no they have to choose one to be their "home" region

why would they not at least trial him tho, like surely every NA team looking for a new player is gonna trial him

Apeks - direct relegation
Gentle Mates - direct relegation
G2 - staying
2G - direct relegation
NS - ascension
BOOM - ascension
XLG - (probably staying)
DRG - (probably ascension)
(XLG and DRG could swap if DRG makes it further at champs)

i have zellsis dawg

Zellsis reyna 🙏

interesting idea but the academy team should have to play ascension, not the main team

not even urango can pi vs 2g there's levels to this shit 🐐

some hilarious names in here

sorry, im mad at geng for sucking ass

neither are going to champs 🤷‍♂️

-Lysoar +Less

actual good ragebait wow

Eternal Fire had the bag and were gunning for ascension at the start of the year, can't blame Izzy and Quti for taking it

surely KOI just calls up at least 3 of their academy players, right...

i think high tier 2 is pretty reasonable for next year, it's hard to see who he replaces in tier 1 rn

yeah surely Kyu and bao are better prospects

would need a few months probably but aim don't lie

respect top 5 igl of all time pls he can quit snus whenever he wants

would be funny ngl

but also probably the nail in the coffin for VCT americas lmao

then 2G stay and G2 go to ascension.

dawg

albums i've listened to at least once in the last week:

ICYMI - EDEN
black british music - Jim Legxacy
Blush - Kevin Abstract
SABLE, fABLE - Bon Iver

kinda got me ngl 7/8

wonderkid getting dog walked by Enzo in 2025 I'm not moved

god he's disgusting

👀

pray for XLG, BLG, EDG, Wolves buddy

Wolves mathematically cant make it unless EDG do btw

they did this in the last series and won the map (when sato dropped 35 💀 )

lowkey i feel like demon1 could thrive in that role too

EWWWWW

zekken still #1 until they go head to head at the very least

this is just mean spirited ngl

I cant defend the comps, but the ideas behind the macro were alright, especially after timeouts. But as soon as they get into a good spot, the players' individual decision making (NaturE specifically) was super questionable

funniest part is that he doesn't even shoot that bad

so why did VIT suck ass? if 4 shooters is what matters

5 star players is not always better

exact same agent pool as yay, no point in having both of them

I think he means if they ascend

flair (4/8)

better roster than this current EG thats for sure

G2 Davidp

Fairly certain middle eastern players are firmly within EMEA, seeing as they're in the name of the region.

The only outside case I can see is for Iran and Afghanistan, which are not listed for any regions (I'm not even sure if the game is released in either country tbh)

At least for challengers, Pakistan is a part of the VCL GCC in EMEA (official name is GCC, Pakistan & Iraq apparently, I didn't know until I just checked) If I had to guess, this is most likely just because of the current tensions between India and Pakistan & travel restrictions between the two.

(I know your comment was not that deep and I'm not arguing I just thought it was interesting)

still possible but very unlikely

to make champs through playoffs:
need LEV to lose to KRU & 100T
need LOUD to lose to 100T
need to leat LOUD
need to make top 4

or

if they don't make playoffs:
need KRU to lose out
need SEN & G2 to get top 2
need LEV to get top 3-4
only 1 of C9, NRG, 100T, EG, KRU can get top 4

might be other scenarios but these are the ones I can see rn

lowkey that major is what really got me into esports and then NA cs has let me down for 7 straight years since

Probably factual but nothing can ever compare to how the C9 eleague major run felt personally

bro AG are in the upper bracket of China playoffs they're not dog anymore

you might be the first person ever to say uber is the worst caster

actual real hot take in 2025

I did the exact same thing, then igl'd t3xture for this week...

and then kicked the frenchman after he was actually pretty good
