Idk if you're being passive aggressive or what in the first part of your statement but sure if you see problems with my logic say them.

I doubt he leaves, he's probably getting paid mad bank and also has a hella good environment. EDG is trying to make changes which shows that they actually want to do something which is good but time will tell.

shi is more attacker sided than any map made bro, b site is legit just pearl b site but worse just plant and camp ledge.

That's not the reason lmao miniboo was playing in tier 1 despite still being in school. The only reason they have the age req at 18 is because of child labor laws as playing for a team is considered "working" unlike before franchising where people would play from home so it wouldn't be considered "working". Despite most places having lower ages for these laws they just rounded it up to 18 since that's the average for most places around the world.

Pretty sure that's another reason that valorant just wants to be less "toxic" in general but then again you can't just not see the correlation between valorant having the biggest edating community in FPS and also actively wanting to be less "toxic" unlike other games.

pretty sure everyone on this site is single bulkylettuce (you too)

when dapr goes positive by more than +5 you know you're getting cooked

Pretty sure edating in valorant has been dropped a long time ago but still just wanted to mention how it kind of killed valorant both content wise and community wise. From what I think edating in game and on content creation created a massive fan base of people and is the reason why valorant is trying to keep its community less toxic. Because if your player base is mostly edaters, having a toxic community would just stray those edaters away since why would edaters want to play within a game that people can be toxic in. Not only this but it separated the valorant community into two, the people who edated, and the people who despise them because they either throw, are annoying asf, or just boosting their gf up.

You can also see this with the new bundle (not even trying to hate on it, its sick asf but) where they try to attract their edating community to come and buy it as well since they know how to appeal and gain money off them.

It also killed the content as well since before it was basically 50% edating content and 50% whatever else people uploaded, but since edating kind of died and is not longer talked about (probably because of the hate they got due to the reasons stated before), it kind of killed the content in Valorant as well. Having 50% of your content just disappear and the lack of content within Valorant itself is slowly killing the game as well. I remember I would scroll through Valorant content because there was actually content that you could watch, nowadays its just vods of the VCT matches and compilations of clips.

FNS can play either sova or fade for ascent while Ethan plays kayo, then Nats is put onto cypher or kj for ascent. Even though s0m hasn't played duelist in an official tier 1 match its not difficult to learn since he already has a lot of experience before and he already has the mechanics down.

FNS can play sentinel or an initiator like fade or breach when nats plays viper, nats can play sentinel and FNS can play viper, its not that difficult to understand what FLEX MEANS. Also s0m can also play duelist and Ethan or demon1 can play a smokes character if they need. (before you say it because I know you are just because someone is a perma role DOES NOT MEAN THEY CAN'T HAVE A ONE OFF OCCASION, demon1 was the perma duelist on EG and still played smokes)

just make two superteams and they also have TH which makes three (also including FUT but like they kind of chokers)

VIT
Cender (or another sentinel IGL)
Sayf
Leo
Trexx

we gotta save nats bro TL is not it

EDG atp is just testing new shit out they already qualed for champs, no match from now on out matters to them anymore

since rito kind of ass at balancing I thought I would come up with a few and see what you guys think of them

Phoenix:
Blaze, Charges 1 --> 2, Heal 50 --> 25, Cred Cost 150 --> 100.

Chamber:
Trademark, Charges 1 --> 2, Radius decreased, Cred Cost 200 --> 150.

Omen:
Dark Cover, Duration 15 sec --> 13.5 sec.
Shrouded Step, Windup 0.7 sec --> 0.8 sec.

Gekko:
Dizzy, Duration 2.5 sec --> 2 sec.
Wingman, Search Duration 5 sec --> 4 sec, Run Speed 6.3 m/s --> 6.0 m/s.

atp I'm convinced that no one play tested this shit ass map bro its more attacker sided then I have ever seen before the defenders have barely anything to actually help them defend while the attackers have everything to attack. And don't even get me started on mid bro shit is bigger than the whole atlantic ocean bro and heavily favors the attackers too if they just smoke and unless the defenders have like 4 people there. Attackers just plant b near default or the little ledge and on a just plant default and shit looks nothing less than pearl b site lmao what were rito smoking when they made this map.

America's team's core have always been good while EMEA's team's cores fall off after the year they play good in. LOUD, OPTIC, and GUARD core have all done pretty decent over the years in 2023 and 2024 while EMEA on the other hand teams like ACEND, GMB, FPX, and FNC all fall off the year after they do well in. Only exception is SEN but they fell off after the first event.

LOUD - 2nd at LOCK//IN, 3rd at Champs LA
OPTIC - 4th at Tokyo, billy billy 👻👻👻👻👻👻👻👻
GUARD - 3rd at Shanghai

ACEND - failed to attend any LANs and also got cooked in EMEA challengers despite having the same roster after 2021
GMB - failed to attend any LANs and also got cooked in EMEA challengers despite having the same roster after 2021 (only excuse is no more org support)
FPX - navi kekw also only qual'ing to LANs because emea got more slots in 2023 + look shit rn
FNC - fnc kekw failed to do anything at Shanghai and missed Madrid

yeah GMB had the exact same roster after becoming M3C and couldn't qual to Iceland 2022, only excuse EMEA fans can muster up about that one is they lost their org's support.

bro did rito fucking up the chances of getting this shit map???? I've gotten it like 4/6 maps I've seen bro this shit is not good. Did they do this because they know its a horrible fucking map and they want to force people to play it or smth bro like MAKE A GOOD MAP WITHOUT SOME RANDOM ASS MECHANIC AND SOME PEARL B BOMB SITE BRO.

