Yeah it just insta breaks those. Same with the breakable door on Lotus

That's what the stars give you
4 stars = 30 second cooldown

Oh neat ok

Champs gives you more money than Masters

Also that's not prize pool, that's how much the winner gets nvm I'm stupid you said 1st place prize pool

Imo for individual pickups it's one of T1 Meteor, KC Saadhak, or NRG Verno

Love a nice silver lining :)

Last year each capsule was 2340 VP, and you could only buy the bundle, not the individual items

Why is every VLR user rebrand horrible??

number1_cNed_fan >> n1cf
DeyahAlAjarma >> Hades_Loves_Rb
kanyefan4238173 >> kfan4238173

The announcement was December 9

If you say oderus is the best coach in EMEA I'm going to whack you with a cast iron pan

No, like... if he puts a nade inside the tp, then it will fly around the map and go into the tp—that's not a bug. What is a bug is the fact that if you put a nade right outside the tp, it'll open it anyway

You can open the Bind tps from the outside

Search either "zjos" or "keke"

Obviously he's gonna be played outside of Kickoff... come on, bees, I thought you were smarter than that 😁

Insert literally any zJos top 3 ever here

Are we not gonna talk about the fact that there's 6 people in the top 5

Thought this was Simp4S0m with another Biank hate thread for a second

??? 😭

No problem

Thank you!

LMAOOOO

This is SO much better imo. Interested in hearing y'all's thoughts, though

Is f4ngeer confirmed? Who else is on the roster?

From the 10.00 Patch Notes:

• Automatic Remake Voting
  • When a player AFKs in the first round, a remake vote now automatically starts and requires only a majority vote of the remaining players to pass.
  • Example: Previously if one player was AFK, this vote required all four players to vote yes. Now it only requires three out of the remaining four players to vote yes to be successful.

I think this is a great change. This will not only automatically start a remake (always nice to not have to do that manually), but it'll also allow you to dodge that one guy who always says "he's coming back" (they don't come back).

Update: this is from the 10.00 patch notes

• Starting in 2025, VALORANT will no longer be using Episodes. This year we’ll be introducing a year-long calendar called Season 2025.
  • Each Season will last the whole year and is broken down into 6 Acts so we can celebrate a year-long journey with you.
  • Ranks will be resetting at the beginning of Season 2025, and will also reset again at an upcoming midseason moment.

Currently unknown. I'm hoping it's a reset every 3 acts (i.e. 6 months), but they haven't said anything yet. Anna did say, however, that they'll be sharing more over the next few days, so I guess we'll get the answer then

You're different. You do it in a fun way for engagement

Just had to throw that in lmao

Nahhh that's crazy 😭
At least edit that out

IF there's only one Masters event in the year it's not gonna be thought of Masters 2, it's gonna be Masters 1. Please try a different bait gimmick, this one's very tedious to argue

You're fighting your demons, man. I'm not arguing whether or not it IS a Masters event or not; I'm saying that it quite literally does not matter for this argument

Okay but why did you end your argument with "Point proven." as if you've proved anything?

Your logic is flawed. If LOCK//IN wasn't a Masters, then Tokyo would be the first Masters of the year, but FNATIC also won that anyway

Loves M8, hates everyone else

I guess so yea

Good point actually, didn't think about that. I guess it would suck if (purely for example) you spent a massive amount of time on Bind, and your Bind is really really good, but then this guy comes out and he's just insanely good on Bind and counters everything you've been doing and your offseason is now a waste of time

My point is that this is the orgs' fault that everyone has the same banner. They complained to Riot because some teams had better banners and were thereby selling better or something (even though it's the team's job to design a banner). I can't find a source but direct quotes were sent a bunch of times in various VLR threads yesterday

Everyone's blaming Riot for the banners in the capsules but isn't just the orgs' fault? Like come on, how hard is it to make a good player card? I get you don't have a ton of money nor a ton of time but literally just hecking find someone on Fiverr to do it for $10 and you have a top tier player card by the next day. It's genuinely not that hard, and this outcome is on behalf of a ton of laziness from some (not all) of the orgs that didn't sell much last year, either because their banners weren't good or because they don't put in the effort to create any hype or frankly any semblance of a fanbase to begin with.

Yes I'm pissed, thank you for noticing

Teams that run him will have as much time to prep with him as teams that play against him will have to learn how to counter him

Damnnnn bro's an og

I wish I had that buddy on my Vandal 😔

Idk how I feel spending a good amount of money on a premium skin and then using a battle pass skin over it, but regardless I'm a fan of your collection, seems very well put together :)

I will say that I think the buddy you have on your Vandal would look better on your Phantom. Just a thought

Yup

I get that perspective. All I can really say to that is this: once you use it for a while and get past that initial thought, you can grow to like it. I personally LOVE spraying with this Phantom—it almost seems designed to sound good while spraying. The pullout and reload are also very well crafted, both in vfx and sound design.

I will say that the sound quality on different headphones also plays a part in this. When I play with earbuds, it does sound a little airy, but with certain headphones you can hear more of the bass frequencies so it sounds like a heavier Phantom than it actually is.

Waiting for a specific knife to show up in my shop rotation

Ironically, of all the skins I own, Prime Vandal is one of the ones I'd be fastest to replace. Don't get me wrong, it's very very satisfying and I love hitting shots with it because the kill banner is one of the best in the game. But I love having great variants and Prime debatably doesn't have that, and it also feels very vanilla compared to others Vandals of the same tier or higher (e.g. Champions 2023, Imperium, Sentinels of Light, Kuronami, Overdrive, and Elderflame, to name a few of the ones I like). I have felt at times a little bored of it, albeit never for very long.

At the end of the day, Prime is satisfying as hell :D

I hope so too 🥲

Will have to see when Kickoff rolls around. Because I don't think I'll be able to tell how hyped or not I am for the team until they start playing

Cavalier was a premium skinline in a battle pass that ended almost 2 years before I started playing the game

(Also frankly it's very ugly, I would never spend money on it)

Horrendous bait

It was my favourite skin in VALORANT back when it came out, and honestly might still be... my friend bought it for me as a gift in December 2023—it was my first skin, in fact

My two usual setups are black/gold with the Harbor buddy and red/green with the gimbap buddy. :)

Also this goes without saying but Sentinels of Light Phantom slander will not be tolerated

I see Realm3098, I downvote
