sometimes the toxicity can get so stupid that it becomes funny tho
we developed so many inside jokes here it's amusing to think the pros know about them

mine is in 10 days, guess I'll make a thread about it then haha

I am the nicest, and I only spread love and friendship.

Ah yes, Turkey, my favorite city

chess

I know BR doesn't beat KR but it was necessary so that the pentagram would close simetrically.

yup, but that's why I said duelist should gain space through mobility imo. controllers also gain space, but through smokes, and phoenix's wall is more like a smoke/weak viper wall.
I just had an idea, what if the path of his wall curved according to his movement? (but with some delay so he couldn't just be sprayed through). He could carve his way into a sight making a maze of fire. Maybe that would be too stupid, but maybe it could work.

MS paint. Let me get home and I'll make it again for you.

he's a tier 3 sub to valorant twitch channel so he can watch the matches ahead of time :)

there's absolutely NO WAY that Optic loses this game. Yay is just TOO good. LOUD don't stand a chance.

I've made a pentagram of 5 regions with the mechanics of rock paper scissor lizard spock yesterday.

swearing is not allowed in vlr? it's just a pun with the team's acronym

5 ult orb is kinda ridiculous, at this point it's almost a regular ability. But I get your point, because it's the only part of his kit that fits the duelist role.

imo what phoenix lacks as a duelist is the ability to take space through mobility.
Jett does it with dash and updraft
Raze does it with satchels
Neon has her sprinting, Reyna has her dismiss and Yoru his TP, despite those three not doing it as successfully as Jett and Raze.

lmao whole this thread was transformed into food wars

New York Fuck U

oh no I didn't even saw that haha
I thought you meant dick pics

vampetas?

u guys are way too curious

sacy and aspas stood out on these two matches in iceland but the other players might stand out instead in the next games.

yeah but emea is like a superregion joining eu, cis, turkey, middle east and africa.
When they say that they're probably considering the situation if those regions weren't joined, as it's the case in csgo for example

I thought valorant aim had a skill ceiling :((((

I love Team Liquid:DRX!

keznit is not even argentinian kkkkkkk

turkish anthem is one my favorites along with kazakh and brazilian (but the latter I'm biased of course haha)

dont stop believing my friend
korkma sönmez...

no way you're being serious this time

has anyone told him that saadhak way playing as vampetaak while the roster was still called pancada e amigos? haha

idk man in other games the loud fans are very... loud

dont jinggg it

a era do meddo acabou

the final boss

cool game

is really isn't

why the topic is appearing just now then lmao

edit: guys I know people have been saying this for a long time, but it's no coincidence that after na and emea start to lose suddenly there are 50 threads about it here

my counterpoint https://www.vlr.gg/89986/skill-ceiling-allegations

my thread kinda justifies that man https://www.vlr.gg/89986/skill-ceiling-allegations

spin quotation marks

didn't watch cause I like capybaras

loud and zeta beat liquid 2-1, so they're a little better than liquid right now.
liquid barely beat xerxia, so they're around the same level.
xerxia 2-0 optic, so liquid is way better than optic.
optic 2-0 xerxia, so liquid is way better than liquid.
therefore, zeta would probably sweep zeta.
...

ah that's true, that doesn't fall into the contradiction directly.
but what seems to be the case is that while cs is all about perfecting the fundamentals, valorant is about adaptability and creativity, teams can't depend on metas to be good. Now if that is a good thing or not it's up to you.

now that many upsets from "minor regions" happened, people are trying to justify it saying valorant has reached a skill ceiling. What I find interesting is that this argument is only used to talk about skill in terms of mechanics. But weren't "minor regions" criticized for being "all aim no brain" all along? So if they have catch up, it shouldn't be about aim, but about strats. But this narrative is being constructed that if valorant had a higher skill ceiling that wouldn't happen, which implies major regions are better just because of aim. It sounds very contradictory.
What actually is the case is that valorant have a lower skill ceiling in cs mechanics like spraying, but it compensates with a shit ton of stuff, from raze and jett movement to utilities setups and a shit ton of variables that makes the possible tactics so complex that the ceiling might actually be unreachable.

letsgo.
