Hope his arm get well soon,
There's nothing better to see cNed play at full power, only to be jett & op diff by wardell in berlin.

Don't put your first and last real name on internet boy.
That's bad idea,

This is thread that we need to see more.
Insightful, Informative, No cap, No bait, and based on fact.

Pray so any NA teams win the Berlin. So there's more spot for lcq.

Whatsapp

Well, that could be true.
As like I say, it's hard to tell the rank of a team for now.

I think shahz ever say something like "T1 teams is when they already win in high rank tourney or always competing in it"
A little vague, but tbh it's hard to tell T1 or not when the performance of a team is always inconsistent.
Here's my take based on consistency of performance

T1 : SEN, NV, 100T, V1, XSET

#Note I think T1.5 is team that have T1 player but T2 performance
T1.5 : TSM, C9B, LG, NRG, ABX, IMT, SONIQ, BBG, FAZE, GENG, RISE

The rest is T2

The rise of the OLD DOG

Tbh, those 2 clips isn't as important as that YT clip
Shahz explained all the details on that YT which is really2 nice to see from different perception.

NA : SEN 100T XSET
EU : FPX ACEND TL FNATIC/GAMBIT
KR : VS NU
JP : CR NTH
SEA : X10 PRX
BR : VKS GAMELANDERS/FURIA

SEN vs ACE
100T vs FPX
ENVY vs VKS
FNATIC vs VS
TSM vs NTH
XSET vs TL

GOAT MATCH

As cypher main

1. Ascent
2. Bind
3. Haven

Great plan,
But cmiiw, tsm is one of the team that dislike any kind of scandal / anything that can make their PR bad in all of their e-sports team.

Zombs-nation

Ah I see, I miss some news.
Then that is big. I guess he will stay put first not competing in pro scene in case karen strike again.

Ummmm,
Anything is good, just accept the situation now.
Soon sinatraa ban will be lifted on september (cmiiw), go talk about it again after what SEN do to sinatraa.
Will he back to team (6 team party) or SEN will place him on content creator.
This is kind hot topic since sinatraa himself is a very2 good player, and speculation will only lead to delusions.

If you talk about the weight of tittle, No there isn't any.
And there's no reason to fix it. Since many e-sports using same format like this one.
For example Dota2, they have Minor league, Major league, and TI (The equivalent of VAL Championship). Even there's some different they have same format overall. From low to high tournament.
And what's make difference of rank 1 and 2. The point they get to qualify to the biggest tournament.

I hate SENTINEL because they're and will always winning in every competition. 🔥🔥🔥

Sinatraa
Just reminder, know lineup doesn't mean great skill at sova.

BR scene almost dead because their challanger stupid bracket system.

1st. Prize money
2nd. Seed placement (depends on region, each has different system)
3rd. Prestige.
4th. Who doesn't like to be the f***ing winner?

Wdym alphas?
The early 4 star gang almost never seen again. At least some of them will show once twice in a while.
And stars mean nothing,

IMO Kay/0 is good and capable to be used as duelist replacement with some initiator skill. But he lacks the skill for entry site.
Let's just see, with Scream skill it isn't impossible to see him make it good. At least I think it will be better than his jett.

Golden era indeed.
But with a lot new rising star like now, it's more fun and competitive scene in NA.
Overall it's not that bad imo. We can enjoy better and more exciting matches.

Hope he recovers soon,
He is vital to Liquid. And without him it's gonna be hard to qualify seeing the other teams is rising in power.

SEN
100T
TSM

Liquid + Fnatic will go to Berlin.

Wow, that's hard question.
Let's limit the scope by a player that only use controller, as far as I know there's so little. And the best is nitro from 100T
If controller + anchor, it could be wippie from v1. But he use KJ a lot too. And only main viper in controller.

Andresin might be good too, but since I rarely watch him play. I don't know much about him.
Hope that helps,

Asphyxia always have the best explanation.
You should change your flair again, that flair doesn't fit you lol.

Even a lot don't like sinatraa, you must recognize his skill as sova is top 3 in the world.
You can't compare him with levi,

He's not irreplaceable, but if it's not broken don't try to fix it.

Before say that he's perfect for SEN. You should know what's zombs role in SEN.
He's not just smoker, according from shahz zombs is the anchor of the team.
So can Andersin take that role? I don't think so

This true and false,
True because we aren't toxic, other region said toxic means it is friendly in SEA
False because language barrier isn't a thing in SEA. bobo tang ina mo.

Good read,

Skrossi alone 13-0 Acend in scrims.
He is the GOAT!

TL
Fnatic
FPX

Nice choice,

Yap that's true,
Because I think even 100T and SEN gonna have a hard time at the playoff seeing how tight the competition at challanger 1.
With that in mind, TSM is gonna have more hard time.

There's 3 team that I support in NA.
SEN, 100T, TSM.
Even I support 3, I believe only 2 can go to berlin.

It would be good if in the recent discussion panel we have a filter function. So when we wanna see recent discussion we can filter to what Sub-Forum we want.
I know that we can go to the Forum Index to search what forum we want to read, but from there we can't get info on how many replies since we last seen, so it's more convenient to see from recent discussion.

In Forum Category, it would be good if we have Match Forum and Fans-Corner. Match forum is for the Match threads and Fans-Corner is specifically for the people who want to show their support for their teams in their special way (you should know what I mean) or for people to talk about other team that they didn't support in their special way too.

And Mod get extra job to moves a thread to its sub forum category when it's wrong placed into another category.

As growing site, I think it would be great to have a simple feature that doesn't change much but help people to get what they want. 🍻

Soniq / XSET if you count them underdog.
There's no underdog other than KCP this time, but KCP play not as well as V1 back then. So i don't think there's underdog.

Brimstone Gaming

Hyeoni from DFR (KR region)
That guy jett is so cracked.

Stop capping,

rrq bubar aja dah, mending bikin team gunbound. Ini gak mutu blas,

You said there's 6 teams that can beat sentinel. But there's proven only 1 iceland champions.
Acend still won nothing and you try roast sentinel. Lmao.

Skye and breach already popular in KR since master 2.
I guess it's just different playstyle in na eu, that's why skye not getting picked a lot.

Skrossi stats is better than both of them combined.
