your hatred for anything Korean is kind of worrying, looking at your post history

T1 really needs to work on their defense rounds

I wanna see a little more from him before judging too hard but I think it would’ve been better if Ban was the 2nd initiator and Carpe was on smokes

xeta and saya activated

Replace cNed with Aspas and than put Cryo as #2 and you have a good list

idk man, clearly we disagree but I still think NAVI would be a lot better off if he just let cNed and Zyppan do the entrying instead, since they seem to be more successful at it

believe it or not, I have seem him play and he's not a very good entry player imo. he went -26 on FK/FD in Champions while on smokes when, to be honest, he shouldn't even be entrying in the first place, since if he dies the entire team loses smokes early for the rest of the round

You really think there is a mechanical gap between soulcas and the other members lol?

No i don't, that's my entire point. I'm saying that ANGE1 is a weaker link mechanically than the other two are, since TL deadass doesn't have a weak link tbh. As for ANGE1, his fragging is way below average and his FK/FD record is awful, so that's why I would consider him a weak link

ANGE1 is one of the best igl's but definitely a weak link bro
the gap between him mechanically and the rest of NAVI is larger than Boaster with FNC or soulcas with TL

Not really they’re fault, 100T, C9, and NRG all dropped out, so the 4 team tournament is kind of last second

Hmm, I'm the complete opposite. I find it annoying that they decided to resign a bunch of washed up players instead of signing new talent from orgs like SBE/NAOS/Oasis when they had the chance. They're new signings are alright but they should've just done a complete rebuild like Zeta did in 2021 in my opinion, but instead they resigned the boomers till 2026 lmfao. This roster along with DNG also might have the worst firepower in the entire Pacific league too, so I'm not real excited to watch them play

They'll definitely be signed as a team by a large org if they make it out of opens, but I wonder which one. Maybe Complexity or a LCS org like CLG or Flyquest?

Soniqs for real have to exit Valorant if they don't win the LCQ and i don't even mean that in a toxic way

NU were the first team to put Asia on the map

they'll either be one of the Ascension favorites or be the most washed team ever created imo

i think OXG are actually a pretty large org since they own Boston Breach and Boston Uprising

steel vs Virtuoso ptsd?

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/25748c4d

I used a random number generator for this entire pickem, honestly I could see this happening

tbh the only teams that I would consider "upsets" if they lost would be Dark Ratio and Oxygen, everything else is up in the air

jerseys look alright tbh but the logo and name is so ugly now. the Damwon logo was one of my favorites too man

You realize "Guild" are out right? (they most likely won't even get signed)

i respect the GIA pick

Just want to see people's thoughts on these matchups, just list the team you would have winning:

SEN vs LOUD
NRG vs 100T
LEV vs C9

PRX vs DRX
ZETA vs GE
TLN vs T1

NAVI vs FNC
TL vs GIA
KOI vs KC

I’m a fan of TGrd, but I wouldn’t call Tex an upgrade

nah man it’s puppies, I gotta click

YOU PUT BANG AT 7 BUT MAKO AT 20 LMFAO

sScary, Deryeon, ZmjjKK, Kadoom, Lakia, Surf, popagachi, Meiy

Fantastic move by Damwon, but I will never have faith in this team. Damwon are really the king of choking at this point

Hyeoni

Tex 💀

Bro really made this thread over a flyingdoggo bait lmfao

The NA fans on Reddit know so little about the Pacific scene it’s actually hilarious

OpTic vs DRX Upper Semi Finals in Reykjavik, DRX get the defuse that was at 0.04 seconds and win 2-0, making the 5-6th curse never happen

The person I was replying to didn’t mention Pancada bro

Vinland Saga and BSD

I’m only talking about smokes

I remember Seoldam and TENNN carrying, SugarZ3ro was solid but no where near carrying like he does today

Marved
MaKo
SugarZ3ro

NAts and Suygetsu only plays Viper
sScary and Mindfreak are close but I’d still say SugarZ3ro is better
Valyn and Vanity LMFAO
Bang is valid but needs to prove himself more

SugarZ3ro went from being a mediocre smokes player on NTH to being a top three controller in the world

Bleed fans in shambles realizing that their team will have to beat EDG to qualify

Tokyo will know his name fr

Japanese, Korean, and Chinese cuisine is all great wdym

It won’t be boring if we get a good format. I’d like to see two groups of five with the top three in each group moving on the to playoffs. If we get another 10 team Reykjavik type bracket though, then ten teams is awful.

You’ve seemed obsessed with Korean teams ever since we made fun of your precious EDG for being overhyped

they should be the first team to communicate with sign language, would be mad entertaining to watch

W Roster

true lol, orgs be trolling here

he’s a 6th man who genuinely might be better than some of these other Pacific league teams’ main duelist

MaKo Phoenix LFG

no need to bring a whole country into this lol
