I'm a fan of NRG but this enitre stage is just fucked for them and I doubt they'll make playoffs, especially with how they're playing.

OVR and PDA by 3ee

I hope this isn't a permanent thing. No hate towards Estrella, he played good today but BeYn is just BeYn.

Termi can't let us have anything

If they move BeYn to the academy roster istg bro...

Brought him in, dropped him, brought him back last minute, and potentially demoting him.

Diffed who? Mada just destroyed h0v0c and Furia

Better yet, bro got diffed by all of NRG besides Ethan only by 1 kill LOOOOL

Same, he was literally getting passed around on every role then tried his best to fill in the biggest shoes possible.

They looked better than they did during kickoff which is good progress, slow but a good start. Some of the players still seem shaky playing on different agents outside of their normal agent pool, but collectively as a team they look like potential candidates for that 3rd spot at Toronto.

It's all good.

That just means they're consistently top 5-6th in the world.

Yeah but Flashback on the Neon was very questionable, like he went 0-7 before he started to heat up. It worked out in the end so it's whatever.

I was ready to accept a 13-0 tbh, like this comp just doesn't make sense on paper.

They're just creating more problems...

At this point, just 13-0 already

We might be cooked bro...

Who knows tbh, but I think it was best for both parties. I saw someone say in another thread that Verno doesn't have to "that guy" and I agree.

He doesn't need to be a "star player" but needs to be a "support player" and being on MIBR allows him to do that. NRG bringing in brawk allows for the team to have 1 star player instead of 2 clashing against each other.

How tf does Xeppaa turn into Thanos against NRG and then proceeds to play average after?

Definitely a questionable change and sucks to see he played so little matches.

I would be lying if I said I wasn't butt-hurt over DRX's loss against T1, that I will admit, but I am glad T1 were able to win it all.

Considering who they were matched up against in round 1 of Swiss Stage, not too many people really had them making playoffs, and even in playoffs, people had them bombing out. They made a crazy lower-bracket run and won, that's an underdog story.

They've been teammates for so long and it really is unfortunate they never won as VS or DRX, but seeing them win together as teammates again is a win-win for me.

From "VAMOS!!", to kissing his mouse, to now lifting a trophy. He and BuZz got the good ending

Bunch of frauds, they doubted them but they said fuck you and proved them tf wrong. Also, I know TMV is soooooooo mad at T1 winning LOL, stay mad.

Stop being so butt-heart and ignorant, take the loss and move on.

This is why they were the best team in Korea. Now they're the best in the world.

haha lol

I'm sad they couldn't win under DRX but I'm so happy for them, they truly deserve the win.

Wrong timeline buddy

wtfwtfwtfwtfwtfwtfwtfwtf

I am actively doing this while my hands are shaking

I'd be stressing and completely burnt out.

BUZZZZLIGHTTTTT

WTFFFFFFFF

Bro, my heart can't take ts

That deserves a kiss on the mouse.

I feel like it is working because it is somewhat iso-adjacent, so Meteor just aim diffs.

Ok wtf.

The world doesn't revolve around you bro.

Edit: No way you're complaining about Asia holding 4 events when EMEA has held more than 5.

Most likely is, this guy is just saying stupid shit calling the crowd, racist.

You just can't have either or when it comes to people who love to complain about every little thing.

Great thing PRX aren't here, they would have wasted a spot

Yeah bro, if PRX were here it would infinitely better!

I would say both teams equally deserve the trophy, Stax and BuZz have been wanting a trophy since VS while The Guard core coming from Tier 2 to potential Masters Winners. GL to the both of them.

When did they say they don't respect Muslim's beliefs? You do realize they're not going to cater to any specific group of people just because YOU, yourself have a problem with a character IN A VIDEO GAME.

I think they're mad because Gentle Mates is getting relegated soon and won't see VCT probably ever again lol.

Who will win, a meteor or one singular leaf?

I mean, although they weren't technically the best team coming into the tournament, Platchat was completely underrating them and DRX before the tournament started. Collectively as a region, they placed Pacific at the bottom of their list of teams based on how good they're gonna do. And look at them now, T1 are making those frauds eat their words.

I wouldn't really say this is a "hot" take but I do think they have a lot of potential (especially Hyunmin and free1ng), both the players individually and collectively as a team. However, both teams will likely be at the top of Pacific for a while.

( I am obviously biased so take what I say with a grain of salt)

I think they keep trying to force new things and hope it works out. Idk why couldn't just play their original comps prior to Bangkok.

When was the last time Talon beat DRX in Kickoff, Stage 1 and 2???

Talon got first-rounded at Champs without even winning a single map 😂

I don't think they need to make any roster changes this early into the season or a while for that matter (could just be cope but idk atp). It's clear that they still need time to work out strats and refine the mistakes they seem to sadly and continuously make.
