Bruh 1 game
Sen lost their first game so did KC just wait and see.

Those 3 are damn good

How is he getting blamed?

The only player that fragged

just Ange1 having one of those games

Madrid is in Europe be happy you got no tech pauses at an international event

They're the future man same as TH with Wo0t (both teams will have 5 fraggers)

in scrims
source: Johnqt

Breeze prime Gambit
(Guild and TL were really good as well)

Icebox has to be one of the Fnatic iterations no?

Not even a doubt

They go 5-1 but Fnatic, KC and Vitality go 6-0 and TL doesn't make it to playoffs

Hahahaha
Fnatic/KC/Vitality will indeed farm the other group and go 4-2 at the very least

Could definitely see TL go 3-3 or even 4-2 but only get 4th place and not make playoffs

They've got shooters all around so it's gonna be exciting to watch Vitality

If they can play on stage like they do in scrims they will be a contender team

You don't need to see them to make these conclusions

Heretics should've done way better than 0-2 at Madrid and will only get better like way better.

Vitality already looked promising without Trexx and have 5 heavy fraggers on their team even the IGL

KC kinda dropped to their worst level at Madrid due to lack of experience imo

Fnatic no motivation, barely practiced for kick-off compared to most teams

Tournaments

Fnatic in actual form
Vitality with their cracked roster
TH with their full roster and experience
KC with the experience under their belt

(NAVI and FUT solid as well)

Who will get first?

They're all gonna go at least 4-2

I think Fnatic got the advantage since they play a weakened TH which will be their hardest opponent.

Stomping TL is like stomping a dead horse

The players on that roster should tell you enough
They're stacked top to bottom since Cender is a fragging IGL as well

can he finally get picked up by a real team?

how are they dogs against TL?
TL cooking or what?

3 of the best maps not in rotation

x1.15 for Fnatic??
Surely that's just because Heretics play without Miniboo?

1. FPX stomped them on Bind (run a normal comp hello we are talking about PRX) Fpx beat them fair and square nothing tragic.
2. They won those close maps at Masters Reykjavik so Loud returned the favor at champs and made it 1-1 in terms of titles so very fair W.
3. Fnatic beats EG in grand finals anyways not tragic at all (Fracture rematch would be even closer, Fnc Pearl unknown they could still turn up on the day with some weird comp and stomp, Split FNC win, Haven FNC win, Ascent FNC probably win as well.)
4. not good enough I guess (NRG should've stomped if they were as good as advertised)
5. DRX chokes anyways not tragic at all

Actual tragic would be Gambit not closing out Icebox against Acend. (or PRX playing their old comp in the grand finals of champs + not picking Pearl)

288 edpi
Went from 400DPI 0.72 sens to 800 DPI 0.36 Sens recently

Can't even crack top 4

Deffo not Sentinels

PRX banned it so ask them xd

How did you manage to get so many wrong

PRX v Fnatic

Gen.G v NRG

TH v LEV

BLG v T1

SEN v NAVI

DRX v LOUD

EDG v KC

Vitality v 100T

FPX v FUT

Bro Fnatic and Optic banned Ascent against FPX that should say enough

I don't care that they were undefeated when FPX was straight up the best in the world at Ascent and it was their best map

FPX Ascent was too good tho

Nah you can't say that
NRG could've beaten them in a BO5 for sure with the amount of experience they had on that roster

EMEA wins both Shangai and Champions

Pause

Yes but he won't come close to top 5 for the rest of the year

He's not better than any of the Vit players

I feel bad for the guy aaaaaaarhhh

Needs to be on a T1 team asap

1. Sentinels will have a hard time trying to make Shangai (They will for sure make playoffs but I see NRG topping their group so they will have to win a couple of series to make Shangai which could be tricky)
2. Gen.G will own Pacific and easily top their group and will only have to win 1 series in playoffs to make Shangai so they are a lock.
3. Same story as Gen.G
4. Loud same story as Sentinels but with Lev (if they don't implode) instead of NRG so I could genuinely see a Loud v Sen match for the last spot at Shangai.
5. KC will also have a difficult road to make Shangai (I see Fnatic/Vitality topping their group so they will have to win a couple of series to make Shangai and I think it will be too hard and they don't make it to Shangai)
6. EDG will top their group and make grand finals at least so they are a lock for Shangai since China is too easy for them.
7. Team Heretics might struggle early on (Fnatic and Vitality first two games but if they manage to beat one of those 2 teams they will top their group and only need 1 win in playoffs to make Shangai and I see them making it there.)
8. I think FPX will win Stage 1 in China and possibly win a series in Shangai backed by the home crowd.

None of the EG players are frauds
They're the most talented team NA has ever produced (not one bad player in that roster)

Asian team
EMEA team not named Fnatic
underdog team from Americas

1. Sentinels
2. Gen.G (would be 1 but they choked)
3. Paper Rex
4. Heretics
5. NRG
6. Loud
7. KC
8. Fnatic
9. EDG
10. Navi

400 and we've got a deal

Ethan for sure ain't no flex when he acutally played the least amount of roles on his own team.

Chronicle is actually a flex player on his team since he fills in the gaps while his teammates only play 1 role but yeah i do get the argument but overall he's played a lot of different roles and agents throughout his career.

Optic at 10 could actually be factual tbh
Aren't they the only teams that losy 2 series at the tournament they won? Yes Fpx did as well but with a sub and then didn't lose with Suygetsu.

Also weaker field
Basically only the 3rd and 4th best team of EMEA at the tournament

They ain't hungry anymore

Not making an international event might wake up them up

Champions is the only thing they really have their eyes on tho they will be the favorites to win champs no matter what

1. Fnatic if they actually tryhard
2. TH if they can find similar synergy with Wo0t
3. Vitality will come out swinging
4. KC kinda peaked already (I hope not)
   5-6. FUT/Navi will make the playoffs and challenge for the international spots

The rest

FUT
RRQ
LEV
VITALITY
TS
100T

S+ tier: Fnatic Tokyo, Champions Loud (almost flawless runs and flawless teams)
S tier: Berlin Gambit, Champions EG, Lock/in Fnatic, Reykjavik Optic, FPX Copenhagen (all of them were sort of beatable at the tournament but turned up when it mattered most and lock/in tax puts Fnatic down)
A tier: Acend Champions, Sen Reykjavik (Gambit should've probably won and first tournament tax)

(Can't rate Madrid Sen right now since I don't know how good the field actually was)

Nah Masters Tokyo Fnatic got disrespected and Masters Berlin Gambit got straight up violated

Bro knows Sen has peaked already

Saadhak is doing all of the cooking anyways make him the coach xd
But yeah the man is still way too good at the game to consider coaching

https://www.vlr.gg/event/stats/466/valorant-champions-tour-stage-3-masters-berlin
2nd best rated player at Masters Berlin behind Yay

2023 yeah his champs was awful but easily still a top 10 player in 2024
