they can keep him as their 6th man and play him once a year as 2nd duelist

Oh yea KOI played amazing no doubt
but NaVi also looked pretty bad today so idk
They're definitely suffering from having to play a lan while other lcq teams got to take a break imo

that is hardly relevant for the above dataset since its not exclusively based on EMEA (and at the time this data was taken Liquid had only played 2 matches on split)

a team preforming bad doesnt make a character bad - the sage isnt the reason TL only got 9 kills (5 of which were the cypher) in 6 rounds total on attack vs NRG, thats just them getting owned

Nah its a pretty good comp
Sage is super strong on Split in general; LEGIJA posted some stats a while ago (after Lothars sage take) and as you can see she works pretty well with cypher https://twitter.com/LEGIJAcs/status/1647723653809979393/photo/1

the long range shorty kill on the planter to send it into another round

that round was..... idek

(in Sliggys chat) ZE1SH said that he just had Sideshow shouting at him in his head after that round

my jinx' arent consistent, imma empower Zeta on accident

Thank you for the jinx

pretty dang good for a debut actually
nothing special on map 1, did really well on map 2 which TH won, and pretty bad on map 3 (though TH didnt know how to deal with KOIs comp in general so it didnt really matter)

its a ton of random questions so I dont think I can summarize much xD

main thing chat is asking about is "how do you rate xy player/team"

https://www.twitch.tv/legijaa is watchpartying atm and is answering a ton of questions chat has about the pacific league

Monyet and Bazzi have been SO nice for GE; out of the 4 duelists I wasnt expecting that the 2 flexing would be the ones carrying

I think he'd do well, ye^
Tenz is looking pretty good while hes the secondary duelist, so if he's on a team that wants to commit the playstyle, like prx, he should do well

Just look at the Bind vs 100t, he was doing a pretty dang good Something impression of just drifting around the map and taking duels in offangles

I just dont think Sen is the team for it tbh, and idk if theres another team that would be looking to make a prx like structure with tenz

he still is as far as we know, b0i just gets to do timeouts now so hes the one we see on stream

main reason I've seen is that they wont have time to get visas so the chance for them to not be able to attend champs is way too high

I opened stream right before he started screaming and oml that was a jumpscare and a half
RIIIIINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

have you read our takes?!

there was one in dach: https://www.vlr.gg/188547/unicorns-of-love-vs-ovation-esports-challengers-league-dach-evolution-split-2-r7/?game=122962
but ye insane performance by nAtank

desk said he does a couple minutes back so I guess?
he posts in english on twitter too from time to time irrc

he did right after the situation caught on^^ https://twitter.com/tentenvlrt/status/1676551477882671104

japanese fanbase went absolute wild with the whole situation
main thing he got critique over afaik is the go back to your anime comment (which some have explained to referring to TenTens profile picture being an anime one, rather than referring to TenTen playing in Japan) and the fact that they have apparently been beefing for a while before the clip happened

Haven't seen anything actually worth looking into, but ig we'll see what riot finds in their dms

yall be getting scammed

id prefer picking up one of the current top tier 2 duelists but ye that roster would be legit

doubt KC would do it though since their big thing is making all francophone rosters

he's on a team that should realistically be near the top or at the very least middle of the league, yet sits at the very bottom fighting with KC and TH over whos the worst team in EMEA
So naturally when a team full of potential falls completely flat many (me included tbh) turn to stats first and then he's the worst Jett player in EMEA
Is he the reason the team is doing this bad? I doubt it, but its pretty much impossible for us to actually know wtf is going on with this roster

2/8 with how riot uses the Logos (top text turns into blurry mess on stream)
6/8 if on merch - I miss having complex logos that you can actually print large versions on shirts (without the shirt being a "boring" shirt)

