prx arent guarenteed top 2

https://liquipedia.net/valorant/VCT/2024/Champions/Qualification

as far as I know its only PUBG and Apex that have some kind of playerbase, no real tac fps like CS

itll take a while, pc fps games arent very popular other than valorant so give it a couple years and theyll probably be coming up to the same level korea is right now

same time as current apac matches, think thats 9am

DFM ascent is very legit, if they got any other map then most likely 2-0

marvel has always been slop ever since they tried to integrate it all into the same universe

I think I would rather re-watch the entirety of the bottom 3 china team matches this year than watch another 3 episodes of mha, that shit is the same level as zom 100 for me and zom 100 is fucking tragically shit

you do realise there has been innovation in manga specifically for 80 years straight?
not every anime is one piece or naruto or mha or some other shounen, there is an insane variety and calling it like marvel is crazy

split, haven and sunset

omen/clove and sova/gekko

if i have to play sentinel then kj

-chron is certainly an opinion

navi were actually good back then

First year I havent followed it at all so how are teams looking? Any stand out players that weren't crazy last year?

I hear a lot of people say its really hit or miss but I wanna give it a few episodes some time

I hear a lot good about it definitely adding it to my list

Odd Taxi and Golden Kamuy I keep forgetting about but definitely want to watch Odd Taxi soon, i really liked most of season 1 of To Your Eternity but it got very same-y so never watched season 2, heard so much about Devilman Crybaby and should check it out and will check out Mawaru Penguindrum, thanks

you ever heard of sliggy?

cs hasnt hit the same for me since the end of the astralis era

they have the highest peaks and the lowest lows imo, that bottom 4 are rough

japanese valorant is a big enough region with enough fans to where they shouldnt be doomed, for the next couple (2-4 years) it might look at the same level it is now but then the rising talent should start coming in, kind of like what is happening in korea rn

We have a month and a half of regular VCT then a 6 month off-season again :)))

as much as I like the legacy players on ZETA, that team needs blown up

ever since he signed for SEN, he only reacts to SEN games

zeta need a coach for their coaches

mako is the complete opposite playstyle tho

just 2 styles that dont mix imo

watching an episode a day of pluto rn and god damn episode 1 was incredible

Currently trudging through punk hazard to get to the good arcs of post time skip

I was thinking of watching it but its a bit long + im not that big of a comedy fan

currently reading dorohedoro actually, thought the cgi would be bad but when I got a couple volumes in I looked at the anime and it wasnt that bad

I love norse mythology but god damn I did not like this anime lmao

purely looking at them vs TL, they looked like a complete team finally

2-OD LAST WEEK BY FREAKING BBL

gotta put some respect on BBL

tbf TL look very much improved, kinda like how they should've looked coming out of Apeks

to me they were not rated as a teamwho could make it to an international in americas (maybe due to so many teams underperforming in americas tho)

KC, 100T, RRQ

johnqt is the one that said he's EMEA tho

20

BEP BEP BEP BEP

MrFalin easily better than Ange1, d4v41 has been consistently a top 3 flex for 3 years now not having him top 5 is fucking wild, tenz (even though he only plays omen) has been significantly better than mindfreak, an arguement for valyn can easily be made, same with trent, why is crashies there, benjyfishy's peak is higher than nats, sacy is not a top 5 initiator, zekken > yay

if you think asuna is inconsistent then having takas as the best in M8 when natank is there is wild

I cant confidently say anyone else is on the same level as him on the op

only one that is really close purely on op skills is KK

woot has said so many times he doesnt like duelist tho, he would never do that

+cNed op is easily best in the world

why would you even want to get rid of cNed in the first place?

yetujey and qRaxs are also highly rated but to me MrFalin and AtaKaptan dont get enough credit

MrFalin

cloud calling was genuinely very impressive as well as keeping his stats as they were before

the meta is very aggressive compared to last year which was based around cutting the map into sections with viper and skye flashing for info, which made each game a battle of the igls mainly

now its double flash or double duelist which is so much more aggressive and less info based, big brain igls arent as important rn because of that

so few selfless duelists nowadays

every top team has a selfless duelist thats just a lie lmao
