i'm trying to think of it from the perspective of teams that NEED to drop a player, teams that had disappointing performances at kickoff. teams like MIBR made a deep run and were inches away from bangkok. same with LEV and KRU, not strong enough to make top 3 but not bottom of the barrel. that's why i imagine it's boostio or xeppaa due to lackluster performances

i didn't think to clip, and i was watching on mobile and clips are so bugged, but when the vod is up tomorrow morning i'll clip it and leave the link here

i managed to go back in chat and take a ss of the chat when he was talking about it, that's about as much as i can find right now lmao

on zander's stream, he said 5 gifted subs and he would give a hint to a player getting dropped from america's. i gifted 5, and he gave a couple of hints to chat

1.) they play flash initiator, but hinted that they could play other agents, which narrows it down pretty far
2.) they played in vct last year as well, which rules out the rookies
3.) he's not a former teammate of zander's, which rules out players like zellsis
edit for 4.) also said they have no master's trophies
my odds are on xeppaa and boostio, but im curious what you guys think as well

are you smoking crack? he's the primary senti, izu occasionally flexes to senti

this is actually so accurate. whenever they have to freestyle it during rounds, like when they burned both timeouts in the first half of abyss, they look completely jumbled, and the teamplay that leaf's harps on just dissolves. if they fix their mid-rounding and valyn implements some new off-the-wall plays during their mid-rounding, there's an extremely high chance they win at least one international this year, at least a higher chance than it is currently

i didn't "start" anything. you came to my thread to shit on my team, so i returned the favor, and THEN you turned to personal insults. but oh yeah, i got destroyed, currently quivering in my boots over your almighty intelligence...your rage bait is truly top tier, unlike your team

i like watching good valorant, SEN just happens to be my favorite team. im not a braindead copium-huffing 12 year old like most of them, so i dont understand how my message about a coach gets construed as "weak" or anything like that

this is NOT the pissing contest you think it is LMAO. idk who "we" is, but one of our teams is going to yet another international while your team is watching from the couch again. didn't know i met the macho man of VLR while putting a wholesome message about my team's coach, yet here we are

i can smell your lack of testosterone from here

i couldn't care less about your flair, navi will always be a bottom tier team in a bottom tier region

but since you mention it, i've been a fan of SEN since 2022, haven't ever made a VLR account before today, so i'll go ahead and put on the flair for you:)

top 10 clips taken out of context

your team won 2 maps in kickoff, hiro can't save your shit team

say what you want about SEN, but jesus christ kaplan knows how to extract as much as possible out of his players. he's the perfect balance between a coach who wants his players to feel good and coaches that are on their ass about their mistakes. love hearing him be real about the team but also giving them praise when they're putting belt to ass like today

i think the nerves are officially gone for sen lmaooo

pretty small sample size since i just started playing comp this act, rank reset hit decently hard, but just wanted to see if the valorant stat gurus could point out anything i could do better or any trends they notice across the last act or two. thanks in advance:)

currently a semi-flex player. spent majority of the last two years playing duelist but decided that for this act, i want to play as much as possibly on every role and keep it as balanced as possible. asc 1 is the goal.

it always amazes me how people have such high hs% but a lower k/d. not a bad thing at all, but i feel like if you have a hs% above 30 you should have a positive k/d, no? assuming you have good positioning and you're taking conscious fights according to your role