Dont end up liking their merch but I cant blame the logo for it at least

the point is we wont have redbull in EMEA this year? ye they might invite t1 teams like last year but that for sure wont be apeks

only announced offseason tourney we have in EMEA atm is another season of https://www.vlr.gg/event/1255/valorant-regional-league-france-revolution-coupe-de-france/playoffs afaik

sooooooo bout that https://twitter.com/Bo_Hoogland/status/1672915013021966338

bold of you to assume there will be offseason tournaments in EMEA

not really imo since japan already has 2 slots they're represented decently (and one of the 2 teams might be looking for new players), where as Singapore is down to a single player with Benkai leaving

I wouldnt be upset since Japan has the fanbase to make up for (in my opinion) overrepresentation, but I'd prefer to get a "new" region (so Bonkers, Bleed or Fancy)

turn on the national AC ofc

you dont wanna go to spain atm ngl

EMEA: Definitely Apeks since I wanna see Keiko in t1 and the team would fall apart if they dont make it due to like... 3-4 players being t1 ready
Apac: Gotta agree with the Bonkers pick there, I just want them to give the middle finger to Riot and their constant neglect towards OCE
NA: TGRD. M80 has been playing so well individually during the rest of the season that pretty much everyone should get picked up

oh yea ofc it is^ im just joking that the roster would preform better
but ye KC would aim to create a roster that can actually win an international which m8 just couldnt

Id assume KC snag a couple m8 players if they dont make it tbh
they also have 2 players who played in t1 in the past so if they're looking for "safe" pickups (considering the 3 t2 talent play unfortunately didn't work out for them this season) they're right there

or just take the entire roster, probably the more well rounded team

ye it should
rib has them separated, and while its still nowhere near perfect the ranking its a loooot closer to reality

Scarz wins
Nothing against Dplus, but I cant really cheer for another korean team to make it to Franchise, and just the chance for Riots least favorite region to make it with Bonkers is so worth it

prime gambit too^

looking forward to the boo and miniboo reunion next split, carrying TH to greatness

Realistically Riot will have to update the rules to make a distinction between Regions in Russia
It is unreasonable to expect someone to play with 200 ping just because they were born in the wrong part of the country, instead of getting to play on the Asian servers which are way closer to them

And while Grandfathering would work, and Riot have done so with people below the minimum age, I think that would just lead to issues further down the line

that ones on you and you should feel bad

"cringe comps" aint doing nrg any favors tbh

Id assume Riot, EMEA had (from an outside view, knowing nothing of the internal details) similar issues with their servers with Fnatic vs KOI being delayed thanks to it

well csgo's definition also requires Valve to sponsor the tournament for it to be a major so its still 0-0

There isnt any humanly noticeable delay between the AMD or Intel so this isnt expected behavior

hopefully its driver problem, so I'd suggest starting by getting all drivers from your Motherboards support page (in the early days of ryzen 5000 for example the Realtek Audio drivers were a bit wonky on MSI motherboards - however I havent heard of this being an issue in a while)
Realistically its USB related though since the 5000 series had huge issues with those on release and you might have gotten an old motherboard, I haven't gotten to test this myself due to nobody in my town buying pcs that are younger than 20 years but you can plug it into the USB slots right above the hdmi port and that should help
Unfortunately if that doesn't end up solving it you might have to update your motherboards bios, unless someone with more experience can help ya out on here ^^

That last round is actually heartbreaking - 1 round from qualifying only for it to end in a 1v1 and losing due to a missed smoke
GGs to MDR

the reverse EMEA
their first encounter was too dominant so I doubt it ended up mattering there, but if PRX make it to finals with their current form then definitely
prx was SO scary in pacific, genuine favorites for the event

the wall + team slow orb got him banned from playing sage

shao isnt even an initiator atm

The rematch buff is valid - lower bracket just op
Problem is they now have to (if nrg win) beat a lower bracket NRG late into the tourney, after just showing a huge amount of strats

yup, I just wasnt aware there was a link for it
I always assumed they had it specifically set up for media and not the "general public"
