Nah ur good

they can't even qualify to Ascension and can't win split 3

I know MITH well as well, been following them pretty much all year. And yeah, you're discrediting them.

Let's look at results alone, just to keep it objective. They won Split 2, which would've qualified them to Ascension in any other region, and ended up losing in the qualification playoff finals to FS. They performed better than FS at the time imo, and FS was 3rd in Ascension. And MITH have made an upgrade by bringing in Laz as well. This current team would've had one of the best shots in the region at winning Ascension, and had they beat FS in that final (like they had in the previous one) they probably could've made it into tier 1.

Two different Laz's

You're heavily discrediting MITH. They're a very good team, always top contenders in Thailand, and the core has been together for a while now

Will check when I go to the store next time, ty

Go talk to the guys with 35 Vandals and 50 knives. I'm currently rocking default

If I were to buy a $50 League of Legends gift card, could I use it for VALORANT and it would count as a $50 VALORANT gift card?

(Context: the store I go to has $50 gift cards for League of Legends but not VALORANT. I'm saving for a 4350 VP melee but because of exchange rates from USD to CAD the only way I can afford the melee is if I buy a $50 card because it gives you more bonus VP than two $25 cards)

The Cypher Deadlock propaganda is spreading to Pearl 😭

...leaving carpe and Munchkin... in such an uphill battle... but they take the first step! THE SECOND! [No way!] CARPE, out of his MIND. With 20 seconds though, look how clooOOOOOO- CARPE!

Plant goes in... but mojj moves closeeeRRRRRR CARPEEEEE!!!! [CAN YOU BELIEVE IT!?] WHAT A TIME TO COME ALIVE FOR T1!!!

ZETA GC

No, not at all. I didn't say "FURIA is gonna win this series anyway and y'all're gonna be sorry you ever clowned on havoc." I said "FURIA does not deserve this much hate for literally one map and havoc is not a bad player." Two completely different opinions 😅

This is very true. I felt that had already been proven to more than many this offseason... apparently not yet.

I'm not gonna outright say I don't follow the scene, because I do to some extent, but I'll just say there's not much I know about Galorys that can't be discovered by spending 15 seconds on their matches page

#3 and #4 should disprove that

That was one map. One. Singular. Their first map as a team. Against probably the best tier 2 team in Brazil. On their map pick. A map they're very good at, mind you—they've played it 3 times in their last 3 series (Split 3 upper semifinals, upper finals, and grand finals) and have lost a total of 15 rounds on in those 3 Abyss maps.

Losing this map does not mean FURIA is immediately the bottom team of VCT Americas this year.
Losing this map also does not mean FURIA should be "relegated from franchising", which isn't even a thing that can happen to begin with.

And no, havoc does not deserve this much hate. Yes, he played poorly. Yes, he overextended a lot. But like... seriously guys, it's one map. Just chill.

Pocoyo

yay is on senti what are you talking about

What are the comps?

It's been 6 rounds bro

Appreciate it

I'm not gonna say I'm 100% unbiased but regardless, here's what I've got...

1. NRG
2. G2
3. EG
4. LEV
5. KRU
6. LOUD
7. MIBR
8. SEN
9. C9
10. 100T
11. FUR
12. 2G

A few notes:

• I don't think LOUD will be as bad as people are saying (they have great synergy and some very good names, despite losing both Saadhak and Less)
• I don't think MIBR will be as good as people are saying (they have pretty much no synergy yet, a lot of these players have never played with each other... even if they end up doing well, it's gonna be a slow start)
• C9 is not a bottom 3 team by any means (they qualified for RBHG by beating SEN with this same roster, mind you)
• SEN will probably be in the top half by year's end but until they get comfortable in their roles (which I don't see happening super soon) they'll struggle a tad (if they do get big round wins, it'll likely be off individual firepower until that happens)

I have MITH losing to TLN and then beating both SEN and GEN to make playoffs

Final exam with no retake opportunities vs. VALORANT offseason tournament group stage match with VOD available at any later date

Mazino is a flex player (was a flex last year as well). mta is inactive. And downvoted for hating on Melser, my guy ain't done nothing wrong

There's no digging yourself out of this hole

One of those side effects is that camping in smokes with shotguns is less risk same reward

he

😭

I said the same thing until I saw his tracker

I can see it. mwzera havoc heat raafa Khalil is a solid roster and they should have a lot more synergy than LEV currently does

It's what it's

hfmi is what he's usually called

Again, not winning titles ≠ bad player

Also if v1nny is your only problem with LOUD then how are they the worst Brazilian team of all time in your eyes?

dgzin (duelist)
cauanzin (initiator)
v1nny (flex/igl)
pANcada (controller)
tuyz (sentinel)

LOUD not winning anything last year had nothing to do with Saadhak's igling. In fact, he wasn't even igling that much in Stage 2, it was cauanzin helping fill that role on the maps where he was on Neon. But that aside, though, it's not like you can carry a team with good igling. LOUD were clearly very dysfunctional last year despite their player quality, and even though I love Saadhak, if you can put in a worse igl but have better team synergy, then that's an upgrade. And v1nny already has that; he's worked with pANcada and dgzin before.

Also, how is v1nny one of the worst igls? It almost feels like you're biased against this new team. v1nny brought RED Canids to 2nd in Split 1 and 5-6th in Split 2—which isn't "winning anything" but let's be real... winning tournaments isn't exactly a measure of how good a player or team is, anyway. His stats aren't spectacular, sure, but his agent pool is very good and flexibility is something LOUD are in need of. Plus, as mentioned earlier, he already has synergy with half the team.

Yup

Nobody is overrating them, but regardless, how in the world is a team with pANcada cauanzin tuyz the worst Brazilian roster of all time?

You forget how dysfunctional LOUD were in stage 1 compared to their norm. KRU kinda just ran them down

EDG vs. FPX happened 9 times in the past 20 months

For starters, you have NRG going out 0-2

I agree that LOUD is underrated but I don't agree with your pickems

That's not what I... nvm you do you

That makes sense

But Ukraine is included so that doesn't make sense

Ok why are Syria and Armenia not allowed

People have 100T going out 0-2 because their first game is against aspas and then they play the loser of NRG vs. G2/C9

They ain't even got the same role, brother. It'd be Primmie vs. Kadoom

Thank you
