(1) it was definitely split between multiple people and between regions but SA's support of saadhak was total while NA was split between NRG, Shaz (SEN fans), and another igl i think
(4) i didn't mean play i meant over the course of the past 2 years he's been the best
(7) https://www.vlr.gg/2764/detona-gaming-vs-gamelanders-onfire-cup-closed-qualifier-swiss-round-5/?game=all&tab=overview dropped 66 in 2 maps to lose
(10) but Lev beat 100T, a team in tier 2, so they should still be given the benefit of the doubt and it should be assumed they play down to their competition

there have been literally no scrim results from LOUD leaked afaik

(1) Remember he beat Optic in upper finals, which was when saadhak first took it(it flipped after grand finals, but went back to saadhak after champs)
(4) i was not arguing that his skye was better, i was arguing that his skye was servicable. he's been the #1 sova ITW imo since hiko retired
(7) sure last season he wasn't solo carrying furia last season, but he was dropping 700 ACS on gamelanders blue in 2020 and still losing
(10) i'd say that Lev-NRG-Loud are their own 3 now and SEN-100T-C9 are a new 3 under them

Aspas has a better duelist across the board than demon1, but demon1 could switch to a brimstone 1 trick lol

its after one match, obviously they shouldn't be down that much but i am basing mine off of the overall community opinion of teams, and the community over-reacts

1A. Lev
1B. Loud
1C. NRG
2A. 100T
2B. C9
2C. SEN
3 Furia

  1. MIBR

TS trolled harder because they were MUCH worse than expected compared to GE which were only kinda worse than expected

posted 10 months ago

how would SEN not be down, people expected them to beat LOUD? and c9 were expected to destroy mibr so obviously they are down a little since it was a close 2-1

posted 10 months ago

on average they are close mechanically, but aspas is a noticable margin better mechanically than less, both teams' number 1, which matters more since both teams usually funnel through their number 1 option
and Loud is obviously better strategically

My rebuttals:

  1. Saadhak has been the best igl in the world undoubtedly since Masters 1 2022, and i personally loved him when he was on vikings in 2021
  2. OFC he is dephh is british
  3. Yay could probably play an aggressive old skye but with the changes teams are moving away from that so yay will adapt slowly like he usually does
  4. https://www.vlr.gg/183791/loud-vs-sentinels-champions-tour-2023-americas-league-w4/?game=118968&tab=overview
  5. Its vanity he plays like he's still on a T2 CS team
  6. Boostio is more than solid
  7. Mwzera has always needed help, you're 4 years behind
  8. nobody who understands brazilian valorant though of QCK as a fraud
  9. they are definitely better, but the gap between them and the 9th team has definitely increased from last year
  10. the top teams have definitely shifted though, Loud up, NRG down a lil bit, 100T up, Sen DOWN, C9 Down a lil

100T played LEV wayyy closer than Loud played SEN, so via that logic it favors 100T
but its 100T vs SEN so in reality its a 50-50

posted 10 months ago

you are wrong in SO many ways. first off, 100T has only beat SEN once in VCT specifically, but 3 times total in riot sanctioned events(twice in first strike) and 100T is 2-1 in playoffs
100T won first strike playoffs SF
SEN won stage 3 challengers playoffs
100T Won 2022 LCQ
Also, it'll be a close game
100T played LEV wayyyy closer than SEN played Loud, and the difference between LOUD and LEV is within the margin of error

posted 10 months ago

so it wasn't "just 1 matchup" it was sen woefully failing to meet expectations

posted 10 months ago

where SEN were considered heavy favorites by a lot of analysts

I fell asleep in the middle of the 1st half of bind, how did the rest of the series go (how did 100t look ik the result)

posted 10 months ago

boostio is our best player....

posted 10 months ago

its that using fnatic is an awful example when saadhak is in boaster's head, use paper rex or the 2023 EG team instead

posted 10 months ago

yall are losing to 100T or lev lol

posted 10 months ago

oml you missed the point. saadhak, not specifically on ascent but still applies, has had fnatic's number on ascent since they beat him at Lock\in

posted 10 months ago

loud beat fnatic twice on ascent at champs this is the worst possible example you could make

posted 10 months ago

it is saadhak dude, he can make anything work

posted 10 months ago

it was this way since Lock\in 2023 lol

what did i say

posted 10 months ago

just like the gekko comp, they run it once, win with it, then switch

posted 10 months ago

it is saadhak it'll work, ppl said the same when they ran gekko on split last year

posted 10 months ago

did u even read what i said? i said vitality have TWO ROOOKIES they don't have the experience, also liquid are made with a core that couldn't win ascension you are on copium

posted 10 months ago

sen would be the consensus 4th behind navi, fut and fnatic in emea
(ik ur gonna mention vitality, they have TWO ROOKIES)

posted 10 months ago

the difference is these are built off of rivalrys, kinda like college football which actually has chants. kinda hard to do that on an international level given americans don't know geography

don't click it it goes to Karmine Corp 2023 gameplay AHHHH MY EYES

its SEN, the rest of america does not claim SEN fans
NRG, 100T, and EG fans will all agree with me that we aren't as delusional as sen fans (100t fans definitely used to be but we are just depressed now)

posted 10 months ago

sacy can't play skye, but knowing sentinels they would be the organization dumb enough to drop him for pancada after losing to the best IGL of valorant history (assuming they lose)

posted 10 months ago

i mean if you laugh your ass off you also lose focus lol, its not the same now but when it was started the chant definitely had MUCH more meaning to someone, the US was THE country, now it depends on what you are looking at

there's a 50% chance he's real and a 50% chance its a someone trying to make the opposite side of the political spectrum seem dumb

you have no way of knowing this when they haven't even played a match yet.

posted 10 months ago

are you talking about the games where they had A SUB or last season, because in both cases that has nothing to do with the 5 man currently lol
also im not slandering nismo i love him but if you don't understand the affect of replacing a player idk why im even bothering
