There are 3 ascension winners
Some of the most trash play I've ever seen out of JDT on these last two maps. Fucking absolutely throwing massive advantages from ahead for no fucking reason, round after round, disgusting.
Yea, I think five teams going 2-7 is possible.
edit: spelling
Lets go with the 5 team group at 1-8. For each of them to go 1-8, that means they've beaten a single team and lost to every other team in the league. 5 teams are A, B, C, D, E
If the one win for each of the teams goes like:
A>B
B>C
C>D
D>E
E>A
That must mean each of these teams have lost to every other team they've played. So what about B vs D? D has already beaten E and B has already beaten C, but both teams still have to lose for this to make sense. So it's not possible.
This second scenario isn't possible. Just logically think about it for two seconds. How are five teams going 1-8? How are five going 8-1? This can't happen if it's a round robin.
I didn't realize honeymoons lasted over a month. Also, how bout 100T?
googling "sen dephh wife" doesn't take long
You're right, people should definitely be condemning it more. I hope the riot staff on site are trigger happy and fucking remove anyone doing this shit the moment it starts up. It's disgusting behavior and so disrespectful to both the players and fans of teams victim to this.
And I'm saying this as a person that is almost exclusively rooting for NA teams when they face BR/Latam teams. It's just not right.
LOL. Genuinely, not a bad ranking.
No, they wouldn't
There are very few 1v3s that happen where the opponents are playing optimally. Not a surprise that's also the case here.
How so? It's been two years, the state of basic game play has significantly progressed and everyone's gotten better at the game. Of course they would lose.
Both teams would get shit on by most of the partnership teams and some NA/BR(Maybe EU too) challenger teams. Sentinels would most likely have it worse.
You think saying the expected result makes you special?
And these fuck suck noobs have been saying potter was bad coach
Hilarious
Nah, it's because of the victory against mibr AND how they looked against loud/lev
You clearly haven't watched any matches if you think that. The crowd barely exists to begin with.
He took a 7 month break. Wouldn't even be here to play if sick didn't get himself arrested. Use your brain please.
The people that think marved is gonna be benched again are coping HARD
edit: yes i know he wasn't benched, joined as 6th after the sick>jail thing
it's possible to qualify with 4 wins alone, but will depend on map differential/rnd differential or whatever tie-breaker criteria is.
They changed 2 players, the team's core is still the same. Also, since icebox is leaving the map pool, they probably haven't been practicing it and don't want to as they see it as a waste of time.
Ya'll on some cope if you legitimately think marved is being subbed as of now. It obviously depends how the match against mibr goes, but if he looks good there as well, he probably won't be hitting bench for the rest of season.
Given the player quality of the eg roster, they're doing pretty well now(In last two matches). Remember this eg core was literally 10th place at the end of last year. I do think potter needs to be criticized for holding onto this core though.
Eg core went out 7/8th in lcq last year, so 9th/10th place overall in NA last year
Hmm, leave my foot alone or play russian roulette with a 4/6 loaded pistol. I WONDER WHICH CHOICE IS CORRECT?!?! hurrrr durrrrr
EMEA
PACIFIC
AMERICAS
If their official matches are this fucking scattered with the roster, I can't even imagine what the hell they're doing in scrims. Really feels like GE have trolled themselves. I could get behind selectively bringing in SKrossi and lightning fast depending on which duelist you need, but this is too much.
Do you think anyone on loud actually feels the way you do? You should be ashamed of yourself. You're not a real fan of anything.
We'll have to agree to disagree. Sentinels only looked good at the first international event of 2021. At both berlin and champions they looked mediocre. I don't think whatever he learned at those two tournaments/2021 reykjavik is anywhere close enough to have him prepared to face the elevated level of competition we're seeing in americas.
Like I said, valorant is a young game. Things progress quickly in new games and it is extremely easy to be left behind if you're not near the top fighting through the innovation and continuously oncoming talent that arises as a game's professional scene is thoroughly established. Sure he was at lock/in but he only had a single official match.
You're not changing my mind about this and it seems I'm not changing yours. Lets leave it at that.
Not gonna touch the experience comment? Please touch it. I don't think anything I've said is unreasonable or controversial. Tenz didn't attend a single international tournament last year. Playing valorant regionally and finding success is is not equivalent to playing internationally and finding success. He didn't even manage to do the first last year, which wasn't necessarily his fault but the point still stands, he hasn't experienced what the others have since 2021. Valorant is a young game. Things have changed a lot in the last year.
As for the head coach point, fair enough.
Tenz hasn't been at the top of competitive play since early 2021, two years. In those two years, the game has progressed and the vast majority of the time, he was without a real coach. Saying he lacks competitive experience at the top level of play isn't a joke, it's the truth. Everyone else on his team was top 6 at least at champions last year.
As for sykko, from the interview he did with wyatt a few months ago, we know that he relies heavily on others for strategy/analysis when it comes to coaching. He is more an emotional leader when it comes to coaching. Yes, kaplan wasn't doing all the strats. But what I'm saying is that removiing sykko alone shouldn't be such a big strategic change as that wasn't really his thing in the first place.
How tho? Kaplan was still doing all the strats while sykko was coach. I think it was just roles and tenz lacking experience at the highest levels of play(first masters was too long ago).
2-0 GES
Is that 70% really only 70%? The only one I like are europeans(bren/sideshow), so it's more like 100% for me. Although, I usually don't mind sully/upmind too much.
Skip school and stop making poor life choices
Pretty sure it is a round robin. If you look at the last scheduled matches currently, they're on April 21st even though the regular season is supposed to go until May 3rd. The latter portion of the round robin just isn't scheduled yet is my guess, but it should be a full round robin.
All these threads suggesting hypothetical roster changes are so dumb, rosters are locked for the next 5 months. There will be no changes.
Not sure. I thought it was map diff>rnd diff>head to head
If something like that occurred, then yes, riot would make an emergency exception and let a team pick up new players.
Based off that wyatt/sykko interview from a while ago, sykko doesn't actually do any strategy/analysis. He's only an out of game leader of the team. So outside of them actually having a strategic/analytical coach for timeouts, (which admittedly could help) this doesn't really change anything I think.
