Looking forward to seeing him compete then.

• DRX free1ng best tejo player itw.
• VIT solid EMEA team, gets hyped up like G2 as top 2 teams, but most vlr users still doubting EDG cause they want western teams to be better narratively.

International teams > domestic americas teams

ZmjjKK had to be 1st. Record Breaking Champs MVP.

Termi great at developing players to get top 4th-6th team at champs.

zellsis

Valo champions doubters.

T1 ALWAYS have map pool issue. DRX rebuilding its roster with new players (needs time).

Best Tejo itw.

Buzz touched it too.

Only like G2 for the Fk Sentinels plane banner message thing.

C9 can do the funniest thing, screw over NRG for 4th place in Omega group. Prevent NRG from making Masters Toronto.

Lotus 2024 EDG, soo many teams copying EDG comps.

T1 players probably too tired from yesterdays game. I'd say 3-1 DRX win.

anomaly, outside the box, worst enemy to predictable basic mindset.

I like TL making it to Bangkok instead of TH. It's good to have different EMEA representation instead of FNC/TH every year. TL chaotic muddy glue valorant is the exact type of valorant to throw G2 off their game. If playing perfect textbook set play valorant is G2 strongest point, don't play to G2 winning condition and TL anomaly playstyle would be perfect to break G2 consistency and momentum.

Westerners not gonna be happy with this one.

MAJORITY OF 2021 and 2022 VCT was PAST MIDNIGHT
2023 have Tokyo
2024 have Shanghai + Seoul.
I literally haven't watch a single G2 game this year cause its was 4am.
Only watch a single VIT game so far cause every other match starts at 3am.
Got every right to be excited by the timezone. Probably gonna dozed off to a lot of Toronto matches.

Esports charts won't show it, but CN viewers gonna carry 70% of it again. Seoul was +1 hour difference, Bangkok is -1 hour difference from China time..

Best timezone tho. No midnight/morning matches.

" U wanna play for EDG in the future? U better let us win" - Muggle probably.

look at the time when you're active on VLR. During Americas matches there's gonna be many pacific/china haters in general. When you're in asia time, those people barely exist.

Derke and nAts. Happy EDG.

If boom wants to go back ascension to re-qualify, they need to finish top 8 (make stage 2 playoff).
Just gotta outplaced: GE/TS/ZETA/DFM?

There’s no way ppl still NRG pilled…
-NRG
+LOUD

u sure?

GE ball didn't even get mixed, just got plucked out.

Winner gets 3 Circuit pts
2nd place gets 2 Circuit pts

Personally I'd take the extra circuit pts and try.

I like how the draw guy didn't even mix and just pick GE straight away.

So both teams PREFER to face no1 seed from other region in masters bangkok?

Nongshim RRQ 22-20 Repeat LETSGO

T1 gonna be super tired after today's game. DRX gonna win comfortably.

never make it to playoff at masters/champs. Group stage merchant.

I wouldn't say "completely" different level, its close but not on same level.

he turn 20 in January, not 18.

Nongshim players are very solid too.

China aside, East Asia means DRX + 1 JP team. THATS IT. KR and JP scene will die No Meiy/Art/Meteor/Munchkin etc
SEA 2 slot always gonna be PRX + Crws Thai team. PH/Indo/SA scene ALL will die. No Russia import, no PH, no GE.

DRX qual to every international tournament (1KR slot). Munchkin and Meteor have to qualify in JP region CR vs Northeption. KR scene dies.

Asia gets limited slot cause JP, KR, SEA all separated due to ping (thats why partnership is good, all teams in 1 country).

2022 LCQ KR teams face JP and CN teams for 1 slot.

2021 and 2022 format open circuit, 1 measly slot at internationals. If u can't dethrone VS/DRX, no other KR teams makes internationals (Nuturn/F4Q).

Achilios says he would reveal it if someone gifted 500 subs on sliggy's chat (he wants a cut).
Achilios is the one who tells sideshow 13 hours before the T1 DRX game about Syvan getting subbed out.

Korea will only get 1 slot at internationals. Partnership allows KR teams to compete against SEA teams WITHOUT 60+ ping like 2021 LCQ.

DRX gonna placed 4th to 6th anyway. They're consistent, not overrated.

at least having TL instead of TH means having different EMEA representation going to Internationals. Also Chichoo would be happy nAts making it to International stage.

EDG can, but most people are Asian team doubters.

Termi gonna beat foxy9 again.

what's aqua doing in trace?

If both teams can win their 1st game, they can meet each other. Won't happen in opening game cause no1 seed vs no2 seed,

ffs. I wanted TL to qualify because I want to see different team represented in Internationals..... but you just can't beat RIOT script....
