Oh wow... poor dude. Imagine you have THIS level of talent and nobody cares around you.
Of course family is more important and I guess his dad wants him to study. But it's sad because when he'd have continued like that we'd talk now about ComeBack, s0pp and Best.

posted 2 months ago

s0pp will def. be signed by a VCT team in 2026!

I think he's the most talented Turkish Duelist after ComeBack at the moment. His entries are crazier than those of lovers rock and xeus.

Btw.: Does somebody know where Best is? That kid was iiincredible.

Yeah... awesome. xD

But I guess with upcoming family, wife etc. it makes sense to get the better paid contract. Wish him all the best.

Wow, what a game. Very close on 2 maps. But I actually thought TSM could do this.

Honestly... slowly but surely I have the feeling Derke was right with trexx being not a very good team player and having not the best communication (even though it was lame to make that a public discussion like that - that's a thing for some childish streamers).

And also I've a heard a player from T2 in a stream mentioning it as well once.

Maybe it's the English language? I feel like we have so many crazy Russian speaking talents and players that Gambit could start another team under Serbian flag.

There have been several cups in T2-T3 this season with many Russian teams there... so many talents.

Neon and erde will be so crazy at LEV!

Big mistake in my eyes. Wish him all the best.
I'd never release N4RRATE or bang... both are so talented. Especially bang. I think he is easily a top 3 Controller in NA when it comes to talent... maybe even the most talented ones.Would prob. be a better idea to sign a performance coach that helps bang and other players.

But what do I know? Prob. not much about this.

TSM and NV both look dangerous af.

Btw.: TSM could be the next insane story after NRG. Nbs is one of the best EU coaches, just like bonkar... and TSM is full of finest NA talent. Recipe is prepared.

Ah, okay. Didn't know that. So he just swapped to umu7 for fun?

Yeah, I found out it's a music genre... xD I liked his previous name more (umu7).

al0rante and xuss really need to activate their killer modes to have a chance tonight...

I hope for at least a nice match!

Edit: Hmm... al0 was really good on Haven and xuss was pretty decent in general, but BCF are simply on another level than FOKUS.
And yeah, even tho al0 is my fav. player - I really like the BCF guys and I wish them all the best!

Chaza has brutal aim but is still so young... mistakes happen. Chadi gets better and better. KPI could have won this in all honesty... but still: GG!

posted 2 months ago

When BCF wins Ascension, FUT just could sign the players that won't be signed by some other orgs (like f.e. Lar0k who is gonna be contract hunted) and combine it with players from the Turkish league. These kids are just next level hungry and talented... what I've seen from s0pp, echo, lovers rock, Spear, JrayN, Padisah, Crewen, Loita etc. is crazy. They have something like an unlimited will to compete.

But i.g. it's so crazy to see this "next generation" of possible VCT players. The amount of <19 years young prodigies seems especially high in EMEA and South Korea.

posted 2 months ago

mini said in an video that Anderzz is a very good coach (they worked together at FNC). I wonder which team will get gim... maybe C9 because GUGLi left?!

It's also crazy that 3 of the best EU coaches work not in EU (prob. because of sh*tty payment)... bonkar (NRG), Nbs (TSM); so the only 2 EU Champions winning head coaches and shhhack who was named as one of the best assistant coaches in the past. Coaching in VCT is easily the biggest issue of EU compared to NA leaguewise.

posted 2 months ago

So the LEV academy team and other academy teams are i.g. not allowed to compete right? When I see Neon and erde, these kids need to be in VCT. Like the South-American canezerra and ion / Sayonara and Lar0k.

But yeah, this will be super dominant by NV.

The sad thing is that Leo was prepared to become the new IGL afaik. Fnatic def. needs to start coaching Chronicle to become the new IGL, I doubt that Boaster will play more than 1 more season (he gave a hint this year).

I think with a way quicker playstyle that benefits the strengths of kaajak and Alfajer, we could see a totally new Fnatic. When Boaster stops, crashies will def. return to NA so they need 2 new players then. That could become a crazy team. But we will see what happens...

posted 2 months ago

Congrats to NRG, that was BEAUTIFUL Valorant!

