More like FNC carrying EMEA this whole year

They could run TenZ on KAY/O for Fracture
I don´t think it would be that crazy to see zekken on Raze for Lotus they could use:
TenZ on Omen
pANcada on Omen, TenZ on Killjoy
Marved on Omen, pANcada on Viper and TenZ on Killjoy

I think GFUEL is also a sponsor

At least 500k
The opening match of the season, also SEN VS 100T had 400k viewers, this match means a lot for both teams

FUT is already better than NAVI

The org owns the spot or the players?

I doubt one of M80 wants to be a 6th, they Will most likely get offers to start in a lineup or stay in tier 2 and qualify next year

Flyuh doesn't play sentinel right?
I think what most teams are missing is a solid sentinel player but there's none on the list

I think some of them could be an upgrade for franchising, the only issue i see with most of them is the experience
Who would you trade them with?

I´m guessing they will add more teams once they get the max amount of teams in each league

This year's split + masters was 2 and a half months, it was a short season overall, I hope we get a longer season next year

I hope they don't or at least rest the teams during the playoffs, so the players won't be so exhausted and the games will have a higher level

Will next year's playoffs have 8 teams or 6 teams?

I hope we get 8 teams on playoffs and also a longer split duration, this year VCT ends in august, leaving us with 4 months without matches.

If the duelist is the last alive, he isn't making a good job

.

They had the whole season to fix it, and yet they still did it on Playoffs

I hope we get some good matches for LCQ, don't want it to be super one sided

One of the main issues with LEV is that when they start losing rounds they start saving without thinking in the other team's economy

Liquid won 4/6 pistols and had +8 first kills in Haven, the fact they didn't win speaks for it self

Since last year?

Would like to see Apeks vs FNC

It was probably going to be their pick

T1 is the same team that pushed 5 maps against DRX with Zest

The game starts at 10 pm for me
I Will do my Best to watch it live tho

Tex better Chamber, Saya better duelist

Both are good but Saya is better for this meta

NRG?

To be honest I hope they go to playoffs over EG, EG looks good on group stage with prep time, but hasn't looked great o brackets beafore

The problem with EG's Pearl comp was not having a duelist, that's why they got 13-0ed
if they win against NRG, it wouldn't be that crazy as EG's core has won already against NRG's core

EG does well on group stage for the preparation they have on other teams, not sure if they will go far on playoffs tho

I think one of the reasons pANcada went to SEN was Sacy going there too

This!!!
The atmosphere of LudwigxTarik invitational was so good, maybe some top T2 teams, now that Ludwig owns MxM

He will Flex for the team, hopefully we see Marved and pANcada play smokes on double controller comps, and Zekken plays Killjoy/Raze

They play 24 rounds, 12 rounds each side

If it happens then surely they put pANcada and Marved on smokes when they run double controller comps right?

Why wouldn't they put 2 of the top 3 controllers on their roles when running double controller comps, Marved on Viper and pANcada on Astra, Brimstone and Omen
If it's a one controller comp then let Marved have it and pANcada on killjoy

Where did you get this rumores from?

They have to win next map to make a full 2-0 week,
I think they have it easy unless FUR changed their comp or mwzera goes crazy and drops 30+ like their latest Haven games

What happened?

TH, DFM and KRU are the worst from each league so far

What if they bring Marved and try him on Smokes IGL?

He mentioned he was mid'rounding a lot on the past 2 matches

Americas is on the weekends, VCL NA is on week days

The least worst team means the best team, being the best isn't the same as being good

SEN has improved a lot since the first week

They went from barely winning to 100T, they lost to NRG, but then had a close series against LEV and now LOUD

I wonder what they could've done if they had more time or started playing with their prefer roles before playing NRG, LEV and LOUD

It was a nice surprise in the first game, but they still lost, they should have switched to killjoy after that

If they don't keep Marved, I would see better chances with TenZ/Zekken playing sentinel, when they aren't on duelist and let pANcada return to lurking with smokes

We are talking of a 4-5 days max roster, they probably couldn't practice enough on all maps, but they have a chance against MIBR

Even after they win on first map it was going to be very difficult for them to take the series after practicing with this team for less than a week

They lost today, but I'm confident they have a fair chance against MIBR on Sunday and they need to win against C9/MIBR to make playoffs

pANcada has seem more confortable on sentinel, and definetly has improved in that role

Sacy returned to initiator were he definetly is a top player in the world

Sacy is back on initiator, that's why

As far as i know ScreaM wanted to IGL

It isn't all on Newzera, they look more confident and are playing together, KAY/O has utility to support the team now

They passed the average rounds won on the last 2 matches and look more coordinated

ScreaM looks like he is getting his confidence back, XMS looks crispy today, ZE1SH's flashes had great value

It looks good so far, but we still need to see them on attack, they used to hit the site in the last 15 seconds, tlet's hope it doesn't go that way
