Aren't Trace also unbeaten on Lotus in the past split

Don't you learn Spanish in school

I'm talking about Champions here

#11 says otherwise

I thought you were cool now

And they won

In 2023 the meta was two guys alternating duelist and controller. In 2024 the meta is two guys alternating duelist and sentinel. If Trace win Champs, Kai and FengF are one of the things they have that no other team at Champs has.

NOOO
Dude, I REALLY want MENA rep in EMEA :(

The problem isn't that he's aggroing. The problem is that they're not on the same page. Some are aggroing, some are playing passive backsite, and some are dry swinging through Viper orbs with Odins in 5v4s. It's not any single person's fault. They need to solve their problem as a team. They need to regain their synergy, because I'm honestly not seeing it as of late.

Being down 1-11 and winning 12 straight rounds is absolutely crazy

I had them going on a lower bracket run. I'm super happy they won that game but a run through the lower bracket would've been a lot more poetic.

BBL vs. KOI, EMEA Stage 1 2024 (Map 1 - Breeze)

It would be really funny if you changed your flair now that you have 20 upvotes

Didn't he just start igling for Liquid like two months ago

A good day is a day where I don't see five billion people asking for icy to be replaced

Kai my goat

???

Probably school/work

An oversight. I clicked the match history and counted the matches

Thank you! I'll probably update it as the tournament continues, but I'm not sure... might just make a new thread once groups end.
Also yes it is 2-1 now. But I'm only counting past encounters i.e. matches before Champions 2024, so it's still 1-1 (unless they play again, I guess. Not sure how I'd do that yet)

That's kinda based. I love Platoon (Airen and TMV are also very cool. Teets used to be good but he's kinda cringe now)

"Americans/canadians don't lose to Chinese teams"
@Simp4S0m

That's fair. In that case, it would be 1-1

Sliggy and TMV ratings seem a tad biased but otherwise this is good

Nah to what 😭

I worded that really weirdly, but this is basically how many times each matchup has happened before (every opening, winners, and losers match). I'm also including the record between the two teams prior to the match.

11 - GEN vs. SEN (4-7)
3 - FNC vs. DRX (2-1)
1 - FNC vs. BLG (1-0)
1 - FPX vs. TH (0-1)
1 - GEN vs. TH (1-0)
1 - G2 vs. PRX (1-0)
1 - FUT vs. PRX (0-1)
0 - DRX vs. KRU
0 - BLG vs. KRU
0 - SEN vs. FPX
0 - LEV vs. TLN
0 - VIT vs. TE
0 - LEV vs. TE
0 - TLN vs. VIT
0 - EDG vs. FUT
0 - EDG vs. G2

Notes:

• The one win DRX has over FNC was at Champions 2022. Mistic and Enzo were still on the team, and Alfajer played Neon on map 3
• Of those 11 GEN vs. SEN games, 9 of them were played in 2020/21 when GEN in had a Canadian core including gMd and effys
• GEN vs. SEN has happened more times prior to Champions 2024 than every other matchup combined
• No matchup in Group C has ever happened before

BLG didn't look too bad against FNC. They have a chance against KRU, especially if they have a good Abyss prepared, since KRU are picking into it but don't look too good playing the LEV comp (they haven't figured it out yet, and Melser clearly isn't very comfortable on Harbor)

Thank you, number1_cNed_fan! Wish the same for you ^^

I love a good Harbor ace

Yup. Dropped the LOUD flair for DarkZero for a while to support wedid, then to Trace a few days before Champs. Trace has been my favourite CN team since Champs qualifiers last year though, so it's not as if I'm jumping on the train only a few days earlier than everyone else; this is a team I genuinely follow.

It's amazing to see Trace go from #16 to a bandwagon team after one game. Glad to be here from the very beginning.

I love G2 BECAUSE they make VALORANT such a coordinated, strategic game. As someone appeals more to the tactical than the fps, it's genuinely fun to watch them play, to watch them make great plays and completely dissect their opponents' comps and strategies.

How are you the king and you need an alt account to use a VALORANT forum

I hate the fact that if LOUD just played no duelist they could've had a genuine shot at Champs

How did you lose 5-1 to Colombia of all places

I have them winning the rematch. You know what they say; third time's the charm

Dw it happens

They did it a few days after they won Americas

Lmao you're fine, all we're doing here is speculating roster changes

What browser are you using? Internet Explorer, by any chance?

You'd have to drop kiNgg in that situation, and idk if that's a good idea

Good news: Leviatán added the á back to their name
Bad news: It's still written LEVIATÁN

Klaus is definitely the d00mbr0s of Americas

Highest in the league btw

What's your take then

VLR doesn't have a rise nor fall. If VLR was a stock it would look like a sine wave on steroids.