  • Ethan... x2 Champions within ~5 years of competitive Valorant... insane statement
  • mada the 2nd rookie becoming a Champions winner... insane statement
  • kaajak most kills (90!!!) in the Champions-GF and the only good KD at Fnatic while being a rookie... insane statement
  • bonkar got called a fraud by Chet and showed after very good seasons with OXG and NRG in such a short amount of time that he is indeed the smartest tactician in Valorant (just as Sayf said it 2 years ago)... insane statement
posted 2 months ago

kaajak as a rookie plays the best while all these experienced guys on Fnatic are just getting cooked by a totally new team.

bonkar simply read Fnatic and the NRG dudes are destroying them with perfect anti-strats. This is PEAK Valorant. Like mini-dreams-about-it-peak-Valorant.

Yesterday they were discussing if either a NA team with EU coach will win or a EU team with NA legend player... guess it's the NA team with EU coach. And absolutely deserved. NRG playing so damn good.

crashies did the Leo today <3 What a match from Austin!

After a bad first map they really showed what they're still capable of.

GGs!

Btw.: Slowly but surely I think it's enough with Boaster dancing after every clutch from a mate... Maybe I'm wrong, tho. I love that dude and his speech was amazing.

posted 2 months ago

I don't like the dancing / standing up all the time, but in the end... it's dancing, it doesn't hurt no one. I don't need to like it, if it helps him to deal with adrenaline, fine. Not everyone is the same.

posted 2 months ago

Will be way closer this time. Fnatic def. needs to check if Alfa can do this?! He looked super tired today (no wonder after that illness). I hope he gets fit until tomorrow. <3

When Fnatic is able to replicate the 25-09 performance, they can win this. If not, DRX will win. And nobody can hate on MaKo and DRX... they deserve everything, just like all teams in the top 4.

posted 3 months ago

Why? Fnatic plays great Valorant since 2023 with ups and downs. People are no robots, Alfajer was ill, they had 3 days no real practicing now.
Tomorrow: New day, new chance.

I'm happy for bonkar, s0m, mada... great team, wholesome dudes. s0m waits for how long on a trophy now? MaKo, too. So NRG and DRX deserve just as much as Fnatic.

I just want to see great matches, even though I'm the happiest when Fnatic wins. It's like with all other sports... I watch it and enjoy it and even if another team wins it's 100% fine. It's not my life, even though I'm currently spending a lot of time watching it in my freetime.

posted 3 months ago

Bro, I'm checking from being on the way and it seems I can chill with coming home... xD
bonkar / NRG reading Fnatic like a book.

I've read on X that Alfa was fit again - does he play like it?

Anyways... GGs to NRG. If they win, they deserve it.

In march Sayo can play VCT, so they can start scrimming with him just like TH did it in 2024 with Wo0t when he was 17.

Derke, Sayonara, Sayf, Less.

Sayf can easily do the IGL job, he showed it. Maybe the break was needed just as we saw it with NRG and Ethan. Not look at NRG with Ethan IGLing on attempt 2 -> one of the most dangerous teams.

And I think Vitality also had several issues with the whole team situation. So after the first major where they beat plenty of the big teams (even T1, who later won it) they fell down due to a lack of willpower and organisation.

When Sayf is IGLing and crashies stays with Fnatic, I'm sure a top wanted dude like Lar0k could be a realistic signing. And THAT team would be brutal as hell.

Derke (Duelist)
Lar0k (Initiator -> Breach etc.)
Sayonara (Initiator -> Sova etc.)
Less (Controller / Sentinel)
Sayf (Flex / IGL)

Nice list. I add mine, too there. :) Watched a lot of T2 after hospital break at home. xD

Btw.: Do you know whats up with "Best"? He was such an amazing player (played with Slaughter) and he kinda disapperard.

TenZ double flick on ranked (ohnepixel: "interesting"), Wo0t vs. Derke on Lotus, kaajak vs. PRX on Icebox, aspas on Ascent (forgot the match)...

posted 3 months ago

Keiko and SUYGETSU easily are on int. top-notch standard and both also belong to the best riflers. Boaster is good, PROFEK is good, Ruxic was called by Milan or somebody (forget who it was) as one of the biggest smoking talents in the world.

EMEA lacks no good players or talents. The region lacks S-Tier coaches - only a few teams are covered there. Many good European coaches left to Americas or international stage i.g.

It was legit but it was with ping delay and nobody can tell me he wouldn't grind harder for a major than for EWC even tho you might win good money there. I mean did you see cheating at EWC? I didn't. And if someone go illegal with the Saudis def. no Spanish org. I just saw plenty of good matches but you can't rate it as a major because of no lan server standards as simple as that.
