can't win a championship with those cats.

Kiles just worst cypher ever

VS being the favorite is actually better for Gambit. However, I think they still could find a way to choke somehow and lose the series. Their igl just crumbles under the pressure it seems.

not even close to bunny raze.

not even trying? hard disagree.

They are not even trolling. They just lost the split fair and square. Despite that, they are not going to lose to envy no way.

Acend picked the maps in the first match.

they should do it live, now before vivo-kru

100T could literally be the best team in the world and Sentinels will still roll over them. Mental block.

SEN will not lose to any NA team on an elimination game. They conditioned them. Absolute domination. Not a bad path for SEN actually.

what is the official tiebraker?

What? PRX is absolutely legit. They didn't get destroyed against VS and put a better fight than Acend. They almost won the match against SMB as well. Full respect. Just ignore toxic fans.

LOL, that is beta cam.

Group D has 3 more matches.

riot random behind closed doors

russz is f**king pissed and he is coming for you Acend.

they just brought back him to weaken Nuturn.

Jett is super good. You can absolutely play it on every map. Gambit destroyed Acend with playing Jett on their last match, for example.

SMB will recover after PRX match. I think they will make it to the playoffs. The nerves got to them on their first LAN match. ACE players were just playing more confident. They started 5-0 on both maps. SMB just couldn't get it together.

BR just need to group up their talent in one team.

I hope VK does not end up like SHARKS. They need to play with high confidence again in their next match.

I love it.

this was a definition of a throw. getting 5v1 with a 5hp guy. so many eco round loses.

no it won't kill japan just like it didn't kill turkey. stop this bullshit narrative. early competition will be much better for japan.

pushing over the sage orb, that's just disservice to your own team.

PRX horrible at defense

LOL fanboy

it was the first time watch for me and I absolutely loved it. the skits, reactions, even the tech pauses were awesome.

two slots for BR must be a joke!

Huge respect to him for stepping up to talk about the RIOT's shortcomings about the tournament during his stream today. It seems his team was able to prac first time today (3rd day in Berlin).

Jamppi is the real problem for TL.

the best duo: SMB + Elderflame Vandal

mediocre

awesome

RIOT probably. hour long tech timeouts, sound issues, etc.

FNC lost their edge. #FREEDERKE

what? they lost all scrims against EU teams.

what are the new safety requirements?

great story!

Competitiveness is much better for Turkish teams in the long term. SMB wouldn't even be formed if EMEA were separated. Another example is that previous EMEA playoffs for Iceland forced the TR teams to play more on-meta. Every TR team were using the beta comp back then. EU teams naturally crushed them.

Just look at the Brazilian teams in the Icleand. They were not even playing on-meta on the highest scene. They performed horrible. Vikings were playing Icebox without Viper and shit. At the end, Vikings was forced to a point that I think they didn't even believe they can win the map and played Yoru for trolling on their last map.

what a garbage from RIOT by putting VS, SMB, and Acend in the same group. the third team from NA (envy) has the easiest group as well. from now on, just troll all of the seeding games. they even mixed the BR1 and BR2 teams in the initial announcement. GARBAGE!

what the hell are you talking about? the worst team from NA (envy) has the easiest group. this actually proves you should never take a seeding game seriously.

I think seeding should be based on iceland results. Below are my predictions for groups. Each seed is ordered as well.

1st seed: NA1, EMEA1, KR1, EMEA2 (Sentinels, Gambit, VS, SMB)

2nd seed: NA2, EMEA3, NA3, BR1 (100T, Acend, Envy, Vivo Keyd)

3rd seed: EMEA4, KR2, LATAM1, SEA1 (G2, F4Q, KRU, Bren)

4th seed: JP1, SEA2, BR2, JP2 (ZETA, Paper Rex, Havan Liberty, CR)

Based on these seeds, groups are distributed like below.

1st group: Sentinels, Vivo Keyd, G2, CR

2nd group: VS, Acend, KRU, Paper Rex

3rd group: SMB, 100T, Bren, ZETA

4th group: Gambit, Envy, F4Q, Havan Liberty
