if this ends up being G2 vs 100T it will be the worst Grand Final ever

Map pool favors GenG

I legit thought they moved away from Reyna after Madrid. Reyna on Breeze makes zero sense. I think moving away from Cypher comps is impacting them too.

bro is mad that j0nggg went out 6th kekw, get this man a wonyet

I mean, Alecks deserves a ton of credit for everything he's done for these guys and nothing should be taken away from him. But I'm wondering if he's brought them as far as they can go at this point and there needs to be analysts/assistant coaches or whoever to bring these gifted players into a different direction. They got top 3 at Madrid, sure. They're still a regional powerhouse. But I'm worrying that the team is regressing internationally with how VALORANT has changed.

I'm wondering if Paper Rex needs to pick up an analyst. I don't understand how you could have a team of players who have been in the top tier of VALORANT for so long and have the most international experience out of any team and still make the ridiculous mistakes they make. These guys deserve a trophy for their mechanical skill alone and it's depressing to see them go out 5th-6th.

There's been a ton of Jinggg/Monyet debate, but what about Mindfreak? If you replaced him with Monyet you might've had a better Paper Rex. This game was sad to watch. The amount of rounds they threw on Icebox was crazy. The ego peeks were unbelievably stupid.

"WHAT IN THE HELL IS THAT?" after berLIN's insane tp on ascent

tenz whenever he's on top of a box on sunset

m0NESY would be the second coming of prime yay

Became the worst player in the region statistically, had no choice but to bench him

They're in counter strike finals they must be good

Wait, CS grand final sounds like cinema wtf

Levius was a temporary replacement for B3ar until they could find a new IGL. Nearly all the kills Levius got were after the rounds were done and dusted. His calling was also really bad. Lucky they managed two wins (beating TYLOO and JDG) so champs is possible.

You should invest your supports in Tenz, hopefully Riot does the right thing and ships him out to the Mercedes Benz Arena to salvage Shanghai

Not sad for FUT. They've overperformed. It's sad for Heretics because they threw an 11-2 lead on Ascent but I guess that's karma for drawing DRG.

It will be nephh who used to be a member of Bleed, replacing levius (who was quite literally playing like a bot in Split 1)

I think delb from All Gamers is also an import. BLG will be getting an import for their igl too.

NAVI vs EDG? It ain't Tokyo anymore bro EDG is washed. We need NAVI vs FPX for the ange1/berlin battle of the century.

I'm afraid TH's mental is shot after that loss to G2. This could go either way.

Karon easily. We've seen wo0t in Split 1. He's not a 'best in the world' controller/initiator. Jett on the other hand? He looks world-class but Karon is a world-class controller and it's VERY difficult to find that. Karon could have Mako status within a few years.

the return of fnatic was greatly exaggerated, 'fraid they're not winning anything

Underrated player tbh. I doubted him as well but his util is perfect and he's very clutch and capable of fragging. You don't need Lakia to popoff on the leaderboard when the team is as stacked as it is.

I can't believe I binged watched that entire show and loved it until they dragged out the final season like crazy and I just stopped giving a fuck

Heretics were completely shot on Lotus. I swear only Benjy was mentally still in it. Riens and wo0t completely checked out after that loss on Ascent. I don't blame them, I would've been upset too.

"but KC" kek you better move that goalpost

"chances are slim" lmao no they're not, dont doubt fucking anything this tournament. G2 could legit make the Grand Final at this point

no one cares about G2?

Vitality absolutely. Maybe TL would also be a good fit but I personally don't like their style of play. KOI or Giantx would be a death sentence for him.

This was the less interesting match of the night by far

Team 3
you can't be taking foxy9 off sentinel with how well he's been doing in that role

If FPX didn't choke against EDG in the CN Grand Final and were top seed who knows what would've happened

Meteor on Ascent is fucking Godly

"looking forward to the paper rex match in the upper finals" - zikz
"100t vs prx grand final gonna be crazy" - vlr
PRX 2-1

Sentinels just better KEK

GenG gotta take it, their run in China has just been amazing to watch and I want them to spite the Chinese fans lol. Their players would be so deserving of the win. What a year they've had.

headband buff

KEKW

send qck1 to china

stop the chron and boaster hate, hate on leo instead bro thought he could eat chinese food before an elimination match

I'd vote for Shion7 to go. Funny thing is TZH was easily the best member of DRG in both their Shanghai matches.

islam masterclass

'fraid so, paper rex is never winning an international

Ranking China, is All Gamers really the 5th best team? Kek

sen ti nels

Might've cooked

I've cried for yay
