a bad game doesnt dictate a teams skill, this is what i cant stand about valo tards its almost like yall have only ever interacted with valorant esports and think youre a scholar on the subject.
There are so many variables that you have to take into account, a team cant be 100% every game and sometimes they even fall to less than 50% of their typical level but that doesnt mean theyre a bad team, they just need to bounce back.
Lev wouldve put up a really good fight against Navi had they been playing the way they did in their match against Zeta. Zeta didnt even look bad as well, Lev were just that much better

man i get so tired talking to people that just dont get it

Their split defense was completely fine, Sen were a pretty standardly good team but they went against the sharpest spear in valorant history. FNC are just that much better, weve seen them destroy other teams on other maps, hell they even rolled an insane team like Navi. By the end of the game Navi looked like they were just stuck, it was similar to how sen just didnt know what to do to adapt to a team that just shoots you whenever you try anything, or brim ults, fade seizes, kayo flashes, and flanks 3 of your team in one go before they have a chance to react.
Sen looked worse cause of how well FNC read and adapted to everything sen were doing. Sen had holes and you just cant have that against FNC, they also could use their insane talent to out aim FNC cause its pretty much an even or slightly leaning towards FNC (heavily on the day) in terms of mechanical talent.
FNC stuck with their core while Sen are p much a shell of Xset + better players. Ofc FNC were gonna win 10/10 times

yea but it isnt because theyre bad but because they were choking hard. Weve already seen 100T play at a high level but since sean left they just havent had the confidence to play the way they did before. Its like a fighter jett without a pilot. What use is a powerful jet without a jet pilot? Either Mikes needs to get his shit together or get a really good in game coach

KOI is ballsacks. I dont know where the fuck people get the idea theyre good. Koldamenta is hella oldschool, hes pretty good with fundamentals but not much more, trexx is cracked and sheydos was p bad at lockin
Dont even fucking get me started on the one time wonderkid starxo

i really dont think vitality can be a top contender at all. Theyre good but theyre a Kru kinda team where i doubt they could consistently do any major damage

my region? EMEA is weaker than EMEA?

the fact that you didnt even mention Leviatan just goes to show that you arent paying attention in the games. Lev were probably the only team to play multiple maps perfectly in the entire event

oh yea lets just randomly claim out of nowhere that Giants had absolutely no practice. Makes sense honestly, it wasnt like they had great execs and site holds with coordinated utility usage especially on Lotus or anything. So yea theyre probably gonna be the greatest team in the world honestly my bad

giants have some potential but the rest i just dont see
TL i think just werent ready, they will come back super strong

compare it to EMEA now. Other than Navi and FNC what teams even pose a threat to them?

SEN were literally the only team apart from loud and Navi that put up a decent fight.
100T constantly threw and they started winning rounds on Icebox when FNC were just absolutely trolling.
Furia pulled out a weird ass comp tho i will give them credit on haven they are really good tho i dont think theyre much more than that. FNC didnt play too well against Furia but they looked super solid and drilled against SEN.
With the way Navi got rolled tho id comfortably claim that SEN are pretty good near the top of NA.

Sen 100T are 1000% ahead of EMEA
I doubt NRG would be able to beat Lev esp the way they are now. Lev are so fundamentally strong and their maps are the exact ones NRG are good at. So especially with the slow starts NRG tend to have, id give it easily to Lev

I highly doubt FUT is 8th in EMEA with the way they played. Even if they are tho it was pretty clear 100T could easily win but they were under the stress from the tournament and they were choking. It was their theme the entire tourney and it is what it is. They need to gain their confidence again and get back to the level they were at in Champs cause weve already seen what level these players can play at.

yea but you need to remember its Americas, not NA.
LOUD and LEV are both p much guaranteed to qualify and right after id say is NRG and below them SEN/100T. SEN and 100T both would beat majority of the EMEA teams present at Lock In

he was never a solution, hes just there to fill the sub spot. Hes pretty good but they just dont need him and he also isnt an upgrade from Buzz or Rb.

They need a new IGL desperately but im so conflicted on who i think should be dropped cause theyre all really good. Id say currently Buzz is the worst but even then hes still insane. Also swapping out your duelist would mean you need a duelist to fill the role and a duelist IGL is insanely hard to come by (a good one). DRX fr at a crossroads. Maybe they can do something similar to Xset where they had 2 igls for different sides. Zest with his slow playstyle can cover defense and stax ATK but again Stax isnt exactly stronger on his ATK side so even then it isnt a foolproof solution

Its so sad that the one time FNC wins a tourney, they bring about an entire season of mediocrity to come. Not from FNC themselves but the fact that theyve secured another slot for EMEA is depressing. I honestly dont think any team in EMEA right now as their teams stand (other than TL) will be able to compete at the top level. All the teams just scream mediocre.
I think Americas is clearly the most stacked region and they definitely deserve that 4th slot more than EMEA and Pacific

nah hes still pretty decent. Just look at DFM, they probably have 3 of the worst players in all of esports history honestly

