i have no idea to be honest, it is a nice feeling going into a masters feeling like 7/8 teams have at least a small chance to win

I think considering Icebox was their perma veto it looked quite decent. Not really good but its a map they can work on and get potentially some wins on. Thier split and lotus looks fantastic. They need to work on their bind to get it back to world class

2021 bandwagon fan then rightfully so I had to suffer 2022-23

this aint it bro

Depends on what is being cooked on Icebox

Insane map from both

if sonofcar was on this NRG team they would win it all

ignore him he is trippin

honestly u might be right about redgar but put some respect on nats.

I jst feel like Fnatic didnt cook anything up for this tourney, hopefully they come back with new ideas

hope SEN are cooking something new on Breeze and maybe saving their Icebox strats like they did with Lotus

future player, needs experience and probably a better team situation

Hope SEN win so I can watch them against NAVI and Fnatic at Madrid

I mean 2023 Tier 2 EU players are going crazy as well maybe its time to credit the scouting by both TH and KC along with other who have picked up T2 players

Legendary Shin moment ruined by production

definitely not anymore

I wouldnt read into this, I remember a post about louds comms last year and it was everyone talking over each other as well. We know that they did not have chemistry issues and performed very well last year

we dont claim this guy

brazilian fan thought he was gonna find people agreeing with him here, fuck that union team

sacy might be back

why do we choose to shit talk other duelists everytime one has a good performance. Just because Zekken just destroyed MIBR doesn't mean Demon1 (who is not even playing rn) is a fraud

no lmao

this looks like a team that can win Champions

nice bait bro

done

I have no idea where I would rank most teams but just wanted to say how awesome it has been to see TH and KOI look good

honestly most of the rounds Lev was winning or close to winning came from Aspas getting a 3k or more. He is not at fault here

Did not disappoint, 5 great matches

?????????????????????

LEV fix is keeping nzr even if C0m is better. The vibes have not been there since Christmas

i guess they thought they were worse on Sunset

in an interview i care about the questions not the outfit

its crazy what a good duelist and elite coaching can do

now this is some slander I can get behind

any OxG players are likely not moving at all with them being heavy contenders with M80

if they draw Loud probably wont make it

maybe the C9 curry memes were true

probably a combination of EG being very underrated and G2 being slightly overrated. Both likely middle of the pack teams

There are 3-4 good teams in Americas. Regardless of who makes it, I feel that the region will be very competitive during Masters

is juicy able to play next season? he is still part of bleed through the affiliate program

their number 1 advantage for kick off was that they already played a lot of Kayo and then this series they didn't play it on maps they used to play the kayo

The 76ers need a player, give Mimi a call

no lmao

I doubt they will pick it after 100T destroyed Lev on it unless they prepared massively for what 100T wants to do on that map. I am still surprised they did not go for bind or pick sunset earlier against Loud

the amount of overreaction I've seen. This team will be in the top half of Americas. The people who were putting them #1 were rightly criticized even before this match. This team is still #4/5 in the region imo

I mean yes that is why I added the second sentence. At minimum salaries, it should be possible to break even with the riot money that comes in even after all the added expenses. Overall it is not really a significant discussion to have now as they are not even top 4 in NA challengers doubt itll be any issue we will actually see arise in the near future

I mean likely they will be able to get away with offering the scholarship as a payment equivalent in these contracts, additionally with the Riot money they could easily pay minimums and pocket the rest

Guys they will adapt with more reps against this level of teams, whether its at the next open qual or next year. This kind of thing takes time. Theyll only get better from these experiences

this a pretty standard take idk

making up shit for rivalries?
