Willing to give explanations for each matchup

Surely Legija is next, no?

Article says 50 minutes ago this was so pre-fired lol.

Gg fnatic

Gamer

We fucking made it man, who would of thought. TRACE ESPORTTTTTTSSSSSS

Necroing just to show that I'm a day 1 fan

G2 2-1 Fnatic

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/9922c90c This site doesn't watch china and it shows

SaD season ended when Bob left the team

1. Riot not paying for that
2. These teams are not going to pay for that
3. Not enough people are going to watch for it to even be worth it

Dude

1st Seed - Gen G (Pacific)
2nd Seed - FPX (China)
3rd Seed - Team Heretics (EMEA)
4th Seed - Sentinels (NA)

If the random draw hits this combo its going to be so fucked

Vitality win today please so Trace aren't in the same group as Heretics

My pain is immeasurable

Ya'll expect him to just roll over and say a whole host of teams are better than his champion run?

They should run this 5 man back next season but commit Tuyz to duelist completely, If you punt out Saadhaak you're punting the org to MIBR tier

But JDG is on a tear right now, idk if they have the firepower to stop Stew and Viva

your flair about to choke away playoffs this week

Shank's reels actually gives me concern for what media the children are consuming

I mean this in the most honest way possible.

That was a way that Weibo gaming would throw a round

JDG's definitely coming into form at the right time, they seemed primed for a champions spot for sure. EDG and FPX are both locked in for sure, so I see Trace and JDG picking up those other two spots.

JP flag with NRG flair

Haodong and After both need to go, this team needs a leadership rework so badly

vibe check

If you have EDG that high how can you justify FPX being that low, I'd probably move FPX over T1 and move EDG all the way below Gen G

You really don't comprehend how bad Furia are

Kapiko masterclass

With how badly BLG lost today, nova is basically control their own destiny now

It's insane that all gamers have 3 wins this split with a coach playing

I'm all aboard the Trace Esports tactical 4th place finish in split 1 to adjust to viper changes cope

Luok1ng don't push up A main challenge

2 gun rounds in an entire series is insane

FengF has been goin nuts in CN this year so far, would be interested to see how many he's racked up

T1 can definitely beat Zeta, but I am scared for them making it out of their group now

I think they play each other split 2

What a series man, probably the most entertaining of week one and it was saved for last

I have no clue how the roles are going to look for Nova, could see them stealing a map but I am counting on my goat Destroyer to make in game adjustments as necessary

After Ascent, JDG looked a lot better. Nobody was frying on map 3 and without that performance I don't think EDG win this series. Still a lot of sloppy plays and while they had some different ideas, a lot of the stuff on Split had me scratching my head. One round where Chichoo is solo pushing A ramp with no help right into an OP and then another round where Haodong just jumps through mid to vent and gets picked off from behind. Individual plays continue to bail them out but I'm not sure how much longer that will last in their own region.

Somebody check on K0rya

I wonder who they will end up putting at smokes between Cxyy and LuoK1ng, and I'm happy they have some additional coaching help to aid Destroyer. In this day and age its very tough to have a strong squad without a strong support staff around them as well. I hate losing out on Flex1n, but I'll still be supporting this team through the 2024 season,

Side Note - Whats the info on CN Tier 2 circuit? I haven't seen anything on it as of yet with the regular season starting soon. Would like to see someone like XYG loaned to a tier 2 CN team so they can get some active game reps in before possibly being promoted to the main squad

OP is bringing up Marved too who was a previous 6th men so thats why Kamyk felt qualified to bring up for the post

Fnatic 6th man Kamyk is very good, just never saw him outside of like week 1 EMEA

??? It's guaranteed to be a 1 seed vs. A 2 seed out of the Swiss stage, and loud has already faced Gen G in this tournament so of course this is the only outcome that's fair

Genuine journalism W

Kan't Kan't

Could even add no Sayaplayer, and possibly victor and crashies too

Thats kinda funny lmao

You're so real for this

Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG Trace can beat EDG

We got this
