WTF ARE GENG SMOKING WHY TAKING SO LONG

BRO SEN GOT SPLIT WTF ARE GENG smoking

DRX is dead GenG is my new besto frendo

this literally happened with EG fracture. Sen split is literally the same thing, they are good at it, and teams ought to respect it or they are gonna start out 0-1 in the series

Sen's fundamentals on Split are wayy too good for GenG to bulldoze through with double duelist. the no senti on attack means Sen's retake potential is really strong as GenG have to hold for JohnQT's flanks

and on defense they have to get info using players, meaning that Sen's default playstyle is really strong in the midround

surely GenG respect sen split at this point no?

idk, to me icebox is more of an awping jett map than ascent, the double flash comp didn't get much value against Loud, but ig its bc of double wall, its tough to say for sure

i think Lotus is really fucking good for Sen. John's midrounding from A to B and their C control is wayy better than GenG, the only way GenG win is if they can shut down sen's attacking A control
and in the second map Sunset, on attack they have to fight up on A link, to prevent sen's set retakes from happeneing,
on Sunset defense they have to control the 1 way on A main. we saw how Heretics stuffed out Sen's attack by maintaining control of that lane for the first minute, which made Sen's attacking side difficult

SEN have to ban either icebox or breeze, no? those are the maps where jett can literally take over the game, and we know that zekken's jett isn't at that level yet
i honestly think SEN are more likely to let ascent go thru than either of those no?

bro doesn't know what a zero sum game means...

you do realize valorant isn't a zero sum game yeah, and that you just have to be marginally better than your opps to take matches.
im 100% certain that sacy intimidated less into performing poorly and thats why they won
SEN simply play safe fundamental valo based on their coach's gameplan and wait for their opps to make mistakes
even with zekken not fragging out they won

SEN play for retake, if loud burn too much util on the exec SEN win out after pistol no?

fell off in 2023 my korean goat isn't at the top level anymore ;-;

who else would you propose then?

his clutch vs NRG in lock in was nice asf

this guy cauanzin is the best breach in the world no? only chronicle comes close no?

mako has been top 3 controller for 3 years, karon is in his rookie year, lets see what the future holds b4 comparing the two

thank god GENG have 5 players today, theres a real chance they can go to uppers

i get that but we said guard would be middle of the pack in franchising once they ascended but rn they are looking bottom 2 no?
im afraid m80 might fall into the same trap - getting to ascension, qualifying, trying to stick together in franchise, roster changes when stuff doesnt work out, end up bottom

100T asuna -> nismo
this team unironically can make shanghai if Lev dont fix their shit with tex

tokyo vice is really good, havent watched shogun but it looks promising,

Lain is overrated imo, I think its OK as a psych thriller/neo internet anime, but imo Steins;gate dominates that category and just outclasses it ngl

i pray for sick's comeback

C - its a jett smoke that can muffle audio
Q - like a kayo knife, disrupts abilities
E - she has a respawn point that she can go back to if she dies/takes damage, if someone else brings her back if im understanding this correctly
(think gekko orb then u gotta carry her back?)
X ulti - super super ultra top secret, even my hackers cant figure this one out

where theres a goal theres a whole

id like to see him with a competent team that doesn't need him to clutch every other round

i didnt include 2021 bc its too new of a game and smokes wasn't as well developed back then

i deadass don't see sh1n mentioned for top smokes at this point in 2024, dude is insanely good in placing smokes in postplants/ outside of set execs. his smoke placement is just as good as mako's (in prime form) and hes a shooter as well

imo he's a tier below (think angel, mazino, atakaptan, haodong) not really world class smokes, if he had to pick up slack on another, worse team idt he would perform as well

FRIEREN

not flex who play smokes

and they still beating EU's ass

they are humble, cope harder. these guys are the golden kids of pro vabolanrt

bro's tight bc EMEA team got eliminated. sucks to suck :s

he said sowwy in the post match conference

GGs guys, i think it was an experience diff, PRX have choked too many finals to choke in the group stage at this point. Good experience for the young guys, gl in the future for em

i mean if we draw the parallel to faker, yeah he can play almost every champ/agent, but idt forsaken needs more tournament wins to be considered the goat

not as tactically sound, impressive in terms of creative midrounding/set util, but the game is like cheap but satisfying clips/gunplay
