we've been holding off on the hopium for too long and now we all ODed
boom should go into this event with absolutely no care in the world and zero expectations to be good, the joyous whimsy buff will carry them to wins
Group A and B are more of a group of death than D, Group C is a group of marshmallows tho
EDG literally pulled the worst group for themselves, PRX are more than willing to play aggressive, Scream, Jammpi and Nivera are cracked asf and can keep up aimwise with EDG, and LEV are also very aim heavy
Asuna=Alfajer
Will<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<Derke
Bang>>Boaster (in terms of controller play)
Stellar=Mistic (in terms of role)
Stellar<<Boaster (igling)
Derrek>>Enzo
how tf are you putting EDG in t1 when they played in the easiest LCQ region
if optic lose to boom marved is gonna get investigated for matchfixing again
unrelated, but I think this is the best year for 100T esports, they won COD Champs, they are in valorant Champs, they are currently 2 wins away from qualifying to worlds in league, and their Apex team got 3rd in ALGS
bro is predicting the times too lmaoo
the DRX part was just giving my reasoning for why 100T would go 2-0 in groups, I know that all of vlr thinks DRX sucks ass lol
wow they're going to send all of them home? incredible BR truly #1 region
the drop off between Derke playing chamber and him playing raze in masters was pretty big, but I will admit that I misworded it a bit by saying "hit hard", it may not be so bad bc the main part of his kit isn't torn apart.
I said hot takes not right opinions
send your hot takes for who's making it out of groups or what's going to happen in the tournament
imo, 100T are making it out of group D 2-0
Derke might get hit hard by the chamber nerfs and their performance in Copenhagen did not impress me very much considering the hype surrounding them
I lost all hope in DRX being good at the game after they went out in 5-6th for what feels like the millionth time
Fr TSM bang was a much rawer talent than rn
does this even count as a C9B match if the only person left is mitch
Dawg find better bait than “crosshair placement abuser”
Riot was just really paranoid about Covid, no other organizer (or at least major esport organizar) I know kept it crowdless for as long as Val was
Riot infrastructure in place in Korea
Who asked
I don't think riot actually play their game considering they are making it possible for a player to play 10 matches in one day
C9 also had him playing with T2/3 players
I personally think they could use some more help with sentinel play, so a player like dapr would work nice on that team
no matter how clouted SEN and 100T are I doubt they crack top 3 most watched games ever in a lower round 2 of a regional tournament
imagine if T1 and C9 just stayed in Korea, how much more balanced the region would be
try dropping 40 per game, that will solve ur problem
Oh, the flags are fucking me up lol
after Kone beat DWG, I am fully on the CN hopium train, EDG 2022 champions
no matter the outcome, we all know who really wins here, riot's viewership statistics
SAO S1 isn't bad, and Alicization/War of the Underworld is pretty good, everything else is mid asf and this is coming from someone who owns all the SAO novels
G2 is like a combination of SEN and T1, they leak godly players the same way T1 does and they have the same early game success and modern day mediocrity that SEN has (or had before LCQ)
is T1 even allowed to still play in NA with this roster with 3 koreans?
at least G2 qualified for LANs in the past, T1 always has been dogshit lmfaoo
I thought riot would want to get at least one of those teams in early
Surprised not to see KOI KC or VIT in EMEA considering how big their fan bases are

TenZ - 60.4% winrate (MVP of 15% of the matches)
can you take your time to appreciate how insane mwzera is? without a doubt the most talented player to ever touch the game
I'll try to explain briefly why I think he is the best player in the world
Despite his insane aim and movement
The best way to know if a player is a good duelist is RAZE. There is a BIG difference between a good duelist and a jett abuser
If he is a good duelist, he needs to be good with raze.
heat? not good with raze
aspas? not good with raze
xand? not good with raze
tenz? not good with raze
cned? not good with raze
scream? not good with raze
d3ffo? not good with raze
derke? not good with raze
Thats why I think he is undoubtely the best player in the world. If RIOT by any means decides to nerf jett and shift the meta we prolly not gonna even hear names like cned and tenz again :>
He is not killing 40+ per map because when he joined VK he was forced to play a different role because heat is already a main jett... and lets be honest, every single duelist nowadays gets 20+ kills per map because team and setups are basically built around you (even steel managed to get 20 kills with it https://www.vlr.gg/29398/sentinels-vs-100-thieves-champions-tour-north-america-stage-3-challengers-playoffs-gf/?game=46692&tab=overview)
ez for DWG 2-0
I think they should consider making the slow radius on an ult kill smaller, it makes it so that it's still stopping a push especially in a tighter chokepoint, but it doesn't completely stall a push in the larger chokes like B main on icebox
APAC, NA and EMEA have the same amount of slots and EMEA has a far larger population and NA has a far larger fanbase
NA vs EU was carried by other games, the most organic rivalry in val is LATAM vs BR bc they actually play each other often
they combined BR and LATAM, it gives the same amount of slots if they just separated them
not all the best NA casters did weekend 1, prolly gonna get them for week 2 tho
