I'd insult your fave team, but I don't recognize that logo, haven't seen that team play anywhere b4

lil bro out here counting 6th places.... XD

NA is mainly 1 team region but Optic finished top 3 several times this year, EU had 1 top3 run only

If I don't honor my name then who am I really?

didn't you finish second in the group? great achievement being ever so slightly better than NA's 2nd best team

Maybe franchising will save your region and you can return to international event to get 2-0'd by XSET again :)

Let's just admit it: EU is a fluke region

They always get the most seeds, yet outside of FPX run at Masters 2 their top finish this year is 4th place.

NA, BR, KR, JP, APAC have all finished better than 4th place this year.

oh they backed up all right... backed all the way up to second place in their group and a 4th place exit (I thought 4th was reserved for TL?)

doesn't matter they all lost to DRX and they all missed top 3, enjoy the offseason :), hopefully next year EU teams can actually have more than 1 semi competitive team

Lets all just agree:
NA = BR = KR >>>>> EU

they're mourning another EU loss, but really they should change it to EE for Early Exit

congrats DRX on the win wish for good semifinal game

inb4 EU fanboys claim "fluke" "tired from XSET rigged replay" or some other lame excuse that they always come up with bc they can't admit they are a T2 region with 1 good team

RIP BOZO

keep crying all the way to 4th place

okay then be mad at Riot?

not XSET who didn't even ask for the replay

Regardless of whether or not you think the replay was called for -- series was extremely close and FPX talking like sore winners blaming XSET instead of Riot.

DRX 2-0 Feeling Pissy Xpros

This is great news for NA, thank you Shao_show, you are now officially an NA supporter <3

LEV and Optic fluked too. Real finals should be EDG vs Xerxia, but flukes took that from us

XSET beat FPX, they definitely stand a solid chance against FNC

I know we have had our differences in the past and were once enemies, but now it's time to band together...

XSET will avenge you, fallen soldiers. XSET 2-0 FNC.

1. LEV
2. Optic
3. XSET
4. DRX
   4.5. TL

100T owns you, won't even get a map this time

Least upfragged user in history wdym

How did you see the future?

We been out here, was tough after last Masters, but feels good right now, ngl!

XSET literally just beat FPX or did I imagine that?

Really it should be:

LEV
XSET
OPTIC
DRX

but then you are just naming the 1st seed teams which is lazy

Where did all the XSET haters go? XSET>>>>

Funny because nobody was saying this about XSET in masters when they lost to LEV

XSET! I think they will thrive post bootcamp and starting in group play rather than bracket play.

Also hyped for Leviatan, I think they can make a run and they were very enjoyable to watch at Masters

Finally someone with some brains. XSET didn't finish 1st at NA tourney by luck, very skilled team that just wasn't ready for international yet. With bootcamp and time they will roll these EU teams that everybody forgets were literally all finishing outside of top 4 just 2 tournaments ago.

I would say something snarky in response, but I just want to issue you my apologies for V1 missing out on LCQ.
Maybe you should stop talking crap from all the way down in T2

I want to see 3 OT maps and the third map better be at least 40 rounds

Did you know that EMEA teams have never even won a map against Faze?

Bro Optic won last Master's, we are already into the final 4 teams for this Master's please get over it already

I think its likely they say no, but its not confirmed either way yet -- it's still a maybe, also depends on the quality of the finalists for NA spots

G2 may be in NA

Next time you come for my squad you best not miss

XSET beat Optic (Current Master's Champions) 3-1, name another NA team that can do that....

This is a horrible take...
LOUD, Zeta, and Xerxia already qualified too and did worse at the tournament
Plus, NA still has LCQ for any greatly improved teams to still make it in

2-1 Optic and PRX will clean out whichever EU team beats the other.

Even if PRX beats Optic we are still seeing a PRX Optic Rematch in the finals

They don't have to bc EU can't make it to the Upper Bracket XD

My point is why does your team have to be out to enjoy...
Can't fans of the teams in enjoy the games too?

I don't get why people would rather be upset than enjoy the matches?
Not like any of you would play better so why hate when you could enjoy the close matches (FNC vs. LEV) and be impressed by the not so close ones (FPX vs. DRX)
Only 1 team can win the tournament, everyone else will lose somewhere, that doesn't make all of them trash, each player on each of these teams would 1v5 you and your 5 stack of goober friends

XSET giga dropped out of the tourney, but I still enjoyed watching them play their 1 international match, so I know it's possible

I think they should all get a bye, but then they should all play one round robin to determine seeding 1-4. Then 1st place gets to pick their opponent then second then etc....

It would add more international games, plus make the group play in seeding more important and the playoff seeding less random

If XSET is bad
then Sentinels worse
SENzombs is mad
that SEN is cursed

shut the h*ck up
watch XSET play
never give up
and root for NA

yeah, they made them all play their own region so it's guaranteed to be like that even if some regions are better than others...
doesn't make it a good bracket

It's incoming upper bracket matchup dw

buzz lightyear movie

The worst part is that it's this bad almost every single time and Riot never does anything about it.
Wish I had the job stability of the Valorant Competitive Format team, if I screwed something up this many times in a row I'd have been canned 2 tournaments ago...
