Doesn't suck. They're improving.
International LAN. Where stakes are a lot higher. Different events, different pressure. Remember, they're also under the pressure of going for a deep run if they want to go for Champions. In the end, they want to learn from the experience and have fun.
Please, I'll let you embarass yourself even further.
Will that stop me? Hell nah.
Shut up. What do you know with Japan as a region?
It's Nth's first LAN as a roster. They've been on the precipice for so long, only for CR and ZETA to stop them in their tracks. Now, they've beaten their regional demons, and faced new ones. They're learning from the experience. Stop downplaying Japan as soon as ZETA is out of the picturr.
Hey look. It's a Thai vs Japanese match again. Time to uhh... run it back.
Sushi turret kill gotta be a tradition
Welcome to controlled chaos. Enjoy your stay.
Xerxia potentially winning FPX's map pifk? Truly the APAC playstyle.
There's empathy, then there's competition. In the end, you're going for the win. Nothing more, nothing less.
We're going to use everything at our disposal. The APAC way.
Just wait. It's coming. We didn't forget about them.
Tough but considering I have a soft spot for Old Nth, old Nth has a slight advantage. They were rather unassuming (being the 3rd-4th best team behind ZETA, CR, maybe Reject) for the entirety of 2021, and they weren't even supposed to make it to LCQ. They made it in because ZETA decided to pull out, and the China slots were reallocated to KR and JP. And you know what? They got hot at the right fucking time. Nobody expected Northeption to go forward the way they did. It was magical. Then the magic was stopped by FS who were also running a path of redemption, getting reverse sweeped. Tough.
Although, new Nth shows that the Nth spirit that existed during last year's LCQ passed on to the new Nth, and they were still the 3rd best team behind ZETA and CR. They're capable in their own rights.
By the way, the logo that's being held by Chamber isn't Acend. That's Ascent Esports, an old TF2 team.
Maybe he did, but it's clear he's not taking any chances. Information needs to be clarified.
It's not about the meme. The meme is fine. I don't mind it, and it's in all good fun. But when you're a journalist or reporter (like George and others), gathering information and trying to clarify whether or not this is a meme or a legit thing (XSET did this once with their own R6 player) and to consider Shroud actually signed to Sentinels, people are just doing their due diligence and make sure this isn't some level 100 bait.
Welcome to Chinese aggression. Deathmatch and fragging come first, utility comes later. Or help to frag.
Surprisingly it's a tad bigger than OCE, IIRC. Those three are the smallest but I'd argue Vietnam has more Riot support and HK/TW has at least more leeway as one of the original five subregions of SEA.
It's by far the smallest subregion population-wise within APAC. The scene is recovering from what happened last year. It's not dead, but it's just there.
If Northeption couldn't make it to the top 4
I really don't mind the comments saying CN teams will struggle - while they consistently scrimmed against other APAC teams, there are some aspects of their strats and gameplay that show they're just one step behind the more established teams. I have similar sentiments, but I have certified Chinese Valorant Copium and I am excited to see some extra entertaining gameplay.
Ppl really be forgetting their absolute chaos in Counter Strike other than Crossfire and other F2P FPS games
Numerous teams have scrimmed CN teams in the past and have been terrorized by them for better or for worse. They might be not as good as some upper echelon Asian teams (to be determined at E-A LCQ,) but bringing a team from a region that has the aggressiveness of Paper Rex x 10 (per se,) can be one hell of an entertaining show.
Recount that Lakia said CN teams were super aggressive and Redkoh (formerly of LVR) have said CN teams were one of the few that made them sweat kinda
Nuturn kinda dead though
I'm not going to say shit because by far OCE has been on the literal end of the bad stick between a slot removal, apparent bad communication from the league ops to the teams, and the fact Riot NA tried to murder the OCE ecosystem at the start of Valorant. They're still a ways off, but damn if they're not filled with amazing and talented players.
Technically they kinda are. Zhuque is the 'academy' team.
Actually, they do have some rock and heavy metal in the past. Search up Pentakill, they opened up LCS before. League often steers toward pop music and EDM, while Valorant is geared toward club-adjacent music, and heavy, electronic styles.

I think this could've been a restart
Fellas, it's not match-fixing. whz cannot carry the entire damn team. As mediocre as ASE were, they only lost to NTER and KONE. Those teams were behind TOE before this loss.
As much as I hate the cynicism of the posts above me, I do agree that they are talented players, but there's something... missing. I don't mind if OCE players pop up in other regions but having been a spectator when Riot NA almost killed OCE in League and early Valorant, I just want them to flourish organically in their domestic region, not saying an international excursion won't do them any good.
I just don't want to see another EXO Clan/Soniqs situation ever again.
China isn't part of the VCT. The game isn't officially out in China, and China's path to the LCQ is designated as a third-party event. The rule only applies, like cyk said, when both teams are participating in an official VCT-sanctioned event.
I wasn't planning on downplaying yall, I'm just saying hold your horses because this team is what the score indicates.
Madness is kinda not good btw
Deadass that is the team name I did not change anything
Incorrect. It's always been the majority of the active roster. I've set it as International.
Not the goddamn same
