after they compete their first match, hopefully we get one
*TenZ and friend vs Hoodie Org
IDK, hopefully a singaporean user can answer it
Jinggg goes Military service next year, he can stay as a player till jinggg comes back.
Pacific, cause I want to see ZETA in champs.
no ZETA?
does champions have group seedings? cause if EDG got grouped up with FNC and PRX in champs, thats rough.
2021/22 China only had 1 chance to qualify for international event in entire 2 years (play vs PRX and TL champions with 0 international experience).
Lock in BO1 close game vs 100T, no lower bracket.
Thats 3 international matches in 2.5 years only...
1st proper international match with experience whilst game still on closed beta in the country (5th/6th place).
Bright future ahead.
Leo Faria said next year tier 2 scene will be managed more heavily. I feel like this reasoning is because they want to treat ALL tier 2 scene the same way, in terms of slot distribution and for better continental teams Ascension play (LAN visa between countries). He did say for some countries to fly to America, could take 6 months of visa application to play in tournament, so long term fixture planning is needed for countries who have VISA problems.

I know chinese sites doesn't provide real viewership numbers, but popularity value on new upcoming region/market/scene pre good:
8.5 million + on bilibili
6.7 million + on huya
5 million + on douyu
Might get Masters Shanghai too if numbers keeps growing and if China franchise opened.
less gekko map for CGRS, but yer also valid point
FNC already beat PRX on bind, can be a possibility, but I see FNC wanting to play Haven goes of PRX perma ban. I remember f0rsakeN goes full mental on the team about losing on Haven vs DRX on their vlog saying stuff like "who cares we lost haven, they play this map for like 6months etc"
#45 mention it was 2mil, my point it's 4x BIGGER than that.
If Fnatic vs Paper Rex
FNC Bans Pearl
FNC Bans Bind (PRX fav map + Gekko map for CGRS)
FNC Picks Haven (PRX Perma ban)
not 2million, 8.5 million
HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂HAHAHAHAHA 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
cool, change ur SEN flair to an APAC team then
NRG just got farmed bro. What's ur excuse this time?
I'd rather see NAVi & KC
True, if NA won their ego arrogance r through the roof. As a pacific, I'd rather see EMEA won instead of NA.
Liquid but with enghhh assistant coach
PRX managed to get 5 with a SUB, whats ur excuse NA?
With their loss, EDward Gaming will be sent to the Chinese qualifier for Champions
so Chinese masters team not auto qualify to champs? Damn
TL 2 - 1 NRG
EDG 2 - 0 PRX
org owners aren’t investing enough in coach/support staff for players
what do they have to do? invest $50m like bleed? The "standout" players just got averaged out by the competition thats all.
Something didn't join pacific league since the beginning, so he was late in the whole getting VISA process. Also apparently Leo Faria says to get VISA for LA u need 6 months in advance. Considering Russia situation rn, hope they don't take longer
Fine...I'll elaborate further
I don't watch Americas cause 4am, knowledgeable enough on full EMEA teams sentinels, only Pacific Sentinels. d4v41/ k1Ng/Munchkin and certainly not f0rsakeN KJ are comparable. Buzz's duelist fragging power on KJ are on 'somewhat be comparable' because he has better rating/ k:d on his KJ than his jett/duelist role. I draw comparison Buzz/Alfajer because they're both somewhat more successful playing on Sentinel/KJ compare to their duellist based on their converted role.
I interpreted OP "You can't compare alfajer with any other sentinel" from the past duelist -> Sentinel success role change/convert. They both frag as sentinel player. I also do mention ^ aim power not same as Alfa is wayy better. See more resemblance now? Feel free to drop ur compare alfajer with ur Americas/EMEA sentinel so I have better understanding from your "no chance" statement.
CR Ras/Mondo/Selly can play Valo really well.
When Valo first come out Ras was amazing at Jett, Mondo can OP (from CR cup), and selly wingman/sheriff shots r great. Oh right JP not Korean
vici needs to be on franchise team
Masters Shanghai 2024, to commemorate the emergence of China franchise.
agree, taking away CS viewers from EMEA, mobile game viewers from SEA, MOBA games from East Asia r the goal. God knows what OCE plays.
very cultured, someone else does remember the OG International East Asia turney of old T1 Korea/VS/RNG days.
In terms of Duelist/KJ role, he can be somewhat comparable, obviously aim power not same Alfa is wayy better, but buzz can frag on KJ.
watch Pacific this year, Achilios been saying SugarZ3ro IGL in pacific league, SugarZ3ro sit middle seat in turney. SugarZ3ro said in ZETA vlog while squatting (Yes this is how I remember the exact moment in vlog) "IGL is tough" while talking to XQQ.
(A lot of ZETA vlogs have eng subs, u can watch them as english speaking viewer)
was last year, SugarZ3ro been the IGL for the pacific season this year.
