it's a BO5

that's just for show so that morons like you don't suspect a thing

.... lmao do you not know Zellsis

IT IS

oh shit

I only follow NA I get gambit aren't gonna be at masters because of the Russia-Ukraine war but how tf did the defending world champion(Acend) get knocked out?

Gaurd is good C9 better.

lmao phir to Malboro hi phookh

Nashedi bsdk .... but tbh i prefer B&H

Was there ever a doubt?

Riot needs to nerf it

Do you think they chose that because they were defending first? I mean chamber and KJ is kind of overkill I think leaf on Skye is just so much more effective overall. maybe if they were playing vs 1 controller this might have worked chamber ult felt useless.

What scrimbux?

why isn't sacred playing?

I mean how a roster looks on paper and how it performs are two different things

hahahaha dude someone has to be tier 1 ... do you not understand what tier means?

xset is good but they underperformed in LCQ let's see what they do this year

I think the top 4 (C9, Sen, Envy, and 100T) are the only tier1 teams in NA do you think any other teams are on their level? maybe RISE?

didn't you guys said the same thing after berlin and before champions?

hahahaha fuck ... this is what happens when you stay up till 6 am watching VCT i really should get some sleep

hahahahahha bunch of Liquid fans high on copium

1. Fanatic - Because both teams they faced VS and C9 were pretty strong. C9 match got very close even though Leaf and Xeppa weren't playing that good Fnatic had amazing strats and both the teams had no answers.

2. Gambit - I don't think they have any strats or set plays xD and tbh that seems to be their strength each and every player on their team is soo cracked they could just be like fuck you, we will come A and they will still win the round.

3. Cloud 9 - I think Cloud9 and Liquid are almost on the same level I placed them above Liquid because they have a deeper Map pool Liquid sucks at Bind and we haven't seen their Fracture, The biggest strength of Cloud 9 is the agent and Map pools they are so flexible if they wanna counter strat any team I don't think It would be that difficult.

4. Liquid - I think Liquid could easily be #2 if they had a better coach I still think they depend a lot on individual performance, only they can match Gambit in terms of raw individual skills.

5. X10 - I don't think I have to explain this to anyone these guys play like they have nothing to lose and their aim is just wow they can be soo aggressive and they can literally fuck with any team's gameplan as we saw vs Envy I swear Envy vs X10 felt like two pro teams playing ranked after snorting coke they could be higher up as well but we haven't seen them play against any other top team but I could definitely see them causing an upset.

6. Acend - Nothing much to say we saw average performances nothing too good they actually lost to VK if it wasn't for that cypher cam they might have been on their way back home their Bind is amazing but most teams will ban it anyway.

7. Team Secret - Very solid performance by them so far but as a SEA team they lack the experience of playing at this level so can't really say anything about them but I would be shocked if they managed to beat Acend.

8. KRU - Yeah I know they managed to beat Sentinals but that was just 1 match Sentinals had a bad game and KRU had the whole world supporting them I am pretty sure Fnatic will beat the shit out of them, no offence I was also supporting them vs Sen, they played a pretty good game but top 8 in the Championship ain't that bad I really hope they prove me wrong.

Really better than Chronicle?

Lmao KRU might be good but they aren't on the same level as NA/EU teams

I mean if that's true then group D is gonna be really scary.

really? I mean if that's true I'm very surprised that no one is talking about them.

dude where did you read that? ... I mean here is a tweet from a fairly reliable source xD https://twitter.com/Compilat2Reddit/status/1465391373771755522 have a look

dude come on when was the last time fnatic played good valorant?

What I have read is Sentinals, Cloud 9 Blue, Gambit, TL, Vision Strikers & VK are very impressive while Fanatic, Team Secret, and Envy have been underwhelming and the rest are performing as expected.
