Champs is the highlight of the year because its the most money and its the end of the competitive season with loads of advertisement compared to Madrid/Shanghai, other than that it's not anymore special than a regular international. SEN not making every international for me brings them down, for me GenG is above any team this year because they made every international + every grand final possible, other than champs. While SEN while winning KickOff and Madrid (Madrid ending in March), struggled heavily against similiar skilled teams in regular season, didnt make stage 1 playoffs, lost 1st game in stage 2 playoffs and made Champs based on a win vs 100T in April (3-4 months before champs) due to h2h rules iirc. For sure a good year especially if they win Champs aswell, but i value consistency over highs and Gen.G have been more consistent

Gen.G is the best team this year no matter what happens imo, reached every possible GF other than Champions ofc. Sentinels year got ruined between Madrid and Champions, impressive if they win but cant be the best team this year if you dont reach all internationals imo.

Boaster gets more hate because he's the face of Fnatic and almost always have a hard time getting kills, hard to get kills when you have the fire power in the other 4 but other team have similiar fire power and their igls do more work in the kill column, its unfortunate but not sustainable to win when a player consistently have a hard time fragging. Argueable the best igl itw when it comes to strats and mid round but sometimes his inability to frag might let the team down, Derke, Alfa and Chronicle cannot always pick up the slack.

If they win i'm calling the rig

bet365

Nukkye in mid is crazy

I believe Turtle Troop has to lose, if they do FaZe is through since FaZe have h2h against both TT and Shopify

He didnt accuse a champion winning team of cheating, he didnt accuse anyone actually, he said that he thought there was noway he didnt tell them because they just scrimmed TBK and LOUD was their next opponent in the tournament and there 2 players from both teams are calmly speaking after scrims. If you see that while not knowing they are friends you would probably think something similiar.

Yeah, he said that he was thinking that theres no way he didnt show them, that was his thoughts as he just scrimmed them and then he sees a player of theirs talking with their next opponents. Very dumb things to say on stream with no proof but he just said his thoughts, he never said they did it 200% he just said his thoughts.

He's won a championship on valorant while you sit and watch him + hate on vlr, just saying.

all Ardiis was doing was speculating, he also said ''im not saying they did it'' multiple times. If you were supposed to play a team in a few days then scrimmed another team, then you see a player from the team you scrimmed talk with one of the guys from the team you're supposed to play you'll probably start thinking aswell. Would've probably been different if Ardiis knew they were friends but i doubt he checked tier 2 brazil teammates

Why care so much about Ardiis and his words and what people say about brazilians leaving after LOUD lost?

I dont hate him, everyone choose their own path, I just dont get how he thinks a team will pick him up for comp play when he hasnt played a single tourney on a team for almost a year now, he doesnt see himself as a streamer yet thinks a team will pick him up as something else when he's only been streaming for 10 months and not played in a single T2 tournament. Maybe he thought he would get more offers since he ''left'' a big org idk.

yes they are, but its still an american desk imo. European desk for me would be tom, yinsu, ryan etc. The ''mood'' of the desks are different

Its a great desk, their jokes and segments just makes me cringe so hard

why does he have to say ''gg u were amazing omg best team'' NOTHING in his tweet is disrespectful, he just said like it is, they didnt play good enough to win today. That doesnt mean that DRX is shit, it doesnt mean that drx wouldnt have won if they were playing good in their eyes, it doesnt mean anything other than that fpx didnt play good enough,

Might be the biggest choke i've seen, 11-8 lead on icebox and 9-3 lead on haven...

Optic vs LOUD in Upper final.
FPX vs the team they lost to in groups in lower round 2.
Potentially EMEA vs EMEA for top 3.
Potentially EMEA vs NA for GF spot.
What script will win?

Lone turkish player in the tournament infront of probably 60% if not more turkish fans rooting for him and even more on twitch + already being a part of fnatic and only 2nd LAN ever, not surprising he might not play upto expectations

They are very good but they've now won 8/8 pistols this tournament yet they played liquid 13-10 in both maps and 13-8 and 13-11 vs prx. Scared to see how it goes if or when they lose a pistol

Didnt soniqs move 5 australians to NA without any issues?

Because Leo and Sayf are nuts

Bleed choked so hard

VRL games look better than this, you cant tell me that the first half was showing off great valorant?, consistently losing man advantages to ecos, consistently dying holding util, missing lineups, wasting ults for no reason

10 rounds in and this is the worst game of valorant i've ever watched

EMEA : FNC, GUILD, FPX
NA : OpTic, XSET
BR : LOUD
LATAM : KRU
BR/LATAM : Fusion
KR : DRX
JP : ZETA
APAC : PRX, Bleed (Bleed more of a hopium)

Bonkar probably. Sadly.
