they know ball

breach on ascent? yeah this is saadhak

extremely common vlr podcast W

yes

yep. one year contract + renewal or relegation based on performance

tbh they were very innocent on that one

not their intention but the set up is crazy

ok

TSM vs Rankers VCNA S1 swiss stage map two bind. tell me that wasn't a shitshow of a match

NA does have this problem lol

i think this either is LATAM year or 2G wins it again if they manage to get playoffs. BR have one great team that might win (SCCP) but the other teams at the same level are academy teams so we don't have much of a shot (im expecting Red Canids to get better over the year tho). NA is getting better but they're worse than BR atm

if they're winning every scrim they're very likely to be dogshit. i thought we learned this lesson by now

emea when they finally build an actual balanced region with plenty of potential international-level teams

yeah ur right but he was def not on the kicklist priorities lol no reason for this change

bro what is happening with the teams seriously

he might be their best player and they do this lol
igl now apparently is minny (?)

bro what the fuck are you doing lmaoooo why are you dropping robbie of all players for KAMYK
why are the emea teams doing this is everyone suddenly braindead? the region had such a promising start and theyre just crashing out now

Sorry but the greatest album of all time is The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails nice try tho

wdym no one can challenge them. mibr gc is literally top 2 itw

went after the vlr page for him and saw the flag of the glorious nation of latvia ardiis will be avenged

i dont listen to a lot of rap but it has a very specific vibe and the lyricism is very cool

also tyler is goated fuck off

tbh playoffs look better than whatever was happening on groupstage

liazzi is not their best player

not really tho
if anything i think winning every single scrim is a pretty bad sign

any lucid person knew BR shot is at corinthians

hes playing brim and astra on vitality brother what the fuck are you talking about

what the fuck? lmao

pretty reasonable picks, but kru is winning vs eg and mibr is winning vs C9

so you take "played really good last year" as a factor for trexx but for americas initiators you only count "currently"?

edit: sorry thought you were replying for my post mb

when was he top 5 initiator itw lol

why are people beating your ass for this
trexx was never top 5 in the world lol
he's a good player who was always promising if he could find the right team but he was not there yet

second person to say that btw. def theres some truth to it

i agree format is shit but i think orgs also have a pretty dumb way of handling it. for instance, apparently natank had some problems but the team was like "he can stay we can work on that" but management just really wanted him out. like i understand some things happen behind the scenes but some decisions just feel so rushed and unnecessary

i think split 2 reset the scores so a bad split 1 dont really influence on split 2 results. also 8 playoff spots give pretty much room for mistakes and natural evolution. so there's really not that much need for immediate results

we? like winning eleven? whats we?

i never heard of that happening before kinda funny
madrid moment

subir o time do gc pro Tier 2 como Mibr Academy valeria mais a pena que esse time de bagre e lavagem de dinheiro

how is that supposed to make me feel

how can a club be so small

i mean mibr gc team as mibr academy

thats crazy like why are you investing on an academy team if it is that bad...gc team would unironically be better

5-0 in games
10-2 in maps
Actual organized team with very good talent
Yep corinthians is winning ascension

i agree that format is trash and they needed to play more but i also think that they could use the time to figure out things more instead of already taking out players not even six matches into the year

i mean i would wait for split 1 at least. most teams havent even played more than 6 matches in the year. maybe some just need more time

i think it can reach a balance. loud 22 tried inserting chamber on maps but it didnt work so they just went without it. but still used him on some maps because he was too broken

loud 24 refused to use gekko and just got fucked

they benched kamyk

some rumours going around about trexx being benched but idk if its trustworthy

im not really into china so thanks for the input

not talking about sayonara but trexx (i know some people said its bait but the comments seems to be kinda serious so idk just taking as a rumour)

yep forgot about them too

yeah but like. wait for split 1 at least? try inside workarounds first? you didnt predict that issues before on trials and scouting?
idk just seems like lack of planning
