I think they care too much about consistency to the point where it hurts them. Stun standardization was never necessary, neither were ini cooldowns when sentis have 8 unique cooldowns and controllers are unique as well. like why? this wasn't done well imo
as for Viper, I just think any passive recharging ability should not exist. It breaks the game, the same way Neon breaks the game is the same way Viper does fundementally, and i'm surprised it took two neon metas for people to still not understand it's her passive recharge that makes her inherently broken.
Sova and Fade have their own problems of being the only viable recon agents despite there being 4 in the game... Gekko and Skye just aren't that great recon wise and flashes already are provided by your superior omen or phoenix. All the more reason to nerf omen and phoenix. I think if RIot didn't release an agent all year but instead rebalanced every class, the game would be about a million times better. Can anyone tell me why the Astra stun has both a longer cooldown than a breach stun (or any ini cooldowns for that matter) AND also has the same stun time as a Neon stun, despite having to predict where your enemy will be, place a star and stun it vs. insta stunning off of any noise? What makes the rewards the same?
but I kind of agree that lurking smart IS lurking less in some cases, some rounds you should just not lurk and go with the pack to insert, and depending on character you can choose to play stall (vyse/kj), or backstab (cypher/kj) in your post-plant. So in most rounds it's closer to 8/12 rounds you would start alone or at any point in the round aggress space alone.
eh. Sometimes lurking smart is not lurking at all. At the point where you made enough presence to make the enemy believe your tendency is lurking every round, you should throw a curveball or two. Lurk in a different area, hit the site with your team and backstab when your team gets bomb down, just 5 hit and make your opponents respect your lurk with your utility. There's many more ways to play your lurk without truly lurking. Hitting sites with your teammates allow for inserting yourself in the main if you get stalled while they go elsewhere. Without a reclear you haven't lurked the whole round but just kept space. Either way, your lurk is a 2/3 of your rounds-ish kind of play, it should be regular but not almost guaranteed, that's how you get punished and lose your team a round on the spot. Trust me, there's plenty of rounds I lose from overstaying my welcome on an extremity, getting ulted or util dumped and punished, and my team is forced to hit site and play against a stacked retake or a stacked site with no extra space on an extremity.
At least Sage/Chamber is a archetype that starts to pick up in play 😔 otherwise I probably wouldn't compete until the next champs patch
except at the high level where everyone is bored and losing passion because every game it's the same shit. As a competitor it's one of the most boring metas where neon phoenix sova omen +1 is a viable comp on every map. There's no problem solving to do with playing different comps anymore, shit just kind of sucks. I see 2 of Neon Yoru Pheonix, 1 of Sova/Fade, Omen, and +1 depending on the map, EVERY map except Lotus, where it's equally stale. It's so dull.
Just nerf Omen neon and phoenix and the game is ten times more fun to watch and play
I personally use the sob emoji, but using all caps can make LOL or LMAO sound more intensely funny instead of sarcastic. Some people use the skull emoji as well
Aspas' 82. LEV by all means played worse but aspas dropped a billion so it didn't matter. He only got 82 because he saw the future and respected Bam's 83
nah they're just a life gamer CLEARLY. Elfonaashelf will make it big af tho
omg is that THE Tenax Series 7 winner Elf on aa shelf?!??!
can i delete KOI again just because i want to
100% agree, the only real fluke in my mind is acend 2021, maybe T1 Bangkok but honestly nobody was any good at the start of 2025 because tejo murdered genuinely everything that made valorant valorant. T1 in my opinion were a result of everyone choking to them rather than truly dominating the enemy, but other than these specific cases every other win was deserved
genuinely one of the greatest esports finals ive watched, only LOCK//IN rivals the cinema I just saw
not 100% back but they are regaining form. I don't think they'll be the same top contenders they were before but they aren't at their worst anymore
another fleshlight L take you have no idea how much passion it takes to play at the highest level
better than not having the lettuce wrap tho 🤷♀️at least GE is an indian org even if indian talent has no place in tier 1 at the moment barring a few great players
tejo wasn't a flex character in his prime
ohhh VLR champs points are just wrong. Got it
wait isn't LEV qualified no matter what? no team can get the same amount or more points as LEV without making top 2 and qualifying to champs
Bronstantinople vs. The Istanbulls
address the elephant in the room
I'm working on a video on default sage spreading misinfo so maybe in the coming week you'll end up seeing it lol
Ngl I do like it when they make changes to agents during this time but I'd much rather see them try their hand at buffing other agents during this time instead of nerfing during the tourney and leaving every team scrambling for something new. That way teams that want something new get it and teams that don't want that don't need to change something. Nerfs should come right after big events and before regional matches start again.
If meiy had a team that averages 1.00 rating with good util understanding and general team Chem it would be possible but for guys like him and primmie it's not realistic without English
other way around, GC doesn't suffer from a mechanical problem we're just a little dumb over here (so a coaching issue, which is another problem in its own right...).
esports is an entirely different thing, there's not many women who are invested in getting really good and rather are just having fun, and even less who are in high elo and want to compete or have the time to. I know some personally who are good at the game but just don't have drive to compete, and when things are already skewed for nb/women, it makes it much worse off for the GC scene. On to of that, the GC scene is having problems with personalities and people on their own, and there's no reason for some women to compete in those scenes over tier 3, dreaming of tier 2 and skipping GC entirely.
yeah generally. It applies to every sport because if you're taking from a much smaller pool of people, you're not going to get as much star talent. (gaming/sports is generally dominated by men, especially esports)
Honestly it's just that they need to work on their map pool. I'm happy they bombed because they definitely need the time to figure out what they want to do on Haven, Abyss, Ascent. I think if they took a day or two off practice and then put focus on what made them so good (good spacing and communication on top of their aim), they can regain their momentum and regain focus on patching their weaker maps while strengthening the already stronger ones on comms and spacing alone.
I think the whole point is that Reyna prevents you from playing the game at times
"They don't deserve to go btw" but loud apparently does LMFAO
I think if I was big into anti meta maybe. But some of these comps are just... wow. And the not calling any timeouts against drx... and the tweets about saving it for next year while FS still had a good chance at playoffs and champs... none of that interests me if I'm an org owner. It doesn't feel like a winning culture.
nAts viper molly to deny plant and win round on Bind B site from A side CT spawn
Yeah I mean maybe they're like 10x cheaper than going to a Knicks game tho
I mean cloud9 was also like that no? 2023 failed superteam, 2024 pretty okay despite the crazy roster moves, 2025/6...
https://youtu.be/1mI5PzmzhwI their views on youtube are looking like EG LMFAO
100% agree. You better be watching me in swiss next year.
Honestly wish that these tier two teams were all eligible to play at champs, I would be much more excited to see kozzy and kachoww in champs than anything else
Is anyone going to take a chance on sonofcar next year? Swear the guy has been next up forever. Hopefully an EMEA team takes him if no one else will
