Americas has slightly better average teams than pacific but pacific has better bad teams than Americas. (Also pacific got GenG)
(talking about the regionals btw not the internationals)
NA winners: Sentinels, Now: 2 time trophy holders same ORG different team.
EU winners: Acend, Now: 1 time trophy holders, tier 2 team, players scattered across EU.
BR winners: Vikings, Now: 1 LAN appearance, disbanded, 3/5 players in VCT rn, kind of LOUD core (Sacy and Saadhak at the time)
LATAM winners: Australs, Now: 0 Lan appearance, disbanded, basically LEV (before 2023)
Turkey winners: FUT, Now: 3 LAN appearances, completely different team.
CIS winners: Gambit/M3C, Now: 1 time trophy holders, disbanded, players scattered across EU.
SEA winners: x10, Now: 2 LAN appearances, disbanded after losing in T2, basically TALON before 2024.
KR winners: VS, Now: (literally just DRX), similar players before the 2024 reboot of DRX.
Japan winners: CR, Now: 3 LAN appearances, disbanded after losing in T2, basically DFM with similar players.
Ardiis was never bad on KJ or Sage you might just be getting tunnel vision about the sage clip vs FNC, he was always positive or nearly positive unless his team was getting cooked hard on those agents. He might have been uncomfortable on those agents but he was never bad on them.
ardiis isn't doing bad now what are you talking about??? only reason he wasn't at shanghai was because he had to play TH in the shitty format. Not defending chet or anything just saying you not looking at it clearly.
he made a top 3 finish and destroyed paper rex single handedly, am I missing something here? Put flore on G2 in playoffs and even with all the looney toons ahh comebacks G2 can manage to pull out they still wouldn't get anywhere.
Your entire post is asking would he replace anyone on a t1 team, going positive in a t3 tourney is the bare minimum for a t1 player especially if they are trying. He wouldn't replace victor (current), zekken, oxy, icy, cryo/asuna, or jawgemo.
Because being on a non-gc team in some random ass offseason like tourney doesn't mean anything bro. he's been on a GC team anything they do anything that is somewhat competitive (NA qualifiers or GC itself).
Nah the future of valorant looks good especially for pro players as they are basing every change basically on pro play. Only problem is the community and the content in the game but that should be created in the community itself and the last time we let them do that, lets just say it's not good (edaters and that shit). They should probably add more stuff content wise to the game and not only changes based on pros but besides that it looks decent so far (plus the game is still young give it time to grow).
what are some funny nicknames that can be made using team's name
NRG: Not really gaming
EDG: Erectile dysfunction gaming
G2: Gold2
I'm talking about the round he threw nothing else, I said that the kills he got didn't matter in THAT round since the OP mentioned that he got 3 kills to start but then if he lost the round and the map, those 3 kills don't matter since he kind of threw.
EDG has gotten 63 rounds in Madrid and 26 rounds in Shanghai???? where did bud get "try getting more than 10 rounds in a international tournament this year" KEKW. Also can you let me know how many rounds NRG has gotten at a LAN this year?
s0m had more than enough time to just run away he knew CGRS wasn't close to him but he played that so he could get the kill instead of the round. I could see him being way to tunnel visioned in but still he threw that round for NRG the kills that he got to start doesn't matter if he lost the round and the series afterwards.
You mean LA? since EDG actually made playoffs unlike a specific team. Also NRG hasn't done anything expect be humiliated by teams while having world champions on it.
yall have been creating excuses as to why your team isn't doing good SINCE franchising it's actually crazy I'll list a few
NRG does bad? MUST BE ARDIIS DOUBLE AGENT (nrg fans completely ignoring his good games??? 😲)
s0m cove incident? (you know what let's just not talk about it)
NRG loses to BLG twice? MUST BE FLUKE/NRG OFF DAYS/NRG BURNOUT
NO IGL IN 2024? bro Ethan has experience with second calling and they also have 5 world class champions they should at least know how to play the game normally and not look like headless chicken. My ranked games be looking better than NRG on some rounds.
