No region would need to get a +1 slot if they just give 3 to each region and have a 12 team tourney
IDK about y'all but I like the idea behind this format. The kick-off tourney+Masters Madrid will be a fast and exciting start to the season, and getting rid of LCQ and using championship points to qualify for champions makes it so that teams who were consistently great don't get fucked over by a team on a random hot streak, it rewards consistency. The 2 splits + Masters Shanghai seems like a very dense block of the schedule, but the relatively few international tournaments is a good thing, it allows the matchups that rarely happen to be even more hyped. If we saw FNC vs Loud every week we'd get sick of it, but bc it only happens like twice every few months everyone gets excited.
holy shit that sounds absolutely awful
None of us are experts on T2 valorant so we wouldn't know, but the ppl who's job it is to find these talents probably have lists of potential stars they could pick up. I would think that with the new player academy/loan system, teams would be more willing to pick up young stars as their bench players and loan then out to challengers teams and if the develop either flip for a profit or put on the main roster.
It's also pretty hard for young talents to break into the scene in a partnership system, with less teams means a denser talent pool and less chances for unproven talent.
Mbappe is not going to Madrid bro
Deadlock is shit, no reason to run her when KJ does her job and more
bro just called the entire scene fraudulent
Anyone got some shit habits they do in game.
I quickswitch constantly and it gets me killed so much
Americans, how tf are we even suggesting any city other than Detroit
BBL's only good map is Ascent, but if a team plays them on that map its fucking over they are absolutely incredible at it
streets saying he's retiring completely, after his military service he's going to university
British casters just sound amazing idk why
bro tried to sneak TenZ in there
it's not rlly an all star team, all star teams are based more on player popularity bc of the way voting works. All-pro teams are more objective based on the skill of a player from the perspective of their peers, who are tbh more reliable than us at judging players
fr those mfs were like 4th best in their subregion
they are cooking some crazy ass shit right now I know it
public schools have standardized testing but they don't really mean shit for our post-grad life, its mostly for the government to know what schools are shit and who gets more funding
Full Sense has to be the most random team to make an international appearance, at least the shit teams like Crazy Raccoons and Vikings have some T1 players still but who tf is still good from FS
Russia is shitting on everyone else
Kanye is a musical genius, dude has been innovating since 2004 it's incredible.
the brits made it popular in their colonies.
I think they have to do something to allow her to actually control space, bc as she is now her role is incredibly niche, she is so good at stopping fast rushes at her site but if a team defaults or contacts through space, then she is basically useless. Lurkers have free reign all over the map with her playing, so I think a buff for her has to be making her proximity detect people in the space. Maybe make it so if the mine sees someone it pings and then if noise is made it does the stun. This makes her better on attack as she can now watch flanks, and on defense she is slightly more viable as solo sentinel since she can passively hold space
if it was going to happen I thought it would be in the group stage, no way it happens now
an intelligent player has played a game for a shit ton of time and understands a lot about the macro and micro game
make him a f0rsaken superflex type of player maybe? We've seen him excel on controller already, and with jett fading out of the meta slightly, then his role could expand further to allow for more comps to be played
is this game even old enough to have players that started competing from valorant
the best GC teams aren't even close to the level to compete at the T2 level. At best, teams like V1 and G2G are mid T3 or borderline T2, and would get completely destroyed by actual rostered T2 teams. V1 were getting beat by T3 F/A teams in some NSG open a couple of weeks ago. Having them play against competition that is so far above them won't really help them improve, having them play against teams at their same level or lightly above or below their level will allow for much more effective and reliable improvement from the scene
Are these TL trophies in the room with us now?
they need an NA/EU coach to get them right on their mid-rounding/improvisation, a lot of their set ups are built on very set strategies and aren't very flexible, and if they get stuffed on the hit a lot of times it looks like they have no idea what to do next.
FNC is the only team that I respect from EMEA, the rest of the teams in the region are clownfests (ngl my own team is a clownfest but at least we didn't qualify to an international)
are there even any possible roster moves that are an improvement? Not exactly an expert but the KR seen has always been a very weak region and it doesn't feel like that hasn't changed since then. The only plausible fix I can think of is a coaching change bc Termi is not a good coach
is there even enough KR talent that's good enough to replace anybody on this roster? Dplus is basically just old DWG who DRX always shit on, I think the T1 roster is a long term investment, and in the KR VCL Dplus had like no comp. Unless they find a Korean speaking foreign player or go for an international roster it seems like this is the roster they have to stick with
they are the international gatekeeper team, they always are on the cusp of being great but never are there. They beat the teams they should beat but never pull off insane upsets.
considering this is their first year of official comp its impressive
If she has the aspirations she could def make it in at minimum T2 but idk if the pay cut is worth it for her
I legitimately think that they just got some random dude off the street to coach this team today bc what was that map ban and where are the timeouts
Bro seriously thought an NA crowd wouldn’t chant USA
What role does Demon1 even play anymore, is he a flex now bc he plays jett and smokes?
beating BLG is literally nothing, NaVi is a fraudulent ass team and Loud started slow, DRX WILL lose this game 2-0
vlr fans care a lot more about regions than the normal fan in the arena, they are more likely to be fans of a specific team or group of teams while we care way more about how regions perform as a whole
