True

After the 1thieves game he faded into obscurity.

This is what's most depressing about valulrant. People don't give a fuck about the quality of play (and this goes beyond these two teams), they only care about clout, because they're kids.

Correct

G2shahzam and babysasuke both have 0 stars but are also nolifers with 1000 posts a day.

fully expected SEN player behaviour

sutecas fell off the face of the earth, and he was actually good

it's over buddy, admit defeat and wait for your health to run out

Do the test. Go on YouTube, rewind back to the start. In the meanwhile don't open vlr and don't get spoiled.

Is it because you have an army of 13yo tenz fans that are ready to cry to death for riot?

I am. I'm seeing NaVi and Fnatic (semifinalist and winner, who took a big dump on all of America's) be at the top of the league. How unexpected.

This site is a microcosm of everything related to valorant. It's all dogshit low quality, kids with low standards all over the world consoom, then live off of region-baiting, the end.

And how did you come up with that?

How is fnatic weaker? They've dropped one map since lock\in, playing with a sub

Kekw

Oh wow, one group stage win. This team was heralded as the best team itw before lock//in so y'all need a reality check

rito small indie company

imo they've never beaten ANYBODY world class since 2021. They only fluked a win against 2022 fnatic (which then turned into an absolute stomp), then they struggled against EDG and FUT and got humiliated by fnc (this time it was more acceptable than 2022). In the league they've only beaten the bottom two teams.

imo this roster's firepower is extremely overrated and that's the very reason it will never improve, because they won't drop the right pieces, because those pieces are overrated in public opinion.

what sad_gambit_fan said

show me the proof that they can "compete against anyone"

lmfaooooo

Come back in another month after the playoffs

Tsack is getting old..

Leaf was Max tier4 in cs

Yeah, they showed that when they left during Fnatic's celebration.

I conclusion, Brazilians do not care about the game/eSports in general. They're just nationalistic.

I bet you would pack an arena if a Brazilian was in a fart competition's grand final.

Tldr: pay attention to the game, not the flags

Do Brazilians enjoy anything other than nationalism?

1 example vs 5000000.
Also, wasn't T1 the best team in the world at the start of the game? And brax hadn't even played competitive for 6 years? Embarrassing

Yes, crashies was about to be a major champion lmfao.

m0nesy at 16 in G2 btw. Most of the elite players right were already in tier1 by that age. Just be realistic and tell yourself the truth, brother, they wouldn't have amounted to anything.

I really can't fathom how fnatic has so many haters. Just sore losers.

Fkn hypocrites

He should start streaming more and making cringe content on YouTube for 13yos. I'm sure then, people will find many excuses for him.

He literally picked the 11th and 12th team. Instead of comparing the top 10 to the top 10. That's cherry picking.

At least they're fnatic tier1 rejects. Not Gold2 and Giants tier2 rejects.

i literally can't believe these people. All it takes is to search their favourite val pro's HLTV profile, find them bottomfragging in tier20 and realize this simple, simple truth.

He went from top3 finish in Valorant major to getting grouped every CS major.

yes ofc. having clowns and streamers in the top leagues instead of the actually better teams has nothing to do with competitive integrity.

oh wow, one match where they weren't competitive VS 6 maps in a row (and probably the entire season)

OGLU would literally shit on KC btw.

BIG lost 3 of their games 2-1
SMB was dogshit and that's literally why they weren't there the next season <3 that's the magic of relegation
You're proving my point

Feetas

The problem is that without CIS (thanks riot politics) and with these complete garbage VCLs in EMEA the tier2 scene is absolutely dead. There are three teams, acend/apeks/ff who are the remnants of what could've been a prospering EMEA scene, but no more. Valorant is not as established to keep a tier2 scene like that alive, it's not as popular as league nor is does it have grass roots.

After this year, EMEA tier2 will completely die. And in two years time, all of EMEA will be dead because of that, because there won't be any talent to pick up from tier2 (like BDS did). Because no tier2 talent wants to waste his time waiting in the shadows while frauds like mixwell and newzera get the benefits. And the orgs in tier2 will not pay 2/3 years worth of wages with no returns (because polaris has like 300 viewers) in the hope that they can clinch that one final spot.

Soon, all of tier2 EMEA will be orgless. After that, it's going to be an OWL incident, and it's over for EMEA. And that's just EMEA, I have no idea about other scenes.

idk about pacific but Acend, Apeks and FireFlux all deserve to be in franchising more than KC, TH and BBL.

THIS. Optic and XSET. They were the best NA teams by far. But they lost the popularity contest smh

I knew I'd find you here. You were the main person that kept advocating about franchising and how "it wouldn't kill competitive integrity".

If you kick TH and KC you'd have to kick KOI and BBL as well because they perform just as bad. It would never happen, the bad press would be worse than keeping these shit squads here. And even if they do eventually kick them, it will be a year or two AFTER they've already ruined the competition. Imagine having to wait 2 years for any competitive integrity.

Why? None of these teams have any incentive to improve.

TH is there too.

I'm not putting BBL there because they're actually ambitious and they can't use Elite yet.

give me one team out of the ones i posted that got rolled over as hard as heretics and KC, i'll wait.