DEMON1 SYSTEM PLAYER? I don't think I've heard that a single time when demon1 was on EG only when he was doing horrible on NRG did people call him a "system player"
DROP CRASHIES AND VICTOR = MAKE BETTER TEAM? Yeah let's drop some of our best players from last year and the more consistent ones (cept for s0m bro was a demon)
TenZ was never expected to perform to the same level demon1 was expected to perform to (plus TenZ wasn't even "underperforming"), people already knew TenZ fell off since 2021 but demon1 didn't since he just came off being the MVP from champs 2023. The excuse of people saying that he was a system player was only developed AFTER he was dropped from EG and did horrible on NRG, I never once heard that demon1 was a system player while he was on EG.
I mean the free shield is nice but it doesn't really change him much since he's supposed to be a spam counter. Reyna is pretty solid still I just think that the nerf for the heal was uncalled for.
What do yall think about the duelist changes?
My opinions:
Raze - Idk don't see much of a difference besides the speed
Iso - still pretty useless
Reyna - ngl the healing nerf nerfed her more than the speed buff buffed her
Neon - yeah pretty good now
Jett - nothing happened
phoenix - nothing happened
they are better than your cringe ass content org that can't do shit with 5 world champions (also jollz? kekw)
Fnatic (UK based) and Gambit (Russia based) and you could even include FPX but that was a EU win despite being a Chinese org
EU fans when they claim trophies of teams that aren't even in the EU: 😊👍
EU fans when NA fans try to claim LOUD's champ trophy as an Americas win: 😠👎
why did bro put fnatic when they got bodied by FUT in shanghai
Before ranking we should remember that every team deserved these wins and fought hard to even compete in these tourneys and the achievements they got. Anyways lets listen to me and the rest of you roast the hell out of them and label some of them as flukes.
My Explanations (not ranking btw just order):
2021
2021 Iceland (First ever LAN had a bunch of hype moments and the sight of the most dominate tourney run by SEN ever seen to this day, had a bunch of hype games like NUTURN vs V1 but it was just mostly SEN)
2021 Berlin (master) (Hella entertaining with comebacks like 100T vs GMB, GMB vs NV, and great games like 100T vs ACEND, over all a pretty solid tourney)
2021 Champs (I'm not even gonna lie this tourney was pretty lackluster for me, we saw some great runs like KRU and the GF was pretty good but then again there were things like the Keyd Stars game and the fact that GMB had to play ACEND in the GF like 8 hours after finishing their KRU game and it being 12 AM at night)
2022
2022 Iceland (I'm not gonna lie probably one of my favorite tournaments ever, we had the rise of APAC with teams like PRX and the Cinderella run of ZETA and we also had a hella entertaining GF with LOUD and OPTIC)
2022 Copenhagen (Once again another one of my favorite tournaments where we saw the impossible lower bracket run of FPX and the amazing run of PRX and the GF was just amazing as well)
2022 Istanbul (Another great tournament might be one of the best ever we saw the revenge of LOUD in the GF, amazing games like XSET vs FPX, FPX vs DRX, DRX vs OPTIC)
2023
Lock//IN (a very controversial tourney and many people myself included think it was a very mickey mouse tourney and the only games I found really entertaining was LOUD vs FNC, LOUD vs DRX, and NRG vs LOUD, but besides that it was pretty lackluster)
2023 Tokyo (A very good tourney where we saw many amazing runs like EDG, EG, and PRX (with a sub) but then again many teams were underperforming and there was basically no one that could challenge FNC)
2023 LA (all i need to say is BLG EG PRX LOUD basically sums up the tourney, anyways amazing tourney)
2024
2024 Madrid (pretty good tourney with many hype games like TH vs PRX and the revenge story of SEN and the performance of GENG)
2024 Shanghai (hella entertaining tourney but just like Tokyo every team was basically underperforming but at least we had an amazing performance from teams like GENG, TH, and G2)
now after my rambling rank em
So then I could say that since you're talking about the EU which stands for European Union, would mean that any trophy that FNATIC had gotten is not considered in the total of EU trophies since the UK (the place where they are based in) is not in the EU (European Union) anymore, meaning EU only has 3 trophies. See how stupid your argument is?
yeah thats what Americas means idk what you smoking if you don't think that
fortnite is not the same as valorant lmao at least both CS and valorant have basically the same gameplay (also yeah Myth might unironically be good at Valorant if he put time into it look at Benjy kekw), plus this shit is supposed to be having fun when making a team why tf are you the OP making it seem so serious 💀
Your sentinels and smokes are usually the hard anchors and will most likely die early or be the last alive depending on the site the other team hits.
