Fr, qck stocks rising.
Issue is Brazils tangent pipeline to tier 1 doesn't exist so they can't find any young cracked duelist very easily. You gotta settle with what you have and fix up the strats to accommodate

So now we know why he doesn't wanna play duelist

They try too hard sometimes yk?

So you're saying if they had the best support in the game over ardiis who was having a shit year that they'd achieve higher highs?
I never thought about it that way, you're kinda smart, wow

The only thing in someone's head is this guy getting you triggered when he sees your 0/8 bait ☠️

We got rid of the crypto thrower and Nepo daddy, we good now

This guy gets screwed wherever he goes man, even going crazy in this match saadhak is throwing on neon and the rest are mid asf other than caua

This year will be the only champs that's actually significantly higher in level of play compared to the masters of the same year because many teams are actually competing this year and a lot of big name teams didn't end up making it.
This'll be the first 16 team even where it actually gets harder due to having 16 teams attend where there's enough room for all the best teams

The storylines will come up once we're there, right now there are a few like Prx v Sen redemption, likely there'll be China v boostio, and probably TH finally being able to not choke a GF if they end up winning which would be a MASSIVE storyline if it happens

THEY DONT x_x, scream is a flex, keiko is an entry

theyre really bad at ecos so im guessing they wanna try to get a high potential gun that doesnt require a hero buy

the IGL wouldve stopped 100T from winning so many rounds in the first place. The IGL would stop them from overheating. The IGL would call strats that makes it easier for the entries to pop off. The IGL would be sacrificing his stats to boost everyone elses stats

except everyone on GenG is one of the best on the team
Mindfreak has never been the best since copenhagen

so how we doin this?

PRX fans deserve it for shitting on Monyet when he was literally the only reason they got as far as they did in Madrid

he somehow cursed both teams he had winning

4th as a placement alone isnt bad but you gotta look at the context, fnc were playing like shit, they didnt trade, they had stiff looking execs, their reads were off, placement and timing was bad, individuals were terrible.
They got 4th but they didnt really go against any challenging teams during that run apart from Loud who absolutely tore them apart in both matches

Is this not just proof that Boaster isnt on the same level as Saadhak and FNS. Even Angel hasnt had a falloff this bad other than when cNeds agent pool was their downfall. Boaster has always been a decent IGL but I dont think ive ever seen him as a world class IGL (this is from a FNC fan of 3.5 years btw).
He has players that at their best are on par with everyone at the top of the world rn but they always look abysmall and just rely far too much on heroics. (their split was rlly good tho)

no actually that Bind was a masterclass, they gave absolutely no room for PRX to do anything at all. It looks like they might even beat 100T playing like that (on bind at least)

Most Minnie Mouse tournament ive ever watched in my life

fr Doug is one of the only casters that properly convey hype. Babybay and Doug do stutter a lot but who cares, they breakdown the game and do a good play by play

truuuee

THIS GUY IS SO BAD AND IVE BEEN SAYING IT SINCE TOKYO, FUCK IVE BEEN SAYING IT SINCE PRE FRANCHISE AND HOW THEY KEPT HIM FOR FRANCHISE.
I do love it when he throws tho.

C0m is literally the worst player on the team and you cant deny it
Replace c0m keep the rest

Like look at this spectacular gameplay. The way they force TH to commit so much util to mid that theyre able to breach ulti into A without having to deal with viper mollies or cypher trips is a masterclass. Its pure beauty out of G2.
They very might well win Shanghai

fns just be suckin vic and crashies too much those 2 were the ones he needed to get rid of

yea but with fns on the line demon1 bout to become demon2

same ngl

lev and g2 aint the best teams in the region

This is standard G2 performance bro what are you on about. The only thing missing was Valyns ridiculous fragging from Americas

I mean T1 have just had problems with their strat book and leadership. You cant have a good team without a good IGL

Yea i havent seen a good post on the platform in years

Theyre gonna be good but they aint placing top 6 in champs imma just say rn, thats IF they even make it.
Getting rid of the best player of last year because Chet was an idiot with FNS and Som is actually a crazy move. FNS will carry the calling but they aint gonna have the fragging power to compete against the top A tier and S tier teams

but you dont need to be the best nor beat the best to qualify for a tournament as shown by T1. Being first seed gives you 0 momentum and so much of the time the first seeds who are better than their opponents lose anyway.
DRX deserved to be at shanghai much more than T1 regardless of it is or isnt cope

its pretty mickey mouse you cant lie. The only real S tier team is PRX and thats if we assume theyll be performing at the level they did in Champs which from their history they probably wont.
Madrid was also mickey mouse asf tho and it produced some banger matches so idk why people are making it seem like shanghai is gonna be a boring tourney

Anyone from Indonesia been having crazy packet loss in game for the past couple of days? Ive been testing online packet loss tests and it seems like my internet is stable again but when i boot up valorant and play deathmatch or ranked my packets loss is constantly above 15% and sometimes reaches 100%. Its almost unplayable

AMD drivers really dont suck anymore its just an age old stereotype thats never been given up by the general community. Its also a lot of confirmation bias. Me personally ive run 2 Nvidia GPUs in valorant and 2 older AMD gpus being the 560 and the 5500 both AMD gpus were completely fine and i never faced any problems. If anything once i switched to my 970 and then 1650 (1650 has less problems) ive been getting a lot of stuttering, crashing (really REALLY bad on the 970), and sometimes even artifacting + invisible characters (tho tbf this only happens when i have ridiculous packet loss)

Both are fine honestly if you buy the newer ones. Valorant is coded well enough to work on both as long as you dont mess with stupid settings that dont need to be touched.

huh? but whats the joke tho?

Deal and I even think theyre gonna win

On paper TH have better players than Lev. None of the Lev players frag other than aspas and all of the TH players frag apart from riens

I don't think the maps should have anything to do with it though. We've seen saadhak and johnqt call some insane back and forths on all those maps, I feel like maybe just the meta doesn't force teams to really switch it up round to round and on top of that the anti that I mentioned forces teams to abandon older strats cause they become really easy to pinpoint mid game (this is the reason benny is always switching up his trips)

It definitely fell hard. Even as a Sen fan I can safely say that Madrid's skill level was ATTROCIOUS and personally other than the GF I don't think Sen played to the peaks they'd shown from pre Madrid.
The games don't feel like there are masterminds at play. The closest we've seen imo is TH v FNC but that game became a battle of individuals after the first 2 maps.
I think it's the insane amount of anti strat rn, it's hard to build your strategy on top of existing ones and so everyone always starts from the ground up every few tournaments

It's only crazy cause his team was hyper dominant (this is coming from a long time chronicle fan, he is not currently better than forsaken)

C9.
Vanity

I agree that won't solve their problems and he isn't always the reason for their losses but your deduction that king is is even worse of a conclusion.
Kingg is a good igl tho inconsistent, the problems start arising on the attack side cause they just don't have shooters other than aspas and once in a blue moon mazino

You're clearly out of the loop if you think any relevant teams rn were scrimming the whole off season other than Sen.
Other than challengers teams the only teams that were made during the off season was Kru and G2

Why are you so adamant on that lmao? Do you really need a reason to hate on Sen so much that you're deluded enough to believe they didn't play worse?
Vlr at its finest right here 😂

C0m is just bad bro, he was never made to be on a superteam, it was the biggest mistake Lev made replacing nzr with com

It's so sad to see NRG fans have 0 hope for their team but I assure you it would be a way closer game than you'd think.
G2 are in the best form they've ever seen and it won't be long before they fall off like Kru

Bro changed his comment ☠️
