It’s a very interesting read.

TDLR: Money teams used to get from Riot used to be 300k fixed + 400k based on content creation objectives + bonuses for reaching events + bundle and champs skin money. Now the 400k on content creation objectives is deleted and instead the 300k fixed are bumped to 400k

Other stuff he mentions is that teams are not happy because it’s less money and they were given very short notice. Also bundles will most likely have an upgrade for 2025 so they can keep selling them

I would agree with Mr Khromov's elaborated analysis

SEN was better in the final I'm not arguing that. Why I think GenG was better is because of how they looked and played throughout the entire tournament and even a bit because of what happened after

I would disagree, I would say the entire course of the tournament including the Upper bracket finals showed me GenG was a better team. Sen played better than GenG in the finals and therefore they deserved to win. But playing better than a team and beating them once doesn't mean you're the better team overall.

Many examples come to mind but TH is the most clear one to me, they have lost twice to G2 and VIT, they deserved to lose, but even after those 2 loses, I was still convinced they were the better team overall

Um, people's argument to say it was Mickey Mouse it's that it had very few teams right? If that is the case then 100% no, absolutely no non qualified team would have won and whoever says otherwise is delusional. So no, no Mickey Mouse

That being said, do I believe SEN deserved to win? Yes, they played the final better. Do I believe the best team in the world won? No, I still believe GenG was the better team at that moment but didn't prove it, so didn't deserve to win. Hope it makes sense

We do know because they proved it again couple months after

Missed again, KPI is not my team no

Specifically Lock In is the least Mickey Mouse tournament because we 100% know the best team won and managed to prove it at the following event again

moatz is NOT a TH or any EMEA related team fan fyi

I wouldn't imagine Sen fans being happy about facing GenG

No it was not, at least on spanish stream you can visibly hear them shout after he places the first smoke thinking he was main

crowd gave that one away

They're done, they're not playing well at all. DRX deserves to win

Wtf am I watching

Plastic surgery and name change

sen ain't making it past fpx

MiniBoo at Kick off and Madrid, Benjy at Split 1, Woot at Shanghai, Riens Split 2 and Champs.
And it hasn't been particularly close either on any tournament, always a clear number 1. Never seen anything like it, Boo consistent af too

I wouldn't say much more competitive, similar

Banger

TH ain't trolling all those half buys next time

Boo today imo, Riens overall

Tbf they should have beaten EDG

Gigachad

Their coaching staff has done a great job. They have a great dynamic, Weber does more the strategic adaptations and Niel the more human part

I won't make it to 30 if TH doesn't stop having the craziest series I've ever seen. My heart ain't made for this

Having an IGL like Boo or Munchkin makes such a difference man

he has proven he is capable, now he just need to find his groove again

I swear I’ve never seen so many semi buys won

Second. He was absolutely elite on his first one

They’re cooked against FPX if we’re being honest

Was you mean. TH is and has always been the better team

They seem to choke a bunch of games that they have almost won, like that final against FNC or the one against G2. But then again they are 11-2 in OT’s this year so I just don’t know what to think lmao

Doesn’t really count if you lose the antieco on round 2 does it

I’m not asking him to drop 30, but he doesn’t look half as sharp. He has proven before he can perform at a much higher level on flex and if he isn’t it’s because he’s not at his peak. Also he has been struggling with pressure mentally, and had some concerning tweets

GenG won 3/4 low buys on both maps man

Opposite lol

It also can’t be master class after master class. It’s both

Again, that’s so unfair, Woot is not performing as he was, it’s not a role thing. Look at the Navi game when he came back. Cannot pretend like maintain that level was possible

Fuck off, not a single one. I’m done

Have TH won a si for antieco all series? Are you fucking kidding me?

I’m not saying the tournament is over, they lost to the best team. I’m saying if you were trying to beat them, you cannot afford that

You cannot lose both pistols and that many ecos against the best team in the world on your map pick, you’re done

That is a completely unfair assessment tho, the rest of the team were playing extremely better themselves, they all saw a performance dip and it’s not fair to assume that’s MiniBoo’s fault

Hasn’t lost a clutch since 1972

Nah he’s been weak for a couple weeks but he seems to have found himself, at least this map

It’s an extremely attack sided map if both team got their shit prepared

xDDDDDDDDDDDDD

I think TH would rather quit Valorant than bring back Zeek and Zeek would probably rather retire than go back

Bro either gets a 4K or falls off the map
