Point where I said Zekken is a better overall duelist. I said he was the better duelist at Kickoff and that he got diffed on Lotus but not on Icebox

I'm not saying Aspas isn't a top player, I'm saying that people were treating him like the god of Valo off of one great performance. There's a difference between praise and acting like the dude navigates the comos

People in the comments acting like I said Aspas fucking sucks when I'm actually just saying that he can't get a 47 kills every time Lev is in trouble

People in Valorant are too recency biased. I know Aspas is good but this game is just proving that he can't replicate that Lotus performance every map. This isn't an Aspas diff, it's a team diff. Also the disrespect to Zekken needs to stop, people are forgetful about how Zekken was the better duelist at Kickoff and was 5:3 Vs Aspas on Icebox in that last game. It's not like one map makes Aspas 10x better than him.

Edit: the funniest shit is if Lev don't do well in this split and don't make it to Shanghai, people will forget about Aspas and won't even put him in their top 10 best players in the world just like they did at Kickoff and Madrid proving my point.

I actually am curious to see how TenZ would play Reyna on Icebox instead of Kayo. I think they should test it out since their Icebox isn't that good. Going back to that play style might be great.

He has gotten better with her over time. He plays with her in ranked and is pretty good.

Impact> clutch

So the only rounds that counted were the last?

Yall are trying too hard. TenZ was the winning option for Sen multiple times last year. Remember when he dropped 73 against 100t at LCQ and lost by a one round differential. Remember when the only maps Sen won was one when TenZ played like a God. Why hate TenZ?

This list is going to go to shits at the end of the league

They need Moist or Turtle Troop to lose next game and for them to win against G2. Then they need to beat Moist or Turtle Troop in rounds. They also need to OXG to not win their next two games.

This tournament is going to mean nothing to the League. Watch all the teams you thought would win because of this tournament crumble in the league. This tournament literally means nothing.

Which teams could have had deeper runs if this tournament wasn't single Elim. What would happen if NRG went to the Lower bracket? Would they be in the Grand Finals? Could GenG only impress on 1 series Was Talon just a Cinderella run team? Could Liquid have improved? Would 100t make a lower bracket run? Would Sen have had a different result if they played more games and built more confidence?

Don't think the league will be anywhere near the same as this tournament. This tournament is extremely wish wash with plenty of teams making the worst mistakes. The league will start to iron out these issues week in week out. No way to know how the league will go till we see it.

She publicized it because streaming and content creation is literally her job. She is letting her supporters know why she won't be as active. TenZ did not say anything about taking some time off so there is no reason to question it.

Honestly, people should just let TenZ and Kyedae work through this without questioning what they will/won't do. TenZ has all the right to take a break and he also has all the right to compete if he is able. It's up to them. Also Yay wouldn't fulfill the role TenZ was taking. TenZ was working towards being Jett/flex support whilst Yay imo, needs a new approach if he wants to succeed in this meta. Either a team that will support his Jett like Envy did or needs to start playing different agents outside of Jett/Chamber.

Making fun of the Chinese teams when they're multi times Worlds champions in League. They've got gamers.

Yeah lost 1 map to BBL 13:10 and beat them on the two maps 13:3 and 13:7. Lost one map to C9 getting destroyed on Pearl and then beat C9 13:7 and 13:2. Loud won 2:0 on their first two but in relatively close games. 13:10 and 13:8 against KC and then destroyed NRG 1 map and went to OT on the other 2. I'm not saying DRX is gonna win, I'm saying Loud isn't guaranteed a victory

Don't know what you said but 13:9 and 14:12 against GenG. Extremely close game. DRX lost 1 map to Talon 13:10 whilst beating them 13:6 and 13:10. Remember than GenG aren't on DRX level so you should be careful to assume you'd win.

Didn't Loud nearly lose to GenG? I think you're getting a bit ahead of yourself if you're 100% certain Loud will win especially with DRX having a week to plan. Also if DRX can go toe to toe with Yay, mechanics isn't gonna affect them as much as it did NRG.

Didn't TenZ whilst ill nearly carry Sen to victory against 100t who went to Champs last year and beat Fnatic in group stages. Didn't he annihilate Will who hard diffed Derke on that group stage game? And that was a sickly TenZ on Chamber with his old team so...

They have to get through T1 and then Sen/Fnatic to even face 100t so I think you're getting ahead of yourself

He was always playing like this. People just jumped on him after he won, nobody considered him the best until they beat Optic

They are speaking facts. They're playing far better. It's not about who they played, they're playing better. Against LG, Sen threw map 1 which would have made them 2:0 LG and against Faze, they threw multiple haven rounds and only lost 13:11. They can definitely go 3:2 and I wouldn't be surprised if they give Optic and C9 a challenge. They took Optic to 3 maps in stage 1 and lost on Icebox 13:10. Sen aren't as bad a people think

No, don't be dumb. Exposure doesn't make someone stay to watch your stream. People watch TenZ streams because he is a good and entertaining player. Does TenZ do what you see in these clips on his stream or does he shoot heads, do aimlabs and talk about mice and sens. Stop trying to analyze peoples success to undermine them. All streamers gain exposure through something, none of them just popped out and became famous.

