people saying too many matches like they dont have a week to prep lmfao, the ONLY issue Is that there wasn't an extra masters + split and champs in November

ascension is getting plenty of hype and all regions have been fun af

people talking about Valorant pros like they're NBA players running their body down every other night is hilarious just have a more year round schedule rofl

let it go bro ur bad

100t isnt scrimming theyre trialing t2 players rofl

lev is a fundamentals team so they always do well is scrims but they never innovate so they start leagues and tournaments strong af then fall off late

scrimbux is useless regardless but LEV is only good on scrims bc they never try never shit presumably

tbf Reyna could work on some maps the double flash with Skye or kay/o is promising

he's right mikeshd is a better coach than Chet, Envy made a international finals with mikes

optic core has been to like 6 lans and 3 finals lmfao

would agree but at the very least whzy is levels above life, he was +30 and +10 in the last two series vs ASE and just dropped 35k in 20 rounds last night

whzy is kangkang level and they are both like 2 tiers above everyone else

tbf It would be pretty weird if riot partnered with the union but NO teams wanted anything to do with Sinatraa considering it's a roster of worse people

Neither should be touched in t1 tbh

sadly this means yay will be franchised next year : ( guard yay inc

They started winning when they started attacking ( offenders )

he's right I fear + counter

bro the guard went from NAs biggest onliners to LAN goats

100t is getting the t2 infusion

the only team that really needs an igl is 100t or sentinels

SEN prob wouldnt replace anyone regardless atm but 100t could def just grab eeiu nismo and johnqt to be cracked af

emea fans should pray apeks bomb out, we've already seen like half of apeks internationally underperform hard

fresh blood with m8 saw and apeks

p sure Xand was the one shit talking lmfao

mid80 vs chad8

Nats left M3C before everyone else bro the core was done before franchised came

Suygetsu and Shao were always on FPX

Chronicle and Nats probably value the money more than getting to live in Russia which im sure they can't since they probably live wherever the current split is being held.

Russian players are scattered and there was never a reality to build a team that could compete with fnatic once gambit fell apart

who igls omegalul

a lot of countries have talent and so does Russia but like it's not overwhelming

You're doing the VLR user thing where you see two Russians doing well in t2 apac and think they are gods

you also fail to understand that if CIS had a spot in franchised they wouldn't have all of those players or atleast not nats chronicle suygetsu and shao as they were always going to play where they landed.

no it wouldnt lol the best Russian team broke up and M3C wasn't even dominating before franchised started

true but bleed is more relevant than the goat apac chokers drx

ur slow t1 is literally better than drx atm lmfao

ascension is more entertaining than t1 lmfao

fusion prob don't win this ascension but KRU could become really competitive with some upgrades

fnatic high-key choked at lock//in they just recovered really well.

you gotta realize teams will improve fast to match the level of fnatic it's an accomplishment if they win champs again not a guarantee

they should make it so deadlock trip picks up player sound queues like switching weapon feel like that adds a great dynamic to the game

Fnatic really could have their B team in franchising lmfao

anyways m8 2-0

m8 winning ascension

two French teams finishing top 6 in emea next year

nah, there definitely is, it's not always about who has more money but who's willing to pay more

yeah it would js bc of his situation and how sen bounce back, but these casters devalue epic moments

who tf is celebrating like messi js scored in the final of the WC during a regular season game in football lmfao

just drop everyone but scream/nivera and pickup gentile mates

tbh he's really good and might be one of the better apac duelists including t1 but the casters ruin every moment, the actual special moments feel less special when they do this every round lol

EMEA has more regions and so does APAC, theres no benefit to adding teams to a Americas ascension all those teams lost already

t0nz trophy for kyedae storyline vs the c9 cinderella run plot

ur a casual lmfao what cned wasn't even the second best player on acend at champs l0l average vlr user thinks cned having 4 more awp kills than mf d3ffo in the finals makes him god

zeek and starxo carried anyways, pretty sure d3ffo had like 20 awp kills to cneds 24 too

Champs cned wasn't peak cned at all

it was a tournament full of new teams, champs 2021 is inherently harder because teams were established, fnatic didn't replace someone as influential as sacy and the FPX win was nice but don't really rate cned in 2023. In short fnatic practiced for a few months before everyone else at a tournament full of new teams and roster changes. Cuan and Tuyz had never been on a stage that big

much easier win than champs 2021 which was two actual superteams

lock//in was lol acend beat a prime gambit and envy with marved and yay lol

would be third or fourth behind liquid and fnatic maybe navi if they fix stuff but above giants and fut

depends on how the emea teams compete with each other, if apeks win I heavily doubt they will do anything considering its a team of international failures lol

neither those are just emotional

city in the sky clears all

if ur gonna do this atleast bring all the lore so I can take over this website

APAC > EMEA ascension

apac ascension is by far the most exciting could see any region winning

jingg and davai were better don't care about rating farmers. apologies for all clueless fans but something is literally the least important player on PRX. they replaced him with a streamer and finished top 3 at tokyo lmfao

something wasn't even prx's best player when he was playing jingg was swear these people are so clueless

doub any emea or americas team ascending has any better of a chance lmfao reality to me is that theres like 3 apac teams that could be mid table.

fns mains like viper mainly then kj/initiator now too. Also, boostio lurks on IGL insanely well I'd say even if marved can't reach a top 10 igl status he can atleast maintain his stats like kingg
