I've noticed that most users from SEA think CN teams are going to dominate while a lot of EMEA/NA users have NTH or DK winning. Did some SEA pro say on stream that they were insane in scrims? (aside from them beating Bleed in scrims)

Last bump before the event

I like thunderstorms :)

well they did just pick up two new players

TLDR: Styling911 and his 19 alt accounts

EG threw so many rounds that match and they choked so fucking hard on Breeze. They still look better than SEN, SR, C9, or TGrd though, unlucky that they got placed with all the actual contenders

DRX is mega consistent, 5-6th all the way lol

The bottom half of the NA bracket looks really good, just the top half is bad.

I wonder if Riot plans on including LAN in franchising or if it’ll just be 1-2 LAS teams

100 Thieves, you should support the young talent

new copypasta just dropped: "I don’t think there’s any rivals among the competing teams. When I play in scrims or watch their matches, I feel we play better than them"

they can't because of political reasons

Astra- SugarZ3ro
Breach - Stax
Jett - Aspas
Raze - Jinggg

Xeta added a clutch factor and good vibes to the team, C9 has been looking a lot more tilted recently. But you know, his English wasn't perfect...

T1 has got to have the best negotiators in the world

imagine trading Xeta and Autumn for curry and no extra cash

cause us foreigners don't speak Spanish or Portuguese and would like to watch

would you prefer to see NiP or mibr make franchising? both fled their original region to try to capitalize on a weaker one

She was boosting, account sharing, and apparently one of the friends that she was doing this with had a name supporting the Nanjing Massacre. Definitely deserved to be kicked but I feel bad for the rest of her teammates.

thank god they didn't choke that, ONIC to Champions!

they may win this, but i'd be malding so hard if I was an ONIC fan right now

1. Switzerland (Zurich)
2. Japan (Nagano) <-- for the monkey hotsprings
3. Vietnam (Hanoi)
4. South Africa (Cape Town)
5. Argentina (Ushuaia)

platchat received several threats from fans when they made the tier list that memed on Zeta

The username her friend was using while boosting was also just unacceptable and the boosting/account sharing was the cherry on top. I feel bad for the rest of the team though, hopefully they can find a new 5th

i just don't get why they swapped agents this event. i thought disk0 primarily played initiators before this event

nope, disk0 and wronski were taking turns stealing my guy's agent

swap disk0 and rDeeW's roles on Breeze and they close out that map

One of the most misused players at the moment, disk0 should stick to the vandal

Brazil 🤝 SEN Fans 🤝 Zeta Fans

you're actually the biggest jinx, they just lost to a marshal and a classic

i can't wait for chamber to be nerfed

They committed too much on that round

It's because NA produces the most streamers compared to other regions. People care more about specific players then teams at the moment, so obviously they will join to watch their favorite streamer.

Phantom - Oni
Spectre - Singularity
Operator - Ion
Ghost - Magepunk
Odin - BlastX

there is a 2nd match?

How do you have a C9 flair and predict that 😭

Same

We haven't seen them play a single round, it's literally impossible to judge

VN viewership isn’t high either, it’s closer to OCE’s numbers than ID/PH/TH

regions that league is popular in, like VN, HK/TW, and KR seem to struggle when it comes to Valorant. they don’t seem to put the same resources in that they could be, which is unfortunate for the scene

Discipline diff

I agree with this but stop spamming it

Like 98% of people have either Bleed, ONIC, or Secret winning it all, the other 2% are delusional Order fans

The org needs to rebrand before franchising, good luck trying to get sponsors with 'bleed' in the title of your name

you could take it easy and stick with simple stuff and then eventually mix in more color to your wardrobe. it's difficult to mess up styling colors like black, white, and tan, so I'd start with those. get some accessories (watches, rings, chains) and a nice pair of shoes and you're good

Japan, Korea, APAC, or LATAM. EMEA, NA, and BR already get plenty of coverage while the other regions don’t even get articles on roster changes.

Brazil has a more fleshed out T2 scene cause they have more orgs and players, but LATAM have better and more T1 international level teams, since BR is just Loud. So overall, I'd say latam is the better region between the two for now.

look to the right where it says maps (they have this for every tournament): https://liquipedia.net/valorant/VCT/2022/North_America/Last_Chance_Qualifier

Breeze has got to be the most boring map in the game
