They weren't just ranked players before this. All of them have been in a team before.

IDK why he is hellbent on making neon work. He is decent with other agants too (according to chobra, the nongshim stan). 2 bad series in a row honestly.

GE's 1st year team with monyet, texture and Ayrin wasn't even that bad. The org has -ve aura in international tournaments.

DFM exists, the consistency is unreal. It's actually hard for GE to beat DFM, even tho they keep trying every year.

You never know. They already lost patrik due to visa issues. Playing with deryeon, if it doesn't work, they will start again with patrikwho. If it doesn't work, will they start again?

I just tried their shrimp noodles, actually S-tier.

Patrikwho not playing because of visa issue is so annoying. Riot needs to have a different base location. Players with strongest passport don't even travel (US and Korea).

Boom played so well, I'm now worried for GE. If GE ends up at the bottom of regular season, people in this forum will rally behind the idea of kicking them out.

BME could have won 2-0. Made too many mistakes. NT.

Recency bias is really getting to you TBH.

Can't agree with the position of chinese teams here. We need a team from each region in F (expected to end at 12th position in regular season). For me, Furia, Boom (not GE because this new team is looking good even when their dualist has not reached the bootcamp), titan and m8 are the only team which belong in F.

Rossy took it personally against t1

We have mongolian and kazakh players farming, Indians are washed 🥲🥲

I agree with 1st, GE is at least better than their previous roster.

Most good teams are either playing at redbull or radiant asia. There's also challenger's league going on in SEA. What were you expecting? This is basically scrims being broadcasted, not every team agrees to it.

How is this even possible? Level 5 is new and unstructured but I thought those guys are naturally talented. Two straight losses?

For me, yes it is.

They are all playing mostly the same comp. Why would you show all your maps and comps even before the season starts? This is more of a practice for comms and pressure handling than agents, comps and strats.

Azys is honestly wasting his time with SA. He needs to go back and prove himself in SEA, specially when path to Ascension is going to be harder next year.

These scrims don't matter enough?

I agree with this post. Whether it's fair or not, they have advantage or not is a totally different debate(which will not just be limited to valorant), and I feel the community is too small and young to discuss that. The fact is, tourney is for females and marginalized genders. It's just dumb of people to hate certain players. We should celebrate that the game has something to cater to for females and other genders, rather than being dominated by just men like in other games.

Sean said they wanted to trial flor for ascension shopify team but some dates were clashing with GC.

All I see is an asian MVP

It's 4:40 am here right now. Wait for at least 4 more hours lol.

Chill. They were playing against nirodh.

SEN Sick

Huh?

All philipino roster makes sense. Indonesia already has 2 teams in the league. As far as SEA talent is concerned, only Philippines or Thai has large enough talent pool. Based on results, Indian players are mid to bottom. Korea, Japan already has too many teams in league too. So talented players have to be in Philippines or Thailand, given only one team from each region.

They both are kazakh. Krystal is Russian. All 3 are considered imports for Pacific league.

What do you expect t3 teams from SA? Why would you even watch it lol? Even the tournament is just a filler and has no value.

Xipto gave away a few rounds just for finals to cross 3 hr mark.

GE ran out of money during the 1st year of franchise itself, leading to payment delays. That was however, something not under their control. They ran out of the limit the Government set that you can transfer from Indian bank to a foreign country.

GE's fanbase is divided. They won't take Indian players since they don't want to perform bad. The SEA+imports they got didn't perform well either.

I however my take is, all this doesn't matter. GE needs to succeed with international/SEA players and garner some international fanbase outside of India. India being a low income economy doesn't help them. Indian valorant viewership isn't huge. They had among the lowest bundle sales. This will eventually matter the most to Riot. Performance was never the criteria for franchise initially.

GE gets hate from 15 y/o because they can't comprehend the fact that Indian players aren't good enough. Their reasoning is, GE is doing bad either way with 4 other players too. Somehow, good players don't perform in GE too. Benkai actually had a bad season. Polvi became mid along with Blazeking, who were supposed to carry the team. I'm pretty sure these guys will perform really well, similar to last year how Texture and Monyet reached masters or their ex-coach Eraser almost getting Rare Atom into ascension.

Had this issue last year. Game used to freeze and crash on either match loading or ending screen, during the white transition. Turned out one of my RAM was bad. switched to another pair and issue never reoccurred, until the used the bad pair of RAM again. The RAM issue only occurs in Valorant, it passes the real benchmark without any issues.

I have no friends, and the ones I have are busy changing diapers (Yes I'm old).

They already used both their timeouts earlier. Don't blame the coach.

losing map (icebox) to a sage wall is so sad. NT purr.

Lol look at the amount of hate they got when they announced the roster, every player was called out.

Best logo vs best name, should be close.

It's basically all of GE. GE manages to bring the worst out of every individual that joins them.

Ganges water is generally not used for drinking. It is considered holy and sprinkling it (just a few drops is considered lucky. I have never been asked to drink it. You also need to consider India is huge, and ganges water is not available everywhere, and this happens predominantly in northern indian states. India also has a diverse culture hence a very small population does that.

It used to be real almost 20-25 years back. Indian economy was at it's weakest during the mid-90's, which wasn't very long ago.

They already changed it.

It's definitely not Latam channel.

No need for Indian quota player slot, just for others to carry and rethink roles mid season. Indian players haven't proven their worth even in t2. This offseason should be a litmus test.

Gotta check his ACS, must be at the bottom, because ADR surely would be.

Please don't jinx it like everyone did for m80

My GPU blew up at the start of this month. Not grinding this act, so IDK.

Chill out. SPG has had really good games but they haven't looked flawless. Riddle order came close. SPG won ascent based on two hero sheriff rounds. You honestly don't want to jinx their run like everyone did for m80 is all I'm saying.

DSG is unbeaten on Ascent. IDK who let that slide into the veto.
