damn that's tough, maybe haxtrax is just out for some time so they won't "invest" into a 6th player?

because if I'm not wrong there are multiple hungarians out there (either on hungarian teams or on international teams) to choose from

Why does GML keep playing with their coach? Match after match.

There must be a reason

this

just contract anyone with experience in coaching a decent valo team before and work from there

GM should be the one finding a proper coach, not the players

Your configuration of Group B is not possible. It is one and only one of these 2 options for spots 3 and 4:

Optic (3) Knights (4)
Knights (3) Rise (4)

how are they overrated?

yh it's weird I though CGN was a solid team

idk why shazeon isn't playing

disappointing really

no mitch = cap

people need to embrace the fact that sinatraa isn't here anymore too

luzuh is insane with jett bruh

truth is al0rante has still a lot to learn on flex agents, he is better with duelists

I think it's difficult to fit all 5 players onto a confortable position for everyone

4th tie in a row for Vita

unlucko

Nice, ty <3

I guess this is the same for every VCT?

.

Knights already qualified because they won against Rise so even if they both tie on wins/loses, Knights qualify overe Rise
Optic on the other hand lost against Rise, so if they tie on wins/loses, Rise qualify over Optic

man has been stuck in a not-good-enough team from ages now

it's not easy rating him

do you have a link to tiebreak rules?

ok

Are you crying because I'm analyzing keloqz? Lmao

Weird

?

Me bro

Viper Sova Cypher Jett Kayo

Maybe Skye instead of Kayo

I don't like chamber on this map, I think cypher brings more utility

Some things to analyze from TH during this game:

1. Keloqz: he is mental with Jett/OP, and he was a huge addition for TH, yet he still commits so many stupid mistakes he should work on, peeking when unnecessary, holding aggresive angles alone, and other mistakes that makes his team sometimes play around him in times where there shouldn't be like that.
2. Lowel is insane and controller role fits him perfectly, this team needed some coordination and I think they are finally on the right path.
3. Popi addition was so good for the team
4. Bromas makes a lot of individual/skill-wise mistakes, but at least he is somewhat useful to the team. But it looks this brings TH down a bit.
5. Mertz has so many potential and it's a great team player, but it seems he is a bit inexperienced yet, I hope this changes over time.

Dafran+scream+mixwell under Prodigy team from early days of valorant beta, man I miss watching dafran playing valorant + his dramas

I partially agree dude, they totally looked unconfortable on Icebox and their game plan was so bad, if it wasn't for yay's clutches they would've had 2 rounds at most

But still, I don't think it's a good idea playing without a Jett on Icebox. I get that Yay is cracked with OP and probably feels even better with Chamber, but any proper team comp needs a Jett on Icebox.

It's either him palying Jett and letting other player play Chamber; or him playing Chamber and another player playing Jett; or simply ditching Chamber on Icebox

they put Yay on Chamber but at what cost lmao

everyone else looked so lost, they are definitely not nerfing yay putting him on chamber, but they are nerfing themselves

That's a shit take, G2 needs team players, not flashy ones

ANYBODY ELSE SAW THAT

Its ok man hahaha thanks for the constant updates

Haxtrax honduran pride

True...

This bug shouldn't have been punishable in the first place :(

Now every competition around the globe is being fucked lol

Glad competition is being resumed

I understand postponing matches relative to Russian/Ukrainian players and orgs. But I honestly wished we would see more matches this weekends from those teams and players whose nationality is not directly involved in war. Still, it's something.

My only concern with this weekend's matches is Kiles. I think his family is in Ukraine? Might be wrong. But I hope he agreed to play.

whz reminds me of SkRossi in South Asia
He was super dominant as well in his region, but his performances nowadays are not nearly as impressive as they were before. Mainly because India/South Asia improved a lot since then.

I think whz situation in China will be similar

Each team only have 1 ban. This means G2 lose their ban pick.

NA need a T2 competition right now it seems.

A lot of teams and orgs out of the 12 VCT ones don't look very satisfied with the current competitive situation in NA

Why are they favouring Acend tho??

Just take some points from them on the standings, my god...

This kind of sanction must be a bad joke

Anotha one

I like their energy, I'll always be glad and thankful of how entertainable they make every game.
If I had to say something negative about them, I'd say that they should learn more about the deep of the game (some casters more than others). And when they try to be "clever" and try to show how much they understand about the games and matchups, some of them rely directly on attacking some players/coaches (kami cough cough). But it's ok, I hope this improves over time.

You are derailing the conversation.
OP asked, why is this player not playing Raze
and I answered
because he is a Jett one trick (AWP).

He played other offensive agents like Skye before when she was overpowered and he sucked with her. Fair and simple, any other argument is plain asslicking fanboyism. He does not know how to play Raze properly in competitive scene, because he relies way too much on his sniper skills. And that's it.

Poorly, you don't give him an agent without synergy with AWP, otherwise, he is dogshit

Because he is a Jett one trick lol

I'm surprised this is being asked

This match should be FPX ZHUQUE - Weibo instead?

ToE - Weibo has already been played before

Yes, synsi is out.

I'd be surprised they had the money to do make that movement

They keep corners uncleared match after match, no signs of learning

Abel your team is in shambles

Ah yes keepYourSkill, one of my favourite teams on the francophone scene

Abel your team is in shambles
