looks like the first seeds are gonna do a clean sweep for quals those last two games were meant to be the curveballs but were still won in dominant fashion. Crazy the difference in these teams and regions

roza pickup would be crazy considering he hasn't played pro in an eon

im all in for it though

FNS: "[...] We were getting into conflicts almost every scrim, he punched me (Pujan Mehta) and Sam (s0m) a lot, I think we could have resolved these issues but management(?) was not in the same page."

Crazy how they went back to NRG after their teams imploded TWICE in a row and now going for the three time. Surely they realised this bum ass org is a death sentence for their pro career.

there just too many hacker idk where they get them from but they're subtle asf with them. Got into a game where there were 3 people hacking not 100% sure ofc but their gameplay was just insane

nononono my king finesse pls dont let them bench mr prodigy vern0 nononono this can't be happening

aint no way you guys wanna go up against first seed apac emea and china

assert dominance ig

LUL

might lose his bet fracture gonna be interesting havent seen sen play it yet

wouldn't they want first seed?

There aint no way they wanna go up against vit and edg

competition has gotten wayy better, theres a lot of teams on a similar level

Tl would beat sen

whoever wins is gonna get elimmed instantly in the swiss stage both these teams look horrendous

epic battle of the gluesniffers

talking about sentiluls being washed when ur repping the n0vi flair. The only time navi were ever relevant was when they picked up that stacked fpx squad. I don't even remember the last time they made an international because that was in 2023 and they proceeded to get grouped.

talking about watching winners go support some other team, ur shitter org will never win anything big in valo

actually the next leo not that fraud vern0

maybe but the players will just bail themselves out in situations exactly like they did in those games

player quality in t1 is just too good, vs trace is possible but they also have been looking good recently

ngl it feels like americas second seed is gonna get elimed in the swiss stage quickly, all the other teams look insane in comparison

what role swaps?

they're playing double init - narrate has been playing initiator every map apart from abyss

celestial rn have a bit over 100hours, theres are some major balancing issues that you realise when you get higher into the ranks
maps are pretty fresh theres only 1 that i would say is downright horrendous
give it a try its really fun and I've yet to get bored of it although i could never imagine playing it solo and have only played it with friends

n0vi
ange0 is pushing 60

This team has never lost 2-0 (except one game to sentinels) for the entire year. This seems pretty insane ngl, shame they didn't keep the same team

not talking about their players or the team at all, but which org is the best

basically which one would you join if you could

1. Pancada
2. Marteen
3. Scream
4. Smoggy
5. Idk

She's in a good spot, all I would do is revert the dog changes and mayb increase cabbage hp slightly

These guys are nuts

ngl old logo clears

Their good but honestly they've cooked a few of my games so far
especially when theres a bunch of no comm teamates and their mindlessly pinging the map to show where they died from

nah putting them in A is criminal especially after the most recent geng game

um u might need to check their recent matches

ok wtf is talon doing there

APAC talent is actually insane, probs has the best quality players in entire VCT

ur actin like nrg have done anything notable either. They beat 3 tier 2 teams just to get decimated by GENG or DRX

'all tier 1 teams are trying out new shit. unlike sen though, they didn't get eliminated'

take a look at the teams playing in soop and who got eliminated. honestly probs a 2/10 bait now

Thats completely fair but I'm not just talking about that bind game. To be completely honest they should've decimated MITH on pearl defence side and ended it in 2-0. Two senti's one initiator and they were contacting mid almost every round, they could've easily set up a mid trap but continued to give it up and play retake 90% of the rounds.

3/10 bait could improve tremendously

ngl I feel he should make a complete switch of duelist and switch roles with tex

his jett is very good thou and his knives are insane

v0id_er0b0s

why r sen fans tweaking out. Go watch mini's vod review or rewatch some of the maps vs MITH

It wasn't obvious at first but they were def trying stuff out

you can't lie bro was locked on the yoru

proceeded to shit the bed on the other duelists thou

If they manage to beat drx then yes

ngl I think they're gonna get slaughtered but we'll see

ok we're baiting the bait now
we might be retarded

I mean we've seen it been played that way on double duelist comps but i see where ur coming from. Ngl I think tenz showed the most complete yoru performances as an initiator. Ardiis, marteen and rb are also notable.

wha we've seen a couple good yoru's over the years not just ethan

bruh playing a different agent doesn't mean you can't shoot a vandal

gotta see those satchels on t side first

2. you just proved your point - tp's are no a viable strat so your incorrect

3. that data is skewed, as are all of those 'side' data. Take a look at some of the maps and you'll see that in some tournaments even split stats are heavily favoured for t side. You'd be out of your mind to refute that, It all depends on the meta at the time.

also I'm not direspecting your opinion, being ct sided is OBJECTIVE not SUBJECTIVE. I'm just proving your claims are wrong

dw about replying its all g

'also A site being the easiest site to retake doesn't mean that it has a very high retake success rate' um thats exactly what it means also I do agree with b site being on the harder side but its still not the hardest site to retake - u might need to check the stats again.

'what about the teleporters which allow for attackers to fake and rotate incredibly quickly,' u never see strats orientated around this, its more of a last ditch attempt when everything goes wrong, it works for rank but not pro play as showers and long are almost always in contest by both sides.

'SEN's bind notably they do better on attack' it would be disappointing if it wasn't with the comp they're playing - double initiator no senti. Attacker sided and defender sided are inherent characteristics of a map, of course you can change up comps to alter this in your favour.
your just wrong but its ok

might need to check again bind has always been defender favoured.
Has the easiest sites to retake with A site being the most successful/easiest site to retake in the game

GENG are shooting its ggs for sen

wonder how many timeouts nrg burnt yesterday

oh definitely saw some huge names on that roster
