untrue

1-3 are all facts, 4-5 i agree with.

it's as if everyone on this website thinks the average person would take the highroad in this scenario. it's MONEY. idc who you are, 9/10 people are taking the replay

2 XSET members and d00mbros said it was riot's decision. how many more people have to corroborate this to prove it?

from @willminder on twitter:

it was originally misplaced hate towards xset, claiming they called for the replay, and when it was shown incorrect, the harsh tweets from FPX directed at XSET look really bad and people are hating on that now.

these discussions transcend the gameplay now, pretty much everyone agrees that fpx won fairly.

how many Valorant LANs have there been in NA?

fpx won fairly, is anyone saying otherwise?

tbh, i have no clue if they were able to say no or not. i mean, they could forfeit, but i don't know the implications on how that'll affect their future showings at riot events (because throwing is punishable by a ban).

and like i said, they are. they said their truth and haven't really spoken on it since.

that was tweeted before zekken and sykko's tweets (listed above)

that's not the takeaway here. there was miscommunication stemming from riot and the blame should be placed there.

i just don't see a universe where any team rejects the 2nd chance. money aside, if you feel like that bug affected the round (which it did, it split XSET's focus and stopped the double hold at tree that they had), why wouldn't you take that 2nd opportunity? you work for months for this title and ur supposed to give it up because of how things played out?

aight now you're just being obstinate

unsportsmanlike behavior isn't justified from this. there was no proof that XSET called for the replay and if FPX players put out hasty tweets to farm impressions then they're in the wrong.

or potentially 1st? you saw how xset played today, there's a reality where they could've won champs.

which they have been. what xset player has been complaining? all zekken and sykko did was state the facts and that's all

"even if they didn't force the replay, why did XSET agree to replay it"
it's a million dollar tournament. it's money. at the end of the day, XSET is an organization and a business.

don't blame the players or coaches, blame riot.

bro. it's a million dollar tournament. 9/10 people would have agreed to replay because it did affect the round (not in a major way but i don't blame them for accepting the replay)

i mean it's so easy to prove them wrong, it would look worse if they were caught lying

i meant it was weird to stir drama and imply that XSET were the ones who called for the replay, i didn't see zekken do that tbh

yeah, that's what i thought. i understand clowning on XSET cause it's all a meme, but it's a lil sad seeing people send hate

is there any hard proof that XSET called for the replay? like, has anyone from VCT stated anything? i saw the suygetsu tweet and ardiis's attitude and now i'm not so sure what to believe.

edit: zekken just tweeted this, "hey uhhh we didnt say anything about the turret bug"
https://twitter.com/zekkenVAL/status/1569832524083515393

edit 2: syyko tweeted, "We never asked to redo the round just FYI. Was 100% Riot initiated."

yikes, weird move

WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON

Acend type beat

when?

riot made the decision jfc

KJTURRET NICE NAME LMFAOOO

WHO KICKED THEIR PC LMAOOFIFOOFO I CANT

RIOT WHAT HAVE YOU DONE

both teams don't look like they wanna be there, shit looks so sad

fuck riot man, i understand "competitive integrity" but at what cost man? they know there's gonna be a shitstorm if XSET wins

most of VLR is unified which is a task no one's been able to do before

well done riot

kj can reverse time, shit is so busted

the round is about to start and XSET force a technical pause

pepelaugh

sheahhhh please don't bait rn :( currently we're all banding together to shit on riot

LIVE RN MINTE HURRY UP

NOW THIS I CAN GET BEHIND

i know there's been 3 threads on this, but i just want to reiterate and make sure that we're clowning RIOT for the outcome, not the individual players of XSET, correct?

i don't wanna see any vlr usernames sending hate or death threats to XSET's players

i doubt their opinion mattered, but even if it did, i don't blame them for accepting the replay. at the end of the day, if you place higher you get more money.

holy shit that's absurd

like it sucks that it happened and they're allowed to be upset but it shouldn't be replayed

I JUST WOKE UP FROM A NAP LMFAO WHAT IS GOING ON

why is he so handsome 😍😍😍

Every Man Eats Ass

imagine being so sad that you want to slander yay at all. man just shows up and does his job with a smile

W take
sick of people calling him toxic when all he does is banter
the tech pause shit was cringe but beyond that anything else he's done has been in good fun
