Already the best jp team

Bold of you to assume I do anything other than play valorant for hours on end with no break

The lack of self-awareness is funny

tbf russ was kinda hitting this year though

I would never wish death upon anyone, but if you're not killing babyj in this situation, idk wtf you're doing.

I hate to burst your bubble but lot's of players in low elo aim like that. I can confirm this as someone who has been hardstuck in gold/silver for a while. You're going to have to be a lot better to make asc.

This is a flor thread so I should run away before I lose my sanity, but I just wanna say that Icy and flor are different kinds of duelists. That's all.

Bro, I think he can tell when his team is getting owned by one player. Also, for the record, I never said I necessarily agree, but TenZ has played against enough players to know when a player stands out.

Yes it does

I mean I wouldn't compare them necessarily but I'm also a gold player. This whole thing has started because one of the most seasoned pro players thinks primmie has better aim. I think TenZ would know a thing or two about aiming, but that might just be me.

You mean the last two of his only three pro T1 games ever? Icl, he's cooked, bro. Can't even go +20 in one of his first 3 games lol.

They definitely have potential but jitboys and ban need to step up. If those two can play consistently well, alongside primmie, they can do some damage.

After watching the clip people need to chill a little bit. He said primmie is better specifically on mechanics, not as a player, and also, that he's especially strong on holding angles. It's really not as crazy as people are making it out to be.

I have no idea what to expect from Talon, but at the same time, I feel like primmie might get let down by the rest of the team.

wait mb...I didn't see the talon pick. W for that actually.

Most boring preds of all time lol

To me, it's just that SEN has clearly played well in the past, and FPX actually performed well against both TH/GENG in Shanghai.

icl changed my preds to this (before this post)...

But like it actually has legs, and there's gotta be chaos somewhere.

Bro, it's really not that deep lol.

They're gonna need that form to make it out of groups lol. Not one even remotely easy game.

You gotta think the opposite. You have to believe in your aim, otherwise you're gonna miss a lot of shots you'd hit in a DM.

I pretty much only use DMs to aim train, but I try to practice movement and crosshair placement. It's actually helped me a lot, like my aim has improved significantly as a result. I do think my sens/dpi combo is a little too high, but I've been using it for so long that I don't want to change it.

I'm a low elo player (G3 peak), but I do think that just practicing on specific aspects of taking gunfights, not just straight-up aim, will help a lot. Just working on movement or where you're putting your crosshair when holding angles, will honestly help your aim more than flicking, or spray control.

If you're wondering about how to improve performance, I think just try to improve your mental. Tbh, you probably have better aim than you think, you just have to make sure you're not getting frustrated from slow starts. I have shit mental, and something that helped was putting on music at low volume. It helped take my mind off the game to the point where even after slow starts my aim would pick up eventually. Sometimes all you really need is just to hit that one shot, and your aim just comes alive.

My question is why are people overrating them? Woot had an insane Shanghai, but aside from TH isn't anything special. Sure they're a good team, but like they're a 3rd seed for a reason.

Man United because I did a GM mode of them on FIFA 14, and I guess I just decided I'd root for them. Also, Fiorentina because I studied abroad in Florence during the spring of this year.

Chamber has no util, it's basically a gamble that your chamber player will get a lot of kills, especially FKs.

Idk if the rumors are true or not, but it should be noted that while ejaculating in someone without their consent isn't necessarily rape, it still counts as sexual assault.

Most teams ran Viper on Haven last time it was in the pool. Viper is still pretty good even after the nerf, so it's not that crazy.

The sad thing is a lot of people don't appreciate what PRX does for the game. PRX just gives off the vibe of friends 5 stacking and having fun, plus they're always doing something new and innovative. They're just one of those teams that's hard to root against.

I guess all they're known for is choking and having annoying fans, unfortunately.

Bro is still traumatized lmao

What's the point? You can't have an 8-team playoffs at an 8-team masters if you also have a group stage. If anything, the 8-team masters theoretically has a higher level of competition. With fewer slots in both the event and the playoffs, only the best of the best can make it.

It's not Mickey Mouse at all, but at the same time, you have to admit the competition was considerably weaker than in most tournaments.

Viper
Omen
Astra
Brim
Harbor
Clove

I love when my favorite MENA team doesn't have any MENA players.

You can do what you want bro, I'm not referring to your post, just some replies.

rn, it's Like Moths to Flames

It's just SEN haters or EMEA fans trying to make it seem like winning Madrid was the same as winning lock-in.

A normal masters is just the same thing but with more teams. It's legit the exact same format except a slightly lower percentage of teams made it to playoffs at Madrid than at a 12-team masters.

Comparing Madrid to lock-in makes no sense lmao. LockIn every team auto qualified and it was single elimination playoffs. Half the teams only played one game.

Madrid had an actual qualification system, there was a group stage in the event to determine the playoffs, and there was double-elimination playoffs.

Bro that shit is not funny

It simply comes to two things, emotions and that people have gotten much more sensitive to sexual assault and harassment against women.

The thing is though, as we've discussed already getting falsely accused of sexual assault is serious. If you're the one accused, you'd want the air to be cleared immediately, and if you're the org you'd want the same thing. The longer this goes on, the more guilty it makes them look.

Icl bro wtf did you expect? Like everyone to agree with you? It's the internet, my guy, people are gonna disagree, especially on something like this.

I don't really know much about this case I'll be honest, but it's also difficult since we don't know who the accusation is on. Like if it is Flashback, surely by now he'd comment on it saying he didn't do it.

I just always associate cancel culture with a small subjection of the internet that either overreacts or just wants to fuck with people. I don't consider it to be this massive movement that a lot of people do. 90% of what people claim cancel culture is, is just them getting flack for questionable behavior.

And I wasn't trying to downplay false accusations. I just think people don't really understand how bad the sexual assault and harassment problem still is. It's partly because people bring up false accusations every time a woman comes forward with little evidence. It does kind of control the narrative, unfortunately.

I'm not downplaying false accusations though. And sure, you'll one every now and then with celebrities because some sick girl wants to try to make some money or ruin a famous person's life, but most women aren't like that.

Idk much about gender dynamics in places outside the US, so that's there. The point though isn't about believing without evidence as it is not believing due to a lack of evidence. It's difficult to tow that line though, but on some level, it's kind of necessary since it often takes time before women feel comfortable coming out about their experiences.

I don't think it really has to do with cancel culture. I just think it's that people have gotten much more sensitive to sexual assault and harassment towards women.

Also, sure false accusations are messed up, but I never said they weren't. It's they happen rarely, and that the number of women who never speak up about their assault is vastly higher than the number of false accusations.

You'll find it a decent amount in your games, but as an owner of that skin, it's worth it. The headshots are so satisfying. It's popular for a reason.

This isn't a product of cancel culture though. It's a product of people trying to make it safer for women to come forward after being sexually assaulted or harassed. I don't think the point is to automatically assume wrongdoing on the part of the accused, but sometimes it looks that way when there's little evidence to back up the claims.

The thing people don't seem to get is that false accusations really don't happen that much, especially in comparison with how many sexual assaults go unreported. You're only going to see what gets attention and false accusations get attention, but there's so much shit that happens that people aren't aware of.

You should definitely be keeping an eye on GENG. GENG made both finals so far. LEV changed their coach after the last masters, and since have been looking a lot better.
