Even if you found a girl 50% of the games which is a lot, that would still make a 1/19 women/men ratio.

But anyway girls might do break the stereotype and start playing, but here is where the second factor comes in. How many girls do you who actually play video games from a young age? They might grow up and be like oh yeah I like video, but how many parents are they gonna give them video games to try when they’re kids, her friends are not playing, why would she play?

Yk what I mean? The causal population is growing a lot, but casual players are not the ones that are gonna end up competing, that’s a complete different type of player.

Hell yeah KPI, good one here

Answer this question, how often do you find a girl in ranked? 1 out of how many games? 2? 5? 10? 25?

They’re shares have been under 1$ for way to long so they will be forced to go off market, and no, that’s not as easy as you’re putting it

Nice

It’s an esport thing, goes far beyond NA EMEA or Valorant. Whole industry is gonna shake

All of NA bubble is going down and this is actually massive. Guard, C9, Faze and I’m sure many others are on the verge rn

That was way too close. MiniBoo not having the day

It’s crazy, everyone stealing our talent

Genghsta EMEA pride let’s goooo

GE shirt looks like a supermarket uniform

If you’re saying it because of the green ugly shirt that was just for Brazil. Giants merch is usually pretty clean

You're not gonna like the script I'm sorry https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/7ecb0990

yes there is https://www.vlr.gg/event/pickem/1190/champions-tour-2023-emea-league

A bug through out a whole tournament is not being filled with bugs

Ah yes VISA's are also Riots fault. Filled with bugs where?

kamyk is really good, not a sentinel tho

VCT Americas starts next week, ofc he is in NA

Nt Bisk that was close

Sad

Heard that too, but what other reason is there to be completely gone from everywhere, or give up their roster which I heard costed them quite a few

Looks like Parla ran out of money to me? No clue tho

Don't mind the language, thanks good enough for me

Solo estan haciendo el KPI vs FF https://www.twitch.tv/da1mon
Y el SUP vs CGN https://www.twitch.tv/kamkgg

Thanks maaaaaaaan

Idc as long as I get a fucking stream and a third map

I think the game starts at 5

Those 4 players might actually be some of the most underrated players, most people don't actually know how close they were from qualifying into VCT. A Bisk/hvoya/flabben/Insider/vokashu could easily win ascension

Sad that we'll have to wait quite a few tho

Orangutan
VLT
Reckoning
Gods Reign

Something like this?

The game is very far away, any I think you're right but Hvoya or flabben can pop off and farm the game if they have the right day tho. We'll see

Yeah but Orangutan and Reckoning might be the favorites for the group right?

Thanks, Ig it's unclear

hvoya is insanely good. Him and flabben are gonna own pretty damn hard

Idk how good LES is, but reckoning looking really really good. Flabben + Hvoya are insane and really flexible. Deadly played really good too

Is he? Dang

There better be a stream.....

Ik, I mean that it's not updated with the brackets and schedules

Ironic

Idk why it's not on VLR but it's about to start
https://liquipedia.net/valorant/Surfshark/Valorant_Challenge/2

Tell me he IGL's at least....

Hvoya deadly and flabben looked really good that first map, Harsh was decent but master looked a bit lost. Idk who's the IGL tho

They were tier 1 in EMEA a year ago, been gone for the last year. But they have been world class players before (Beaten FPX/ GMB at some point)

Alfajer

I really hope so, but I don't know to what extent is on Riots hands. You can't pretend like 10 orgs are gonna be able to get all their Russian players visas for the Ascension tournament, or that the logistics for an entire league are gonna be fine. I really really hope they can sort it out, CIS is the biggest farm of talent in EMEA without a doubt

So 00 does not wants a player for free and it's KRU's fault for not giving it away just because?

Yeah and I feel the exact same way about GTZ, Kamo is just as cracked as Tomaszy. But kizpawn and starkk are even less ascension material than Fizzy and Addicted. I don't think using DSYRE's success in Germany to judge SAW. German league wasn't one of the top ones either idk

We'll see tho. I'm very excited about the Surfshark starting tomorrow, it'll give us a little hint on what the relative level of Turkey/Spain/Germany is

Saw? Really? I think the turks are ahead but I'm not sure if I would still consider them 4th? Ig I need to watch them a bit more

Haven't watched them but Ik Tomaszy is cracked af, but he is not fulltime rn. Fizzy and Addicted were good players in the Spanish league I have seen both individually quite a lot, but they were def not ascension player material at that moment, idk about now. I know Bati and DaviH but haven't seen them enough to judge

Why would it be good tho? You're basically telling me they do not wanna hire 2 different teams because they do not care enough, like bro get more people tf you mean "if they don't feel like it nobody is gonna work on the game". Don't you see there is something wrong there? Sure they wanna work on it now but what tells you they still will next year?

How does that make it any better? Wtf is that even supposed to mean? You do not tell your employees to work on something if they don’t feel like doing it????? Is that supposed to be a good thing?
