at least its not TSM's legacy of being irrelevant since 2020

but india isn't anywhere near as developed as either china or latam(maybe latam but not china anyway) is.

china has 2.15x the people that LATAM+BR has though so this comparison doesn't exactly work

if you want to STRETCH IT you could say there are some people that think north macedonia should be under greece's control so runner is greek

woahhh buddy ur getting ahead of urself you'd become french for saadhak?

EG went on a 6-0 run vs LOUD on map 1 too at one point, SEN should bounce back in map 2 and 3 if they dont win this

BE THAT GUY

saadhak has been my favorite player since champions 2021

we are kobe & shaq

ngl u walked right into that

i thought your point was that they can't catch up and fell behind because of partnerships, so i countered by saying even when they could develop talent by playing good teams(of which there was only ever 1 to 3) they didn't have enough talent. even if they could, it wouldn't be enough for 10 teams
edit: which means the point of them not being able to make talent is mute because even when they could the region wasn't good enough

and thats completely irrelevant to my point which you replied to

even before franchising i don't think there was enough talent for 10 teams though
edit for reference:
SA made playoffs 7/19 times before franchsing
NA made playoffs 12/15 times before franchising
EMEA 17/19

not enough SA teams/talent ngl

nah peak 100T was masters 3 berlin but besides that this is the best 100T has looked relative to the rest of the scene

the single elim game is a qualifier between the #2 and #3 in the same group, don't think of it as part of the playoffs

why is valorant champions 23 higher than /matches and /events though

its more likely he knows japanese than english isn't it?

has there ever been an italian in a regional masters, first strike, or challengers finals geo? im roasting you but im also curious

they won EMEA league, DRX haven't won ANYTHING since 2022

bleach tastes amazing though

this is a hate crime (my supermarket stopped carrying them though sadge)

geo.
just combine raspberry lemonade and grapefruit juice
best drink ever

OLD STINKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY CATTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!
i will be more depressed once they take away the old stinky cat flair

HI FWOGGY

*stinkshow he changed his name when he converted to old stinky catism

c0m is definitely the zellsis equivalent. the heart and soul. whether you'd classify him as a co-igl idk

its just the SEN flair not the flag
example: acegamer30

oxy yes the rest no

yeah there's no way SEN get eliminated in groups its just funny to see both them AND NRG there

they lost to NRG with no prep
and C9 with 1 week of prep when they also have to prep for KRU
they still SHOULD make playoffs
they might not make shanghai, but all good

VAMOS KRU
WE GETTING HIGH ON KRUPIUM TONIGHT LIKE ITS 2021 CHAMPIONS

*ALPHA FUCK ME
its not gonna end like this, but seeing both NRG and SEN being eliminated in groups looks funny AF

you really should its free upvotes

vanity pre round and runi mid round is my guess

HI FROGGY
OLD STINKY CAT WIN

happy passover :D

NOPE

i am calling u a fraud silly

CHRIS WTF. we at old stinky cat always believe in others!

u and c9 should be friends given you say you are from the same flock

I went to have my passover sedar at 6-2 and i get back and 100T are up 10 11-1
WE BELIEVE IN THE THIEVES

turkey

it highly depends on how coachable/open mwzera is to play under saadhak's style.
Example is Heat and BzKa
i do expect it would work though

so were PRX not the best team in APAC last year when TS beat them?
(they were 2-1 vs DRX in pacific league last year, the 2nd best team)

prx lost to TS last year too

heat + keznit is a nasty duo, LOUD with a few extra days of prac will do wonders since they only had 1 week, it should be a 2-1 either way

i agree on mistic and ban, but vanity definitely has people who overrate the shit out of him

probably do, but one can be on krupium

according to riot, Lock\in was "a masters level tournament" and "a replacement for a masters event"
i don't agree with it, but its what riot says