He isnt wrong actually. DRX lack so many things on the strategic side but theyre all individually super talented. They need a new IGL cause Stax just isnt cut out for that role. Hes great early round and when it comes to setups but when it comes to macro and micro as well as midrounding he just doesnt seem to know what to do, especially in pressure scenarios.

that is WWWWWW

It wasnt fair why exactly? How many chances has he had now? Leaf, Xeppa, Mitch, and Xeta who eventually became the best player on the team were some of the greatest players in NA and yet somehow C9 fail over and over again.
Vanity has had like 3 good runs? Its sad that people think hes the guy thats leading his team to victories when hes got insane talent like that on his team. On top of that he gained access to even greater players like yay and zellsis and still wasnt able to do jack shit. He managed to make yay look worse than his average which is honestly impressive, i didnt think anyone could be that bad at IGLing

i dont think it was a toss up at all. Chronicle still had so many shaky moments where he looked lost and didnt rlly do much in some of the games. I think Leo had ONE bad map and that was it. The rest of the time he was constantly getting 3 kills in the span of a few seconds and would have so many different util lineups or just generally rlly good supporting util. He is for sure one of the greatest to ever touch the initiator role.

why did you even reply

i agree with a lot of things you have to say but youre really making it seem like depph and zekken didnt play rlly poorly. They did, its a fact; dont try to change that just because you like them or you think its unfair that theyre receiving this hate.
Just tell people not to hold grudges and move on. Everyone has a bad day here and there

zander isnt that good either tho, he just has high fragging and great cheese setups and plays. People overrate him so much for a few decent games its crazy.
I loved V1 when they cameback cause they looked rlly good but if it wasnt consistent then clearly they werent that good because of zander himself. I assume immi also didnt have much to do with it cause G2 dont look like thye play the style that V1 did. It was prob just honeymoon

this is too true

forehead bigger than a tea farm, all she got is followers and followers are free these days

local indonesian languages are a lot more like their own languages than anything. In fact Malaysian is more similar to Indonesian than most "dialects".
You would not understand anything said by the people on a different island because theyre virtually speaking a different language with different slang and altered grammatical structure

bro chose the wrong flag x_x

Valorante

ugly. when she’s ugly. that was the end of the post. and she’s proving it even more rn

nono i can indeed approve the fact that this is 100% not judgemental and is equality approved. This man is simply stating irrefutable fact

fr ong she lookin like the women sleepin on the benches on the side of the street at 3 am with loose clothes after finishing business

ugly. when she’s ugly. that was the end of the post. and she’s proving it even more rn

alright here lemme be super specific for you because you clearly dont know what probably means
Sentinels have the most B tier A tier and S tier tourney wins where the competition were actually considered to be formidable during the time at which they competed.
DRX/VS have a million C tier and B tier wins and quite a few A tiers as well but does it really matter when the opposition in Korea got wiped everytime they attended lan?
And if it really does matter to you then sure, sen have the second most 1st place finishes. Either way my original point still stands you havent proven anything really

and thats crazy cause if you asked me to even name 10 na igls id struggle

fr x_x he has like 4 good rounds in his entire career

if you think this is losing it that means youre sheltered as fuck

the entire point is that he DOESNT have anyone that wants to be beside him x_x
he isnt close to his family, he got dumped by his "gf" and now the entire internet is against him
he talked to his close friend kyedae and she felt overwhelmed and didnt want to be the one to hear it
and now hes on twitter and everyones just hating him and blocking him for what? tf did he do?

before i took a 5 month break for uni i was asc2 my peak was d3 99RR right before ascendant was added.
Now im D2 tho now that ive actually decided to think while playing my winrate has gone up from under 45% to 55%

sad how people are only on his side now after hes been dropped

thats justifiable completely but i dont even know how people are villanizing him right now. Its gross, the entire val community and surrounding are filled with idiot incels that hate because its fun and they dont understand

L

bro doesnt solo any igl period wyoa

yea cause at the end of the day Sykko is doing dephhs job for him. Dephh was never good at igling but sykko was the one who turned him into someone who could

shahz was a real igl meanwhile dephh was half of one. He only ever igled during either attack or defence idr which

shahz is 20x better than dephh in literally everything, fragging, mid rounding, anti strating, mental reset on the team, disciplining, trading. Literally everything an igl possesses shahz is better than him at.

honestly dephh is making a huge L move maybe the worst move out of everyone second to caris.
IDK why the fuck hed tolerate that kind of behaviour from his wife cause i definitely wouldnt from my own. There was nothing hostile in any of sicks tweets towards the current team so idk why tf they took it that way

there are many worse franchised orgs. Not saying sen arent bad but you make it seem as if esports orgs are majority good which just isnt the case

but then the statement of them not winning anything is false isnt it? SEN probably have the most 1st place finishes than any other team in all of valorant history so that statement would be the least accurate for them
