ketchup is putrid

CS2 is fun and I have been playing it. Valorant is fun and I have been playing it

s0m and FNS streams for gameplay
sliggy for watch parties and tarik if sliggy isnt streaming them
TMV and sliggy as well for analyst stuff

fuck around in customs is the way ive always learned lineups, find something you want to dart and look for somewhere that isnt stupid to dart from

helps people not know the lineup youre throwing, especially in immo+ when people know the most common darts on each map

you should also know the standard darts like the haven c dart, ascent b dart etc. but I feel finding your own lets you remember them easier

• woohoojin has a really good video on ascent darts that he covered with cavern, watch it

surely this man gets picked up by another org

KC BabyJ? He would fit right in

they should definitely worry, they arent guaranteed a spot and it is super likely at least 1 or 2 wont be in tier 1 next year like they should be + they will have to split up if they arent allowed to compete under another org, which is even worse wince the core has been together for a very long time now

qw1 was more expected than surprising imo

makes me happy to see the level of support he's always giving out, gotta love the guy

shes ok defence + the wall is pretty good

her nade dogshit at best

her trips and completely useless on attack unless the spike goes down (which she cant help to do AT ALL)

her ult could be good ig, strong in 1v1 but super situational

keznit and whzy is crazy recency bias + nukkye doesnt even play duelist anymore

cauanzin is good and can solo carry maps but he can be a little inconsistent compared to c0m and leo

2020: TenZ
2021: cNed
2022: Yay
2023: FNC Alfajer / FNC Leo / EG Demon1 (kind of torn between the 3 of them, alfa and leo have been insane but demon1 has been the best newcomer we have seen and had an insane rise to winning champs)

What is the general consensus so far? I've only really seen sliggy and bacon talking about it and they seem pretty positive about it

devs probably think abilities are too strong in general at the moment, especially with teams starting to farm orbs to have 3+ ults a half (just look at c0m)

I wanna see the C0M vs Leo battle, top 2 sovas in the world would be interesting

it'll be harder with more eyes on them but they could easily still be a very strong team that would be top contenders for international tournaments

its too good man, too smart

are we expecting changes?

Id like to see him and mistic playing together because I feel mistic used to have the same kind of problem but he was tearing up tier 2 emea when he moved down a bit and got insane confidence and most likely will be back to tier 1 this year

once the players got confidence they all were able to show how good they are, getting ethan while no other teams took him was actually insane

after his year he probably wont be in TL this year but I am really hoping he takes a top team in tier 2 to build confidence again because he can have some of the best multikill rounds

at least we will get more sideshow reactions :)

fuck it, let scream igl navi, surely that will end well

BcJ was super solid tho, always could be relied on

leo or c0m for sova but I would put cauanzin in the skye catagory + kangkang as gekko

engh more valorant experience but happy is a goat of french cs, would want to see happy tbh

subs might not be a thing in the new system with the affiliate team thing

ardiis was actually willing to flex to any role through his whole valorant career so im coping with that

• ardiis

FPX nostalgia

I want to see him move onto a main roster spot somewhere, would really like to see him on PRX especially

Who do you guys want to win this match?

NA seems to have a lot of solid sova/viper players which is kind of missed in other regions so I would like to see some of them explore that

fnatic stopped innovating like they used to do a lot which made them too predictable imo

Now with most teams other than EG (most likely no changes) are done with the year, who do we expect could be brought up from tier 2

Was thinking verno, eeiu, zander, nismo, maybe koala, aproto, bdog, nature and maybe gmd to a french team like KC

not sure who I missed but definitely missed some that have a good chance of coming up to franchising

I would cry if I had to play paladins too tbf

saadhak is goated tho

he didnt miss a kill with a sova ult for multiple matches at the start of the tournament, for sure the best sova ult user

only agent he has a +1 rating with in the last 3 months is jett

no harm I like cned but he is fucked with these changes

theyre really good at capitalizing on mistakes and c0m is so fucking rock solid as a player its insane

ngl I wanna see ardiis back on sova like the good old g2 days

what players are you expecting to fall and what players are you expecting to show up again

yay is going to be the most wanted player again by FAR imo
rip cned
also really interested to see who something starts playing as his main agent or if he will somehow still make jett work

As much as I like fnatic I really wanna see PRX finally get an international win before jinggg takes his military service

2023 MVP: Alfa
COACH OF THE YEAR: alecks (saved PRX from what we seen at LOCK//IN)
ROOKIE OF THE YEAR: something

op is in a great place, any change could make way too strong

Mine has to be TLOZ: Wind Waker so much nostalgia from when I used to play this game at my cousins house until I was able to get a gamecube for myself

only thing that worries me about less is his reputation within the team and the arguments he has

otherwise, he is up there with alfa as the 2 best sentinel players in the word

Metal Hellslinger

FNC fans

half of them just support the best team in EMEA and will switch when FNC aren't the best team in EMEA anymore

rip soulcas

maybe elevation based map, bomb sites on top of each other like nuke
