I always thought his flicks were world class
He's a good counter against AWPS and angle holding. Pair him with the right utility and it's possible to brute force sites almost every round rather than clear them.
I'm willing to say that every team in EMEA is at least A-tier except for 1 that is B-tier, with Fnatic being the only S-tier team and NAVI being A+. Like, they're good enough to be able to score wins against stronger opponents within reach, and can potentially score a map off Fnatic, but that's on a good day--they're not consistently at that level, hence why Vitality can beat TL and KOI who beat NAVI, but lose to FUT. NAVI is clearly experimenting a lot, and I mean a LOT.
Same thing for APAC tbh except there's like 2 S-tier teams, 3 A-tier teams, and like 2 C-tier teams
Americas is still undecided as of right now
Bro Navi realized how goated Yoru entry on A site is with 2 tps and 3 flashes
A site has 10 different off angles on defender site with different elevation and distance that you have to attempt to clear if you want to get onto site. The entire site is cramped so flashes are less effective to clear the site, and so you're guaranteed to get peeked by at least two people the moment you try to push, it requires no intelligence, just aim diff.
Mid to b is almost impossible to take without getting lucky or a really good read.
B main is a long ass bottleneck where Jett or Raze or even omen can hold one of 5 off angles with an awp and be able to peek your team at least twice, and that's not to mention the 5 hiding spots that a viper with a shotgun can camp and that you have to waste half your team's utility to clear while avoiding the previously mentioned awp yellow. If you somehow manage to plant bomb, you have to pray to God your team has a harbor or sage or that someone isn't camping heaven the moment you start planting.
All rotates are slow as fuck and you can't ever get a good timing, especially if their sage walls off kitchen and or they have a kj with a shotgun perma holding tube.
There's no viable strategy other than to take aim duels, on both sides, and win. Its the map with the least strategy in the game--its that way in pro play too.
Prayzey makes god edits in general tbf
To be fair, all the optic content was always about their tournament runs. The players stream, but their twitters are always pretty empty, especially crashies victor and ardiis
While every other team gleams in the spotlight they still have for now, these guys focus on improving themselves.
They don't need clout from drama,
they don't need watch parties,
they know everyone, not just NA, will be watching their games, whether to cheer them on, or to figure out how to beat them.
From NV, to OpTic, now NRG, there's never any social media presence from these guys.
There's only one way these guys need to advertise themselves as for the world to know their names:
being the winners.
yeah i don't know why people think it's an insult. Like that's literally what they would classify as lol.
It's going to be a close match, all I can do is pray to daddy FNS

No international trophies
No top 4 finishes
not a good player.
honestly, no JP team in Tokyo would be kinda depressing
I, for one, appreciate your pun
There's been a general trend of lower-ranked teams closing the gap between themselves and the top dogs of their regions.
This is especially notable in APAC, with TS accomplishing the previously unimaginable feat of beating Paper Rex, GE having two incredibly close maps against DRX, and Gen.G looking strong internationally at Lock-in.
But also in EMEA, where KOI and Vitality, two dark horses have been able to consistently contend against NAVI and Team Liquid respectively.
In the Americas, MIBR, which flopped at Lock-in, managed to take a map against Loud and almost won the decider map. Furia also looks like an international contender with their recent performances so far, especially against Fnatic at their absolute best at Lock-in.
The titans of the past are crumbling. Only DRX seems to remain standing at the top.
Today we'll see if NRG, with the old optic-core, will manage to stand at the zenith of NA valorant like they had before.
Says the TL fan
I don't wanna let me EU account go to waste, someone pls duo with me.
Russians so good at fps yet their reading comprehension is still lacking, if you're any indicator. lmao
With the situation in Russia + moving to western Europe I wonder what happened to his studies. Is he full time valo now?
Russian teams can't win shit by themselves, always carried by Ukrainians--both in Valorant and CSGO.
Only capable Russian team in valorant carried by a Tatar (nAts) (apparently having a diverse ethnic makeup is a bad thing now.)
tbh I can see them subbing in marved for zekken on certain maps, or marved for tenz
Their greatest weakness has shown itself again. Their aim has drastically improved from 2022, and their strats are T1, but tex's individual decisionmaking and neT's tendency to fold under pressure are weak links.
There were better upgrades to Saya than tex. Unfortunately there's not a better Sentinel than neT with the same kind of understanding of their gameplan, and with the same amount of chemistry with his teammates as he does.
EU fans desperate for NA slander so they try to define near losses as losses.
By that logic, there's a certain Ukrainian team y'all like to dickride with a tendency to almost throw games--are those basically losses too?
In my opinion, players count as part of their home region until enough time has passed for them to no longer be considered imports by riot
as much as I think KC is underrated, Guard clears the bottom 5 EMEA VCT teams, has a chance against NAVI and takes a map off Fnatic
M80 is about to get a lesson in strategy.
Guard has the read on M80's strats.
How insensitive can you be
I want to believe in their ability to grow after some decent practice. They did well enough against LOUD, so I'm hoping to see Newzera play a lot better this time around to solidify the team.
I will not stop asking if I can be an import
Even a team consisting of the best players in every individual role is going to be trash without any coordination or strategy. UB was basically playing ranked vs tier 2 teams that scrimmed and practiced strats for months beforehand.
Even if they have been practicing, but their coordination or communication is off, then you'll end up like Liquid
made me laugh ngl good job if you're the original author
Nah, I smurf your peak on any one of my international accounts
my two fav underdog teams going against each other :(
rooting for KOI tho cus of koldamenta
I'm a simp for A tier teams with solid players and underrated IGLs. KOI and VIT both had to go against teams stacked with star-players. I believe in Bonecold.
Based? Based. Based. BASED.
In retrospect, I don't think scream was that bad of an IGL. I mean, he did get pretty close to winning a map against LOUD at Lockin. Maybe duelists CAN igl
Shownu play EU servers with me pls
Since there's not a single all Mexican roster that has a genuine shot of winning challengers in LATAM, I'm wondering who the best Mexican players are, spread out throughout other teams.
The only one I know in NA is Seven.
