dear god don’t bother watching TSM vs IMT, what a shitshow (coming from a TSM fan).

He offers the most hilarious commentary on this site, never fails.

“clutchler” lmao his aim is plat.

I love Drone, I think he is the most consistent player on the team regardless of agent. His phoenix was top-3 at one point. It dropped off against better teams recently, though. Could be an IGL problem though.

They still can't win a pistol round. It's laughable at this point. You have to be right about coaching and IGL. Also, they're so dependent on momentum. After 5-1 starts, it felt like they didn't have a chance. They even started 5-0 against LG, but once they started losing rounds they "gave up," seemingly.

this current roster isn't going anywhere against those teams. we can't even beat 100T or LG. TSM needs to experiment with new players, even if it takes them a while to find players that improve the team.

see, drone wasn't working as duelist, either. he needs to stay on sova (INCREDIBLE sova fwiw), and the team needs to find another duelist. subroza wasn't working on omen, either. he still had consistency problems. his drop is probably coming.

Maybe a better IGL would fix the problem, but I doubt it. I'd be fine if they cut him now or if he got another chance. If they make changes fast enough, TSM could sneak in by qualifying in Challengers 3.

Exactly I wanna see him play valorant that's why I follow him. He rarely has any YouTube content anymore either since he doesn't play the game.

Kind of like a star QB who quits on his team when they underperform.

our teams are down bad

he was my favorite streamer, but i'm not gonna watch his dumbass workout or stream Tarkov. his aim was shit today. he refused to use dash to escape his missed shots. one time he got tagged by a drone and tried to bunny hop across an open site to safety instead of dashing.

Wardell doesn't give a fuck about Valorant anymore, it's an annoying look for sure.

Jesus Fucking Christ what an embarrassment. We have to drop both Cutler and Hazed, replace them with an actual IGL who plays smokes. Then we have to cut Subroza and get another duelist, I've had it with him and his inconsistency.

cocky little shits just got owned lmao

Yeah that’s the safe bet. The bracket had me fucked up because TSM vs IMT was down with the April 4th games lol. Could just be my phone. The website kept changing the time zones, too.

So, the schedule said 8:30 April 4th yesterday, and now it says April 3rd (tonight). Can we get a confirmation?

I learned this earlier. Look at the bracket on VLR’s event page. The games that are streamed have a camera icon at the bottom right. By memory, I know Sentinels, FaZe, Luminosity, along with some other bigger names. Probably the top teams from Masters.

I’ve never seen TSM stream scrims before.

That makes sense. I guess it comes down to the cost of casters vs the audience size smaller games would bring in.

Thank you

I know that there aren’t enough streams to show all 64 games in this round, but I think they should stream as many as possible (for example, nerdstgamers has A, B, C, etc channels). This may have been covered already, but when will we know which, if any, of the games are being streamed? Specifically looking for TSM. Thanks.

Oh, he definitely has an impact, just a negative one.

I feel like everyone is really rude to me on this website and people never tried to understand my opinion

Ah, so they get good seeding for Chal 2 finals, and Chal 2 finals is the first possibility to qualify for Masters. Thank you.

So, each Masters event was divided by region in Stage 1. I saw that Stage 2 Masters will be an international LAN in Iceland. Will there still be regional Masters to determine who goes to Iceland Masters?

i bought three flashes first round and blinded each one of my opponents before killing them with four body shots each after that i used the marshaall every round because it’s basically a senior citizen discount op but i guess i suck with it because all i did was ult my teammates for the rest of the match.

is taht god?

Challengers has always confused me. What is the reward for reaching the top 8? Is there a Challengers 1 Finals? I think that’s how it worked last time, but none of the teams guaranteed a trip to Masters from Challengers 1. Correct me if wrong.

i fuck bitches while soft

23 kills in 20 rounds is good for a support player. Not great, but good.

You crack me up so much, reading your comments is a joy!

I’m not sure you can look at FaZe and TSM the same way. FaZe has been on the come up and peaked recently. TSM peaked almost a year ago and has gone downhill every since. TSM needs change to improve, whether it’s IGL duty or actual players. IMO. Brax may be enough, we’ll see. They have to be able to beat 100T, their Achilles heel.

lol

I’ve seen him play Reyna and that’s about it. Maybe some Phoenix if my memory serves me correctly. If that solves his consistency issues, I’m all for it. Cutler should have been testing him out on duelists for a while now. That’s the main problem.

