I see what you're trying to say but holy fucking overreaction. Brother it has been the first round of the tournament. And in Gen.G's case they aren't dominating if they're losing to TH. Gen.G in LoL wouldn't be losing to G2 (This year)

imo their IB hasn't looked that clean all year, they beat LEV and PRX on it but even those looked shaky

Hot take but i'm not counting anyone out until i see people eliminated, there has been way too many upsets in this game

I can't tell if bro is celebrating or having a breakdown behind the screen right now, every reply of his reads so butthurt LMAO

True but VP is also a team that will wait until 15 seconds left to execute. valorant fans would have a breakdown if they had to watch that every round

in Americas challengers league, where's the correlation? was that supposed to be a comeback?

Its been 1 map

I hope one day valorant gets a team like current day VP in CS, their ADHD wouldn't let them get through the rounds

the "It's just map 1" crowd when its a team they're rooting against

Damn you've had this one bottled up all year huh? 10+ messages about ameriacs in 1 hour

Did you even know he was german before he changed his flag?

MY ASCENSION GOAT

Aspas has been stunning players for the last 3 years

agreed

Sorry i guess SEN beating TH and KC for them to get shit on by APAC wasn't directly them eliminating them so i guess that doesn't matter. Also its ironic how suddenly historic matchups don't matter when they aren't in EMEA's favor

I really don't think they're as bad as people are making them out to be right now, especially the people saying they're the WORST team at the tournament. They've literally only lost to Gen.G, and while they are definitely chokers saying they're worse than some of these other teams for losing to the team you guys were saying will be the best team in valorant after this tournament makes no real sense

I wonder why you only choose shanghai to talk about and why you only showed a couple of matches

I posted this before the match ended

and every winner of the previous tournament always goes on to finish 2nd-4th at champions

I haven't actually played on the map yet, is it as cancerous to play as it looks

I heard bald players are able to redirect the stage lighting on their heads to blind opponents . Its an advantage that should be bannable

never ask a SEN fan about 2022

wildest part is i think either of those 3 teams are capable of an upset

we'll have to hope aspas can give meteor PTSD or some shit bro

Damn bro i had a very similar story, became a SEN fan because they were my favorite apex team going into the first ALGS season, back when zombs was playing, now i can't say i'm the biggest fan of SEN valorant, but they're definitely one of my favorite teams

see thats a fair point, but i think it is worth mentioning G2 have beat TH twice before, ofc they shit the bed during the BO5 but it atleast tells us they can compete against these teams. LEV have a lot more to prove but given the talent on the roster if they can get some cohesion i think they're a contender

I've kinda seen people pretend like G2 aren't even there, and when they're brought up people act like they haven't looked extremely competitive against the top teams

Phrasing error

I phrased improperly, i was trying to imply this was a weaker version of PRX

11-2

I do genuinely want to know why people think so low of these teams, G2 performed damn well majority of the year and LEV while struggling at Shanghai look like they've found footing. And while it was a weaker version of them, G2 did just 2-0 PRX. I'm just curious as to what makes people so unsure of their performance

I'd say almost any team tbh, anytime anyone loses 99% of people will act like that team is completely fucked, and when people say "It's just one bad game" people tend to say its cope

Why do i feel like this logic only applies to certain teams and not others.

What is G2 and LEV hate based on..? Clearly Shanghai results don't matter otherwise you guys wouldn't shit on G2 so much. So what are we basing G2 and LEV off of? Both teams have improved a lot over the year and look like they're in their strongest forms

TSM 2-1

Both LEV and G2 looked great but people have weird stigmas against both of those teams

Watching good valorant and rooting for my favorite teams or participating in a fictional region war

ok lmao blinded by your hate boner ig

Trexx, CeNder and Sayf. My favorite LAN rookies

So true, they were top 3 at that event and lost 1 match during split 2, then dominated PRX on the opener but none of that really matters

Been hearing this since swiss stage of shanghai btw

Question is if hypothetically they and SEN make GFs and SEN wins would that make SEN the best team in the world for having 3 titles total and 2 in the same year (1 being champions) or would that make Gen G the best team because they were top 2 minimum every event?

looking at this site leading to the tournament you'd think they bombed in group stages or smth

Why were people doubting G2 coming into the tournament? They were literally top 3 at shanghai and dominated split 2

LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

free this man!!

no one swinging melee range with op = boring
Gotta remember the community valorant has

Tbh PRX will never win a trophy if they dont stop relying on just shooting better

bro what? If you're talking about Fnatic i don't think people were saying they were boring because they were methodical, i'm pretty sure people thought they were boring because they were unbeatable

Correct
