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....

not to take away nAts IGLing credit away but this TL lower bracket run is a 1 time fluke run. I don't mind it cause we're getting a different EMEA team in internationals, much better than same team over and over (Heretics).

I'd put NAVI in D tier, so the C tier would have a nice and clean 1 row.

Bangkok Timezone is 1 hour difference from China, esports charts won’t show it but the CN viewers will be there. As long as EDG makes a deep run in the tournament.

Indonesian pro players - Dr Zoidberg.
Wkwkwkwkwk

right, active users at this timezone are mostly anti asia teams.

Why EDG in A and not S? Cause of 1 bad game against Trace?

Vitaliry

so we're neglecting the most recent EDG beat LEV of KangKang vs Aspas??
what's the technicality/what if's/situational here, always rejecting the most up to date match up for non eastern people?

RIP SEA valorant

EWC

welcome elmapuddy

EDG

2023 Challengers League Indonesia: Split 2 Grand Final where winner qualify to Pacific ascension 2023.
Venue is in a mall and its free admission.
it's SEA and its on weekend, therefore super packed with crowd and VERY LOUD.

EDG VIT

EASILY ya?

TALON miracle run to play in front of the home crowd and win it all.

EDG Masters Shanghai...
GenG Champs Seoul...
Home crowd might be a curse tbh...

In VCT Americas maybe, EMEA small chance, Not happening in Pacific/China.

Something and JohnQT probably 2 of the best “import” playing in another region.

Korea pre partnership (21&22) only ever get 1 slot at internationals, whilst SEA occasionally gets 2 slots. If u can’t dethrone VS/DRX at the time (Nuturn/F4Q) other KR players really have no hope of making internationals to grow. The only other option was to join JP team, C9 Korea disband making NA team and Bazzi/Munchkin make internationals by joining Crazy Raccoon & Northeption Meteor.

Partnership is good for KR cause they have more opportunity to compete in international by competing straight with SEA teams in Pacific, not just with VS/DRX for measly 1 slot.

EDG. If you seen EDG latest video. Century (assistant coach) was showing his "scouting report" on EDG opponents to muggle and nobody to ensure they know each maps location and when it was released so the roster have good idea about the map to win the game. Especially Haven 26-0.

poke fun of nadeshot's comments about the VCT schedule of not playing enough games.

after their elimination, more and more people realise they're A team with comments saying rebuilding and needs time etc. People no longer fell for Classic NA overhyping teams and teams like mibr and Kru progressing. Good balance of 2 NA and 2 South Americas is good. G2 deserve to be considered good after their 2024, but NRG doesn't.

EDG 3 -2 VIT
I need to see KangKang vs Derke (his fav player)

I used to dislike Giants. 2023 Champs Rhyme was lowkey sinophobic towards EDG. It's not even banter/trashtalk, Pre match press conference, post match interview & press conference, pre game hype video and half time match content he was HATING EDG and China the entire time. Fitinho was full body shoot hating EDG players in the match and full tear crying after the EDG loss. Nukkye was being a bad sport after the match is post match conference. Those 3 gone now, so all water under the bridge.

Now NRG, They made 0 internationals in 2024, sign 2 tier 2 players and a tier 2 coaches and ppl hype this up S tier winning trophies for whatever reason. Will be enjoying their downfall and not make a single internationals again. If s0m have any ambition left in competitive valorant, he should move to another org and make internationals.

Omurice.
Rice, eggs, chicken thigh, Demi glacé sauce.

-jinggg he’s too comfortable and not ambitious at all
+udotan Korean will improve team + raid GE again like monyet.

Get assistant coach that has authoritative figure, not family member friendly type.

Can’t afford 1 valo player…. But have the money to sign 6 Pokémon unite players. Hmm.

Ya, with forsaken secondary caller. Those 2 have good chemistry from recent pacific video.

Udotan. KR and raid GE players like monyet. Perfect.

Talon has 2 KR Americans.
It’s 3v7.

EZ

was best SEA, but after their elimination and TLN advancement to Lower Round 4 Not anymore. Can't live 2 days in the past.

mostly westerners who doesn't know much about APAC. Pinoys would still support primmie cause fellow SEA.

GE not SEA, T1 not SEA, NS not SEA. TLN best SEA.
