Won't happen pcf has individually very talented players who can win rounds on their own you can't 26-0 them really

they played without 2 of their best players with clear downgrades on firepower in kickoff now with Echo back and Sopp being replaced by experienced and equally good Duelist who can second call in Izzy allows them to re-run their original compact trading gun game in this meta .

Very few people are aware here I guess but Izzy isn't a random rookie he is former VCT Masters player so he has done it at the topmost level in past and performed there.

XLG are now the final bosses of China EDG got nothing on them anymore let's go boys wp

It's fine but I like to use it with ADR metric bcz to me avg
damage per round is very fair metric add kast and if seeing support roles assists per round anyone who scored high in all 3 will be absolute best player in the level he is playing and there's no example with which you can deny this criteria in any level or league of valorant

I mean everyone kind of knows that by the end of ascension ULF was looking most solid and structured team and they looked better than BBL PCF boys at that time so maybe it's their time now to show it

reduxx out here covering his tracks lol

nope separate but it will overtake EWC as main competition in couple of years for sure people just are more hyped for ENC than they will ever be for EWC which is just another normal tournament

so teams with biggest fanbases and reach are always relevant and never leave the valorant scene regardless of whatever happens outside of them Riot will have guaranteed 36 orgs around always competing .

rank limits they won't allow if you are below immortal rank bcz you have no chances of winning against pros below that . and first round is always single elimination Bo1 so they can adjust any number and just let them play in one go and be done with it until they are down to top 128 or top 64 where they will start doing BO3 and then top 32 from where double elimination bracket will kick in

CUP will probably be 16 slots so you all are getting more than 2-3 slots people here are mixing partner slots with cup slots . Partner slots will probably be 4 NA , 2 BR , 2 Latam and if I have to guess double of these slots will qualify to international cups everytime from each region.

I don't think it was legal it's just Valorant isnt big enough for Indian govt to care and Riot let him play on OCI card which is overseas citizens of India thing which gives you lots of similar rights as citizens but still not citizenship. But afaik these 4 mentioned here aren't even eligible for OCI card as of now .

India doesn't allow dual citizenship

you are baiting with that title but It's the worst kept secret that until something goes horribly wrong for S8ul India's slot will go to them bigger fanbase better content more money more reach more presence GE literally relies on S8ul's creator for their watchparties and fan engagement they can't really compete with S8ul.

Yess they were unbeaten in 2023 and have also won Split 2 cup 1 in 2024 and split 1 2025. The ones they lost are 2 ascensions qualfiers where Antidote left the team 1 week before tournament and 1 in which their org owner didnt pay them(2024 split 1) and made them play on high ping from Dubai that's what I was referring to that whenever they played with their core in normal circumstances they have never lost since Franchising they have only lost due to weird situations which created instability and spoiled their prep and team environment. They have also lost like just 1 off-season Indian tournament in these 3 years that was also in GF to current RNTX core; they were the most dominant core in Indian Valorant's history since 2021/22 era itself.

Antidote Rawfiul Azys mostly but you can also include Tess and Levi/RVK in it

RNTX/Enigma core has been eliminating themselves for last 2 years if they didnt lose their IGL both times they would have won every year in India their full strength core hasn't lost one split in 3 years but they split themselves and lose the qualifiers for ascension since past 2 years.

What are you sayin bro - almost 32 countries have confirmed participation for valorant in nation's cup nd there may still be more infact 16 will get directly invited to main tournament

Finally GE will be able to win 2 back to back matches in their Franchising history xd

Indians don't really care about them but I am telling you rn they will try nd come back to South Asia

Riot just made it useless after yesterday's announcement lol

overall viewership doesnt drop in this system it just gets more spread Internationals will still have same peak viewership only qualifiers would be little lower viewership but it doesn't matter . Pre-2023 people cared more about their country/sub-region than particular teams and it was region to region rivalry we will be back to more of the same .

Today is the day we are rolling back the time with new VCT system so such days will return again - https://www.vlr.gg/34959/paper-rex-vs-supermassive-blaze-valorant-champions-tour-stage-3-masters-berlin-elimination-a

umm yess if they are actually serious they need a good foreign coach and 5 PH players who can understand and speak English to talk to coach but can play full tagalog when playing.

