i could see any team going up or down 1 spot but i think this will be extremely close to how it actually is for kickoff

2024 vitality was better than 2025 vitality

heat could replace many tbh easily could go to loud, furia, kru if any have poor results in kickoff

heat would actually be a 10/10 sub like the roles would work perfectly and heat would get a chance to put himself back in the spotlight like on kru

that will probs be me next year

just on vacation lol merry christmas to u too

my first time being abroad for christmas

i love everything about china besides the human rights violations

next time

erm that wasnt an option buddy

corrode is a good map

it was laz with crow mid round help

zekken

glacier doubter 😭

ssees igl'd that team to playoffs at least like yeah hes a fragging liability but that team with joxjo would be the worst team in pacific

JoXJo is a terrorist igl bro you do NOT want him in tier 1

crws will be a good coach but he is still more then capable to still play especially with the level of calling he reached last year the only reason he's coaching is because of riots mishandling of the talon situation

dont get me started on crws coaching well boaster is still playing

yeah im surprised he didn't get the forced to igl cuz of age treatment he just straight up couldn't get a team playing

i believe so

NiSMO as hc

thoughts on this roster? can they make champs?

gyen?? he has a lot of potential

i dont think josh is a problem but i feel like something internally has changed on that team they would never have been doing this a year ago. and babybay to me is a none issue we could have won with icy and hes a lot better than icy

i mean g2 is still just fundamentally better than every team in americas but i miss when we were innovative like i genuinely cant remember the last time i was impressed by a unique g2 comp theory

at the start of the off season they said they were going to look at new coaches and quickly dropped jinboong but its december and i haven't heard anything other then foxy9 trial rumors. does anyone know what changes dfm made?

joshrt been pissing me off recently with these terrorist comps how are we still playing breach??

considering hes not willing to relocate and he is getting trials and losing them and even still got an offer from furia but he declined its like hes begging for a team but when they come knocking he declines so if he quits he quits atp. i feel like this is a babyj situation where he feels like he can just stream and get a good opportunity eventually but he should just pick a team he thinks he can show his skill off the best on or has the highest chance of winning and go show it instead of letting the leviatan and nrg performance sit in everyones mind

glacier or setrod

its
cned
seven
ninja
qpert
al0rante

with leader hc

what percentage we giving them for making a international this year?

bro how did you think veto was weak?? hes just hard to play whoever has best implement of him is winning kickoff imo

disappeared overnight i guess

consistently the best teams of the year have peaked at the 2nd masters (true for all years gambit, fpx, fnatic, geng, prx) and generally the 16 teams at champs will have weaker teams qualifying which leads to sloppier games thats what im talking about

blud said the loss of waituu was gonna effect the team 😭✌️✌️

when he ruined his rep after the gx situation

nah i miss this sym
https://www.vlr.gg/340949/tsm-vs-yfp-gaming-challengers-league-2024-north-america-stage-1-ro12

i do think he has tier 1 potential like he was really good in 2024 the 2nd best tier 2 duelist imo but i dont think hes very coachable and thats why he hasnt been picked up

any avid valorant watcher knows a masters and champs are pretty equivalent in terms of how hard they are to win and often i find the 2nd masters has the highest level of play across all the events in the year most teams are burnt out by champs and the games end up being sloppy

i just think the esport is too young to really heavily weigh trophies like all of the 2021 and 2022 trophies are fraudulent to me i would never use that to justify players being better bc of a 2021 trophy.

as the esport reaches 10 years i think it will change a lot and i think the season needs to be restructured in someway to have champions consistently be the hardest event for it to have the same weight as league.

i dont think full sense will be that good in kickoff just because of all the drama and lack of practice plus jitboys picking up igl i think will take a bit of time to get back to where they were

historically that's probably what i should have went with but i have them going 3-0 and actually performing in kickoff for once

yeah its by far the most competitive region but the best teams are genuinely scary asf on paper

agreed but if fnatic are shit im fucked

i kinda feel like nongshim could do really well in this meta with xcross and the role swap of francis

i feel like anyone could win anything besides ts

lol u wish 😭✌️✌️✌️✌️

nah they said in the video they are keeping the NRG branding
