I think even if Sen or TH place higher here there's an argument that even then GenG would be better given their international placements in the previous 2 and domestics have been top 2 minimum every event

Honestly as a heretics believer I won't be shocked if that happens.
Not likely, it'll mostly be 2-1
But all I'm saying is I genuinely won't be surprised

Ain't no way you're disrespecting GenG

First part read to completion
Second I'm halfway through

Not true, Steve Arhancet does

Thank you!
I've included them all and will get them soon

This time he better not focus on IGLing

This time, not the IGL please!

Honestly fair lmaoo

I have a train journey and need some thriller (or non thriller but good fiction novel) recommendations.
I've liked Agatha Christie's works and have read some of her famous and lesser known works.
Recently finished To Kill a Mockingbird for a change of pace and the Hidden Hindu trilogy (pretty good plot wise NGL, kept me on the edge)
Need some good underrated thrillers that'll keep me on turning pages.
I've liked The housemaid, Robert Langdon series for ref.
I do have Verity and Silent Patient with me but need something else as well, would be a combined 30 hours of journey so need some good recommendation!

He was good in 2023 tbh with the Sayf redgar soulcas roster.
His Skye and chamber were insane.
I still remember the 2 aces on split against KC I think.
This year tho, he hasn't been that way

Yeah I think - xffero would make sense if you do +tehbotoL

Yeah I don't think they're letting go of Meiy that easily

Honestly, 7/8

This is a very well summarised response for how G2 play.
They're all most of the times equal stats wise because of the way they have their system in place.
Icy doesn't need to go +15 every map but he needs to enable them to do what they are doing, in which he's clearly doing a great job.
I think people still don't credit G2 enough, they play very well and in a more different manner than most teams

Run it back with the Sayf-Leo-Trexx trio on Vitality

Wait what.
If I remember correctly you should have deleted your account because of a certain statement you made some time back

BRO IS BACK IN HIS PRIME FORM

VCT Pacific Kickoff 2024 as well along with Masters Shanghai and Stage 2
And as per Liquipedia, it was also an S tier event

I think by now, Munchkin probably has taken that spot.
Managing that team and making 5 grand finals in a row is ridiculous (winning 3 of them)

He's proven that stats don't mean everything, he enables G2 to perform in their system.
W icy

Aight so if the basis is stats then Chronicle is better solely based on the fact that Champs is more forgiving with 16 teams and double elimination and Lock//In was single elimination 32 teams

Yeah honestly fair, but still the fact that those shots are still easier to whiff (don't ask me it's the shots where the enemies don't look at you that you whiff the most, can attest from personal experience) makes it look that much more ballsy.
Fair analysis though

Let them cook🗣️🔥

What makes you think it is not a high risk high reward?
I mean you're guaranteed sacrificing yourself so unless you get 2 you'll only be either equalising the numbers or you whiff your shots and now it's a 5v4 with some major util gone.
I understand it's not that all crazy but that's for sure one of the most high risk high reward plays of all time

the embodiment of high risk, high reward

balls of kryptonite

Not having Riens there is kinda crazy no?
With Leo being inactive there's an argument that he's the best initiator in EMEA and possibly contending for in the world too

I'd say so and he's the only one I suppose who has has this level of consistency on 3 rosters.
People may not remember but he and Guild were pretty good, made prime optic lose and made yay go negative for the first time in the longest time
Carried Liquid despite calling issues
And now onto vitality.
That's 3 different rosters, 3 different environments and he's still at it

This is winning every lan to come till 2026

Bruh this is interesting to say the least ☠️

They just can't digest the fact that G2 have a system and icy works for that system, they play differently and do not even need icy to go double positive but when he does that's a cherry on top.
Icy has been real good, his older stats are deceiving, kinda like Kru was last time, losing all games so you'd think they're bad but all the games being close.

We will have to see. Revenge would go hard for GenG, 3-2

Oh yeah mb, that was a mistake on my end

Vouch

Oh yes, Karon is almost at 1000 too.
There's nothing much to say man, they play real good Valorant.

Yeah man, I honestly would like to see them make finals, that'll be a completely unrelated stat and we might have the longest standing 'most consistent' team in Valorant history by that.

Yeah it's like mechanical prowess paired with actually great mid rounding and strats.
They always turn up, one of them can save a game

With this win, GenG are now a team which will have played a grand final in every event they've been to this year.
Kickoff finals ✅
Masters Madrid finals ✅
Stage 1 finals ✅
Masters Shanghai finals ✅
Stage 2 finals ✅
Absolutely insane, they've been insane throughout

Facts bro, he has a default aura just by the way he carries himself

S0m
FNS
Ethan
Verno
Reduxx

Battle of 0s

I think they've both proved they're both amazing on Omen.
Here's another fact to sell you that they're perhaps on equal terms
S0m -> remove the first Letter (S) => 0m ≈ Om
TenZ => remove the first letter (T, comes after S alphabetically too, they're near each other) => enZ
Hence when you combine both you get OmenZ or W Omen mains
Okay, idk why I typed whatever I did but aight.

Nah that Newton joke is S tier

Fr

How and when did you lose your stars?

1. That's just the Org being an L org
2. Sykko said that for TenZ so he did not in fact assert it himself but alright can count.
3. During the time he said this he mentioned it in that present tense ('I am' and not 'I will be' or 'I'll continue to be') and at the time he was the best player in the world.
4. Valid
5. Valid
6. The goat keith promising us but losing our to BiliBili twice

Exactly my thoughts.
I definitely had them like 3-4th in APAC
But man do they play some real good Valorant.
Munchkin is such an insane IGL
