I have a way to stop smurfs, its called making ranked more rewarding. By having the ability to get skins, banners, titles and even valorant points, there will be more people grinding ranked then making smurf accounts to fuck me in the ass every game. Im a casual gold 2 player and every unranked game theres a level 1-40 account on the other team that gets 30+ kills who is smurfing. I dont get it, just make ranked more rewarding then just a fucking gun buddy

thats to many languages and to many combinations of ways of play. The problem is mixing regions is really difficult, and look at how well GE is, they're shit

What if both ascension teams make champs the year of relegation for them. You cant remove either or, but you cant add without relegating a signed team, uh oh

I feel like riot could have done a swiss 16 knockout stage instead of this BS again. It doesnt allow for teams to get more international experience, it has minimal matches and if a teams like FPX or FUT get placed in such challenging groups, its really not fair. Why not have a chance to play atleast 3 games before getting eliminated

wait so SEN didnt win masters?? PRX didnt have a 3rd place placement in masters??

your yapping is kinda crazy though. there form has been good in there own region but when it gets to international events they've struggled

posted 11 months ago

thats such a lie dude. most teams have a shot at making the top 8. LEV may have not had the best masters experience but you cant count out Aspas. DRX, PRX, TH as well as SEN also have a very good shot. Idk what youre yapping about but the amount of talent is insane, youre only narrowing it down to a team that was good last year and a team that has evolved meta on every single map this year. Plus the addition of a new map, its sure to shake things up. Fnatics chance at doing something is small, especially the results they put up at masters but we'll see where it takes us

dude, the team is still preforming amazingly, why are you hating

It would make the largest amount of sense. The team barely changed from the buy out of 21-22, so technically its still the same org

posted 11 months ago

So, Fnatic and KRU have both made it to all four Champions events but does DRX count as well? If we're counting the Vision strikers team that was bought by DRX, then technically, DRX has also made it to all four

Should IL leagues be expanded to 14 or possibly 16 teams in the future to better the odds of tier 2 teams and players to experience the stage?

If you look at Liquidpedia it shows you the accurate points. LEV got 1 point for winning group stage 1, one point for bye-round stage 2, 8 points for match wins and had a playoff win in stage 2 brining them to 12

100T always loses momentum. They had such a great start just to precedingly lose there map pick and lose the third map. At this rate, 100T wont make it to champs if they cant keep up good playstyle

In my opinion, VCT relegation should be a thing for all teams and here is how I believe it should work-

12 Teams per IL league
Bottom two teams starting next year will be forced to go to ascension (However, for newly added teams they get a one year free be. It doesn't matter if they're bottom 2, as long as they are a recently added team) this would give teams a year to adjust, make changes and improve there team inside of the league.

Relegation will apply to Promotion and Ascension teams (Nobody wants to see MiBr go 1-10 next year and not be relegated)

Finally, for teams that have already been in the league and win Ascension, those teams do not get that bye year as they have already been in the league and this applies to all organizations that have previously been in and IL league (Unless they change region)

If a team withdraws from an IL league, its up to the players to agree to sign to another org or be forced to get relegated out, this would mean two teams+ amount of unsigned teams

This is just my concept, some might agree, some might not, at the end of the day its just my opinion and it may not be right or wrong

back then the players werent as developed as they are now. as good as old NRG was on paper, they were irrelative and wasnt able to master what valorant was back then

posted 11 months ago

I like this idea and concept. I feel like if they have another LOCK//IN Tournament it can highlight talent at an international level and be easier as a viewer to get a glimpse into new teams, styles and players. I feel like Masters events should be 12-16 teams and champs should be 16-24 but that is just my opinion

posted 11 months ago

I know how the game works, but the problem is you have to have both on the same team in order for it to work. Clearly there is a lack of fire power across the whole team, and there mental as well as strats have been down. From one of the best teams last year to a team that looks like it would be in tier 2, they're running out.

dude as good as FNS coms are, his aim is not it. it doesnt matter if you have the fucking brain of albert Einstein, if you cant aim, its a 4v5. In my opinion FNS could be an assistant or head coach

posted 11 months ago

I honestly dont think FNS is the right call for NRG anymore. Theyre trying so hard to keep the OpTic core alive its not even funny anymore. They have one of the best players in the world sitting as a fucking substitute which is such a joke. The team needs a full revamp and needs to mix it up this offseason

To clarify what was said, I said this as LEV and KRU are considered LATAM teams, not SA. I was referring to the fact that most people call Brazil SA and say LEV and KRU are LATAM. In true context, there will be no Brazilian team represented.

LEV

For the first time ever, SA will not be represented at a champions event. This comes after all three of the SA teams in VCT Americas got eliminated from playoff contention. LOUD, Furia, and MiBr have all showed some of the worst talent we've seen from SA. In a shocking turn of events, it was at Masters Shanghai where we would see 0 South American teams represented in this event. Now, just a few months later, not a single South American team will represent the Brazilian flag. Out of the four years VCT Champions has existed, South America was always represented, but now, the tables have turned, North American and Latin American teams have pushed the region into even lower depths then before. Will the region be able to recover in the off season, potentially win ascensions and have a fourth represented team in VCT Americas? Only time will tell where this region will stand, but wherever it is, it has A LOT of repairing to do.

