what cpu do you have

better late than never

he changed his name

americas has won three internationals since tokyo and has had different teams makes finals each year in franchising with the exception of 2024

if possible i would go for a 3070, 8 gb of vram should be enough for what you want to do

sadly emea fans are just as cocky

every team plays post plant on attack though…

finally you rebranded back to normal

0/8 both of them are winning

PRX MUST face every americas team

did they post defense % stats?

t1 g2 haven was pretty fire

premier team

did we watch the same game? they played fine in the upper final asides from a terrible call in round 15 on abyss and entirety of split

BBL 1-2 NRG + they’re usually comfortable against EMEA teams

sen 2021 and sen 2024 are completely different teams

ethan, sacy and technically tenz

35%

Is lar0k the only one that’s not a fraud? Loita is up there

You mean one fraud

i agree m8 are favs but not by that much, ns are familiar with them since they’ve scrimmed them heading into santiago so the matchup could go in their favor

“70:30” Are we serious

55/45 imo

M8s are technically not an ascension team as they took up the main franchising slot after KOI got removed. Starxo would join sacy as the second ever player to win champions and masters

BBL is technically an ascension team

G2 never placed top 6 at an international

Son

WE are excited for NRG to 2-1 them

verno scan
karon smokes

We need to make THE saving superteam

Over FNC? easily and it’s not even CLOSE

Everyone thinks G2 are the weakest team coming out of the swiss stage, nobody has them as the favorites lol

He’ll be as good as flashback trust

Bonur masterclass

the players aren’t even the issue on that team

NS players especially RB have more experience in Tier 1 so if any first seed will escape the international nerves it’s definitely them

Not saying that they won’t because they definitely could, but imo it’s more likely that the other 3 first seeds struggle

there’s people unironically saying M8 is a tier below BBL, what I said is tame

NS could have stage fright but not BBL?

I’m all for the excuse by why exclude BBL when they’ve never played in tier 1 unlike NS?

yall just gotta avoid prx

the stars aligned in bangkok only for stax to take it away

name value aside, ns and m8 also inspire more confidence in my eyes but if they can beat those then maybe they can win

got lucky that this meta fits their roster, the moment it goes to anything else they will likely struggle + they’re likely to not make top 4 at a masters for the first time since shanghai

Stax

name value aside they’re probably not the best team in their side of the bracket lol

their split wasn’t even all that tbf the only good win they had on that map was over t1

2 map team actually

Was firepower even an issue for them?

they’re gonna make jonahp say fuck g2

so they beat PCF, two teams that placed in the top 5 and a team that made santiago playoffs

all except PCF (who had the potential to do some damage until Leader took a break) are good teams + BBL looked impressive in their wins even the sweaty game vs M8s

lar0k: better wo0t
lovers rock: one of the best scope users
loita: underrated smokes demon
crewen: solid role player (albeit he’s had a rough individual performance this kickoff)
rose:

for a team that went from premier to masters they are fundamentally sound and are as good as those big names you mentioned, the only thing that’s holding them back is experience

M8s performance in swiss is hard to gauge since they beat EDG and TL both of whom had questionable performances.

NRG beat a chinese team and TL as well, doesn’t really mean much.

What did keiko say

nah bbl are slightly better

are they?

agreed, loita lar0k and lovers rock can’t do all the heavy lifting
