i had a great one! its honestly up to luck when finding a major perfect for you. sometimes shitty professors make us lose passion in certain areas we would've pursued with a great prof.

isnt the valo team literally the only team they have left?

I hate jeffery. If your name is jeffery, fuck you.

1. We saw a sudden influx of rookies due to most of T2 blowing up (thanks, franchising) leading to the influx of free agents from T2 teams, along with multiple new orgs (koi, giantx, karmine, ) getting franchised over previously established teams (acend, V1, guild, etc). This led to newly franchised teams mostly signing rookies/T2 players into tier 1 while the veteran players from the unfranchised orgs shuffled into established franchised orgs or retiring.

Let's see how many genuine rookies are being introduced to franchised teams 3 years from now (not including Asencion winners)

2. You are right. LoL does have a strong t2 scene especially in emea. OWL is just one example gone bad. however, val's t2 format is utter dog compared to LoL's system. LoL's t2 system have their own mini international tournaments on LAN for cash prizes while 90% of val's t2 scene is domestic and online. lame. With orgs dropping out every year due to failure (Union, OXG, Acend), fanbases are hard to establish and rivalries are non existent, which leads to no hype and poor viewership, which only furthers the downward spiral of T2.

PRX has clobbered EDG 95% of their matchups until recently.
TLN-TS irrelevant because they never make it to global events
SEN - 100t same story as PRX-100t. also one of the most manufactured "rivalries" ever. they get "placed" in the same matchups/bracket(excluding seeded brackets) every time.

Real rivalries form at the top, good example is Optic and Loud, where they meet only a couple times a year at masters/champs events.

1. Franchising allows mediocrity in "Tier 1" to fester due to the lack of relegation. This leads to dogshit lineups such as mibr, furia, dfm, etc existing in the supposed "tier 1" scene of val. Less competitive teams = less competition = less exciting games for the fans.

Without a sense of relegation or an urgency to fix your team before you get booted to t2, it allows stagnation.

2. Franchising leads to less new talent. with orgs being less willing to invest in t2 and t3, potential players are much less willing to go pro full time without the guarantee of a fixed salary/exposure from orgs. ofc there will still be new talent but much less. This lack of talent leads to the recycling of older, more experienced players leading to less spots for upcoming players.

3. precedent. look at how dead OWL's T2 scene is.

brain dead take. franchising tradeoffs competitiveness for marketability.

you think that's franchising's fault when it has nothing to do with it

? do you even understand what you're writing?

legit destroyed one of the greatest rivalries in val history with optic and loud.

heart failure or cancer?

saudi blood oil money

that shit was not revolutionary when he came around

farming t2 though

me

demon1 is washed, yay is toxic, and cned is fat. cant win em all

cant wait to see them aquire absolutely no talent

stop with these youtube ass impression baits. this exact thread appears everytime there's an underdog game

Thank god

anything toyota. DONT get german or american

he's bad

all speculation, there's no evidence of them being chaebols either

Prob from the divorce settlement lol. Could've been an affair with the rich dad

His mom could've married rich. Would explain her lifestyle on social media.

i've seen enough. washed.

blud really boosting. scum of the earth type of person. I am no longer a y0y fan.

too bad he sold out to streaming

W if true

Im confused. I thought it was nonconsensual sex?

1. ardiis
2. mako
3. leaf

honorable mention: vanity

who cares bro

mcdonalds

then why would TL drop their best player if not internal problems

they def not winning, but they still might make it into playoffs

fell off

facts. booing is an integral part of any competitive atmosphere. crowds should always be tense, either supporting or heckling creates pressure and higher stakes in the moment

This is why valorant crowds will never be good.

jordan dropped 38 points against a prime Malone and Stockton Jazz team in the NBA finals with ligma.

No excuses

team chem with sacy:

haha sacy you are bald

team chem without sacy:

...

Aspas is the most overrated player of all time

who watches that shit anyways

not relevant

a low functioning monkey could probably make a more sensible format for the year. like not only is the champs qualification system absolute garbage, the offseason time makes literally no sense. mibr has been on offseason for like 10 months now its crazy

imagine somebody just getting into valo esports and trying to figure out this monstrosity

This format might be the worst format of all history of sports. Good job to riot games making the shittiest format possible. Really outdid last year.

what else would you want from a co host? if you want detailed analysis go watch sliggy or something. hes there for being funny and thats enough.

LMFAO ENGLAND CAN NEVER WIN ONCE HSAAHAHAHAHAH

what in the emo
