PICKEMS SAVED SO EASY

too easy

Legit even last time legit every single top 3 team came from swiss stage like i swear its a debuff to go straight into playoffs

To be fair even before the tejo meta they looked like a top 4 team itw

I mean individually verno was the best player on mibr this event and trent so far is 2nd just behind jawgemo.

Calling the team tejo merchants is probably a better description

leaf had a stinker ngl, he threw so many rounds

0/8 obvious bait

brother what???? I don't know what timezone you are in but it was exactly the same as the previous mathes which for me was 2am and 5am. Both games wont be played at 12pm, wtf r u talking about

Brother they aren't wrong?? Lower round 1 is always before upper semifinals, look at all the past internationals and on vlr and liquidpedia it says lower round 1 is first?

Where does it say that upper semifinals is first?

I would say geng are favoured but I gotta remind myself that people in MEMEA are gambling addicts grasping onto false hope which is inflating the odds

u mean when he doesnt play fade???

he was not clear at all if thats what he meant

2nd highest was not 85. im pretty sure it was 101 by zekken during GF in madrid.

take ur meds

bye bye g2

no tejo = no win

u gotta copy ur pickem url not the page url btw

bc u got 2 players who only really go duelist

DIEM come back bro edg won

bye bye emea

MEMEA

50% of people still thought heretics were better coming into this eevent lol

ngl bro EMEA has been worse this event

a popular site in 2018 used to have live viewership and decided to adopt a heat system instead so I doubt it has to do with chinese law.

It seems like the chinese sites use this popularity index or heat system so they can manipulate the numbers and inflate certain statistics.

But heat system is also pretty good for avoiding fake numbers as sometimes there are lots of bots but heat system is based off live viewership + stream donations and chatting and other activities that show "engagement".

u joined in late april and u already got 1k wtf. yeah thats bad brother

I saw it and put 2 and 2 togeether but it just makes it unnecessarily confusing and I've never seen a million be represented like that before.

is it some japanese thing?

thats the "activity score" I dont really know how it works or what a value like 90k means but its not the actual live viewership (look it up on google if u dont believe me)

"the numnber" what number are you talking about, I'm talking about likes since its the closest we can see to real viewers since bilibili and other CN platforms dont release their viewership numbers.

They don't release the viewership numbers unless a company asks for it, riot only knows because they got ties with tencent and asked the chinese streaming services for the numbers, to my knowledge Valve haven't asked bilibili or other chinese platforms what their viewership numbers were.

#45

also you realise that champs had 8mil live viewers and Bangkok had 6mil from china

You can also look in the "hot search" menu and see the current top searches and the n1. search rn is wolves vs blg and cs2 is 10th and is about spirit CS

Millions??? U cant even see the current live viewers bro

I'll make it easy for you, https://live.bilibili.com/35?live_from=84004&spm_id_from=333.337.search-card.all.click

above is the offical cs2 stream (there isn't any other channel which streams the cs2 games) with a game happening right now and u can see the run time is 206 hours and yet the stream only has 27k likes whereas the valorant stream stops and starts and 1 hour into the wolves vs blg game it already had 220k likes.

similar to mine lol

https://www.vlr.gg/pickem/d4309440

The stream has been ongoing though and so it would count the likes from the hours which the matches are held as explained before

they were def trying but it seems they have made massive improvements in the past month since CN playoffs finished. BLG were def the better team when they faced

its not brother

This just isnt true, I'm looking at current likes in bilibili for the valorant stream and its at 220k already and the cs stream is at 22k and thats been going on for days on end of non stop streaming (for the official cs and val page on bilibili)

All im doing is tryna to argue against a stupid argument from s-unny, obviously every region should count towards the viewership and my point is that if we are going to include viewership from China in the total viewership of CS then we can do the same for Val and if we do this then Val is easily the more watched esport out of the 2

the script = being a contrarian

even if its pretty insane atm, valorant would still have 3-5x more viewership from china.

bro is def not in the top 10 ngl.

top 30 at best

r u dumb bro. China viewership is wayyyyyy bigger in valorant than in cs

1kk???

is this some weird way of saying a million

they looked very good in china and were easily the best team but they dropped a core player so now its sorta in the air

most likely not since he was always just their sub

yeah but u cant ignore how this event in particular has had more one sided in games than any international event that I can remember. (so far)

the teamates are good tho, if u look back in 2022, 2023 and 2024 they really could've got better players, the system just doesnt really work with these specific players

Mako is def not too high and cryo has been insane domestically (prob top 10 domestically) but yeah he hasn't achieved like anything internationally

list is okay but some placements I heavily disagree with