??? they need to stay as long as possible to get the most value out of their util bro? Look at the pacific podcast with all of the smokes players saying that. Sentinels isn't any different.
Probably meant that he wanted to become the best in Valorant as he was also on T1 too
what the initiator is the person who is usually dying as they try to set up the duelist to get frags, the roles that usually get trades are the sentinel and smokes as they need to try and stay alive for as long as possible (also known as baiting basically). You'll most likely see a initiator last alive if their duelist dies when they support them or the other roles get picked off when they lurk.
because iZu said he wanted to be the Faker of Valorant
most of the duels he loses literally loses rounds
well no shit if anyone loses a duel it will usually result in a round loss unless you have some cracked teammates that can bring you back or trade you when you die
What about the time or the game? If someone mentioned someone in their prime who was the best in the world at one point it wouldn't matter. Its the same as if someone mentioned 2021 Iceland TenZ some people would probably think of one of the most dominate players the game has ever seen despite the time since and how the game has changed. Also bro pro city? dawg that shit did not last and even then Tarik wouldn't be as competitive in it as he would be in an actual tournament and it was mostly just content and fun for him since he didn't want to Q ranked with throwers.
There have been little to no threads made from Americas fans shitting on GenG or APAC first win, you be making a fool for us EDG fans.
fk it slap 4 controllers and one duelist on the map
Yoru (can be aggressive and take space with ult and tps and can act like an initiator)
Omen (acts like an initiator/second duelist and also a space taker)/Clove (acts like a second duelist and can provide more aggressive plays)
Viper (yeah self-explanatory map needs big smoke)
Harbor (same as viper, also cove very good 😊👍)
Astra (yeah she's pretty good on this map since she can pull people and stun and support Yoru)
Bro why are you getting so offended for me pointing out Lakia? I was saying you did him dirty because all of GenG was in world class tier and he wasn't. Also for Tarik that's why I said "prime" because if you didn't know he was the IGL and match MVP back in the Boston Major who mounted a comeback that was never before seen in CS, plus in those 10 man servers and ranked you really think he's going to try his hardest? Like come on bro.
bro why the fuck did you do my boy lakia dirty like that 😭😭😭
team tho (if we talking about prime)
$0.5 Tarik (c9 days) - IGL/Second Initiator
$5 Meteor - Sentinel + Second Duelist
$5 Aspas - Main Duelist
$1 CGRS - Initiator
$3 Mindfreak - Smokes
Bind - 100T
Breeze - GenG
Icebox - TH
Ascent -
Split - (probably still SEN)
Sunset -
Lotus -
Fill in the rest idk
They are already used to running triple controller comp for icebox and abyss has a bunch of choke points that would need a lot of smokes to block off so I see them being pretty dominate on the map.
they are supposed to be shit but emea is just fucked because they will randomly lose to the worst teams
he also barely get kills ofc he's gonna have a high headshot if he never hits the enemy and only hits like 6-7 headshots per game
M8 BBL where? also literally any EMEA can beat another just because of how off they seem
was considering that but then they wouldn't have an IGL
if FNC don't win anything this year or do terrible I see him leaving and rejoining his Guild buddies and wdym hype is bad look at his stats please before commenting on anything
remove kicks, runner, and cender
add leo to replace kicks
remove runner and sayf moves to duelist again
add patitek for smokes and flex
add hype as IGL and sentinel (correct me if im wrong but pretty sure he's the IGL for apeks rn)
trexx just chills
Completely agree with you they look far better than any team currently but you can't excuse the fact that other teams made the map look amazing too
How were they boring? Even if they were boring it doesn't exclude the fact of them being one of the most dominate teams on it alongside pre-franchising LOUD so idk your point now because you were roasting them for losing once on it just now but you're now saying how they were boring...
