sharp aim on both teams very nice to see japan has leveled up

harry is a demon descended upon earth to destroy in valorant

optic 2-0 no way this prediction backfires

power of the odeag

this joke is lightweight BUT

it is pretty telling about someone's personality when they keep getting into shit like this smh

they are an actual black horse this time. at previous events even as a jp/apac fan i looked at the rosters and knew there was no chance there lol, will definitely be betting on them if their odds are good

ye, that zeta roster was extremely mediocre. now they dropped their two worst players and picked up two very promising strong talents, as well as upgraded an a decent player for one of the best in japan

literally a whole dimension stronger than the prev. roster

stay sleeping on zeta, it'll be all the more satisfying later

zeta division were a team of friends too, they had literally stuck together for over 4 years (from csgo -> valorant) but even they humbled themselves and made some important roster changes to keep them competitive at an international level

vlr exposure man is going straight to the bank with that one

reyna is just an inferior agent to jett and raze, people play her because they don't have the agent mastery to play duelists like mentioned which is sad considering they have such higher skill ceilings. an insane raze will always have infinitely more impact than an insane reyna

meiy

one of their players literally had covid

when you beat a team 13-0 it isn't because of strats or macro play, you're just fundamentally better

i've never seen bazzi play this well in my life LOL his mechanics looked so shaky on CR

damn DRX getting whooped on their map is crazy. even as a fan this only makes me hype for the region, super glad to see other talents come together

damn, slayers lookin sharp so far. hope they can keep it up

optic vs v1 is 60/40
optic vs knights is 80/20

possibility yes likely no

the only thing in this entire game that tilts me is non-commers

i would literally rather have someone that gets 5 kills and comms everything than someone with 20 kills that doesn't say a word

i want them to continue improving, it's extremely hard to improve when nobody is there to effectively expose your weaknesses

as a DRX fan im cheering for ONS

he mentioned yay because 100t vs NV was literally one of the most onesided games in their entire time as a team, he completely dismantled them dropping 30 kills in like a 16 round map

in the post game interview frost straight up said that they played against a monster

rise is the most inconsistent team in na vct

the three teams v1 have beaten are rise knights and nrg

numbers are apparently inaccurate

none of these pro valorant streamers have lasting power in the streaming scene, you can tell by the lack of community around them. tarik (and as much as i dislike him, sinatraa) are the only ones that comes close

compare to the actual top streamers of twitch and you can clearly see how the fostered a culture and have viewers that genuinely identify with them (think xqc/juicers or forsen/bajs)

in the end shahzam and the other pros are just cookie cutters of "entertaining skilled player", it's a pull large enough to attract a big handful of viewers but the vast majority have no particular attachment to them and will leave once they find another streamer that fits their bill

just my two cents

why do you think music can be judged in an unbiased way to begin with? that entire approach makes no sense to me

it's art, unless you're commenting on technical accuracy (mixing, eq, etc) calling music good or bad is totally meaningless, you either like or dislike it

did you know he asked to join sentinels to replace tenz and they told him to suck a dick

berserk
hxh

that's crazy people typed L man im literally in tears for him rn

"""cancel culture""" is not real it's just an overused buzzword

no matter what people on twitter do jasonr will always keep his viewership

you are fighting a boogeyman

you know v1 has not played against anyone on that list and yet somehow you have them at 2nd

meh i give it like 80/20 odds

yeah they look better than 100t. but in valorant the better team doesn't always win, waaay too much inherent randomness in this game for people to think the result is already decided

don't really know why people are writing xset off as an insta loss for 100t

to be honest i haven't been impressed by them at all so far, cryo especially i expected to dominate but he has way less impact than i would have guessed

late but didnt see anyone post it

cracked young talent in a region without a history of tac fps is always amazing to see

have either of their previous matches been streamed? can't seem to find any vods

ok i had doubts at first but this is definitely a great move. man is literally an unmoveable object

the downside is that it's a lot less entertaining. i really enjoyed watching him entry on jett, dashing into site and killing two weaving in and out of his smokes, and getting into the defense

but optic clearly think it's better to have yay actualize chamber's value and have victor handle the entrying

Yeah

how are xerxia looking without patiphan? I haven't caught any of their matches

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man

i never said it was his profession, just that he's doing it lmao

and we should be honest and acknowledge that the only reason people do it is for attention in the end, nothing wrong with that but it is what it is

result of game rests on victors shoulders imo, you already know what to expect out of the rest of optic

on one hand people whose relevance only stems from doing the lowest form of journalism (leaks) should watch their ego, their contributions require no talent or craft whatsoever and only exist because they know certain people

on the other hand if you're a pro why do you give a single fuck what these borderline tabloid posters online say, social media is made for irrelevant people like you, me, and him to shout their opinions into the void
