Honestly one of the worst games I've watched this season. This brutally exposed both teams. I hope neither makes Toronto because it's going to be rough.

as a LOUD fan you should want them to miss playoffs to save yourself further embarrassment

Team Secret needs a complete rebuild around Invy, I don't even think Meow is the problem. TS has been a stagnate team even before he joined.

look good on 1/3 maps
give hopium to fans
fall apart in the third
korean team wins

indian moment

You realize everyone on PRX (except maybe Davai right now) is capable of putting up big numbers right? It's a comp/macro issue. Their midrounding is bad and their team comps/roles are terrible. Mindfreak and Forsaken are 2 players that shouldn't be dropped, anyone else being cut for an igl is acceptable.

I have a feeling TEC is winning tonight tbh

I didn't watch BLG/TE, is Midi even good?

most honest RRQ fan kek

vlr when MEMEA is a mudshow, picking the best team is like choosing the nicest guy in prison

Aside from EDG the contenders look like BLG/NOVA/XLG, I think XLG is most likely to upset. BLG could do it sure but their style of val only works in China tbh, they flopped at Champs last year and against NRG/DRX in the offseason. I struggle to call them a great team.

NOVA has the firepower do it but who knows how they'll look against a non-Chinese team.

prx 2-0 the only team that is more clueless than them

prx fans after this game: we're so back!

weirdly enough they're probably EMEA's only chance at a trophy this year if Alfa gets out of his slump and Chron steps up a bit, calling and teamplay looks far better than VIT/TH

where even is maple, we seriously trying t2 china again?

If I'm production I'm 100% playing that for the clip

100T are just stagnate bro. Like this team actually needs a fire lit under their ass again. Before Shanghai weren't they the #1 americas team? One of the best Bind teams in the world? Now they're back to being mid again.

I think it's a bit strange seeing everyone shitting on Sayf like he's the worst player in EMEA when people were literally begging for this guy to be on a better team when Vitality was just Sayf and friends last year, like this guy just went from the penthouse to the outhouse with fans lmao. Like sure he said the weirdest thing but now we're rewriting history.

this dude has the posture of a spider wtf lowkey scary

No one cares about FUT lol, there's like no hype behind their roster. Xeus is insane but they're a stagnate team. They're not going to be an international contender unless they replace 2 more people minimum. If Loita and Larok joined the team maybe then they'd be hyped.

Even by shock value humor standards it's kind of a ridiculous thing to say, unless there's some type of running joke among them about Sayf's mom that is the most random thing ever

BLG 2-1 probably, I actually hate their style of val and Levius/Rushia/Knight is far from the strongest roster but somehow they keep winning games

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

j0ng d0ng

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.

dambot

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
