me when Portuguese exists

is the week over yet?

damn... but still, I feel like even I could just watch vods and analyze them... you would imagine it can't be that hard, its literally their job

chichoo is the real falloff

no it doesnt ?

genuinely how hard can it be to study and copy other (non-CN) teams

yessss sleep deficit makes me play sooo much better

maybe get a sports psychologist or sum bc thats just plain stupid and will have the opposite results of what they want

blah blah blah

party pooper

oh? hes still on the vlr page

hvoya is a fraud too, considering XLG’s map vetos

luckily they gave them very long contracts so theyre stuck as subs for another year! 🥳

FUR is the only surprise

no. none of them were favorites but you have to give credit to AG as first seeds imo

is a Bangkok rematch😳😳😳

will G2 get their revenge on T1?

i’d rather give both to APAC

bc AMER (which you called NA?) is so topheavy and not competitive at all (same 3/4 teams always)

I feel like they barely tried to play with hfmi

red hood 🔥🔥🔥

riveting stuff man

I have both winning…… but I am a TL hater and a G2 believer

sure i can see that

best night of your life and its just valorant, football, and posting on vlr ☹️😢 are you ok maniel?

holy shit you cooked

but they need one that speaks mandarin, no?

honestly EDGs fault for not paying slowly’s buyout when we know they can afford it with that champs money

fucklift2

that’s what I’m saying though

it is the rest of China’s fault that EDG is able to qualify, because no one has any idea about macro in the region. thats why EDG is getting away with just shooting - that’s not EDG’s fault, theyre just not getting punished

4 baiters and Verno

HEAR ME OUT: what if you’re right?

what are the real benefits of going to the gym?

do you go to the gym to able to defend yourself? no, martial arts or self defense classes are much more effective.

do you go to the gym to be more healthy? no, there are much healthier workouts than pulling and pushing weights. doing anything outside, for example - just like humans used to do in prehistoric times.

do you go to the gym to build discipline? no, you can do that in other ways that benefit you much more, like building productive habits, job-related habits, learning-related habits, etc.

do you go to the gym to look better? yes. it’s about looking more attractive to mating partners. that’s all.
isn’t it so dystopian that so many of you are dragging around heavy objects, to build a strength you dont actually use?

do you go to the gym to build strength? yes. why? you don’t use it. unless… someone wants you to be strong. who wants you to be able to run around carrying heavy stuff? that’s right.
the recent gym culture and popularization of it - who benefits from it? the people that own you, that want you to fight their wars, while you wear heavy military gear. YOU ARE A COG IN THEIR SYSTEM. WAKE UP.

but that’s just a theory, a game theory.

but is it EDG’s fault? arent there many teams that rely on individual moments to bail them out of bad moments? i think of FNC, for one

i think China as a region should be copying foreign strategies more often - after all, we see that good strategy has more consistent success. so, in that sense, if we assume thats the case, isn’t it the rest of China’s fault for not qualifying over EDG? shouldnt good strategy mean qualifying for internationals?

also, this is a total shooter’s meta. the meta is lowkey based so much on gunplay and teamplay > macro strategy right now that it isn’t too surprising that EDG managed to sneak into another international because they have shooters (even if their teamplay is subpar)

you’re so right

yesssssss

would make sense if it was controller, since after Clove (contr), Tejo (ini), Waylay (duelist) and Veto (senti) have been released. controller should be next

aspas’ agent pool is honestly weak and dissappointing - but it doesn’t take away from the fact that he’s been Valorant’s final boss for multiple years now, for me

I don’t think babybay will wake up, thats why

and XLG have some pretty good macro ideas and great shooters, so I imagine they have a chance

other way around - XLG will 2-0 G2.
EDG 0-2 T1

Kayo is temporary, Veto’s ult lasts a whole round… and it doesnt negate abilities - you cant “waste” them while suppressed. Veto doesn’t have to turn flashes, dodge Sova ults, can defuse through mollies - that’s on a different level.

he already is, teams just havent realized it yet… do you realize you can throw cross-map lineups with his trip?

why do you think aspas is NOT the goat?

Removing the impact of abilities, removes the soul of the game. Valorant just became Counter-Strike, because of Veto.

#ReworkVeto

aspas and alfajer clear him in consistent high level performances

is it opposite day?

why would he be guaranteed to join sen, IF he comes back (he wont)? just join a better team

just make him overpowered yeah that sounds great

first of all, no one thinks forsaken is actually the goat.

secondly, the people that rate him highly rate him like that because of his performance on many different roles - not just because he plays many roles. being a jack of all trades is indeed a metric of being great at the game - you are great in more than one dimension. For example, I don’t see Mazino in the goat conversation just because he has played many different agents throughout his career

YES!!! TRUE!!!! I WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE WITH YOUR VIEWPOINT!!!

you act like you know about baiting but clearly you dont because you just got RAGEBAITED OOOHHH get rEkt 💣💣💣

AG Shr1mp reference?

goat means all time, he has so far played well for one whole kickoff

acting all confused like you arent downplaying the undeniable best player itw rn

all the first seeds must be itching for a good game right now, im hyped af

G2 will add JonahP back into the roster this season