Italian region sucks while Portugal has three of the best teams throughout EMEA. This system is bullshit and riot is making the system a more ‘pay a lot of money get a spot’ type of league

posted about a year ago

So what happened to riot having up to 16 teams per IL league? Riot is making false promises, dogshit company

posted about a year ago

The one reason they are in is because they are an Indian org with a lot of supporters. The country of India is more then 1b people, so they have to have some sort representation in the league

probably one of the biggest upsets this year. I will say though, Blinn played everything by the book, they took very minimal risks in there play style and sometimes that playstyle pays off against a team that is not in the right mindset. one of the best series ive watched this year

posted about a year ago

I was watching a lot of the second map and some of the decisions by the team just didn't sit right at all. There timing was off, they left A-site open multiple times and blinn was able to abuse that same weakness over and over. They were chasing kills they shouldn't have and it was like they were more or less playing individually at times instead of as a team

Could relegation solve a future problem Valorant might have and could it revive the Tier 2 Scene?

To start off, the likelihood of relegation isn't that far off. If we take a close dive to the previous systems Riot Games has used for its Valorant competitive scene, there is a lot of relegation in tier 2-3.

First, EMEA. All EMEA leagues have relegation features. Usually the bottom 2 teams from each league will be dropped down and forced to play two other teams who have been doing good and trying to get into the league. If the team loses, they are kicked out of the league.

North America has a similar system in their league, and so do many other regions like the Philippines, South America, in fact almost all of the tier 2 competitions have relegation. If tier 2 has relegation, then could it come for tier 1?

Knowing Riot Games, it is possible this might not happen however the pros of this could be enormous. First, we would see a rise in orgs to try their hardest. With the fear of being relegated down and possibly being sent to tier 2 to try all over again, it is an incentive for teams to do as much as possible to remain in tier 1, which means more competition between other orgs. With more competition, us as viewers get better games to watch.

If relegation does happen, it can combat a growing problem that could be lurking in the shadows for the mere future. That problem? A league where it doesn't matter how bad a team is but is always guaranteed to get paid as long as they do the bare minimum. One key example of this problem was shown in a league that most of us might know, The LCS.

The North American LoL region had 10 ‘competitive’ teams at its peak. Problem? Teams like Evil Geniuses, Golden Guardian, Dignitas and even Immortals haven't made any noticeable tournaments in the last few years with ten teams. These orgs sit and do nothing as they know no matter what happens, they'll always exist, and this could be a future problem with the Valorant leagues.

The fear of this happening in Valorant lingers in the background just waiting to get uncovered, however with relegation, this issue can be solved. Valorant leagues are still incredibly young. This is Riot Games second year with franchise teams, and there's only 44 teams in total. Relegation now would be unlikely, but it could happen as soon as we hit 14 teams per league.

By having 14 teams per league, the incentive to keep mixing things up will always be there, which is why relegation could easily be implemented. What's better than seeing only one of your favorite tier 2 teams get promoted? Having three. By having two relegation spots with 14 teams, and still needing to expand the leagues to 16 teams each, you’re giving smaller organizations, teams and players the chance to get into the big leagues. This would also force teams that may have been in the league for all four years to pick up the slack and keep staying on top.

This is just a thought, an idea of the imagination, but what do you guys think about it, what are your thoughts or opinions? I would love to know. For now, this is all I have to share and offer. Goodbye for now, hopefully see you guys next week.

and I think you argue a good point. CS2 did remove maps, some game modes however they have been adding them back with a visually better looking style to the maps. The graphics and visuals of the maps greatly improved because of it and it addition allowed them to make changes to the maps. Yes, i am comparing the two cause some argue valorant is better and some argue CS is better. Valorant revolutionized esports and may have brought it more light and I hope that it continues, but peoples comparisons between the two are drastically different in the sense that youre trying to compare old to new. this is just some opinions and facts, i respect your take

posted about a year ago

I do understand about the whole org representation and 50% proceeds, however, it took them a long time and they only made classic skins. This is just me but I feel like updates that help the pro scene doesnt necessarily help the community. I feel like riot priorities's the pro scene more then what the casuals want, which is new game modes, replay system, a more fun and enjoyable type of game that doesnt feel like a sweat fest every round

posted about a year ago

So many people have such strong opinions on both games that its just kinda dumb at this point. Im going to js state the obvious, CS has-

  1. More Players
  2. More Viewership
  3. Community pieces implanted into the game (Stickers, Maps, Skins)
  4. A market
  5. More Game modes
  6. Better graphics (Js my opinion)
  7. A diverse community that co-exits together

Valorant has-

  1. Devs who dont listen
  2. Very opinionated topics
  3. A huge level of complexity
  4. Balancing problems
  5. Cash-Grab tactics
  6. Minimal representation of Esports teams
  7. No Re-Play system (Its been four years bru, we got a non-binary character before a much needed system in the game)
  8. A community that spreads hate (Yall argue over non binary characters, how good or bad maps are an you hate on eachother for it, its kinda petty)

At the end of the day, both games have there flaws, both games have there ups an downs, but truly if you guys still wanna argue bout which one is better, just look at everything Valve has done for CS, there community, there esports and there game, then look at valorant

posted about a year ago

thats the other thing, val will never beat CS cause CS has been out longer, has been a center point and blueprint of esports and is also a lot more welcoming
