brotha, ask him to take off the sunglasses or something. how are you going to get a photo without any distinguishing facial features? so many different men could have the same beard type and color. admittedly, it does look a bit like him in terms of face shape, but that's about where the similarities end. NO HATE if it is him...

just wondering when we'd get pick'ems for the global stages (primarily for stage 1) as of now. Ik that only Emea's bracket is visible and apac IS THERE but has no bracket so I'm assuming it'll be after Madrid?

alright, lemme cook here...

NRG: most talent.

SEN: most potential.

FNC: most stacked roster.

KC: best rookies.

TH: benjyfishy and co.

EDG: kangkang and co.

PRX: something and co.

LOUD: need I say more?

these are all my top teams atm. I feel strongly that PRX, FNC, NAVI, and NRG's losses were chalked up to roster/coach changes and them looking shaky to begin with. It's still the beginning of the year so we'll see...

*side note: NAVI is back to original roster. Im'a say that they look better than last year with cNed, but the other teams (TH and KC) prepared more IMO (and were also coming with a vengeance; esp. KC going 0-9 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀)

alr guys. READ THE TITLE. who's winnin' it all, and WHY? also, which team is gonna be the most consistent (i.e. make it to more than 1 event this year, perform at a top level numerous times, etc.) and is it one of the teams at Madrid or nah?

💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

as the title says, i'm just wondering how to get stars on vlr.gg? it's not something I really realised was there for a bit, but I don't really even understand what they mean and just assumed it was either some sort of a ranking system, or how long you've been on the website...?

brotha... tenz's NET WORTH exceeds that of the entirety of EG's total champs 2023 winning roster. if he WANTED TO, he could stream an hour a day and "earnings check" your whole precious NRG roster.

just for reference, the Faker of CS (counter-strike) s1mple* has the same NET WORTH as Tenz (app. $1.7-$2M USD).

and you mentioned job security... SEN is the most clouted organization in the world. anybody, player, or content creator that joins the org ends up getting extremely popular with exponential growth at incredible speeds. Tenz, leading the pack, is probably the most-watched Valorant pro/streamer in the world atm., and despite his audience being primarily younger (kids), they are still willing to pay for subscriptions and donations out of their own (or their parents pockets). He could make more money than the entirety of the NRG roster with streaming alone, and it wouldn't require him any effort at all. He thought this through alllll the wayyy back when he left C9 to pursue content creation 💀💀💀. AND THIS WAS BEFORE SEN.**

It's different when the player is informed via twitter. in this case, it was only the fanbase. do they want Rob Moore to deliver the news next time personally? I get your point, but still...

if you want a jail team, look at EG 💀💀💀💀💀💀.

this shit made me spit out my water

If you root for Verstappen, you've got a 95% chance of a top 3 finish. LOL

ZELLSIS THREW BUT IT DOESNT EVEN MATTER HAHA

great take! Honestly, both teams are playing great, but it seems like Boostio coming off a fresh year of performing at the top makes him seem to have the best game sense, aim, etc. on the entire 100T team. I know it seems like a stretch, but so far this season the entire roster is getting carried by this guy, and props to him since he's insane. SEN is all around the better team, but Boostio has more experience, and it's hard to say who's gonna catch the win going into map 3...

SEN, prepared more for the Lotus pick than the Bind. 100T improvised extremely well on Bind on the rounds where it came down to the wire... (1v1, 2v2, etc.)

bro his fiance has cancer. what are you saying?

alright guys, FNC v. NRG. who wins? which team clears?

"... removing sentinels from their agent pool to clear SEN from their path to masters". holy fuck, this line is some heat.

i'm pretty sure its 1/6/2/2/ with the yellow-green colour.
