Astralis in valorant? this is interesting
although sad to see Will want to leave BBG

i don't think that TSM is dropping roza anytime soon, he's really good, if he was getting dropped, this means that TSM is going full rebuild mode

honestly, it's just us believing in our team, we know our team is capable of hanging with some of the best, which just boosts our belief in them

who is NA? cuz my eyes are kinda dry rn

fr, the USA is the !st when it comes to covid cases

ngl, this move helped SS more than it helped LG imo

honestly, a change of meta and possibly a change of roster and our chances skyrocket, but that depends on how we play the cards, and if NA wins berlin

fracture is alright, but what I do like from the map is that you actually need to be creative to win, you can't just hold angles and expect to win

it should have been called split, map is legit split down the middle

or, hear me out, its a bit wild.
GE should qualify first?

Breeze is a replica of Cobblestone and Ascent has similar designs to Inferno, i like Riot to make creative maps like Haven and Icebox, make the map pool more apart from the map pool of CS, and makes valorant as a whole its own game

this just seems like a lack of creativity, and this is a bit surprising from a high rank like you ngl

outlines on

Asuna's Crosshair

Hiko was insane in CS but he was just the definition of unlucky

there is a big chance that they get thief with bang gone now, and jammyz is pretty good too, i think those are the most likely

what is going on

or we could move hazed to flex and get bang on 2nd duelist

its too good

KennyS is still pretty good, but there are wayyyy better awpers than him, like Device, s1mple, etc.

Group A is stacked as shit

skrossi has not been talking about for a while

paracosm is the biggest 5 head on this website rn

so you're saying china could not give a rat's ass about the economy or the happiness of their ppl and are just doing this to keep the ppl from starting some nationalist movement like they did to overtake the original Chinese govt. back in 1949? thats crazy. then there's really no reason for them being a international powerhouse

listen, KR valorant is good, its good enough to actually contend with EU and NA and possibly take thier teams to 3 maps. they placed 3th at Iceland, behind FNC and eventual winners, SEN

bro, what?

i still dont get the importance or the reason for this, what is the motive, since this was out of the blue as well

so we're basically moving back in time with China?

its a game for the ages, it obviously had a decline in popularity but its one of the most best-selling games ever. I don't like the game, but its very hard to deny greatness

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

VS isn't winning Group A, everyone with at least 2 brain cells knows this
f4q can win a spot to playoffs if G2 pulls a G2 and decides to choke harder than Riley Reid could.
Brazil is obviously under KR
This take is fucking dumb

no, EMEA is fine, its developing at a steady pace and the teams all look competitive, and giving them more spots isn't all that good, I see no point in it

TenZ: "It's [Breeze] just like Cobblestone. I love Cobblestone"
Legit plays Ascent and craps on everybody
Bind is probably one of their best maps
Their Icebox is not great but they do good on it

This take sucks

China never had any ounce of influence in CS, the chances they make an influence in Valorant is just as low. Only team I think can contend every year in China is Tyloo Gaming if they entered Val again

VK can take NV to 3 maps but I have a feeling NV wins, and VK will lose to KRU imo

no

i do think 100T can beat Gambit, but for that to happen, Steel needs to be on his AA game, Hiko needs to leave that "Bait by playing Util" shit outta here and Asuna needs to go 72/9/23, anything lower is simply unacceptable

if you play on any pc that doesn't run on yams and potatoes, then yes. If you're like me who plays on a laptop with integrated gronkfix and dual core cpu, then its a ticking timebomb

1. wtf is a spiritual opium? sounds more like parental copium
2. what is the reason behind this? it was already tough enough to play video games in China, I cannot wrap my head around something like this
3. how many hours can people 18+ play video games?
4. China has now officially killed any chance of them becoming a powerhouse in any game that isn't a MOBA/Fighting game

China has massive potential, also, they aren't talked about in general, wtf are you on about?

no you can, but the flank/lurk needs to be good cuz its mostly anticipated

I mean, thats kinda the point of the maps in every game, go a/b site

.

Subroza always has a good game when I watch him, so i'd say him. Same with TenZ, he always puts up good numbers

why hate? (if u say the fans, i won't take that answer)

true, i have alot of friends that are plat and are near diamond
meanwhile im b2 :/

idk, but i hear skrossi the best APAC jett, so imma go with him at 1

nah, its 2. I kinda like it like this tho, its more organized

you also have to take into account the fact that India began to develop the valorant esports scene far later down the road then say, NA and KR, which had a good comp esports scene since the early days of valorant. And they can't just make room for slots for an esports scene that is still in development, India, while it should get a spot, cannot just integrate itself into a competition thats half way finished, they have to wait until next year to enter the VCT.

Riot gives slots based on the region size, not based on how many viewers a region can get, if that were the case, TR would have like 4 slots simply bcuz they had like 100K viewers in a seeding match mutliple times

TenZ is pretty young, i don't even think he's 21 yet, he has a long way to go, he might retire in like 10 years but thats a long way from now
