It’s like VCT is trying to wrap up their story lines like a final season or something. It’s gonna feel rushed and out of no where. #C9vs100TChampsGrandFinals

GenG win was hella deserved, it’s T1 that’s the biggest fluke and where the denial should start

What is the best matchup in ur opinion for the crowd?
Prx vs FS?

This is lowkey a good sign investment wise for orgs. You were kinda guaranteed to make it to an international if you put enough effort and time. But not sure if it was actually worth it tho.

Hence one year and not a life time ban

Meanwhile T1…

I’m saying that’s how it felt like, not what in reality happened. It felt like NS were handed the win by PRX but in reality they worked really hard to get there and win it. That’s the point, how it felt to watch.

Babybay was 1cm off winning that 1v3 too. But NS was definitely the better team that series.

No that’s not what I’m saying at all. This is entertainment at the end of the day and I’d rather watch NS battle through a full power PRX than what I just saw. I’m not saying their run was bad or they didn’t deserve anything, their struggles through premier and ascension make their story really nice. I’m just talking about this match.

Nah even if ur a fan of a team id rather see a close 3-2 win than a dominant 3-0 for the same reason I like see the protagonist struggle to get what they want instead of just getting it handed to them. (Like op character isekai)

You should also think of life this way imo but that’s not the point.

NS fully deserved it tho.

This is not true imo. When we say NRG are world champs, imo no one think of NRG as the best team of last year just that they won the biggest tournament. It has nothing to do with their dominance over that year. Same thing with EG and Fnatic. Fnatic was that best team of 2023 but EG just won the biggest tournament.

But World Cup and euros are different tournaments with different teams. There is no difference in champs and masters besides you have 4 more teams that never do anything.

Is it just me or does anyone else hate this narrative. Like I heard it first when meteor won back to back but it is completely meaningless. Back to back is supposed to show some type of dominance but if you remove champs ur just moving the goal post no?

Oh yea true, I thought u were talking about the past

Where u getting 3 from?

Yea why were they banning bind so much. They look really decent on it regionally. Maybe scrim results?

Yea the fact they made top 4 in a meta that most would’ve said they don’t fit at all is really impressive.

Thoughts on vitality spending so much money and having zero results? Edit: bruh u had a vitality flair when I last looked

Yes ofc

Brother saw one map

I think your just seeing the effect of the util nerf where players need to take more fight that are 50/50 to create advantages in the round. Don’t mean they are throwing, they could take better team fights tho.

Yea maybe it’s a deeper issue than I thought lol. It might be just them prioritizing hype reactions to engage viewers over the actual player who had the impact.

mb sometimes i just write what i say. curse of being a native speaker i guess

TLDR - Production shows lovers rock on replays and main camera when it was clearly Loita who had the impact

This is about the NRG vs BBL game and the replays just really ticked me off. Loita in that game had two huge plays at match points to keep them alive (Round 23 and Round 30). The replay first time showed lovers rock because he had a better reaction and Loita had to fix his earplug and stayed sitting. This is fine imo, but the next time in Round 30 it again showed lovers rock because again he stood up (lovers rock was clearly pointing at Loita and thanking him in the reaction too). Loita still had a good reaction that should of been shown more. This is super unfair to Loita who should have had the spotlight on him. My friend who is a casual thought lovers rock was Loita. A casual fan would not connect the dots especially since this is the first international BBL game. This is probably a huge non-issue but idk, I still feel like its important to address.

Ikr pansy and hypoc have been pretty neutral

He did tho

They have lives

They did it live and players mixed the balls. Look at the start of today’s stream.

But in Valorant I think it’s more on the coach than igl. Like the prep before the game and mental going into the game is much more important in valorant than any other game imo.

Bro even with invy they couldn’t do shit

Agreed

Lowkey super cool storylines if any Emma team wins. I would’ve hated FNC winning

I loved the theme of the opening of keep dreaming keep believing because anyone can really win this event from strong 1st seed newcomers to older teams that are starting weaker. Everyone is aiming to prove themselves with really no favourites.
The event also has Toronto vibes but better.

One look at odd taxi and he’ll think ur lying even tho.

F3 helps a lot. It’s basically turns rng to skill. Also mcsr filters seeds so most of the time they are next to each other you just have to look. But sometimes it’s so bad and depressing.

Speedrunning mb for not saying forget how big the game is

The game is so unique in the way that it all depends on you. I haven’t seen another ranked game that let you fully focus on your own game and nothing else. The rougelike aspect goes hard too. The random generation of the seed gives each game a different unique way of approaching things, but still having a ton of standardized things you can practice alot out of.

Lowkey the most fun I’ve had in a ranked game in a while. One small mistake and your run gets 10 mins added on. But man the feeling of winning a game and chasing your pb is so good. The game ain’t for the mentally weak, one small fuckup and there goes your game and your trying so hard not to ff and recover.

Xlg will go on a run to top 4. NRG aint ready. They will look completely different and throw off the nrg prep.

Anyone else started to play Minecraft ranked. The game is so unique in the way that it all depends on you. I haven’t seen another ranked game that let you fully focus on your own game and nothing else. The rougelike aspect goes hard too. The random generation of the seed gives each game a different unique way of approaching things, but still having a ton of standardized things you can practice alot out of.

The Santiago trophy has that design on the front that’s 100% a teaser for the new agent. The Madrid one had butterflies which teased clove but honesty that doesnt tease anything gameplay wise. But the new trophy has, what looks to me, sound waves coming from a speaker. I’m predicting the new agent will be based on sound since Valorant currently has a gap there in terms of agent design. I don’t think it will actually have abilities that use sound cause that just seems pretty useless but just sound themed. Thought? Is it confirmed to be an initiator?

Inspire as a rookie is so funny

JoshRT said this in an interview that the prx style was inspired by old Faze and the smeag. Soooooo babybay is technically the og w key style.

Ok it was Verno’s position that made him do that. Bad info but yeah bad ult.

Yeah I don’t think he thought they were planting especially in the open

Pros don’t try new things idk why. They lack whimsical progression.

I think that’s a team and org problem. There are off season events that they can participate in to play at least some matches that aren’t scrims but most don’t so it’s on them imo.

Bro the format is not even that bad rn plus it’ll completely change next year.

Unlucky we can only pray for next year 🙏

Snowball heavy game would be the reason I guess
