Im huffing giga hopium but I would love the storyline of BLG beating a tournament favourite twice in a row to make it into playoffs. It gets boring watching people tap heads all the time. I want to see more whzy flying in with a shotgun and shitting on set plays.

I don't think Cned is the problem. Ange1 just cooks some absolute monkey shit sometimes.

As much as I hate blaming the IGL for not fragging I think ange1 needs to go. An IGL that can't really shoot back, no matter how good he is, is gonna hamstring the team by making them play 4v5. NaVi players can all frag but I dont think they can carry an extra person.

Very nice take.
I'd say PRX is better than DRX until we see conclusive proof that DRX is returned to form.
Agree with EG and LOUD. I'm hesitant to call NRG good after that BLG game and almost losing map 1 against Zeta.
FNC agree. EMEA is such a weird case because they've got the material for another good team but both Liquid and NaVi have glaring problems and they both looked lost this tournament.

I think role issues is a big limiting factor for a lot of teams right now to stop them from reaching their potential. Fnatic is just lucky in that they have chronicle who can and will fill any role. I think Forsaken plays a similar role in PRX and that's probably a big part of their success this year as well.

NaVi lost tokyo to a bunch of kids who weren't allowed more than 1 hour a week on videogames until 3 month ago...

That's not exactly the best

Oh this aged like Ice cream

You forgot the time machine

What do you mean Brazil is a southern province of NA sotheir achievements are clearly NA's.

/s

Bruh don't be acting like 90% of the shittalkers on the site aren't faking their flairs and flags trying to start shit.

I was backing NaVi this game but those Chaadhak plays are something else holy shit. Gigabanger of a series.

Yes. Read the thread bro.

How hard NaVi is trolling some of these rounds or the fact that Loud is still somehow keeping it close

What do you want him to do? Run 10 years ahead of his team and 2v1'd every round like Dep?

Idk how to tell you this but valorant is a TEAM GAME. If your duelist is raw peeking every fight the team is doing something wrong.

Bro giving Derke shit for playing the game right.

Derke is actually important for Fnatic's mental as well. He's a caller but he keeps the team hyped up and there was a clip where he was stopping Boaster from getting down on himself.

It's pretty cool to see his personal development since he used to be really hotheaded and a tilter.

As funny as it would be I think NRG would actually respect BLG's plays enough that they can't get away with the same shit.

Nobody and Something opened up some many pun opportunities

Seeing him like that breaks my heart ngl. Poor dude.

I think Dep has good mechanics. Laz just need to keep him on a leash or put him in KJ jail so he can't run it down.

Dep just runs it down too hard. I just wish they played with each other more.

They looked like they had an idea for the first few rounds and then they go back to their old ways of hanging around until there are 20 seconds left and run headfirst. The aim is there (mostly) but they're just putting themselves in situations where they can't actually take fair aimduels.

Also Dep running 10kms in front of his team is not helping either.

I really want this team to be good because watching Laz tap heads is so much fun, but it makes me sad how hard they shit the bed sometimes.

Bro Pacific I get but China literally got the game 3 months ago

Liquid is such a confusing case. in theory they should be such a solid team because every player (maybe bar Soulcas) is amazing in their own right, but when you combine them they kind of just shit the bed. Maybe they need to reconsider their win conditions or something.

He reminds me of Mistic on last years fnatic team. He’s good but he just doesn’t show up enough when compared to the other people on his team. He does enough to justify his place but he’s also the first one to get chopped.

What part of 14>12 and 3>2 do you not understand?

Those people are wrong. It’s so wholesome and all the characters are fairly likeable and well developed.

Bruh how do you do 10DMs and then sleep, instead of being tilted off the face of the Earth.

Bilibili has the chance to do something hilarious

My man isn't satisfied about getting bodied on one thread, he made another one.

Fnatic has won 19 matches out of the last 20.
The chance of that from luck alone is 0.000002 assuming each match is a 50:50, which is still higher than the chance of you making a decent take.

Praying.

what have you done

I'm telling you it all started when Ardiis slowed his own team on Bind...

I am become death, the destroyer of pickems.

It is kind of funny ngl
it's like your local high school basketball team beating an NBA team.

All this match is doing is reminding me to never bet on valorant

Bro if the platchat curse is real they're playing Fnatic in the elimination match.

"SOMEONE DO SOMETHING!"

NRG's mental imploded after map 1 I'm telling you.

Reminds me of that quote from Ardiis on stream
"WE'RE SALARIED PROFESSIONALS BRO THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE BRO"

NRG check corners on an econ challenge (impossible)

Bilibili's mental through the roof right now. That's got to be worth sth.

4 screens bro. He's onto something

Boostio at halftime on Pearl
'Hey guys I just had a hilarious idea'

He was more right than he knew.

I learnt English as a native chinese speaker and I can safely say that English Grammar is a lot more complex.

I found that native speakers of romance languages struggle more with learning Chinese just because of how different the language sounds. But OP is right, there are very many words and expressions with very subtle differences in pronounciation, but mean very different things.
