The team is totally fine, its totally working for them. Or else they wouldn't qualify for Berlin. If it didn't work, we probably would've seen Liquid or some other team here.

damn viewers getting so competitive against one another's region that they are trying to dictate which region gets how many slots now lmao. EMEA getting 4 slots in Berlin is totally fair cuz you know why? best teams from 3 different (CIS, Turkey and Europe) regions have to compete for 4 slots.
Sentinels is in a different level than all of NA, the only reason why other teams can beat them in NA is because they played them a lot. 100T right now is looking really strong, specially in the Lan environment. For EU tho, EU has a lot diverse and great teams. If you go back and check, every Fnatic vs Sentinels match was really close in the Iceland finals. Considering the fact that the teams we are now seeing in Berlin is technically better than Fnatic, there is a high chance that Sentinels will struggle against the likes of Acend or Gambit. Personally I would put the crown on Vision Strikers' head right now, they could be the team to defeat Sentinels. Acend, Gambit and 100Thieves will probably make things hard for Sentinels too. So the super team for EU is literally out of question with the recent and future roaster changes of the top EU teams. Liquid and Fnatic are getting enough time to prepare as scary af teams while the likes of FPX are trying to fix their roaster. Acend and Gambit gaining international experience is also gonna help them in the long run.
Like the wise one said-
"vs is playing valorant, other teams theyre playing cs with superpowers"
-vasant
XDDD bro stop dat, yeah NA is better region rn but that doesn't mean you'll stop supporting em. I'm wondering how both EU and NA fans will react when Vision Strikers clap one of the NA teams.
Are you watching btw? I'm asking again :/
some of NA also says TSM best team in the world, we never know until we see the results :) Shaming a pro team for delusional fans is like hating Jesus cuz humans are trash :)
Nobody disowned Gambit, they are doing really good for young inexperienced players.
Fact that the NA fans shaming EU for dropping a map to the best KR team is weird :/
really scary matchup but I believe Acend will win :)
4 of them has great Lan experience, its only Asuna's 1st Lan but he is also doing great :)
I believe 100T on Lan is way stronger than the 100T that played in NA qualifiers but idk if its enough to beat Sen yet.
Well not totally, 100T on Lan seems different than 100T on NA Qualifiers against Sentinels. 100T could even beat Sentinels in a Lan match up I believe.
The OG Sen fans are not toxic, most of the toxic kids came after the Tenz signing or after they won Masters 2. Sentinels is like the G2 of NA, they love banter and trash talk, it's really entertaining in my opinion. On the other hand 100T is bitter sweet, Steel handling trash talk while Hiko managing to make friends with the opponents. Most 100T fans are the ones who love these experienced players, fans of Hiko, Steel and Nitr0. There are Asuna fans too who support 100T but overall 100T's own behaviour kinda dictates how their fans would talk. 100T players being nice to Gambit led to most of them being nice too :). I could be wrong but that's just what I think is true.
Steel was right in that clip tho n Dapr made a mistake there. But now both of them have grown a lot :) Both of them are amazing sentinels and I love them.
Sentinels vs TSM, Faze Clan Invitationals finals.
I think SMD or Acend should get moved to NV's group too.
Good read, definitely a good take. Let's wait and see. If covid wasn't a thing rn pretty sure it would've been way better cuz lan with crowd is great
oh I see, so time is the main issue then I guess that is unfortunate
I really didn't know that big event and time fact tbh ty for letting me know
understandable, maybe soon we will see OCE getting slots :D
It's not blasphemy, OCE is probably better but you could be nicer about it.
:/ don't call them trash and we can see the best OCE team is tier 2 in NA.
The format of Masters Berlin is kinda weird in some ways.
Let's start with Group-A, We have Vision Strikers, Paper Rex, SuperMassive Blaze and Acend. Acend being the best of EU right now while SMB is the best Turkish team and Vision Strikers have been the best Korean team for a long time with a small break in the middle. Only team in this Group that can be "seen" as a weaker team compared to the other teams in the group. These 4 teams are fighting for 2 spots and it definitely seems kinda unfair.
Group-B Has Envy, Vivo Keyd, KRU Esports and Zeta Division. 3 of these teams are champions of their own regions except for Envy being the 3rd best of NA right now. A lot of people are saying that Envy has the easiest bracket of them all but we will see if its actually true or not.
In Group-C we have Gambit, Crazy Raccoon, 100Thieves and Havan Liberty. Gambit being the best CIS and EMEA team placed with the 2nd best teams of NA, BR and JP seems pretty fair cuz that's how seeding works and that is the reason why seeding matches are important now.
Group-D has pretty good Competition since G2 and Sentinels are in the same matchup right off the bat, while we have Bren Esports and F4Q. F4Q still has to prove themselves in the group stages since a lot of people wanted to see Nuturn in their place. Bren being the best of their region now has to prove that they can compete in the international scene.
The biggest let down is the playoffs where we only have a single elimination bracket. Having no lower bracket kinda sucks, specially when the best teams around the world are competing in a big tournament. Seeing one of the three teams in Group-A getting knocked in the group stage sucks enough, the teams being - VS, ACE and SMB since only 2 of them will qualify. The single elimination in a tournament like this makes no sense regardless of circuit points for champions. People wanna see the best teams of a region fight against the best teams of other regions. Putting 2 EMEA teams in the same bracket with the best Korean team is kinda not the best thing someone could do. With all that being said let me know your opinion :D. Pardon all the mistakes I made and I'm open to criticism :).
TLDR: Group-A unfair, Single elimination playoffs bad.
cNed, f0rsaken, nats, Heat, Asuna, Hiko (after a long time), Bunny, Laz, Reita, Yay, Lakia (again), Stax, Nukkye.
You just gotta relax and let your body go. Become one with the water, if you relax your muscles you'll start to float on your own. Don't be afraid, you won't die so easily man. If you keep being anxious then you'll never get past the basics of it. Just relax and let things happen and let the instructor help.
Okay I really do wanna watch Heat in Lan, I've seen his score but unfortunately, I wasn't able to watch him play live. If you have any clips to share then please do.
Imma read it now, you lose.
I think Aproto is placed really low other than that its very accurate
I'm not watching the matches if they keep this format.
Jett is pretty bad on Bind but using some specific comps opens up a lot of opportunities and potential for Jett.
good to see 100T trying out new things and doing well. Enjoying this match-up.
if the roster gets more time who knows how scary they'd become.
