A source isn't needed. Potter said at that tournament that while the roster wasn't absolutely set, her goal was to win with that team in 2025. But then we got reports of sym being removed. I don't see how that alone means we shouldn't assume that yay is still on the roster, especially since he performed decently in that tournament.

Didn't he say he was gonna set up an account and stream on that site?

Top right-ish corner of the website, turn spoilers on.

Thank you for making this post. You reminded me it started today lmao.

Pretty much all the top NA GC teams have trans/non-binary players. Just looking at team rosters of the top 8 in NA series 3, I immediately see that at least 5 teams have a trans/non-binary player. The other three might as well but I'm not familiar with those players. So it doesn't make much sense to single out florescent specifically.

They're talking LoL worlds, not valorant

He is. This is a mixed gc tournament. Every team here has 2-3men/2-3 gc players.

The manga went on hiatus a while ago which is what happened during the production of season 1 so we basically already knew it was being produced.

But nice to see an official confirmation. This is my favorite anime of all time. I've literally re-watched this show more than I've ever re-watched/re-read all other things combined.

Lets not revise history. Korea was already the best region in league halfway through season 2, then they became dominant in season 3. China was also strong but it was really the Koreans who were absolutely oppressive for about 5 years. China only became the second dominant power after years of importing Koreans and many fundamental changes to vision over the years.

Teams only look worse because of lack of sky. The level of play has gone up and surpassed the teams of last year, including the top teams at champs last year. What you call teams being sloppy/inconsistent is just sky nerf+field of teams being more competitive.

They had dominant wins against both FPX and GenG. They can dominate teams just fine. It's just the better teams that are left.

huh?

He doesn't want to play duelist lol. He's said so more than once.

Same in APAC. Probably the same in all regions tbh.

SEN

The flag is irrelevant. lol. Tex has lived literally his entire life in the usa.

Lev is not G2's easiest match-up lmao

G2 don't mental boom

You're not entirely wrong but that essentially applies to basically everything when it comes to competition at the highest level. There could be some youth/youths that, if given proper resources, would be the greatest ever seen to the current date in X, Y, or Z sport/esport/activity but will never get that opportunity because of the circumstances they were born into.

Not a bad thing to keep in mind but, practically speaking, there's very little to nothing that can be done about that, so not much reason to talk about it.

Read the first line in the post

By a slim margin, sure, congratz. lmao.

I can do math just fine. If you consider that a SIGNIFICANT out performance, you're the stupid one.

They don't believe it because it isn't true. lol. Americas and Emea went 3-3 in series against each other at shanghai overall.

Lev got 9th/10th
100T got 4th
G2 got 3rd

Fnatic got 7th/8th
Fut got 5/6th
Heretics got 2nd

If you wanna pretend that those placements give EMEA a significant edge in performance for that tournament, go ahead. Don't expect others to do that.

Lost 9 rounds in a row. Lol. That isnt a choke.

un-diagnosed health issue forced him to take a break

There's no point in being hyperbolic and saying something like "there's no chance SEN win." That's fucking stupid. Are FPX favored in the form SEN currently are in? Yep. But is it totally possible SEN recover a bit and beat them and maybe even qualify? Also yep.

They're morons.

This team was bottom 2 last year in the league. Now they're at champions. I don't know how you morons can see that and think "lets fire the coach who made that happen." Makes 0 sense. lmao

And why would they fire him for that? Individually, the furia roster did have more firepower, especially when primmie wasn't on the team, which is when he said it. Should people be fired for speaking facts?

Yes, yes it is.

Faze players were still getting that type of pay last year (30k a month). It would be surprising but not impossible for the OXG players to also still have that type of pay.

I wouldn't say it's meaningless. It's a sign of potential. If you can get your fundamentals, understanding of protocols and decision-making to a good level, having phenomenal mechanics (by pro standards) just means you can be that much better of a player. Primmie will be fine, at least in the short term with Frost there.

Lol. It's not hyperbole. Other players have said similar things about primmie. If you watch the clip, he's purely talking mechanics. But a measure of how good a player is never just mechanics. Aspas is clearly the better player overall and the best player in the world. We don't have to pretend he's mechanically the best to know that.

I mean yea. Is anyone really surprised to hear that? Aspas has good mechanics but what make him so good is his ability to read other players/situations and play the line between aggression/passivity to a degree of perfection that far exceeds his peers. Aspas is really high up there with mechanics but he's never been the most mechanically gifted player in the world. There have always been others that exceed him, even if just barely at times, in that aspect of the game.

He's still, relatively, early on in his chemo treatment. There's no doubt that he's not gonna be at his best. That's why they initially benched him but considering how bad they looked against Blinn, they've seemingly changed their minds and probably think that their best chances of making ascension are with him, even with the handicap he's dealing with (feeling terrible from chemo+limited practice because of that).

Naw. It's just a fucking dumb law, especially removing it from this context/type of case. Not every scenario where you're gonna be sued for defamation involves potential criminal activity by an individual.

Korean defamation laws are indeed crazy from what I've seen. Even if everything you're saying is true and can be proven to be true, you can still be sued for harming someone's reputation.

Split 3 isn't relevant to ascension, which is what all these players/teams really care about.

it's a copypasta

LoL

The groups will be randomly drawn with each being composed of a #1, #2, #3 and #4 from each of the different regions. It's not totally random. You can avoid the theoretical best teams from other regions if you get a better seed or win your region.

Top 4 is champs and 1 year renewal. If they make top 8, then they go to ascension tournament. Bottom 4 is auto relegation.

Definitely not atm, not even close too. Hopefully they can make a resurgence for champs.

Not worried. Seeds do matter but if they can't qualify over another region's #1/#2 seeds, then they probably weren't gonna do real damage in the playoffs anyway.

Lol no. 2023 LCQ.

Lev has to win a single match.

I just don't buy it. They had a good amount of time off since they didn't make Shanghai. If they're legitimately burned out again after a few weeks back in full swing, after other teams have played all season while still performing well, then the players just shouldn't be playing this game professionally.

100T would qualify over G2 if they remain tied at 11 points. They have the season long H2H over G2.

Not an esports org thing. He talked about this on stream like a week ago. She's from the same town/neighborhood and they basically grew up together. So she's like a friend/family friend.

Then you're kinda dumb. This team was bottom 2/3 last year. Doesn't make a lick of sense to doubt the coach that brought them to champs.