I would personally go -
Zeus(Main Duelist)
Azys(2Nd duel/FLEX)
KellyS(IGL/FLEX)
Tesseract(Initiator)
Hotsauz/JA(Controller/Sentinel)

I get that but they have already tried him in EMEA Clash he didn't do well there either when it was online at comfort of his home setup what made them believe in him after those performances that they not only signed him to their academy but also again chose him to stand-in LAN tournament ; I will never know

I am sure NAVI sees something in him besides him being from their home country but idk I have never watched him play in VCL he doesn't really stand out and he somehow plays even worse the moment you put him in NAVI I don't think is the best stand-in NAVI can afford

Rinsat shoots better than 99% of Indians who grind SG/HK so it doesn't really matter which server he grinds on. Nobody at his age in history of Indian PC scene was as good as he is so he is a natural talent. And I don't agree with Rite2ace always putting down Mumbai server while I agree with him that for his improvement Rinsat needs to grind on SG server but at this age him staying on Mumbai server pushes others to improve if all the top players leave the Mumbai server we will keep having dearth of talents and we will never have new talents like Rinsat.

Also on a sidenote it's funny Consz is first import who plays on Mumbai server sometimes even solo queues I wonder sometimes how is that as an experience for him lol.

and fun fact in VCL South Asia Split 1 he has absolutely insane FK/FD ratio he has 54 First Kills to 17 First Deaths after 6 matches.
I have never seen someone put such absurd numbers match after match it's like its impossible to trade him he plays it so smartly and even wins the duel major reason why AST is unbeaten so far despite 5 man Indian lineup.

Even trinity is 42/27 his fellow duelist so he is doing great in FK/FD too.

he is long time veteran was one of the best Indian player in CS hasn't had same success in Valorant though tbh he has never played for a stacked roster always playing in weaker teams. He is like the best sentinel in India and only Indian who knows how to play lurking sentinel properly and his gamesense is great like top tier . This Yoru meta means he is getting to play Duelist and farm.

he was a good igl but had weak firepower Xset was a top team and if G2 wasn't thrown out of partnership last minute due to Carlos being egoistic Dephh's career would have panned out differently bcz Xset together worked very well with Ayrin and Dephh calling Zekken and Cryo puttin the firepower and BCJ supporting them with util .

uhh not a good day for Karam1l's FK/FD ratio enjoyers today xd

nope he is canadian they are just of Indian ancestry can't play for India you need passport and citizenship

GDR just played the map on an elite level brilliant reads, strats and execs and RNTX had no answers

I think for now S8ul can simply put ANQ on duelist for the time being I am sure Yuvi can exchange his roles wih him and rest of the changes S8ul can look after the split is over

You would never be able to guess from scoreline lol it's from all the way back in 2020 and is still unbeaten record for most kills in a map at this level of competition - https://www.vlr.gg/2538/godsquad-vs-velocity-gaming-tec-challenger-series-ubf/?game=5120&tab=overview

Nd Deathmaker once dropped 49 in single map but how is all this relevant here man ?

Karam1l was on his best today and when he plays like that he is one of the best in the country so hardluck for RNTX

I think by the time Rinsat reaches 18 and becomes eligibile for VCT he will be very ready for it insane at just 16 years of age man has been destroying since he was 15

finally we are over fraudulent Masters and it's time for some real Valorant let's go India's Last Hope . s/

Cmon Nongshim complete the story just 2 more maps

I don't think he is tryharding lol he is just that much better than the lobby that him just shooting back is too much

Statement made by Enterprise for themselves nd VCL teams too .

tbh if I look at their trackers it looks like -13rd +Yokam and nothing else from Xipto bcz 13rd isn't queuing with Xipto boys since a week. Everyone else including JA,Yokam,Hotsauz, Emman and Coach JCL are even queuing deathmatches and matches together. Only Azys is aloof but he is barely playing anyways and when does queue ranked occasionally its with Yokam. SO its more likely Xipto is just changing a player nothing to do with Secret though there is a slim possibility that Secret may be trialing or picking Azys.

Yokam is joining Xipto its obvious but tbh he is queuing with Hotsauz too and other Xipto boys. If anything it looks like 13rd is gone for some reason and its like to like changeup at Xipto or maybe just maybe JA to Secret ?

Ara dropping that holy grail of abysmal ratings in split despite netting 3 kills

Move it to India cheapest place to host it nd no Indian ever plays in the league anyways so nobody can even understand casters here nd even think of cheating in these ways xd

you change your grps everytime you lose that's what the rule is don't go by vlr bracket consider alpha and omega as 2 separate brackets where losing means you go to try and win it all in the other brakcet

The kind of loss that ends up taking people's jobs away and they tell us EMEA Clash has nothing to play for xd

Stop putting all these players on Indian team you need passport to represent the country nd we don't allow duel citizenship so none of your main 5 except Heliff can rep India in ENC just like olympics nor will coaches you selected will be allowed to coach Team India. All of them are eligible only for team USA

It's not on Riot ENC follows Olympics rules completely so NZ nd Australia will compete separately

Zeus is highkey better Whitecat has same syndrome as Primmie more flashy with his aim but not as consistent as Zeus
