Saving strats, ofc they don’t fully try in ludwig tourney
Ankalaev is a disgustingly dirty fighter
Illegal knee vs Johnny Walker and then in the rematch full on nut-kicks him
I hope he gets round 1 KO'd vs pereira
orgs already struggle to get sponsors, adding the chance of relegation would harm the scene a lot
true, they're levels below them
they would 26-0 barca esports
also nice 4-1 loss to Real Madrid today💀
he played 2 matches and one was a win vs PRX you troglodyte
Ludwig > Tarik confirmed
my pookie would be 6'10 if carrying G2 on his back hadn't stunted his growth
such a tragedy, but my humble sweet king would never care about such small things as height
why try to rewrite the past
the C9 with Vanity, Xeta, Xeppaa, Leaf, and Mitch was top 3 NA and competitive with Optic
At least we beat the other franchise team
The regular man can never understand the enlightened
Dephh Mastercl(ass)
give him some time to get used to Vanity's calling style and he'll be back
C9 2-0
Classic lower bracket run
Wippie had ult for so many rounds just to not use it man
Edit: map 1 was just jokes, MAPS 2 AND 3 SHOW THE TRUTH

Oceania has more than 50 surgeons bro
A quick google search shows 1,293 surgeons in Australia alone
There are hundreds of thousands of surgeons and only 180 valorant franchise players
Being a surgeon isn't easy, but it's not as difficult as becoming a valorant pro.
Going to school is hard and all, but there are no barriers preventing someone with a strong work ethic from making it. In valorant, it doesn't matter how good your work ethic is, 99.999% of players will never become pro
It’s not “just immortals competing for radiant”, they have to rank up from diamond/ascendnt every act
Also, once again, there are less radiants than ivy league admits
Also finally, you don’t need to be in an ivy league to become a surgeon
They also had no safety net
EG would not have stayed in Valorant without Riot’s funding
Isn’t Verno too young for franchising
They also put a lot of money into CS, but since there was no safety net when it failed, they left the scene
they didn't put everything into their valorant team, they cut all their players
In pretty much every game that doesn't have franchising, EG left the game entirely
If there wasn't franchising, EG wouldn't be in valorant
Take these mickey mouse tournaments with a grain of salt
It was a problem before, the orgs were losing massive amounts of money trying to buy their way into franchising
orgs main source of income isn't enough for them to stay profitable, most are hemorrhaging money
The orgs that left valorant were only in because of franchising in the first place
they were competing to try and make it into franchising
getting rid of franchising would mean that orgs would have absolutely no stability, and if they have a single bad season they'd leave the game
I hope 100T lose so that we can have a franchise elimination match in the lower bracket haha
Esports is already incredibly unstable, getting rid of franchising would mean that many orgs would leave the scene
Oxygen has been a fully formed roster since September
100T got a new igl like a week ago
surely that would mean there's some different expectations
Do you seriously think that the franchise teams put the same effort into prep and strats as the ascension teams?
true, who cares about those 100T bums though
it's a mickey mouse tournament a week after a major update, taking these games 100% serious is a little questionable
The ascension teams are using this tournament as a way to prove that they can compete with franchise teams, and are taking it as seriously as possible
The franchise teams are using this tournament to get used to playing tournaments
there's a pretty big difference in motivation there
you don't need to get into an ivy league or get into a top school to become a surgeon
getting into an ivy league is easier than becoming a pro player
let's look at the numbers, and compare the precursor to becoming a Valorant pro, to your "precursor" to becoming a surgeon (even though only 8% of students accepted to grad schools went to an ivy league)
In order to become a pro player, you must be a radiant. There are only ever 2,500 radiants in THE WORLD at any time.
There are 8 ivy leagues, which each admit around 2,000 students a year, for a total admittance number of 16,000 ivy league students a year
It is more competitive to be a radiant than to get into an ivy league, and you DON'T need to go into an ivy league to become a surgeon
C9 was trolling, look at their icebox comp
It’s harder to become qualified as a pro than it is to become qualified as a surgeon, it’s harder to get a position as a pro than it is to get a position as a surgeon, and it’s harder to stay a pro than it is to stay a surgeon
I’m 100% confident that I (3.9 unweighted GPA, 1450 SAT) could become a surgeon, but I know for a fact that I could never become a pro player
Being a surgeon is difficult, but not as statistically impossible as becoming a pro
