, because they can't out-jiggle it. Any AOE ability behind dice will also likely lead to a kill because they have to swing and you'll be ready for it.

That doesn't mean flashes are useless of course, I watched Acend play Bind earlier and they had some crazy Yoru flash tech, especially when you pair the flash with something like a Fade eye to force them to look at it and pop the flash right in front, guaranteeing one of the two abilities to hit them. But it's not like flashes are the only possible ability, or even the best ability, for denying angles.

posted about a year ago

Holy shit an ultimate ability can win a round if you manage to get into a very specific situation where it's good??? No way

posted about a year ago

I mean there will be a full round robin across the two regular season stages, right? In stage 2 you play the 5 teams that you didn't play in stage 1. So every matchup is guaranteed to happen at least once.

I like Icebox purely because I like playing Viper but nobody wants to play double controller in ranked.

Might be a shit map, but as long as I can play Viper I'm happy

posted about a year ago

That is correct, unless A#2 wins play ins. In that case, B#1 would play against either A#1 or A#2

posted about a year ago

That makes no sense. Didn't they want to seed the groups by points? That would mean #2,#3,#4,#5 would be one group.

Edit: yeah this looks like it literally just lists the standing with only EDG moved to C.
