well said.

which event, that's it. Now franchising, no?

We?

No way Shao makes it

I hecking love Tenz

NAH WILL RUIN THE SATISFACTION OF WINNING COPENHAGEN

Vitality?

I will delete my VLR account if Faze go 5 - 0

I'll be back when they don't :)

Derke and Alfajer will outperform every NA player at Copenhagen, calling it now while the doubters are here

Guild are the XSET of EMEA, Guild have made it so XSET are bound to make it

Lol idm if 100T don't win either they're a mess of an org

Yeah but they haven't gone 100% on it since Iceland and Fnatic are insanely good at Fracture, it is the only other map I am confident Fnatic have a good chance at winning on besides Icebox, maybe Bind too.

Don't get me wrong though I am not saying they aren't S-tier at the map, but considering they don't have a bad map specifically, I just think there is something there for Fnatic to exploit (only Fnatic) there

Icebox is 100% not Optic's strongest map and if you think that you are delusional

Sinatraa said Sentinels or nothing, also he doesn't deserve a spot, excluding his action which are subjective (no one asked but imo reprehensible),
He has to prove himself in the lower leagues after a year out the game - that is only logical ranked means nothing and the game has change so much since then.

You have to be a good org, Sentinels shouldn't get one, but you're right it is possible.
With Overwatch it was tough to get a franchising spot, even FNATIC didn't get one.
Different game though I know, but I am gonna trust RITO for once.

You need to watch more closely man

Would love to see that honestly

I HAVE AN IDEA. INHALES GALLONS OF COPIUM

• Kyedae is on 100T and I am not a huge fan of Will, would love to see that switch.
• Nadeshot showed interest in him previously but his C9 buyout was too big then.

My main issue with Tenz is I haven't seen him enough or at all really on Chamber and his his very inconsistent Raze.

Nah but Tenz has had really bad games, Yay has never had an awful game in Valorant and is on a unstructured org, maybe what you're saying could make sense but that's an awful example

No yeah that's totally fair it's just post-Reykjavik they played Faze & Sentinels on it and I whilst they won I thought it wasn't as strong as their other maps, but they haven't lost on it this year I think so I am happy to take it back with more evidence.

any team can lose on any day it's better not to look at teams like they're invincible, even ones as good as Optic

Yeah me too, there is a big gap between Optic and Fnatic and other teams in their regions atm

It's why I said could, that point was very speculative

DEFINETLY NOT on a downwards slope but chamber suits him less than Jett so maybe a lower peak than last year but he will always be nuts. Considering his Jett was so good last year he never had to swap lol

He isn't trash, just because he isn't dominant doesn't make him trash stop being so bi-polar about your views on players, people like you are why players look at the community badly. THINK!

still a minority of people

Bang is the best player on 100T by far

This the best I got:

• Being at the top makes you a target everyone will be studying the shit out of Optic and never taking them lightly, it could also encourage less grinding.
• Sometimes they're inconsistent as team regardless of individual performances, they are only human.
• Think back to Optic Vs. The Guard, Loud, Xerxia, X10, V1 as well as the Gambit game in 2021. In some cases you don't get rematches...
• P4P the competition is increasing so teams like Fnatic and Loud could also level up to compete and beat them.
• Furthermore, Marved had some ridiculous clutches at Reykjavik, which cannot be maintained in EVERY game I think
• Also they have a weak Icebox and Fracture compared to their other maps, which are Fnatic's best maps.

Some of these are speculation, some not, but Optic are a great team this the best I got lol

ZETA

lol

loving the copium positivity

Yeah lol, thespike.gg is so much worse

SHOULD BE

Also Guild being 7th atm is a crime, hopefully all will be at equilibrium post play-offs.

1. Fnatic
2. FPX
3. Guild
4. M3C
5. G2
6. ACEND
7. Team
   8+. WHO CARES

W Take

After Liquid's loss, FNATIC break into the vlr.gg top 3 EMEA rankings for the first time ever.
Weird I know, but Fnatic previously peaked twice at 4th:

• 5th Just before the start of M1 2021: https://www.vlr.gg/rankings/europe/23/vct-stage-2-3
• 4th Post Champs: https://www.vlr.gg/rankings/europe/115/vct-champions

The team have deserved this for a while and VLR will soon be forced to put FNATIC at no. 1

he will be missed, but he probably should go back to CSGO

I am happy now they role swapped him :)

DESERVED.

no logic or compassion

whats the country that ur flag is from

<3

Really feeling out the role now

Can we make a bet, real money?

Day the GOAT

Jammpi has been SO inconsistent recently I am pretty upset with his play, he isn't in the same league as the 3 I mentioned in my opinion

WHEN THE ROSTER WAS MADE A MONTH AGO XD

I want a Team Liquid restructure around Nivera & Scream (and maybe Soulcas)
Maybe DavidP would be a good IGL replacement for that core, has those Belgian roots and a good record especially with Giants
