Sad we didn't get a 2nd GC player to enter VCL NA but gz to Bob making it on the new role

I am not surprised, this ciclejerk is super common when it comes to GC. It is never worth entertaining these conversations as most of them end up looking like insane ramblings.

Then why are you outranked by GC players? Surely all you need is reaction time?

Her taking 22 off of them is already crazy, I would be super proud if I could take 22 kills off of proplayers on 3 maps regardless of the setup considering these people depend on doing well

Here's my reasoning, I've been watching GC regionals and GCC for the past 2 or so years.

Spoilered is just how I feel about level of play, competitiveness and casting for context

Why I watch;

• waiting for "the one" - there will be a team good enough to make it through GC into VCL, which would be groundbreaking
• young GC talent - there's less stigma about women playing shooter games now and the 16yos (GC age req.) will start coming into the bracket, they can grow and get better (Flor, rezq as example), I love a good story arc
• support for the players / orgs - I just like the players, some are just house names from other games (mimi as an example, only woman to get close to getting into FPL)
• it's scrappy - sounds silly but I don't mind the fact it's not everyone shooting heads at all times with 13 rounds of utility planned ahead

Probably correct. I don't see a different way of placing these teams and I've watched all of these besides CN (only watched GF).

Don't understand why does this get brought up so much, if they were capable - they would. There really isn't much more to it.

No, YFP needs to beat both FLYQ and SR to make it happen, and if FLYQ loses here, as long as YFP doesn't beat SR they are through.

They qualified by beating YFP X so I think its reasonable to save strats for GCC

1. stick to 1-3 simple champions that allow you to focus on the game
2. stick to preferably one role
3. watch how people play, they do things you probably don't - try to find those, and ask questions if you aren't sure why do they do that
4. try not to autopilot

The thing is, Riot can't do much to hunt them for their past, HOWEVER they can react to the present. If people do claim to be non-binary exclusively to farm GC, eventually someone will rat them out or they will rat themselves out.

There's a saying here "Lies have short legs" and if srN is actually there with malicious intent, all you have to do it sit and wait to see it proven. After all, keenc also claimed non-binary then got exposed for faking it and receipts of girls being harassed came out.

Claiming you are trans is a bit harder as Riot has some strict rules with that and they require actual documents to back this up. Not sure if same aplies for NB.

I feel like the "likes" on other platforms don't show dislikes anymore meanwhile an open forum like this will show u the frag/downfrag ratio. Also the fact this is a forum will bring in people with different views on topics without special highlight on the more liked/fragged comments, so it makes sense.

This is an offseason tournament, Spotlight Series 2024 where VCT VCL and GC players all play in different sorts of rosters. Only requirement for the teams participating is to have minimum of 2 GC players on the team.

Thanks, the links give good context for me

Thank you!

Why is srN hated on? I've tried translating some comments but that hasn't given me the full picture. Can someone familiar with the situation explain more? Thanks

I genuinely don't see a world where G2 loses this, jawg + vania was a combo I could only dream of before.

Alkyia dialed the hell in game 2

Both of their bios have rings on twitter, so I assumed they're married

playing with his wife obviously

edit: wait wtf she's not even playing this one i thought she would be oops, but ye Liza and Zyp are married I think

Valiant 2-0

Because of TL BR having games during that period, they would either miss GCC or they miss this tournament and they will obviously miss this.

They did, but this is a different tournament, this one is directly endorsed by Riot

Riot announced mixed gender tournaments for offseason like a while ago and this is one of them

The two players they went for are mimi and Vania because one will bring viewers and the other will bring best firepower you can get in EMEA GC

Sarah is a great personality and also really good on controller but she was forced on duelist and did really subpar in comparision to other GC EMEA duelists.

Since you didn't get an actual answer;

GC teams can play in both GC and VCL. G2 Gozen got into the relegation / delegation through the Premier bracket, but lost 2-1 to Xperion NXT. They will continue trying for VCL and they are currently 6-0 in Premier.

Idk why RBHG from last year is being brought up as glance, sarah and roxi simply do not compare to vania, rezq and amy, not even a tiny bit LOL.

Nah, NASR is a stretch. They lack the firepower to beat G2G. Looxie does put on a good show though.

Such a weird thing to say.

Congrats to Trace for qualifying to GCC!

EDIT: 💀💀💀 Damn 7er I was not familiar with your game, congrats ALG

There's so many other things that could've made them infinite money but they decided to commit to a huge mistake instead of just cutting their losses. Sunken cost fallacy must be hitting pretty hard when you're already 200 million dollars down.

One from this match, 2 from overall standings from EMEA GC series 1, 2 and 3

Congratulations Xipto on your GCC qualification!

both obviously

Pristine level of bait, 6/8

I would be surprised if this is close, at this moment you probably can't make a better EMEA GC team, should be a clean 3-0 for G2 if everyone has no health issues

In Valorant no, in Overwatch yes

meL is just simply mechanically not there, not particularly sure about igling either as FLYQ displayed a better macro show with theia

I mean, there is a reason 3/5 of that roster is gone.

I genuinely might be reaching, but I think it's the fact they're allowed to play maps that use same agents. Also I feel like the level between 2nd-8th place in GC EMEA is closing rapidly, can't put my finger on it though.

It's kinda insane how there's rarely ever a grounded take around this.Top 4-5 GC teams have just barely started making any sort of moves in VCL qualifiers (looking at TL BR, MIBR, G2G). Until a GC team makes it in VCL, there shouldn't be a T1 debate. And if a GC player stands out in T2, only then should it begin.

And if a GC player thinks they can do better outside of GC, they should take the risk and leave the sphere. Being in a "power of friendship" team only gets u so far outside of GC.

Heroic can be as good as they want, the other side has the highest rated and 2nd highest rated player of this GC EMEA stage on the same team. Fluxxy is really good but Vania is just better.

You think there's duelists in GC able go toe to toe with flor? I'm really curious who are you thinking of on this

She is, vlr is just outdated and haven't changed starting roster for FLCV

nice cook

Maybe an oddball but Amélie.

Watched it because "haha funny fitgirl spoon image" and then it just ended up leaving me as a mess, especially because of the last 10 minutes of the film.

I rarely watch movies and it's hard to get me to do so, but doing this on a whim might've been the best thing I've done in the past 7-8 years. 100% not a film for everyone because of how it's made but personally it was a once in a lifetime experience and I am so glad I ended up watching it.

I feel like that's a given. No other EMEA team looked remotely as consistent this split. I think we should start looking forward their VCL relegation / delegation because according to Riot's most recent GC changes they are qualified for their VCL qualifier since they qualified for GCC. Last time they displayed an okayish performance, but I think they're looking more like a team now and hopefully the results also follow.

Don't know about Hasan's content as I don't watch him so I can't confirm or deny that, however in the early early days of Valorant and when Lothar was still on Hearthstone he wasn't remotely this annoying as he is now.

Unfortunately Denuvo exists on a lot of their newer stuff :(

He's noticed his career isn't going anywhere so all he started doing is attention / ragebaiting. I don't understand what is his core audience and I hope to never meet a member of it.