can rito not make a map that isn't just run it down B and spam bomb like bro Abyss and Sunset are just pearl B site 2.0 lmao

• leo + patitek fnatic can have hiro

also don't wanna be that guy but its replaced not repeated

where was any of this stated lmao only thing you said was

but PRX did beat them in one BO3 and one BO5 in stage 1

wtf is bro whaffling on about their strats being better as well you think a better strat team would end up 5th-6th at a LAN and the other being 2nd at Madrid and winners of Shanghai? lmao.

so like i said before how can G2 claim to be the best in AMER if they have a 0/3 against 100T

recency bias at its peak LMAO wouldn't expect anything less from a SEN fan tho ranking their team to be the best after one series

your facts are dumb lmao how is the first trophy holder of APAC not going to be the BEST team in APAC lmao

so how is G2 the best AMER team then if 100T has beaten them 3 times already? list doesn't make any sense lmao he is stating what the best team from each region is not comparing them to each other. He said that EDG were bad because of their LAN performance but doesn't apply to other regions???

I come back to this site to check the game and who the fuck let runneR back onto duelist bro I thought they already exiled him from the role dawg

k1Ng was top 1 at Lock//IN yet I don't recall seeing GenG in the top 4 lmao. Is he considered the GOAT then because he did good? According to your statement yes he should then.

AMER: NA
EMEA: Turkey
PAC: KR/SEA
CN: CN 🗿 (and OCE my goat autumn)

I feel like the addition of Foxy9 and BeYn was a good choice for DRX since they started to perform much better and with young talent there is a much larger area of improvement as well. Only thing that I don't understand is why tf would they drop Stax like atp just keep him for the rest of the year and they did so well and he could help Foxy9 and BeYn improve even more.

See the problem with DRX is they are trying to be like TH where they try and import as much young talent as they can and remove the older talent. Even though this is a very good option for DRX to change how they are setup and could in the long run improve how they play is also really bad. The only reason why TH works so well is because Boo has a long experience of IGL and is also an older brother of Miniboo who is also on the team, with this it sets up a really well respect connection and understanding between all the players where Boo can teach the young players how to achieve their best. Unlike DRX on the other hand where Mako has no experience with IGL and cannot bring the best out of their players simply because he doesn't know how too, it worked well with Stax as IGL as Foxy9 and BeYn came in and did really well but now Stax is gone and Mako is all that's left.

sadly there's no IGL and if Cender continues to perform to the level he did against TL then they are in pretty good hands, bro was single handedly keeping them in the game second half and OT.

What happens if a team signs 24 players who are one tricks on a certain agent and when they are needed for a map they get to play. (some agents won't need to be signed as some are pretty useless/off meta). I mean it would be pretty easy to antistrat but like agent-wise no need for flex players and everyone can play the agent they are the most comfortable with.

VIT
Cender (depending if he keeps his form against TL), Leo, Sayf, Patitek, Trexx

lightning mcqueen?

mb typed the wrong thing

All 5 players coming from the same country

AMER:
MIBR (excluding Shahz and Paint rn)

EMEA:

FUT
M8

PAC:
DRX
GEN.G
TS
ZETA

CN:
EDG (excluding S1mon)
Tyloo

not even trying to defend SEN but GENG had the same record as SEN did, made playoffs first seed, lost to t1, and could still qual for shanghai cuz DRX choked.

Already Qual'ed
TS
DRX
PRX

Already Out
Bleed

Other Teams
T1 (basically already out would need to beat the rest of the teams and also have GENG most likely not win another one.)
GENG (determined by the GE match and if GE beat t1 or not and if GENG beat TS, highly likely as GE isn't rated that high)
DFM (needs to beat all the other teams in their bracket and hope other teams lose)
ZETA (same case as DFM except they need DFM to lose due to h2h)
Talon (needs to win remaining games or hope other teams like DFM and ZETA don't catch up)
RRQ (same as Talon)

He's not wrong tho they play similar to FPX back in copenhagen except less flashy and FPX back in copenhagen was one of the most boring teams to watch even though they won because they would just play so damn slow.

I think its also because of the sheer amount of big Chinese orgs and rito wants all of those orgs in valorant as it provides a lot of viewership and on rito's part they get more and more money because of it.

Why didn't he bring this up when he lost to TH back in shanghai? Didn't seem like it was a problem when they dominated Americas only now when they lose to a pretty horrible team did he bring it up and use it as an excuse.

EDG is locked in because no matter what 2nd place does (FPX) they can't catch up to them so they are guaranteed champs. Other regions on the other hand need to have 2nd place not win any games so they cannot catch up but they still have a chance to do so.

oh mb then

I'm not insulting 100T lmao, you said those would be easy wins and that 100T would place over SEN, now it doesn't seem to be so true. Don't auto assume im insulting 100T and get overly defensive about it.

rito wanted to be different and make it so teams had a hard time qualifying

why is EG champs so low? they had to play against some of the most dominate teams that we have ever seen before to this date (except FNC but they were already crumbling apart).

Pretty sure he was only sad because he was getting shit on by NA fans bout C9's performance in 2023 and not being able to qual for any LANs despite being a hella good team. Atp I don't think he cares that much anymore since he won a trophy which was the only thing that he really wanted to do and was why he was sad since they could've had a major run at both tokyo and LA.

13-1 on sunset broke 100t dawg no shot they losing this to Furia out of all teams.

How are yall gonna be scared to push B site by a dude who hasn't been relevant since 2022 lmao. Khalil got aura now dude.

what bout those easy wins again?

I think you meant NA, cuz Americas got MIBR and Furia
