Unironically yes

people really thought botality was a great team kekw

like bro how is giantx so bad

tyloo core are so washed lol

Flor had unnecessary shoes to fill though. Like she was farming a t5 league through superior mechanics and people made a big deal calling her an S tier talent. Never was on a structured team to learn anything before t1. Then every pro/streamer had to put in their two cents to fuel the fire. Strange case of someone who's overhated and overrated.

Miniboo is one of the most overhated

it will be the upset of the week, free money

scales is no joke one of the biggest frauds ive ever seen in t1

Rossy, Primmie, Ethan

UBEL PEAK FRIEREN PEAK TOP TIER WAIFUS

Smoggy was sort of quiet until the last few games. His performance against TEC was lights out. Might be the strongest individual performance of the season up there with Xeus.

Looking back, it's a bit sad that we're never going to reach the level of cinema that was FNC vs LOUD in Brazil. It's the passion from the fans that made that game even more special and fun to watch. Yeah, walking out after FNC won was super disrespectful to the players but if you don't like hearing a crowd that hyped to support a team do you even like competitive gaming or sports at all? It must've been an unforgettable experience for the players.

LMAO it might be time to save slowly or just get rid of TYLOO bruh, they just resigned the player with the worst performance in t1 history

bring back morved

this is why babybay clears

red wave

Honestly some valid points here, like it's not even fun shitting on teams as it was from 22-24. Making fun of NRG and DFM nowadays for example is just depressing af and not even fun. It's like tipping over someone in a wheelchair and then saying "I won".

Bait

Ardiis said he wants to play for a team in Stage 2, where do you think he'll go?

I'm expecting EDG/NOVA/BLG to be the teams, XLG might upset but I'm confident in NOVA's chances. In Toronto they just have to hope they don't face G2 or DRX in their first match or something. They have the firepower to compete as long as OBONE/oOoOo don't put up 2024 Boaster numbers.

At best in Toronto we'll get NOVA beating 2 or if they're lucky 3 teams, similar to what Trace did at Champs.

CHICHOO clears Kai on senti tbh, Kai's an outstanding player but in that role CHICHOO looks more comfortable

RRQ have a tendency to look strong on one map then fall apart under pressure in the third map and lose the series. They also can't beat VCT Korea for shit. But this is a match that could go their way considering T1 isn't in amazing form right now. So like 45% chance maybe

BOOM/DRX is like 30% for BOOM

It's better if they don't lol, they need a new IGL, more time with Lukxo and just a total reset of their mental

Their best chance would be against All Gamers, a team of undercooked academy players with no direction whatsoever

would All Gamers and JDG beat NRG and Furia? That's the real question

this, Rarga is a top 3 duelist in china now, FengF fell off this year

I think it's more than Xffero lol, RRQ are serial chokers

twitter and reddit think m80 is going to farm t2 like prime optic

Sato was also pretty shit on Neon tbh

val community really shit on chet and called him a fraud for over a year to the point where he was the most hated coach, then a week ago said that m80 will improve by signing chet, now we're right back to shitting on him after a loss kek

flor clears ardiis any day

Honestly I'm not sure exactly what's wrong in the Wolves camp, with their roster they should be the #3 team for Toronto but somehow they're getting stomped by BLG

flor a cute fr

kiss the ground flor walks on

GE's problem right now doesn't seem like the players individual skill, they've had many great players over the years (Patrick is questionable) more so the lazy org/poor management, if you want to see Indians in t1 maybe GE should give me resources to their Academy team, the org just throws money to a bunch of cracked players from all over the world and fumbles them

Kind of expected since Trace is worse now than they were in Shanghai and Destroyer is probably seething at the players about it lmao

NOVA's issue right now is role comfortability I think, Guang is shaky on duelist and cb's best role is initiator. OBONE is like the worst Yoru player in China and Guang plays sentinel much better than he does. So maybe they need a Chinese duelist that synergizes with the team and they'll be even better

Slowly is insane but replacing NOVA's igl is a risk that doesn't need to be taken imo

Who's even the favorite going into China Ascension this year? I don't read the Chinese forums

Trace A tier above DRX is actually WILD

Deryeon is def a better player but not a high level duelist, I think Udotan should be their duelist player. If Patrick keeps underperforming he's 100% gone before Split 2

I have a feeling RRQ fans are once again hyping up their team just for them to end up middle/upper middle of the pack after choking to a Korean team in playoffs

bruv returned to his prime for one last game and its against furia

Big issue there is that OBONE is stealing Guang's role (sentinel), I won't be surprised if NOVA drops OBONE before split 2 to get the role issues sorted out

Honestly I'm not sure how NS keeps getting away with some of the plays they're making, when it works it works but when it doesn't dambi looks like a complete fool

OBONE duelist
sword9 initiator
berlin controller
mrcani flex
PangH sentinel

roster would feed generations

send heybey to the soup kitchen bruh, trace falloff is real

Davai in the big '25 is not it, man. Doesn't look comfortable on senti or controller. Fragging/aim went downhill. Mindfreak is much more valuable than him. I know he's a got a ton of goodwill with the fans (they target jing, not davai) but we have to call a spade a spade here.

NOVA has looked better since comming in full Chinese but they have a serious role issue right now, they need a strong duelist player. Maybe bring in Spitfires or a duelist from t2 for next season? Not having a duelist is going to bite them in the ass down the road.
