respect. NRG is a great team, but single elimination is hard. loud was better today. I'm happy to see loud winning, but i honestly wish they could both classify to playoffs

please, do it. I'm waiting

NRG deserve respect. they are great, they deserved going to playoffs, but single elimination is hard and they had to face the only team that is better than them. nt NRG. respect

afaik its from cs not ufc

hopium

GOAT

yes. op doesn't know what he is talking about

it isn't. split used to be the worst loud map. last year, they almost lost (went to OT) to one of the weakest Brazilian teams on vct br

he is

tiltando as lendas gringos Edition

stax is so lovable

you won't be able to since c9 will be eliminated by PRX on the first match. he will only lose to forsaken and jingg

i think yay is pretty great and will still be a top player after the end of chamber meta, but it still won't be enough to carry clown 9

so what you are saying is that this man struggles mechanically?

lol

between 1 and 2 daily too. but rarely I'm too depressed and end up skipping.id say between 6 and 12 weekly

the doubt about cloud 9 will linger for a while since c9 will be eliminated by PRX after the first match in sao paulo

hopium

gg ez for PRX

mine is: C9 will lose to PRX and be eliminated on the first match

i don't believe sacy and pancada would have stayed in loud even if they haven't close with sentinels

ok It was larischz. I'm sad

a lot of brazilian players, casters and staff are posting about being sad that someone died, but nobody is naming who died.
from the infos i gathered: it's a female player, a manita (idk from which country) that played in brazil.
we also know it's not bastarda.

Romi, consu, kalita, larischz, Jules are some of the players that i recall playing GC BR.

who died? I'm getting anxious

I've seen my country win world cup twice in my lifetime and I'm pretty positive I'll be able to celebrate our hexachampionship before I die. about about you?

no problem

basically, Kru and folkus could tie in series wins and were playing against each other. 2 other teams of the group had already made into playoffs while Kru and fokus were trying to get the last spot.

on map 2, tixinha - a Brazilian caster who is streaming RB home ground watch party - asked RB's production about the tiebreaker and a RB member said it was head to head, meaning who'd win the series would also guarantee the last playoff spot. kru wins and they are said they are in the playoffs, the players even tweeted celebrating

but then, they were told that they were out of playoffs because fokus had won more rounds (Kru tweeted saying it was map wons, but IIRC they were tied in maps, but fokus had won 3 more rounds. I'm not sure)

well, i don't know what happened, but a couple of hours later, RB came around and reverted their last decision, saying once again that kru made it into playoffs and fokus were out. kru said it was a "rollercoaster of emotions" https://twitter.com/kruesports/status/1601381422664536065?s=46&t=H3PWVYsfeBJRd2oU5HHJ3A

fokus said they were kicked out on the middle of the night https://twitter.com/fokusvalorant/status/1601531054715592705?s=46&t=H3PWVYsfeBJRd2oU5HHJ3A

it's a heartbreaking, fucked up, easily avoidable situation if RB were more organized and familiar with their own rulebook

IMO, since apparently the tiebreaker rule always was h2h win, it's fair, but the situation is super fucked up, the players probably didn't rest as much because all of this, less time to prepare for them and for liquid, that was probably pretty confused about who they would play against today.

besides that, the communication was weird and a lot of fans are saying fokus was robbed etc. i don't blame them, i don't think everyone knows that they stated previously of the end of the game that the tiebreake was h2h and it must feel bad for who was rooting for fokus.

ETA: I just saw a Dexerto's reporter tweet about it. interesting thread https://twitter.com/dickymclaughlin/status/1601697638151507968?s=46&t=IQgs6et4lj5WcgqCEZxa0Q

agreed, i was so sad to see baddyG go. he is franchise material

the tournament is nice, but the whole kru/folkus going or not to playoffs situation was fucked up

srsly? i like destrian, but vakk is a monster. i don't understand

i thought bonecold was IGLing

stellar is looking strong, in really enjoying his performance as IGL and individually/mechanically

xand always has been great. his entry is super strong, but this year he was IGLing and I feel like this was anchoring him down

https://voca.ro/1hjkWVwYddch

i recorded it for you https://voca.ro/1hjkWVwYddch

what did you say? i keep refreshing but it's skill kru

before the end of the match, tixinha (Brazilian caster who is doing watch party of the tournament) asked the red bull's organization about tiebreaker criteria. they said it was h2h. after the end of the game, they decided to switch. im so sad

Kru got robbed

olha, por um lado eu penso que o silentz deveria mesmo ser o duelista, mas aí eu lembro que a alternativa é botar o jonn de flex e percebi que não tem boa opção aí, a não ser dropar o jonn. credo, a gente não merece ver aquele kayo preguiçoso dele

see you there, trembo

surely it gets harder than this?

best gc champions moment

whats going on? why the delay?

mimi and daiki

e foi

weak bait (for brazilians at least)

eu não tô muito otimista sobre a TL, pra ser sincera. eu acho que a TL é mais estudada lá fora, por já ser favorita faz tempo, mas tbm acho que elas vão ter um desempenho melhor do que a b4 teria. elas têm um repertório maior

eta: ainda assim vou torcer demais para elas

i was rooting for juw too but firepower plays really weird

i don't really follow LAN GC and tbh i never watched firepower play before, but their game is weird. they seem to throw advantage and overheat, over extended and play extremely aggressive when there is no need. i find their play style kinda chaotic and really weird. Kru is clearly superior

I'm not on the loop on the container as a stage story but at least I'm not missing the game. ty manito <3

nothing so far or i am watching on the wrong channel? https://www.twitch.tv/tntsportsar

i tried both transmissions linked on the match page on vlrgg but one is offline, the other one is broadcasting an interview

I'm pretty sure he decided to take a break after not getting signed for a franchise team, but that's ok

muita panelagem e pouco profissionalismo

weak bait Leorge
