It shows how much you know nothing about the game

Most crowds are going to be bias towards one team or another. You'll only find exceptions in EU maybe

Why the fuck are yall so bothered by who the crowd cheers for??

Ward

Asia has billions of people and you're resuming them to only China/Japan/Korea LOL

Terrible bait

Well, one can mature and we all know a strong mental also comes with experience

Everyone thinking that G2 is heavily favored without considering that T1 grew up the most in this tournament

Compare how they were playing in the beginning versus now. Plus, it's the first finals for Buzz and Stax, these guys do not want to lose

They've always done well in scrims because everyone is testing things instead of trying to ACTUALLY win

I bet they do some stupid shit and get away with it because they have good aim, but when they try to do the same in officials and get punished they do not understand why

Def not, made many mistakes as well

?

narrate is def more skilled than sacy aim wise but the TEAM does not look better with him

Not even the biggest minds in the planet can explain this downfall

I genuinely believe it does not matter who goes to FURIA, the moment they put their jersey and tag they become terrible or dumb players

This org is cursed

They are terrible, mediocre players on a even more mediocre org, the only time they were nearly good was when dgzin was their star player

It is what it is

ppl really thought they were something when they only won against Furia?

With the amount of individual mistakes they are commiting rn they are not going to pass though the winner of NRG x LOUD

But I do think they can win against LEV

Only 8 FB and +11 this guy is washed fs

Não seja emocionado, a LOUD tá jogando mt bem. Não tem nada a ver com os cara sendo overrated po.

He wasn't performing in BR Challengers, and he wasn't on IGL as well

But one can improve, specially surrounded by good and experienced players

Khalil is gathering up power to play 3 good matches in the beginning of the 2025 season, and then vanish right after

Cauanzin is still the best initiator Brazil has to offer.

Also, Cortezia flex when Spike exists?

The GOAT fRod will shock the world with his awp like in good old times

MIBR 2x0

Shinden is good but these plays i'm seeing from them is clearly a communication problem, they seem so lost in some chaotic rounds
I don't know if they are comming in portuguese or spanish, but from what the broadcast showed it was a mix of both which is def weird

É simplesmente bizarro como todo mundo q entra nessa org FURIA fica absolutamente BURRO

Não existe UM time da FURIA que não jogou DESSE jeito. Acho que o nível de zika dessa org é tão grande que até o Sacy ficaria burro jogando nela

Org medíocre, se não fossem os donos podres de ricos já teria sumido do mapa

He's good but I feel like they could not fit him into the new team specially since he's a duelist player and the new duelist they got is just the best in the world right now

The ONLY question mark about this team INTERNATIONALLY is V1nny

DGzin, Tuyz, Pancada and Cauanzin are proven players. Can v1nny's IGLing step up to lead these guys? We don't know tbh, but mechanically alone this team is good for at least 5th-6th place in Americas

G2 literally won against MIBR the first time to put them in lowers

Idk why these guys are ignoring the fact that G2 just fumbled the bag today and MIBR just grew better from their first clash

It's the team of their region, why the hell would they cheer when the homecrowd team is losing tho

They have the firepower the problem is the IGL

I doubt Vinny can even come close to what Saadhak was.

Calm down lil bro, it's just C9

Nope for - you don't want to go to LOUD - or - they are not interested in you?

Brazilian orgs are known to hire players based on "suggestions" from players who "happen" to be friends with the guy they suggested

They also do not have people good enough to choose the players based on good criteria, this is why we have teams like MIBR 2023 or FURIA 2024 split 1

It means more spots for brazilian players to try to shine in franchising

Sacy, I heard his Neon is top tier

I agree that he's a Neon one-trick but he did play Neon on map 3 and still lost

Sure M80 turned on their monitors but AK choked really fucking hard

That's assuming 2G would choke hard like AK did

É os dois. O zap tá jogando muito individualmente e as calls tão boas

Não dá pra negar que os caras tão bem disciplinados também. Acho q o bootcamp na europa ajudou pra caralho

Spike

It's only the first map, chill

Of course, it's tier 2 with bunch of unknown orgs and players

I think this is very good viewership

A melhor época dele foi quando ele foi "forçado" a jogar de iniciador, ou seja, forçado a sair da zona de conforto

Agora q joga de duel, farma uns stats um jogo ou outro e é chamado de herói pelo torcedor médio, mas não faz esforço algum pra vencer

O que vc falou é real, a maioria dos mlks q tão jogando muito nem tinham idade (e nem tem) pra jogar na franquia, e em 2023 os outros tb não estavam jogando bem, salvo uma ou duas exceções

Mas que os times BRs são paneleiros safados eles são, só montam time com base em "indicação" de player e nunca com base em scouting...

Ao mesmo tempo que eu fico puto pelas orgs BRs quase nunca darem chance para talentos novos, eu fico puto também com essa mania de montar um time, não dar muito certo no curto prazo e literalmente desmontar o time logo depois

Não é como se a FURIA tivesse feito um Stage 2 ruim, eles ficaram 3/2, só não foram pros playoffs pois aquele Stage 1 deles foi desastroso, mas o time, pelo pouco tempo que tiveram, jogou muito bem

E o Xand sempre esteve nos times que eram top2-3 no Brasil desde o início do Valorant. Claro, ele não teve sucesso nenhum quando ia pra fora, mas é inegável que o cara tinha mais exp q os demais times BR.

Eu só espero que a FURIA monte ao menos um time com a rapaziada de talento e deixe a experiência do Rafaa e do Peu liderar os caras. Só não pode ficar renovando contrato do Khalil até 2030 sendo que o cara parece o melhor do mundo em uns 2 jogos depois some

Then why didn't you include Less in there?

That's why they pick it

If you think your preparation on the map is better than everyone else then it's good to pick it specially because it's a new map and everyone is trying to decipher it

Of course we might have some horrific games because of that but for the teams it's great to have a new map with not many known strategies to use as an wildcard to get some wins

It's 2024 and people still do not know how to deal with random people from the internet talking shit/hating

Just ignore these idiot comments and move on ffs

Can't wait to see people overhyping NRG again

I just wish the calendar was more stretched to give teams more time to adapt and rest, but I agree with you
