PRX literally had the first pick and they had so much time to prep for G2 but they still lost so badly.
No excuses for them here, we take the L here, move on, go next, and do better.

PRX had so much time to prep for G2, no excuses here if they lose, and so badly too.
Surely this will be a close 2-1 either way?
Back-to-back win against 1st seeds would be crazy for GenG.
Chances of TH failing to farm their last CN team, EDG?
If that happens the lower bracket will be brutal for EMEA teams icl.
On defense:
FNC is so good at punishing aggression while GenG is good at retakes.
I'm supporting GenG but this is the high-level gameplay we need. Banger map to start.
100T look great, their scaling, the utilities, the retakes, the aim, the vibes. W.
Absolutely cleared FUT here.

TH qualifies to Shanghai Playoffs by beating both DRG and FPX.
FUT qualifies to Shanghai Playoffs by beating DRG and LEV.
Banger Icebox match tho from both teams (TH vs FPX) wp.
Nt FPX.
FPX seems to have a weak map pool given that they are not confident enough to pick Bind/Split?
I know they are best at Sunset/Lotus but they should have known that
TH is also strongest at Sunset/Lotus, but weak at Bind/Split (at least with a sub according to the G2 match).

Wait a min… I think you’re actually on to something. I think somehow EDG will “coincidentally” be the last to pick their opponent and it will be the leftover unpicked GenG. This is like the perfect China’s script for an opening banger match that will generate the most buzz.
King of China EDG vs the disliked GenG in China (at least on the surface level). 🤯
I’m pretty sure all regions will pick G2 as their first pick if they could, I know 100T can beat G2, but will 100T really go for a NA v NA face-off right away? I think they will pick FPX, but if they dare to pick GENG then that’s full respect to them.
What I know is PRX will 100% pick G2 if they had the choice, first becuz GENG and G2 already qualified, and they definitely won’t want to play GENG again, so they definitely would have start prep-ing for G2 already since they do not know which remaining 2 teams will qualify, and also because T1 almost beat G2 and f0rsaken/PRX will also have the revenge narrative for his brother.
I really don’t think any region would pick their own region first if given the choice.
Good point you’re right.
They performed poorly as a whole sadly and they were already given the time to prep for Shanghai qualifications when they missed Madrid, they just didn’t live up to it :(
Previously he was 6th man/benched of SEN and now he’s dropped from NRG, kinda sad, but if you look at his K/D in his past 30 or 60 days stats it’s horrible and he isn’t playing well, he went negative a lot.

——————————————
Edit: Since someone bumped the post and I saw it, I might as well update the stats.
Both TH & FUT literally only got their first win from DRG… they proved nothing yet.
I’m from APAC but I’ve played 1 semester in NA server during my school exchange programme and I would say there isn’t much difference tbh. You can get easy opponents for a few games in a row where you smoked the other teams but sometimes the games are very close or you can even get smoked suddenly, this is all in immortal 1-2 lobbies. I’ve no experience for EU, LATAM, BR servers so idk about that. In terms of toxicity I think APAC has a slightly higher frequency of toxic players but also not really, it’s just that you get aggressively toxic players who is desperate to grind up whether in NA or APAC...
DRX was the real unlucky one, they went 5-0 in Stage 1 but they just had to face PRX & GENG in playoffs, meanwhile T1 went 2-4 in Stage 1 but managed to beat GENG whom happens to have a very off game…
But it is what it is. No point harping on these “could’ve been ____”, let’s move on.
EMEA draws China again 🤯
FPX 2-1 TH (weak map pool of TH due to sub which was exposed by G2)
It’s not that deep, they just don’t cheer for GEN.G (political reason), and FUT (whom disrespected CN teams). Other than that they cheer for their own CN teams. They are actually a decent crowd if u look at how they cheer for LEV and also applauded for TH’s benjyfishy even after TH beats their CN team.
The point is, if you have show them some respect, they will show it back.
So far:
GEN.G vs FPX was the best match followed by GEN.G vs LEV.
Every other matches were midasf, it always felt like ‘who is throwing less’ instead of ‘who is the better team’.
I don’t care which region wins but I just want some high-level, competitive, tier 1 games becuz this just ain’t it rn 😮💨
If FUT loses to DRG becuz of not saving during the 3v5 in the 8-12 round…
It would be real funny if DRG actually wins and they have to say it’s “luck” again lmaoo.
Choked or whatever, players should just accept their loss gracefully and move on, like srsly, have some class.
T1 needs to brush up on their fundamentals.
Like on breeze, when they have an op and they knew aspas has an op too, they drone A-main to make aspas hide from it but they don’t even have the basics to post their op-er on the re-peek from aspas to punish him.
Terrible performance 💀, alr gave them too many chances after the initial 2-4 swiss stage to qualify for shanghai. Yet they fixed nothing.
Bad half by T1, that was a breeze ranked gameplan right there 😭
Dw I only bet what I can afford to lose, even if I lose it’s okay, I won’t rage bet trying to recoup or anything like that.
I’ll take ur advice tho, but I guess I’ll only bet on PRX matches from now on.
RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I have $500 on them btw🙏
(actually wanted to go for $1k)
I think it’s still the same—first pick as winning condition for defense since Reyna & Chamber comp is not exactly for retakes compared to other util agents.
It would definitely good if there’s a filter for it but idk if it’s necessary from dev’s pov.
Like you, I honestly don’t care about Challengers League/Game Changers/Ascension or whatever tier 2/3 events.
Faker’s aura seeps over to valorant and brings T1 the victory today.

Come back here after the game.
y0y/Ice cream man over Ethan is crazy. s0m will replace both of them easily as a high fragging controller.
Marved literally went -17, -11, -7 against 100T, EG, LEV.
LEV 2-0 FUT
LEV 2-1 FUT
Damnn wp FUT.
Im on 60 hz monitor, $60 mouse, and 30~35 ping and my peak rating is immortal 3 tho.
I can dm u my tracker as prove if u want.
fr just look at the coach diff here on the attitude and mental level
https://x.com/pprxteam/status/1792495468448235887
just bait question dw, he’s the goat for sure imo but if hes coming back there will be high expectations and he needs to prove that hes still him, tho I definitely have faith in him.
https://tracker.gg/valorant/profile/riot/s0m%23katie/overview
Is s0m a ranked demon or is he the goat?
Last 10 ranked games as a controller:
Dropped 30 bomb on 4 games, averaging 25 kills for the whole match history page.
If he does comeback replacing Marved, I will start cheering and hoping for NRG again.
Current NRG is a no-go, didn’t make Madrid—unlucky, need more prac, fine.
But failing to make Shanghai even when they have the time to prep for it—getting destroyed by LEV, 100T, & EG in Stage 1 can no longer be excused.
T1 2-1 LEV
My mind says LEV (65%) and T1 (35%), but my heart goes for T1.
T1 Win Conditions:
⟡ aspas off game (but unlikely since he is lowkey him, so xccurate’s chamber need to pick him off before LEV execute on the site)
⟡ T1 must play their A-game with minimal mistakes and stop throwing like against G2.
My guess is that LEV probably have counter-strat to push xccurate’s chamber off, so T1 needs to adapt and support xccurate more instead of leaving him alone to op. And if they play icebox, T1 needs a deeper strat instead of hitting only A-site becuz it won’t work as well against LEV.
