Yes DRX is a favorite to win the event.

is it confirmed? I would think it was in another city since the host city is LA for americas.

Dephh gon be even worse dw.

Best rivalry in all of valorant

I think nrg was doing good to counter the b-long hits problem is a team has to hard read b aggression and put at least 3 on b long leaving the rest of the map open.

Its almost like loud preped for the split pick and cleaned up their game?

Split was one of louds worst maps bro? They perma banned for whole first split and lost to optic on the second?

I am actually the 13th EG fan I love how good this team looks.

I think its less of a chemistry and more of a leader thing. Vanity has always been a joker and always a free soul, but Yay has constantly said that FNS is a true leader always making sure everyone is good and not tilting. Yay has been said to have been someone that likes his own time and he didnt hang out with the team but I think he was really good because FNS gave them some mental fortitude. Big issue with superstars always comes from fragile egos, and FNS has taken players and within structure turned them into world class talent: marved (from FaZe to envy) (Yay from Abx to envy) (S0M for now). Vanity is a great caller but both the best Na teams last year had amazing leaders (Sykko and FNS and chet) could be a pattern.

Fns import

competitively I think this is the best pool since breeze was getting kinda boring and Lotus is like actually very dynamic and fun to watch, but in ranked I'd rather have breeze back

Sacy was a great leader and midrounder, so prob not but overall they are still amazing. Great pickups fs.

Yes they deliberately have white noise.

W user

Bind is shit bc its defender sided. This map is shit because its the same comp and the same playstyle everytime

Because there’s only been 2? Why hadn’t europe won a tournament after reykjavic? Why hadn’t brazil won a champs after 2021? Like what bro its not like NA or the other regions haven’t gotten competitive teams. Every region has gotten a considerable placement in a tourney.

games will be at like 12 am for people in the west no?

i used to vape, but now its like once in a while when someone has one. Cigs destroy me every time i give one a try I always end up so bad bro.

And carpe will still feed.

Aspas will prob get one eventually, im p sure they did sacy bc he joined sen. If loud goes far this tourney expect one real soon.

Tbh idk why jingg went so far to rez he literally should've peaked off forsaken.

This one was so good starxo was laughing at himself.

What theres 4 games this weekend bro

Edit: sorry 6

• whole roster + tsm 2020 roster

I think he is similar to tenz where the team needs to establish a good system around him. In defense he was able to go for risky picks and get good kills, but on offense the team needed to set his entries up and they just never did. He also needs to learn other duelists or maybe kayo because this meta even Tenz is flexing off of jett on some maps.

Definitely looked sound in their playstyle but Im waiting till they play a more coordinated team.

Has sacy ever igled? I know he midrounds but idk if he actually calls round strats.

I didn’t think too much of mibr in general so I expected xerxia core to win since they have more experience and already been decent.

All players are from my small island country. (Half an island)

1. Not a team, but keloqz bro is back on lan and looks just as good as he was in berlin. Unlucky the team hasnt built a good system around him but he is insane.

2. EG is the opposite, no real star, but they look really coordinated and comfortable with each other. Potter has been cooking and Boostio’s calls on ct side pearl and t side ascent were really nice. Most impressed with C0M who was amazing as a support and played incredibly sound winning them a couple rounds by not dying or by some great util.

3. GenG was a team I didn’t expect much of, but they looked good when playing against Loud. K1ng is still insane and TS has some great reads on offense side. I think meteor wasn’t going insane this game he was only doing his job, but he is prone to winning whole games for himself. I didn’t like the no sentinel comps they were running on 4 lane maps, and the fact they run 2 duelists but no jett so no opper.

4. Loud was still looking good. In my opinion I thought sacy was an incredibly important part of the core and could’ve doomed Loud if he left. Yet, the team is looking really well coordinated and structure. FRoD is doing well in structuring the new guys and Sadhaak great calling as always.

NRG and crashies or s0m shows up as mvp of the tourney.

not even a choke, just loud had an amazing attack side pearl

no need for aspas when sadhaak is there

that was so good

idk who's calling but they are really getting a good read of the game rn. Smart rotates from geng.

only in mechanical skill I would say, dephh is a pretty good caller.

Im p sure they kicked him bc he didnt get along with nukkye

I can definitely see EG try to make some of their bench players into specialists, Demon1 could be subbed in on haven and other op heavy maps because he got picked up for that. Its something that until now has only been done by DFM. Super excited to see what Potter has been cooking.

EG is underrated they can easily win this match. But heretics has some pretty decent talent too.

I think nats probably going to play smokes like he did for m3c last few games. But also have to think that jampii has played a lot of roles for TL and i can see him going to smokes again or main initiator. I see sayf picking up the raze maybe (he tried a couple times on guild before going to full sentinel). Bigger concern is who is going to play sentinel on non-jett maps since sayf was transitioning to the role the last time guild played. Redgar has played every support role on m3c so hes chillin. In general this team has some crazy role overlap just like c9 does, I mean they made it work tho.

I love boaster but he is not a better igl than FnS

Im curious to see how they do, after all its an underwhelming NA team vs an underwhelming EMEA team. I actually love zeek an insane amount I hope he shows up.

Champions 2022

double duelist isn't that bad in the meta rn, we've seen some tier 2 teams try it out to some success. + PRX always try some crazy gimmick comp that works for the most part.

well said subreezy

blud let them get burned

The sentinels game might also get filled up.

You expect brazilian civilians to pay for a ticket for the first round of a tourney on a weekday going to watch a french and chinese team they probably never heard of play a game?

i changed my ign to Pujan because I have hope in my good mans.
