I think it's pretty fair. I would've gone with a 2-1 TE win but I can also see TEC taking this series.

TBD right now, but I can't imagine BLG winning this one.

Let bili cook

Thank you Brian! I've been swamped with schoolwork so I haven't had the opportunity to review some VODs
and do the other things to make one of these.

Factual!

Wolves. The physics teacher at my school got injured during an encounter with one and as far as I'm aware those are the only "dangerous" animal around here. There's also a bunch of nutria around here but they don't do much.

I might be able to visit London come May, and I'll make sure to try out some of the local food should I get the opportunity to.

Playing it safe

I try to be one. Cheers!

Great analysis DaDoar, I think what you're saying makes a lot of sense and it's great insight for anyone looking to understand the current and past state of Redgar.

I agree. Edward really wasn't all too impressive yesterday.

What's wrong with Subreezy being back? He seems like an awfully nice chap.

Great series today and I'm glad you were able to replicate that greatness in the form of this very well-written article. Good job Davis!

Won't be able to do a full preview but I think Trace should 2-0 comfortably here.

R9 forever

There's always autumn🐐

I can't remember anymore

Wolves are demolishing my EDG 2-0 pred rn but I am quite pleased with how the other two series went.

KK frequents initiator on Bind, but the rest of the role switches are pretty strange.

Thank you! I try my best but please don't credit me if you win your bets.

Decent recovery from JDG but it's going to take a lot more to convince me that they're still on the same level as Rare Atom. NOVA blew my expectations out of the water and after matchday 1 there was just no chance that they wouldn't break in TYLOOs knees.

I mean, that's what makes it so interesting no? The potential upsets, the potential cinderella storylines, all those shebangs. Ig it's in my nature to try to predict these things but you're absolutely correct.

No, I think it was boring last year but rather entertaining this year.

EMEA's gotten much more entertaining

EG 2-1 G2

EG 15-13
G2 13-11
EG 13-9

Yeah, EMEA looks so much better than they did last year.

I think EMEA looks great right now, even Team Heretics look like they can compete in a major. As for EDG, it all depends on how they're doing. If they play like they did during the off season, GENG could probably stick several forks into them and set them alight; but if EDG is playing like they did at Tokyo then EDG should probably win. Oh well, we'll see how EMEA playoffs turn out and how EDG is very soon!

EMEA actually looks great this year, I don't think GENG could beat the 2nd seed coming out of EMEA.

Against the 2nd CN seed

Yeah I really thought a team was going to sign him.

Should've picked up Zero1

Yes

Yeah, but yours still look better than the majority of people's.

TYLOO just looked so much less convincing.

JDG 2-1 TEC?

Absolutely. They definitely need some more time to get used to someone who isn't yoman calling.

🫵🐐🫰

He'll probably stick to the Sova.

Ninebody past his prime, LuoK1ng past his prime, ICEKING past his prime, AAK has never been very convincing, hfmi can't carry an entire team :(

I hope they prove me wrong.

I disagree. I prefer Valorant and I think it is better than cs2.

Yeah, can't wait for LOUD-Lev 🤩

They played some great series today.

I mean, it really can go both ways tbh, I think there's just as good of a chance of TE taking this 2-1. But yeah, the players you listed are pretty cracked in terms of aim.

Holy cow Zerphyr you might've actually done it.

They put a smile on my face.

I'm alright, how about you?

CN Kickoff Group B: Titan Esport Club vs DRG

DRG Brief Information: Played quite well against AG, especially on Ascent. Very entertaining gameplay and vo0kashu and TvirusLuke’s aiming abilities were just wonderful to watch. nizhaoTZH cooked. As expected from Ascension winners, I hope they go on to do great things.

TEC Brief Information: Really sat JDG down in a chair and wheeled them into the retirement home. Rb was great and Abo was amazing. LockM and the rest also put in delightful performances. TEC might become a heavyweight in the Chinese region.

DRG Players to Watch: vo0kashu, TvirusLuke, nizhaoTZH

TEC Players to Watch: All of them.

Prediction: I like TEC but I think that if DRG replicates their performance against AG it might very well turn out to be a 2-1 win.

I read some fun forums and wanted to participate in the community.
