No one hypes up canezera and nightz to the extent people hype up flor. And this is the first time they made t2. And yet no one has said they should be in t1 lol.

They still have an r6 team though they might drop out by the end of the year.

Anyone would tbh.

an emoji doesn't mean EG is picking up a tier 4 duelist?

Open quals? Flor is allowed to play open quals like everyone else.

There is literally no good reason to letting a random gold player play in T2 by your logic.

You think they'll get farmed? Let them get farmed then, it's not a valid reason to stop them from playing in the first place.

1 year in T2 and that team will go winless and get relegated lmao

Doing well in T4 mickey mouse GC tournaments doesn't mean you'll do well in T2.

tier 8

Hell no.

They are allowed to lol. GC players just suck and aren't good enough.

My random immortal friend wants to compete so sen should give him a chance no?

Sym literally made it to T2 Ascension. Flor isn't mopping the floor with anyone other than some T4 GC players

in valorant

sym is way better than flor

sym is 10000x better than flor lmao

Those people can cry then. Who gives a shit. Mickey mouse T4 teams get a free spot in T2 just because they're GC players.

Flor is nowhere close to T1 level for sure but your reasoning is bad.

It literally isn't....? It's extremely underfunded sure but you have to actually earn your spot to get into T2.

Before anyone takes this seriously, just click on their profile page lol

T2 isn't some make a wish mickey mouse league. GC teams should get good enough to get into T2 on their own merit instead of having Riot gift them a spot because they're too dogshit to qualify through open quals like everyone else.

Potter disproved it on stream so no.

Can't remember the last time a MEMEA team won an event.

When was the last time Memea won an event?

And yet GC gets a 500k prize pool while all Premier gets is a spot into dying/underfunded T2 leagues. Crazy.

Literally every single player you listed is 100000x better than Mimi lmao.

Mimi can't even win a T4 GC tourney but somehow could be a top T2 player/play in T1? Lmao.

Also it's not hard to IGL against T4 players so being a GC IGL is basically meaningless.

I mean, ya they did? I'm sure teams have learned their lesson at this point and have much better talent scouting.

💀

Ages ago maybe when meL was getting ultra hyped up.

Tf are you talking about? Tons of T2 players are being brought up into T1. Fnatic dropped Derke for Kaajak, C9 dropped Vanity for v1c, NRG dropped crashies/victor for Verno/Mada etc.

Also, the reason GC players aren't getting trials for T1/T2 teams is because they're T4 players who can't make it past unpaid T3 pugstacks in open quals. So why tf would T1/T2 teams waste their time?

"many of the best GC players are denied trials by VCT and top-tier-2 teams anyway."

Why should T1/T2 teams waste their time trialing T4 GC players lmao. T1/T2 teams don't have infinite time to trial every random T4 player.

One has actually won some meaningful events in T1. One is a T4 player.

Tenz > Vania.

That's dumb. They clearly aren't good enough so you're just denying an actual T2 team from participating to bring in a GC team.

I think I get what you mean but Riot can't force GC players out of the league. There would be huge community uproar over it.

Maybe Riot can force GC players ton participate in T2 quals but there's only so much Riot can do.

He's fine but if he doesn't step it up by the end of the year, he'll get replaced. I'm not convinced it'll 100% be reduxx as his replacement if Zellsis does get replaced. He'll have to trial against other T2 players/whatever T1 players become available.

Your analogy makes no sense. T2 isn't some make a wish league that rewards spots to shit teams that can't qualify on their own merit. They should compete like all other players and have to go through open quals like all other players.

That literally makes no sense lol. These teams definitely tryhard in T2 open quals. They just suck and can't make it.

We know no GC team is T2 level considering none of them can get past unpaid T3 pugstacks in T2 open quals.

The best GC teams aren't good enough at all to get into T2. Banning them from GC would just make them unemployed considering their entire brand and value comes from competing in GC.

Flor's stuck in GC because Flor's a T4 mickey mouse duelist. Literally everything about Victor as a player clears Flor lmao. If 2024 NRG had Flor, they would have lost every match 0-2, 0-13, 0-13.

Also, no way you're talking about T2 duelists gapping Victor when there are hundreds to thousands of unpaid T2/T3 players that clear mickey mouse T4 salaried Flor lmao.

You definitely have brain damage. Flor isn't remotely close to Victor's skill level and that'll never change unless he retires. Also, you want me to compare Flor T4 stats to Victor's T1 stats? No shit Flor will have higher stats when you play against dogshit T4 players.
Also Flor would be lucky to make it past RO32 of T2 open quals lmao. Victor is good enough to be on a mid to lower mid T1 team but he'll just have to reprove himself in T2.

How much brain damage do you have to think that if you put aspas, zekken, texture or derke on SR that they wouldn't immediately qualify to T2 lmao. That would be the biggest upgrade the game has ever seen. Also Victor is 10000x better than Flor is. That doesn't change just because Flor can't beat some unpaid T3 pugstacks as a fully salaried T4 player.

fl0rescent

Those plays are only a win because they face mickey mouse T4 teams. We see how it falls apart playing unsigned T3 teams with more than 2 braincells.

I mean, ya no shit. There's probably thousands and thousands of players who clear that overpaid T4 player.

Then don't gatekept by unpaid T3 pugstacks in open quals as a fully salaried player?

Yes. And you can play in challengers if you're 16. Flor is just a T4 duelist.

a t4 player isn't getting t1 coaching

j0ngg is a one trick fraud but still 100000x better than fl0r