Nothing, just laugh at dumbasses

Are you actually trying to analyze why someone has a big following?

So this BS is recency bias and has nothing to do with the actual best players in NA

Lol one tournament isn't gonna make Yay better than TenZ. TenZ is still better and yes TenZ Raze did bad but doesn't take away from his insane performance on haven where he went +13. Also Yay only played Jett the entire tourney, if you go by Jett alone. TenZ outperformed Yay significantly

Yeah you can't say Nats is the best either. They both are just good at their roles.

Dude TenZ was the best Jett of the tournament by a large marjin. Look it up. 341 ACS on Jett.

Bro being ignorant and talking shit doesn't look good

It was a good try, even autocorrect sees through bullshit. Don't judge gamesense when you have none yourself bro. "Tend" is a way smarter player than you think he is.

Cned is not the best Jett , he is the best Operator player. TenZ can have impact on any weapon, imo that makes a better player. I think TenZ could even go 1v1 against Cned with the Operator by abusing angles and his own insane aim even though Cned is the best Operator user

Rather than listening to Zombs, the biggest fucking troll of Valorant. Go rather watch Daprs interview with Plat Chat instead ok?

It's actually neither but ok

Dude the draw was a video, go look it up. They literally pulled balls out of a glass bowl to choose the bracket. It was random.

Lol troll

If you had a brain to read, you would know it isn't biased and is rational but dumbasses will be dumbasses

I'd like to remind all the babies that the bracket was random, it wasnt based on specific groups or regions. It literally came out of a draw. Yes, Sen lost today. G2 were on point and they were not. And yes Dapr said in an interview with Plat chat that they were put in a shit position because they have to play 2 more matches than others. So if they play all their strats and anti strats, they reveal more. Remember, this is a tactical game.But it didn't mean they threw and didn't try to win with what they had. If Sens group was like the others, they'd have been 1st seed but because of their format, they're not. Also stop using the view of Zombs to ripple to his teammates. Zombs personal opinion isn't TenZ personal opinion. Dapr also didn't say that Sen wanted the 2nd seed but said that 2nd seed isn't a disadvantage so he isn't worried about it. They didn't throw to get 2nd seed but it doesn't mean they were scared to get either seed, get it? Now stop crying

Let's say for eg. Sen beat G2 and F4Q and then beat G2 again, but F4Q beat G2 the 2nd time. Would Sen go through and the final match of the group would be between G2 and F4Q to decide who goes through with Sen.

Afraid of Sinaatra? Sshhh everyone we got a dumbass here. Number 1, TenZ used to que with Sinaatra. Number 2, TenZ doesn't interact with any pros when they meet in ranked unless he absolutely needs to. Number 3, Sinaatra himself respects TenZ. Number 4, TenZ is not dumb enough to risk talking directly to Sinaatra online and making people lose their minds like they did with Shahz when he has such a huge brand. TenZ has definitely never been afraid of Sinaatra on the server especially when he dropped 80+ kills on Sentinels when he was on C9. So no bro, TenZ is definitely not AFRAID of Sinaatra

Wait wtt? If TenZ was so boring, why would he be the literal most famous player in the world. This is an actual question I want people to think about before they get their 2 sec answers like its because he is "good". TenZ brand is literally bigger than Daprs and S1mple so what you said is again BS. Yes S1mple is more popular because of years of FPS but TenZ brand is way larger. Being toxic doesn't mean being a good showman. TenZ is skilled, a good rolemodel, literally the whole Valorant professional community respects TenZ, he isn't afraid to say his opinion and he definitely isn't afraid to shit on people on the server. Idk what you're looking for bro but it's your personal opinion, PERSONAL. 1 out of the 40k people that watch his stream and 1 million that subscribed to his YouTube channel.

Asuna has one or two good games on Reyna, TenZ owns every time he locks her.

It's for fun bro, because all these players are from one country. Chill

Wardell said his team Canada would be him, Subroza, TenZ, FNS and Marved with maybe Shanks. What would yours be?
Mine is
TenZ - Duelist
FNS - IGL and Sentinel
Subroza - flex
Marved - Smoker
Eeiu - Sova
*might do a 6 man and bring in Wardell for Roza on Ice box and for Eeiu on Split. Then TenZ can play Reyna or Raze

Tenz is the only one I can confidently say. Idk why people are naming only Sk rossi and all these others though. TenZ is literally spoken throughout valorant by all regions. You do a great play. "Holy shit, you're TenZ". 1 million Subs Yt, 2 million followers twitch, 500k on all socials. Yeah I don't think any pro compares to TenZ in popularity.

Imma be honest, Liquid only had a close series to Gambit through individual performances, not exactly team play. Link basically made that series as close as it was. In terms of team play, Gambit won

Bro stop riding that stupid BS. Nobody in EMEA was better than Fnatic in the Iceland meta just like all teams got smeaged on by Faze during Masters 1 but then Faze fell off when the meta changed. Fnatic lost fair and square and right now G2 is better but that doesn't mean they will do better than Fnatic in Berlin compared to the Iceland event

It isn't riots fault you dumbass. It's because of Covid restrictions. They even said they tried their best to help. They can't even know Bren are the ones who will win beforehand so what you said makes no sense.
