mf was tryna to be fair to everyone
Idk why, and honestly there is no reason to actually feel this way. But I think DRX and Gen G will gap the competition.
DRX 3 - 1 TBD
GROUP A:
Fnatic 2 - 0 BLG
DRX 2 - 1 KRU
Winner’s: Fnatic 2 - 1 DRX
Elimination: BLG 2 - 1 KRU
Decider: DRX 2 - 0 BLG
GROUP B:
Gen G 2 - 1 Sentinels
FPX 2 - 0 Team Heretics
Winner’s: FPX 2 - 1 Gen G
Elimination: Sentinels 2 - 1 Team Heretics
Decider: Gen G 2 - 1 Sentinels
GROUP C:
Leviatan 2 - 0 Talon
Vitality 2 - 1 Trace
Winner’s: Leviatan 2 - 1 Vitality
Elimination: Trace 2 - 1 Talon
Decider: Vitality 2 - 1 Trace
GROUP D:
EDward Gaming 2 - 0 FUT
G2 2 - 1 PRX
Winner’s: G2 2 - 1 EDward Gaming
Elimination: PRX 2 - 1 FUT
Decider: EDward Gaming 2 - 1 PRX
Since the top 8 isn’t set obviously. let the AI randomize the Knockout Stage and predict the winner
1st DRX
2nd Fnatic
3rd G2
4th EDward Gaming
5th-6th FPX
5th-6th Gen G
7th-8th Vitality
7th-8th Leviatan
In playoff it had DRX beating everyone 2-1 and 3-2 in the Grand Final lol, i hope
I like this. But Acend was different because DRX had like 2 roster changes and 6 roles changes throughout the year
Gen G did great, and I won’t straight up lie and say DRX are better than them rn.
But… i just remembered that Gen G did also have a double map ban advantage, one of the maps being sunset, a map that DRX beat Gen G on in upper finals.
Just saying, don’t think that this run was just a fluke, this team is the real deal
they weren’t underperforming tho
that’s when looking at stats, however, they that’s not you see when they were in game. DRX is a team that looks for contact and trades a lot especially on attack. They don’t mind losing a player as long as they trade him. This is a common trait of old DRX. If you look at a lot of games from the past, you will see that they lose that fk/fdbattle a lot. There was a guy that created a spreadsheet of the best teams when it comes to trading and DRX were the best at it
please win champs
I know you guys have it in you
If you can go from losing dominantly to Gen G and PRX
to dropping your igl and key member of the core for 3+ years
Then putting all the pressure of igling on a 22 year old that was the 2nd youngest on the team last year.
And then get dramatically worse and even lose a match to RRQ(they aren’t bad but it’s the only non-PRX/Gen G team they lost to all year) and then barely squeeze out a win against talon and then dropping a map to DFM(i didn’t think they were trying)
… To beating PRX for the first time in 400 days and giving gen g a run for their money
Then I know if you keep improving at this rate, you can win champs
go to sleep, you’ve been awake like 18+ hours now, ik ur tired
I think if you give DRX a little more time to solidify themselves a their team play, BeYn will shine. He had an insane map against gen g map 2 of upper finals so he definitely has it in him. Also, he’s being purposefully(tactically) baited a lot for the sake of the team.
????? i’m guessing you don’t watch FUT.
Their whole thing is that they play weird comps and their team play is inconsistent but they get by because of aim
that same playstyle won them the series against PRX tho
That’s literally his playstyle, when it works everyone praises him, when it doesn’t, everyone clowns on him. But its his playstyle nonetheless
Gen G won the fk/fd battle 61 to 38.
Important takeaway is that DRX came away from this match knowing exactly what they need to improve on as a team.
They did well and ended only having a -4 round differential despite the match ending 1-3
Also, this might be cope, but all 5 Gen G players were won today, hopefully, just maybe, it could have been different if one of them had an off day. That’s the case about half the time in gen g games but they win anyways since the others would just carry.
idk, limited preparation(?)
We just came off a series against PRX, didn’t have much time.
His util is fine, all that is needed is confidence and that will only increase in time
Honestly, we could all point at round 12 as the reason DRX lost, but Gen G are known for those moments. We should lowkey focus on the fact DRX lost double pistol and double bonus
bro, the game has evolved, this current gen g would beat any team in 2022 easily. Even sliggy said that watching China gives him flashbacks of vct 2022.
Not a good stat
In valorant, a clutch is a 1v2+and most of DRX’s clutches if not all were very winnable, you just had to hit ur shots which they can do, however, so many rounds, 2 or 3 gen g players get out of impossible situations
Gen G is a pretty solid icebox team. They dominated PRX on it. But hopefully DRX picked it for a good reason.
This is literally what Gen G do, they are all clutch masters, every time.
that must be 4 clutches by gen g right. Everything is so close
Watch the korean stream if you want to hear more crowd noise. I like the crowd but i also don’t understand what the casters are saying so i don’t watch it much
Gen G are so good under pressure man… anyways let’s keep going
Usually i would post more in games but im so nervous rn.
I felt like that half should have been more dominant for us, and 8-4 or more, but ig gen g did win pistol so we did well to bring it back.
What i will say is i really hope we win pistol, that would give me hope of winning the match
the molly missed.
They was supposed to be a molly on bomb, but it either missed or got body blocked or sum
he went from duelist to flex to initiator in the span of 6 months.
I really don’t know, bc Leo is deadass the best initiator in the world imo, and Fnatic are playing well with hiro, but who knows if this resurgence is bc of hiro, or just Fnatic finally locking in and getting it right
I saw a tweet saying their gonna have a kpop group at champs, and the tweet banged so maybe??
I forgot the group name tho
i think they can atleast dominate pacific. IMO when all the teams play to their best or their normal. Korea maybe has 3 out of the top 4 teams and definitely 3/6
they should be, also vitality should be same tier or higher than Heretics. It’s not even the fact that Vitality beat them twice. It’s the fact that Heretics got destroyed on sunset, which was supposed to be their best map. They also got destroyed on lotus, to a team that isn’t that good on lotus. Unless they were completely tanking, i’m not seeing a single elite map in their pool
I may be completely off but I think each region might be completely even. China and pacific are still growing, while americas and EMEA seems to be a plateau. Each region
Both Americas and EMEA are quite capable and good at fps games.
China completely dominates another fps game, maybe if crossfire dies in china, all of their pros will transfer over to val(?)
Korea not so much in fps but it looks like they are gonna be really good in val.
Other countries in APAC don’t really give me much hope when it comes to young talent but there is a possibility that other they steadily grow to become a strong force
The thing is about Gen G, is that they don’t really innovate when it comes to strats. It their in-game adaptations and aim diffing that makes them dominant. Pretty much like Fnatic last year, they find what works and abuse it until they can’t anymore, only difference is, Gen G has a fragging igl so thats 1 more person to really worry about
Lock/in Chronicle was important to his team. 1.12 rating with 203 acs is elite despite you judgement of the conpetition.
Also, an important thing to consider was how easily sacy was replaced. You can def argue that individuallly Cauanzin was better by far in 2023 and played like their 3rd best player. Not saying that tuyz was bad, but had LOUD kept Pancada, 2023 would probably look a lot different
he’s isn’t “lacking” they are close in a achievements but chronicle didn’t really have a bad year. You could say 2022 was a bad year but his team had a few non-valorant issues. Also chronicle has a tournament MVP which sacy lacks. His stats are also miles better
chronicle has more longevity tho, might seem odd to say considering sacy won a masters this year and chronicle didn’t but i feel it’s long gone the day where sacy can take over maps consistently with both fragging and utility, while i believe chroncle has been doing that since 2021