EDIT: It’s been 3+ months since he’s played a duelist. He had a 1.21 KD on Reyna and a 1.05 KD on Phoenix. He’s played more Phoenix (870 rounds) than Reyna (214). My bad.

I’d like to see these roster changes.

Wardell - Jett
Free agent - Second duelist
Drone - Initiators
Hazed - Smokes
Brax - Sentinels

They would still lack a solid IGL. I think Hazed used to IGL, but if Cutler replaced him as IGL, I doubt Hazed has a future in that role. Maybe Brax or Drone could IGL. Try something different.

Wardell used to be a game changer. He was my favorite player and the first Valorant streamer I watched. I’m not sure if he lost his passion for the game (“too much Tarkov”), or if the competition caught up. Either way, he can’t carry hard enough, and I feel like he’s the last alive too often. (EDIT: And he has zero agent flexibility)

Subroza is so damn inconsistent. That’s really all you can say. I guess that’s why they keep him on smokes instead of duelists.

Drone has been down bad recently. Not sure why. He used to be a top-3 phoenix NA.

Hazed got moved from smokes to sentinels. Not fair to him, but he’s decent.

Cutler is just deadweight. Sorry “Clutchler,” but I don’t see how you deserve that nickname, or a spot on the team. If he was a good IGL, I could forgive his consistent bottom fragging. Obviously, he isn’t, or TSM would be a top-8 team.

Somewhat relevant, but my NA dream team would be:

SEN TenZ
SEN SicK
SEN Shahzam
100T nitr0
LG aproto

Since Sentinels is easily the best team NA, keep most of them together for chemistry. You wouldn’t have to replace dapr, but I feel like there are better cypher players, at least aim-wise. Aproto has been down bad recently in pro play, so maybe brax (hot take?) could take the sentinel role. With all respect, zombs is the weakest link on Sentinels. A better smokes player obviously isn’t necessary since they won Masters, but I would upgrade if building a super team. If Subroza was consistent, I’d say put him on smokes because his aim is nasty.

Brush from FN is pretty good, he was top 10 rank at some point. Probably not good enough for the list though.

Finally got around to watching, good laughs and incredible voice.

facts bro

Give Brimstone six smokes, three MOLLYs, and replace his stim beacons with Breach flashes. Make everything cost 50, and then make his ult twice the diameter for only four ult orbs.

I heard a lot of people saying that would be impossible. Hopefully they drop Cutler and not hazed. I don’t care who IGLs, figure that out later, just get rid of Cutler. That’s all.

“There aren’t many cheaters” is something a cheater would say. There’s another stereotype for this debate.

reply fail

Ooooh playing with a teacher, kinky

Wow, I’m sure nobody has asked this one before. What’s the most kills you’ve had in a game? Go ahead, brag. I like hearing about this type of shit.

My max is only 31 in competitive (my actual elo) and 32 in unrated. I’m not good enough to smurf all that hard, but if you had an insane smurf game you can talk about that, too. I’ve had friends drop 40 bombs and one drop 50, but 30 is about my max.

I was playing with a friend in silver competitive, and the enemy Jett dropped 48 kills in regulation. I’ve only seen that many kills when Wardell was playing his first unrated game on smurf accounts. Silver players aren’t insane, but at least they have more game sense than brand new players. The team was 5-stacked, and the other 4 were shit, so the Jett was clearly boosting. Whether through hacks or smurfing, idk, but she was fishy.

I’ve noticed most of VLR takes the “not many cheaters” stance. If you look at Reddit, most people take the “quite a few cheaters, most not blatant” stance. Interesting debate for sure.

I only watch Hiko when 100T plays TSM, so to me Hiko plays like a fucking god. Fuck that guy lol. Fanboy speak only ofc.

fun fact: ethos went 3-16 when he played one game as Yoru in pro play lol.

WHERE IS BREACH AND BRIMSTONE???? YOU GOT SOMETHING AGAINST THICC WHITE MEN?????

lol jk only

Is that for his IGL abilities? I typically see Steel bottom fragging, but maybe I’m missing something.

Does aproto IGL? aproto is something special. I remember watching him drop 36 kills, including an overtime ace, against SSG on Bind (I forget which tournament). He’s been in a slump recently.

EDIT: 38 kills (cypher btw), and it was during First Strike.
