I know. But we can't do anything about it ultimately it's up to them to figure out when to give their players a break.

Prime? EDG all the way.
Right now? SEN very likely.

I think the work culture there is just "go practice"

They're looking great tbh. Maybe even better than DRX and I think they can definitely go toe-to-toe with PRX.

Yeah.

Tbh I wanted them to just lose to Fancy so they can rest earlier but ig they don't want to disappoint the fans

I mean, without Sayf one could definitely argue that their fragging prowess has decreased quite a bit but I have trust in the new team members.

Absolutely! I think they put up a good fight against T1 and I think that's good considering how T1 have been playing

I see... that's unfortunate. Betting sounds tough. Good luck in the future.

I apologize. I'm not very good with betting terms and its culture so I don't know what the numbers and symbols mean. I'm not a very good reader, so I apologize for the mistake. But then aren't you happy that EDG's winning? You get money and stuff.

They're pretty good.

Look, I understand your grievances but you can't be serious! Crying with baseless accusations after the shitty decision you made comes to bite you in the ass. (I'm assuming you bet on Fancy)

Bro their bad performance is obviously due to burnout. Look at their faces. Look at their celebrations (or lack of) after winning a round. Are you even watching the match?

Betting at all in a game like Valorant!

So you have to come up with an excuse?

Horrible guess.

You too my dear yungbasel.

Goated LyCan52. Thank you.

Thank you. Based flair btw you don't see DSYRE fans everyday. ⭐

I know, but as a fan I can only have hope even if it is false.

I have some trust in Emil, I trust that he knows the stakes and will adjust to fan expectations accordingly.

Thank you. TL doesn't come before being a decent human being anyways.

There are people who do that? What a ghastly thing to do.

I'm afraid I don't understand. English isn't my native language and I'm sorry if I can't interpret your comments the way you intend for them to be. I don't recall ever stating that we want to play a "good guy", and I don't recall getting "shit on" either. It was a good series.

It's not like T1 will come to EMEA to beat us now is it?🤣

I think chances are that we 2-0 EDG because they're tired and all that but we shall see.

Regardless of the result in offseason, I have no doubts that we are going to cook this season.

That he did! I'm not trying to downplay him at all, he played amazingly; I'm just trying to give more credit to the team as a whole because holy moly did they all look great. Even carpe with that sheriff ace!

Thank you for the compliment! I get that a lot from my friends and it's just a trait I've assimilated at this point.

I understand, but I think we can make more civilized choices when choosing what we say/do to increase the fun/hype. I think instead of attacking the opposing team/region, we could just say encouraging things for our team. For example, instead of having "SHITMEA fans come", I think we could have more "Let's go T1" or "NT Liquid"

I try.

You're a W. <3

Some people are like that. The most I can do is to not be like those people.

I mean, while I am an EMEA fan and a Team Liquid fan, I am a Valorant fan first, so regardless of the team succeeding, even if it's my team winning, I will never flame the other team. I play Valorant, and I've lost many times. I've also encountered countless toxic players, and I know how disheartening it is to recieve negative feedback from other people. Which is why, I would never say anything remotely close to something like "LMAO EZ ASSIFIC". I know there are people like that, but I swear on my bloodline that I will never say anything toxic.

EMEA's 2nd best team TL lost to a Tier 1 APAC team... Rossy just happens to be a player on that team...

No shot you're saying that after watching them beat both EDG and TL...

Calm down it was a good series.

If this actually happens then I will break my pledge to TL and start supporting another team.

Haha, yeah they're definitely not having a great time but considering that T1 is goated now I can't really complain much.

I think that's obvious, but regardless, they're still quite the solid team. NAVI have always been a question mark tbh. On paper they should be great but they've just never done as well as they're expected to.

I understand. My opinion isn't always correct and my inherent EMEA bias can't always be removed from anything I do. Perhaps you're right, and I do concede that I don't watch enough T2 APAC, so my judgement on it isn't very well-founded.

1. SEN
2. PRX
3. T1
4. TL
5. DRX
6. EDG
7. FS
8. FCY

I'm not sure.. I'd place them 4th behind T1 and in front of DRX

Nice try ig.

It's off season it's okay. (welcome to my copium lab)

In my opinion:

1. EMEA (Look at Fnatic, Liquid, etc)
2. Americas (Sentinels look good, so does Lev to an extent.)
3. APAC (T1 looks goods so far. I don't know if either PRX or DRX is taking off season seriously.)
4. Americas T2 (I've seen some good stuff out of M80 and G2 and those other teams)
5. EMEA T2
6. APAC T2
   China (teams unannounced)
   China T2 (teams unannounced)

I mean, they're both interesting countries so ig it makes sense.

TL looks pretty good, but I'd prefer to see them doing much better tbh considering that they're a team expected to challenge for EMEA title.

I guess not all Chinese people support China huh?

Thank you Zahk. I'm glad all my years spent taking creative writing class hasn't been a waste.
